Perhaps it would have helped to read the email. Part of the concern is making sure the drives don't fail and not just throughput. Given that Kingston sells an SATA SSD for $40 that only gets writes at 30mb/s write, and some USB drives might get up to 20mb/s. If I get two drives and put them on different controllers, mirrored, I might get acceptable performance. I may still loose performance, but if my drives last a year longer, I can probably accept it. I'm ok with loosing some performance, but I just don't want it dragging down the system. And if it won't help the drives last longer there's no point.

I do appreciate that ZFS tries to be more careful about sync writes than most filesystems. But I also have users who expect "tar xvf" to complete in a reasonable amount of time, and having the ZIL enabled reduces file creation performance by a factor of ten. ;) From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Jun 26 07:42:00 2011 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0806C1065677 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 07:42:00 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: from email2.allantgroup.com (email2.emsphone.com [199.67.51.116]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A70EA8FC25 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 07:41:59 +0000 (UTC) Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by email2.allantgroup.com (8.14.4/8.14.4) with ESMTP id p5Q7fwoQ086908 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA bits=256 verify=NO) for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 02:41:58 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: from dan.emsphone.com (smmsp@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by dan.emsphone.com (8.14.5/8.14.5) with ESMTP id p5Q7fmWS032523 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA bits=256 verify=NO) for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 02:41:48 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.14.5/8.14.5/Submit) id p5Q7fjAW032492; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 02:41:45 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dan) Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2011 02:41:45 -0500 From: Dan Nelson To: Joshua Isom Message-ID: <20110626074141.GB44024@dan.emsphone.com> References: <4E06180F.7090409@gmail.com> <16AE025C-EA55-45F3-8419-542228CE5AA4@my.gd> <4E06C2D1.4050601@gmail.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <4E06C2D1.4050601@gmail.com> X-OS: FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.21 (2010-09-15) X-Virus-Scanned: clamav-milter 0.97 at email2.allantgroup.com X-Virus-Status: Clean X-Greylist: Sender IP whitelisted, not delayed by milter-greylist-4.2.6 (email2.allantgroup.com [199.67.51.78]); Sun, 26 Jun 2011 02:41:58 -0500 (CDT) X-Scanned-By: MIMEDefang 2.68 on 199.67.51.78 Cc: Damien Fleuriot , "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" Subject: Re: Performance of a USB ZIL for ZFS X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2011 07:42:00 -0000 In the last episode (Jun 26), Joshua Isom said: > On 6/25/2011 9:32 PM, Damien Fleuriot wrote: > > On 25 Jun 2011, at 19:17, Joshua Isom wrote: > >> I was wondering if anyone had tried using a decent USB flash drive for > >> the ZIL.

Those are pretty infrequent themselves, unless you're an NFS server. You'll see a couple syncs per commit on a database server, but compared to the amount of regular reads and writes on your average system, you'll save under 1% of the writes by adding a fast ZIL. And remember, the ZIL is just a write log. Everything that gets written to it will get flushed to disk when zfs writes the next transaction group. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Jun 26 08:17:15 2011 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 775171065673 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 08:17:15 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from rsimmons0@gmail.com) Received: from mail-vx0-f182.google.com (mail-vx0-f182.google.com [209.85.220.182]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 28D788FC20 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 08:17:14 +0000 (UTC) Received: by vxg33 with SMTP id 33so3956909vxg.13 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 01:17:14 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:from:reply-to:to:subject:date:user-agent :references:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type :content-transfer-encoding:message-id; bh=W3Ba3QvLKbhBt5i3P7Usp9fNHPS+Fs5NsQKYqGp7wkc=; b=iEXNHao2tVxa4phSduepDXX7pm8A4l7YfmkVpyYSEhkPCg+e+qAYrFGn4JUnfJqne9 mGxJahMBo5e6AEicnbD+MwYqMOXe/N9LQrLftjKw3H+xj3CU9+awknRWTi0NNpOuoACI /A0oLTIZ77gNGaaxlQ0aTRv+iCECgt3tHR1gY= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=from:reply-to:to:subject:date:user-agent:references:in-reply-to :mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:message-id; b=lQ+7QR9q9bWnq6/H/blRxMxLlk9ptzICJfvU0bAIIFP1XkKFUgrgOQ3RgBJ3AAVdMp TiUFguzN2qGvVM4cBAl9aZmBaAQSgbH7np2Uh2pnWViV1g4R04+Q/lQDF5ygX8PVukmh T7/dr3Q1/crq3YLkvzo+sdpeK5rRqtqk+vGeM= Received: by 10.52.76.74 with SMTP id i10mr6756352vdw.128.1309076233718; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 01:17:13 -0700 (PDT) Received: from skynet.localnet (pool-108-28-47-226.washdc.fios.verizon.net [108.28.47.226]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id o9sm2521937vbz.9.2011.06.26.01.17.12 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Sun, 26 Jun 2011 01:17:13 -0700 (PDT) From: Robert Simmons To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2011 04:17:11 -0400 User-Agent: KMail/1.13.6 (Linux/2.6.38-8-generic; KDE/4.6.4; i686; ; ) References: <4E06180F.7090409@gmail.com> <4E06C2D1.4050601@gmail.com> <20110626074141.GB44024@dan.emsphone.com> In-Reply-To: <20110626074141.GB44024@dan.emsphone.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <201106260417.11482.rsimmons0@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Performance of a USB ZIL for ZFS X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: rsimmons0@gmail.com List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2011 08:17:15 -0000 On 25 Jun 2011, at 19:17, Joshua Isom wrote: > I was wondering if anyone had tried using a decent USB flash drive for > the ZIL.

