This is physically inside your computer. By primary IDE chain I mean the same cable that your hard drive is on. The jumper I'm refering to is on the back side of the CDROM, between the power and IDE cables. On most modern drives it's plainly labeled master and slave.

Well, it seems to me (actually, this happend to my friend also) that whenever I download a self-extracting program from my Win machine through the FreeBSD box, the program gives me the error (when I run it in Windows): "WinZip Self-Extrator header corrupt. Possible cause: bad disk or file transfer error" I have tried many other files, and this happens to all of them. I know this is quite off topic, but just wonder if there's anyway the FreeBSD box recieves the data differently than that of a Win machine... (such as in FTP, where using regular ASCII mode, files *maybe screwed up, but using bin mode, files will be transfered properly...) I am currectly using FreeBSD Release 3.2, ppp -auto -alias demand to my ISP using a modem. My friend uses FreeBSD Release 2.2.8, and same problem occurs. Thank you in advance!

Computer: Pentium 100Mhz 2 IDE Channels: Primary has 1 2.5Gb HD, Secondary has a Sony CD-ROM Both are set as Master. 40Mb RAM Boot up with kern.flp and mfsroot.flp. Get to menu to choose if I want to customize kernel, I choose the visual menu Delete all unnecessary items in my mind.. I leave the following - - Floppy disk controller - Sony CD-ROM - IDE/ESDI/MFM disk controller (wdc0) - IDE/ESDI/MFM disk controller (wdc1) - 3C509 Ethernet adapter - Everything in the Communications submenu - Everything in the Inputs submenu minus the PS/2 Mouse - Everything in the PCI submenu All are left with default values. There are no conflicts. Hit 'q', saving the configuration, and continuing with the install. Watch the probing process begin. I see the following messages amid numerous others that I did not have time to copy down.. - wdc0 not found at 0x1f0 - wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa I flip to the second virtual console and see a message saying it has found my CDROM, but no message regarding my HD. - DEBUG: Found a CDROM device for /dev/wcd0c - It also finds lp0, ep0, and fd0. Attempting to continue the install, I select the Novice menu, where I find that it has not found any disks, and I can not continue the install. Reading the Docs / Hardware, as suggested by