If you want the ZIL in a separate location it is to cut down on latency rather than "thrashing". See: http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Evil_Tuning_Guide#Disabling_the_ZIL_.28Don.27t.29 If your concern really really is "thrashing" please consider the cost of flash memory vs a hard drive. Replacing a bad hard drive is cheaper.

Some years ago I ran into a similar problem. I ran out of primary partitions (using MBR-speak) and had to move FreeBSD into an extended partition. Here the simple patch I wrote for the FreeBSD boot loader: To update your source use: patch -d /usr/src/sys/boot/i386/libi386/ < boot_loader.diff The FreeBSD loader has since a very long time ago attempted to work with MBR extended partitions but a simple logical error has prevented it from succeeding: How it normally works. ----- | 1 | ----- | 2 | -- ----- | | | | ----- <- | 5 | ----- | | -- ----- | | | | ----- <- | 6 | ----- | | ----- How /boot/loader (incorrectly) works. ----- | 1 | ----- | 2 | -- ----- | | | | ----- <- | 5 | ----- | 6 | -- ----- | | | | ----- <- | 7 | ----- | 8 | ----- It has been a long time since I installed my system but I seem to remember that all that is required is to copy the /boot/loader binary from a patched system onto the newly installed one. (I have included a copy of my /boot/loader at the URL above.) The next challenge is to find a boot manager that will pick up FreeBSD in an extended partition. For myself I use a self patched GRUB. (GRUB also nearly worked out of the box, but had a different problem.) You're welcome to have those patches as well if you need them. Lastly I have the following in my kernel configuration file: include GENERIC ... nooptions GEOM_PART_BSD nooptions GEOM_PART_MBR options GEOM_BSD options GEOM_MBR That is because I am not fond of the new mangled device names, but prefer the old ones. Hope any of this helps.

For updating the base system, you need only copy across everything under /usr/src -- you can then upgrade by building and installing world + kernel. Easiest way to copy that directory tree across is to make a tarball of it. Assuming you have a USB stick mounted at /mnt/usb, then: # cd /usr # tar -Jcvf /mnt/usb/usr-src.tar.xz src Then unmount the usb stick, and mount it on the other host. Extract the files by: # cd /usr # mv src src.old (or rm -rf src if you're feeling over-confident) # tar -xvf /mnt/usb/usr-src.tar.xz How to update your machine by compiling the system sources is well described in the Handbook, and there are instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING too. For updating ports, you can either copy /usr/ports in much the same way -- assuming you've kept all of the distfiles you're going to need still in /usr/ports/distfiles. Or you can create pkg tarballs for any port you have installed on your connected machine, plus pkgs for all of the dependencies. First make sure that everything on your connected machine is up to date: # portsnap fetch update (or csup, or whatever you prefer) # portmaster -a Then make packages of anything you want on the other machine, plus any dependencies thereof: # cd /mnt/usb # pkg_create -b -R foobar-1.2.3 Move the USB stick to the other machine and install the pkg, which will automatically include any dependencies not already installed: # pkg_add /mnt/usb/foobar-1.2.3.tbz This will work equally well for ports you've installed yourself from the ports tree, or for pkgs installed from the FreeBSD ftp servers[*]. It gets slightly tricky if you want to upgrade stuff via pkgs. I believe it should work if you install portmaster on your isolated machine, and then do: -- on the connected machine: # cd /mnt/usb # pkg_create -b -R foobar-1.2.3 (as before) # cp /usr/ports/INDEX-8 /mnt/usb -- move the usb stick over to the isolated machine and do: # cp /mnt/usb/INDEX-8 /usr/ports/INDEX-8 # portmaster -PP --local-packagedir=3D/mnt/usb \ --packages-local foobar-1.2.3 (Not tested -- but if it works the way I think it should, that will update foobar-1.2.3 and anything it depends on to the latest available versions) Cheers, Matthew [*] Verb. Sap. Mixing up stuff installed from a local ports tree and stuff installed from the pkg archives frequently leads to version clashes, wailing and gnashing of teeth. Unless you know exactly what you are doing, it's best to stick exclusively to one or other of those methods. --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate JID: matthew@infracaninophile.co.uk Kent, CT11 9PW --------------enigF6CDEB935C034E8AD81E2872 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.16 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk4Hh+UACgkQ8Mjk52CukIzz9QCfah9f68ROGTry+UMgbTvlLn67 R/cAn173S3rmYp/7dcRRxkkVVxluiEkj =/Xm/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigF6CDEB935C034E8AD81E2872-- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Jun 26 19:59:38 2011 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C51581065670 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 19:59:38 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from lars@larseighner.com) Received: from mail.team1internet.com (mail.team1internet.com [216.110.13.10]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9A7788FC13 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 19:59:38 +0000 (UTC) Received: from larseighner.com (unknown [216.110.13.99]) by mail.team1internet.com (Postfix) with SMTP id ADA0116B4A7; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 14:59:35 -0500 (CDT) Received: by larseighner.com (nbSMTP-1.00) for uid 1001 lars@larseighner.com; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 14:57:52 -0500 (CDT) Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2011 14:57:50 -0500 (CDT) From: Lars Eighner X-X-Sender: lars@noos.6dollardialup.com To: wayne mitchell In-Reply-To: Message-ID: References: User-Agent: Alpine 2.00 (BSF 1167 2008-08-23) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: cvs vs. DVD X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2011 19:59:38 -0000 On Sun, 26 Jun 2011, wayne mitchell wrote: > hey, > be warned, you are dealing with a 'newbie' Be warned, I don't know the official best practices response.

Since you are going from BSD to BSD, you don't have to make ISOs, but it will do no harm if you do (and might even be good for you). In the updated machine go to /usr/src/ and make clean. The official right way, I think is to use backup to make the file you will write to DVD and restore on the netdead machine to recreate /usr/src/ from disc. tar + dd or cp might work. (backup and restore are commands, check them out) Then on the netdead machine do the make buildworld, make kernel, etc. to update the machine's system. The instructions are in /usr/src/UPDATING near the bottom. In /usr/ports/ (master machine) use portsclean -CDP. This should clean out all the working directories and the old versions of packages and distributions which are no longer necessary to recreate the ports you have installed. This is not strictly necessary, but there is no point in carrying over the deadwood. If you have a relatively young installation, on the other hand, this may not save much. Now you can do whatever you did (backup/restore), dd, etc. with the source tree to the ports tree. Then you can update ports on the slave machine, or hold off. The important thing is for the ports tree itself to be somewhat in sync with world. > my guess (hack) is to find all relavent files/data trees and simply > copy over, then run necessary updates (portsdb, make world...) Do not mess directly with the ports database (in /var/db/pkg) on either machine. Until you actually do some updates in ports, pkgdb, which deals with installed ports, will not change. > if that is correct then can you tell where those files are ? The whole ports tree is in /usr/ports/. This should include the distfiles and packages you have installed since you installed from disc. The whole source tree is in /usr/src/. It is possible to install from disc without installing either of these, but if you have been cvsup'ing or cvs source and ports on the netlive machine, it certainly has them. If you did not install them on the netdead machine, you can install the copies from the netlive machine without further ado. You can even delete them from the netdead machine (if they are there) on the netdead machine, and you will still have an operable system -- nothing in them is necessary to run. But if you have the disc space, I suggest you rename (mv) them until you know your update is successful. I suggest you go through the mergemaster both times in rebuilding the system on the netdead machine. It is almost impossible to keep configuration files sufficiently in sync to make copying /etc and /usr/local/ect a viable plan (moreover, it would certainly be wrong to do so if both machines are on a net, local or internet). > if not then how should i do this ? I think you are basically on the right track. This probably will work across major releases and with drastically different architectures between the machines, but caution on the target machine is in order.

(as if the background_dhclient and background_dhclient_ variables had no effect.) attempt 3: #ifconfig_sk0="DHCP" #defaultroute_delay="0" this works, but looks hacky. so what is the RIGHT(TM) way to configure a background DHCP client, and why? are any of the DHCP-client-related rc.conf options redundant/useless? btw, there is no example in /etc/defaults/rc.conf for ifconfig_="DHCP" From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Jun 26 22:21:48 2011 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3AEC5106564A for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 22:21:48 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from nnutipa@gmail.com) Received: from mail-fx0-f44.google.com (mail-fx0-f44.google.com [209.85.161.44]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AA6788FC15 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 22:21:47 +0000 (UTC) Received: by fxe6 with SMTP id 6so1052477fxe.17 for ; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 15:21:46 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to :subject:content-type; bh=+ehxbAw/7/4c7uEd9JbSJywUklysLJWHeqvWcV+jWwg=; b=TUliq/o+chSSKNMk+Jwm2jQz6zERGsJOkg3YcSPDMHfviavYDNjlqeY7uNgfOOE55m H2uNQjy70hQJQVcqF1mnROUqA8QLokFo+X1B/+S3Cj7+lD9E5tCa942Ssy04NsFQGIgb 7nVEQbZn+ZQnk8xiQTtVPnth/Em6MVHpZoGZ0= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to:subject :content-type; b=w+0YPFnfO1nNjxWLzna0UdZSbGvDMS+TQBSo9ZDzhg0MU3eKqKuhzcHyh8Dmtt3JER 8YHS4phKLE+9pb5GNVRhedC720e5F1I6zSSHmuGl09/EmCc6RgjE7c77CX0Wlx3Bq94F x1N1iFpcOu7G53bP9kXU5l8cl7J+YpbnZeoZg= Received: by 10.223.55.8 with SMTP id s8mr7808899fag.141.1309125282493; Sun, 26 Jun 2011 14:54:42 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [192.168.1.10] ([178.121.217.110]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id h28sm3125113faj.29.2011.06.26.14.54.40 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Sun, 26 Jun 2011 14:54:41 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <4E07AA9F.90509@gmail.com> Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2011 00:54:39 +0300 From: NutipA User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.17) Gecko/20110424 Thunderbird/3.1.10 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.org Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------080205010603090104070605" Cc: Subject: Traffic ignore security policies for SA in IPSec site-to-site connection X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2011 22:21:48 -0000 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------080205010603090104070605 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit First af all, I apologize if I chose the wrong mailing list. I need to establish IPSec site-to-site connection between two offices as it shown below: LAN1 (192.168.1.0/24) | FreeBSD 8.2 (192.168.1.2) + ipfw NAT over PPTP(X.X.X.X) | | internet | | FreeBSD 8.2 (192.168.1.2) + ipfw NAT over PPPoE(X.X.X.X) | LAN2 (192.168.10.0/24) The connection between two gatways has been successfully established. All traffic between two VPN-gateways with global addresses X.X.X.X and Y.Y.Y.Y has been sucessfully encapsulated and encrypted. I see this traffic as packets with ESP headers in my sniffer. Then I added static routes to each LAN. But when I ping any private address in LAN2 from my computer (192.168.1.102) I see the next output in tcpdump on LAN1 gateway: 19:33:42.506971 IP X.X.X.X > Y.Y.Y.Y : IP 192.168.1.102 > 192.168.10.1: ICMP echo request, id 13941, seq 4, length 64 (ipip-proto-4) Traffic hasn't been encrypted and processed by ipsec! It has rather been placed only in gif-interface and of course remote site is not responding. So IP-packets ignore security policies for SA: 192.168.10.0/24[any] 192.168.1.0/24[any] any in ipsec esp/tunnel/Y.Y.Y.Y-X.X.X.X/use spid=6 seq=1 pid=23533 refcnt=1 192.168.1.0/24[any] 192.168.10.0/24[any] any out ipsec esp/tunnel/X.X.X.X-Y.Y.Y.Y/use spid=5 seq=0 pid=23533 refcnt=1 As I understand, the traffic from client machines in any direction should look like this: 21:34:16.486698 IP Y.Y.Y.Y > X.X.X.X: ESP(spi=0x043488c2,seq=0x66), length 116 Please help me to solve this strange problem. I have created a test environment (5 virtual machines) and everything was ok! The only difference was that the tests were run in a several private local networks, without ISP and pptp/pppoe-interfaces. Also, on the advice of other people I need to try it without gif-interface, but all my tests was made according by handbook article. P.S. I have attached my configs and output of any commands, because my message is too big. --------------080205010603090104070605 Content-Type: text/plain; name="ipsec_configs.txt"

I've released a new version of my host-setup utility. Available here: http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/download/host-setup.txt or here: http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/ Now at version 3.2, here's the delta: - Added support for FreeBSD-9.x's new dialog(1) (which lacks `--hline' supp= ort). - Added support for /usr/ports/x11/Xdialog You can now execute this on the console or in X windows.

I've decided to do this using Squid and to take advantage of Squid's cache when updating common ports across those hosts. (BTW, at another site I used rsync to sync /usr/ports/distfiles across the hosts to a local master site then specified _MASTER_SITES_DEFAULT in make.conf to a FTP server on the local site. That method works when the port is previously cached however if the file isn't in the cache and I simultaneously install the port across ten hosts, the port is fetched ten times. Sigh.) I have a Squid proxy installed that isn't meant for every-day/every-user use and requires authentication. (Users either go through another Squid proxy or direct.) The special Squid proxy works. No surprise there. Authentication works. No surprise there. What I need is a method to embed into make.conf a proxy specification for fetch. Setting the environment variable HTTP_PROXY from the login shell /is not/ preferred because the account is used by different administrators, I don't what the special proxy accidentally polluted with non-port stuff, and it would only create confusion. Setting http_proxy in make.conf does not work. .netrc doesn't appear to be a viable method (if it did, I could specify FETCH_ARGS in make.conf).

Just did a freebsd-update from 8.1 to 8.2, just doing the second boot to do 'freebsd-update install' for the second time, and got dumped into the mountroot prompt. AFAICT, I managed somehow to write something strange into /etc/fstab. Can't tell what it is, because during boot it passes by too quickly for me to read, and the boot process dumps me into the mountroot prompt. WinXP still boots just fine, and the FreeBSD boot manager is in place, and was working before the update. FreeBSD was booting just fine from /dev/ad0s2a, prior to running freebsd-update. Now, however, when I select f1 to boot FreeBSD, I get the boot menu, output from the boot process, and (as I've mentioned) then I get the mountroot prompt. I've even downloaded and burned the 8.2 live boot iso, but it says it can't find a hard drive from sysinstall - both the Fdisk and Label options say "No disks found! Please verify that your disk controller is being properly probed at boot time. See the Hardware guide on the Documentation menu for clues on diagnosing this type of problem." I get no love from the Fixit shell, either, with /dev being void of any reference to the hard drive - just acd0. I'm pretty sure that if I can mount the disk that I can just edit the cruft out of /etc/fstab, and it will all be fine, but I can't get there... Anyone have a thought on how to get this running? I've googled myself silly on this, and am getting nowhere.

Having a dedicated ZIL is accepted to be a performance concern, more than security. Obviously you'll do as you please, but I'll tell you what: If you're going to play cheap and grab a USB key for your ZIL, don't be surprised when you lose your data and/or experience downtime because your key went boom, or the USB controller hung for a sec and your sync failed. This is data we're talking about, and considering you want a dedicated ZIL this is probably important and/or voluminous data.

Don't know what would cause that. Custom kernels could have the ATA_STATIC_ID option removed, which might give the disk a different number, ad2 or ad4 usually. The BIOS could have AHCI mode set, but that should not change with 8.2. That would make the disk ada0. I second the suggestion of mfsBSD.

I have had problems with FUSE code, as recently as last week (i.e., very large files). How does SSHFS resolve multiple systems simultaneously downloading and caching ports? I assume much the same as any file system where there is a reasonable risk of content corruption (e.g., one of the downloads abort resulting in a partial download or a lack of file locking results in multiple processes simultaneously writing to the same file with unpredictable content). Many of my servers provide network/system services over a dodgy AT&T MPLS. As such, the servers must be as autonomous as possible. In the _MASTER_SITES_DEFAULT technique I used at another site, if my site-local FTP server is unavailable then fetch does the normal stuff (i.e., it fails to the next site in the list). The compromise with a proxy technique is to disable the proxy spec if there is a network problem. This works because I have three, independent Internet exit points across my WAN linked together with local-preferenced BGP.

This version mis-match thing is a known limitation with FreeBSD pkgs: changes are under development, but nowhere near ready for primetime yet. Instead, install amanda from ports. Ports will automatically adapt to the version of perl you already have installed, and generally do what you want. Amanda is not (as I recall) something with a huge dependency list, nor is it a particularly enormous program in its own right, so compiling the port shouldn't be too onerous.

It makes sense that GRUB would understand "extended partitions" since its roots are in Linux which is often installed in extended partitions. Ideally FreeBSD should have a native solution, i.e. a version of boot2 that would understand extended partitions. Dunno without trying it if the capability could be added to the existing boot2 without exceeding available space, or if it would need a new variant. > You're welcome to have those patches as well if you need them. It would be good to get them posted somewhere. GRUB is not in the FreeBSD tree AFAIK, so send-pr is likely not all that good a method, but perhaps they could be pushed upstream to the GRUB maintainers? > Lastly I have the following in my kernel configuration file: > > include GENERIC > ... > nooptions GEOM_PART_BSD > nooptions GEOM_PART_MBR > options GEOM_BSD > options GEOM_MBR > > That is because I am not fond of the new mangled device names, > but prefer the old ones. What differences? AFAIK a disk sliced with fdisk and partitioned with bsdlabel will have partition names like ad0s1a regardless of which GEOM modules are used to process the MBR and partitions. It's only if one uses the GPT partitioning scheme instead of fdisk/bsdlabel that the disk will have partition names like ad0a.

You probably just updated the World (base-system) source code. I think the sample sup files have separate files for world and ports . I think that's the best way to do it although some people prefer to do them together. Most people these days use portsnap for updating the ports tree.

You need to update your ports tree, which is handled separately from the base system. The simplest method is via portsnap(8) (qv http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dportsnap&apropos=3D0&sektion= =3D0&manpath=3DFreeBSD+8.2-RELEASE&format=3Dhtml or http://tinyurl.com/3cr6ktw ) And then run portupgrade (or portmanager, or portmaster) to upgrade your installed ports. You can also use cvs to update your ports tree, but it occasionally presents certain difficulties. --=20 -- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Jun 27 22:25:41 2011 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 66A7C106564A for ; Mon, 27 Jun 2011 22:25:41 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd-questions@m.gmane.org) Received: from lo.gmane.org (lo.gmane.org [80.91.229.12]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EA96A8FC13 for ; Mon, 27 Jun 2011 22:25:40 +0000 (UTC) Received: from list by lo.gmane.org with local (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from ) id 1QbKFP-0002zx-FL for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 28 Jun 2011 00:25:39 +0200 Received: from pool-173-79-85-36.washdc.fios.verizon.net ([173.79.85.36]) by main.gmane.org with esmtp (Gmexim 0.1 (Debian)) id 1AlnuQ-0007hv-00 for ; Tue, 28 Jun 2011 00:25:39 +0200 Received: from nightrecon by pool-173-79-85-36.washdc.fios.verizon.net with local (Gmexim 0.1 (Debian)) id 1AlnuQ-0007hv-00 for ; Tue, 28 Jun 2011 00:25:39 +0200 X-Injected-Via-Gmane: http://gmane.org/ To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Michael Powell Followup-To: gmane.os.freebsd.questions Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2011 18:27:18 -0400 Lines: 82 Message-ID: References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit X-Complaints-To: usenet@dough.gmane.org X-Gmane-NNTP-Posting-Host: pool-173-79-85-36.washdc.fios.verizon.net Subject: Re: cvsup and versions X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2011 22:25:41 -0000 wayne mitchell wrote: > hey, > i have just cvsup'ed for first time (newbie) Cvsup as an add-on port is actually no longer needed.

The make target of buildworld, buildkernel, etc apply to the OS itself and would pertain mostly to OS version upgrades and custom kernels. This can be reflected in the supfile you might utilize for each purpose. I keep 2 different ones, because they pull different bits. By way of example, my 'src' supfile for OS source updating will have something along the lines of: [...] *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_8_2 *default delete use-rel-suffix compress src-all The tag RELENG_8_2 is known as the security branch of Release. The only bits that change with regard to Release is the inclusion of security update patches. The src-all collection contains the OS bits. My 'ports' supfile has a different tag and collection: [...] *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix compress ports-all The ports-all collection updates the ports tree. Note the different tag. If you were to use this tag _and_ the src-all collection you would be pulling the OS bits for -HEAD. When used for ports tree refresh you will always be on the most current ports tree at each refresh. Since dependency tracking comes from the ports tree, each time it 'moves' forward (that is applications get newer with version number changes) all dependencies slide along for the ride. This is what enables one to utilize portupgrade and portmaster to keep installed applciations (and their dependencies) updated and matching version-wise. So most refresh their ports tree immediately prior to adding, installing, or updating 3rd party applications, ensuring that everything is always the latest and greatest. The possibility does exist that one may 'freeze' a ports tree in time, although not many good reasons for doing so exist. In the ports supfile can be added a date parameter which will select a version of the tree as it existed at that time. Not something I'd recommend dealing with, per se. > the version in this system ports tree is 1.0.21 > the set of versions available within the cvs repository are: > 1.0.20, 1.0.23, 1.0.24 - but not 1.0.21 > 1.0.24 is latest > it seems that the latest version did not carry across with the cvsup > i have most documentation available > have tried portupgrade - no go > am stuck > how do i update this individual port > and is it possible to have two separate versions of same port in the tree > example: to rename libsndfile dirs to > libsndfile-1.0.21, libsndfile-1.0.24 > for sake dependancies > am guessing, though i suspect that the two installed binaries may > conflict... _______________________________________________ Although not particularly recommended it is possible to have one binary version of a lib reported as multiple versions. See man libmap.conf. I believe it is better to have recompiled apps linked to the correct lib, e.g. libfoo.so.3 may be possibly different enough so that when you lie to app xyz it is libfoo.so.2 app xyz may malfunction. -Mike From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Jun 27 23:52:18 2011 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ACFD9106566B for ; Mon, 27 Jun 2011 23:52:18 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from gyrd-se@thanelange.no) Received: from sakura.nani.no (sakura.nani.no [195.204.164.110]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 11D258FC18 for ; Mon, 27 Jun 2011 23:52:17 +0000 (UTC) Received: (qmail 90348 invoked by uid 89); 28 Jun 2011 01:52:16 +0200 Received: from cm-84.208.141.195.getinternet.no (HELO parvati.thanelange.no) (gyrd-se@thanelange.no@84.208.141.195) by sakura.nani.no with SMTP; 28 Jun 2011 01:52:16 +0200 Date: Tue, 28 Jun 2011 01:52:16 +0200 From: Gyrd Thane Lange To: perryh@pluto.rain.com Message-ID: <20110628015216.386bf8c6@parvati.thanelange.no> In-Reply-To: <4e08b653.f21Zod5W+PPBQkwI%perryh@pluto.rain.com> References: <4D7F86D5012E084A@> <4e05220e.GBAaOafCcTgMjymv%perryh@pluto.rain.com> <20110626202852.6765f935@parvati.thanelange.no> <4e08b653.f21Zod5W+PPBQkwI%perryh@pluto.rain.com> X-Mailer: Claws Mail 3.7.9 (GTK+ 2.22.1; amd64-portbld-freebsd9.0) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: doug@safeport.com, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Dual Boot 8.2 and Windows 7 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2011 23:52:18 -0000 On Mon, 27 Jun 2011 09:56:51 -0700 perryh@pluto.rain.com wrote: > Gyrd Thane Lange wrote: > > > On Fri, 24 Jun 2011 16:47:26 -0700 > > perryh@pluto.rain.com wrote: > > > > > ...

I've always meant to submit it as a PR, but found the send-pr(1) too daunting.

The problem with GRUB was computing the correct absolute start sector of FreeBSD partitions, as in bsdlabel(8), when they resided in "extended partitions". More details are available as comments in the patch. All that's required is to drop the file into: /usr/ports/sysutils/grub/files/ and then build the port, install grub, e.t.c. I can make a PR for it against the sysutils/grub port.

Sorry, I didn't explain that very well. Yes, I agree that there probably aren't any differences for primary slices, but I had some trouble with slice names for slices in "extended partitions". For instance, my root volume is on /dev/ad8s11a. I don't remember what the new GEOM_PART_* suggested to call it, but it was very different. Also I wanted to avoid using the hard-to-read names like /dev/ufsid/442602f4ad1b67d2 I suppose I could always get around that problem by using tunefs -L myroot and putting vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:/dev/ufs/myroot" in /boot/loader.conf. Similar change to /etc/fstab.

Check if you can download FreeSBIE somewhere. It's a live system using the 5.x and 6.x kernel which should be fine. Next to two GUI modes (light, heavy) it also has a versatile "maintenance mode" for such operations.

Every setting is auto (including getting the nameserver). The auth protocol is CHAP. But when I boot into FreeBSD 8.0 (stable), and run 'ppp -auto pmdemand' followed by 'ping [1]www.google.com' (or yahoo or any other site, for that matter), I always get "Hostname lookup failure". BTW, I don't have an /etc/resolv.conf. I only configured ppp.conf (please see below for details).

So the easiest solution would be to boot an older kernel if available. I don't know how freebsd-update deals with older kernels, he should still be around. First guess is /boot/kernel.old/kernel. So get the loader-prompt, "unload kernel" and try "load /boot/kernel.old/kernel".

Let's say you have a branch for a productive version 1.0, and a branch (or trunc) for the next version 1.1 and a fix for a problem in 1.0 must of course also be fixed in 1.1; it would be nice if there is some tool to not do the tracking by hand in some files/Wiki or whatever; Thanks matthias -- Matthias Apitz t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e - w http://www.unixarea.de/ From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Jun 28 19:25:25 2011 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D5D01106566C for ; Tue, 28 Jun 2011 19:25:25 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from invalid.pointer@gmail.com) Received: from mail-pz0-f54.google.com (mail-pz0-f54.google.com [209.85.210.54]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AD4DD8FC15 for ; Tue, 28 Jun 2011 19:25:25 +0000 (UTC) Received: by pzk27 with SMTP id 27so482001pzk.13 for ; Tue, 28 Jun 2011 12:25:25 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to:cc:subject :references:in-reply-to:content-type:content-transfer-encoding; bh=Q/fjhPvh4F/SV2UeabAGGSUkYI1MgtxCvwriRIrnVvE=; b=dlw/+iVKC7LRy5KMdqxocJYRqdIwGOi5ZgdabSv4G0J6jgmhaVTad2eKCKUbri/CG3 mUHdhNlHfqA6Dj7v9hWr45WjXll5QFlv95JnCsbZPi4CIsooev1edBP9YvmToWcywtv+ li0ttdTXZXBGe00QshQuSBcx2TNvcBAMA1lWE= Received: by 10.142.248.7 with SMTP id v7mr1621375wfh.358.1309289125025; Tue, 28 Jun 2011 12:25:25 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [127.0.0.1] ([14.96.214.151]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id t15sm290141wfh.16.2011.06.28.12.25.21 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Tue, 28 Jun 2011 12:25:23 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <4E0A2AA7.8050507@gmail.com> Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2011 00:55:27 +0530 From: Manish Jain User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100608 Thunderbird/3.1 To: Matthias Apitz References: <4E098E1B.2000700@gmail.com> <20110628184613.GA1074@tiny> In-Reply-To: <20110628184613.GA1074@tiny> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Can someone please help me set up my tata-photon (huawei) modem ?

(This will hopefully finish in about 15 hours, as cygwin::ncftpget suggests). I also tried a few other things, most notably installing usb_modeswitch, and putting this into /etc/devd.conf : attach 100 { device-name "ugen[0-9]+"; match "vendor" "0x12d1"; match "product" "0x1446"; action "/usr/local/bin/usb_modeswitch"; }; Running kldload for u3g and ucom indicates they are both already loaded. Running usb_modeswitch seems to have also generated some /dev/ttyU. files, along with corresponding lock and init files - just like the cua entries. The only thing that seems out of place with the current setup is that usb_modeswitch's wrapper (usb_modeswitch_dispatcher) needs /usr/local/bin/tclsh, and for some reason the FreeBSD installer installed it as /usr/local/bin/tclsh8.2 I'll try fixing the above tomorrow and will try out anything you/someone else might have to suggest. BTW, I made a slight error in my original message. My system's release version is 8.1, not 8.0.
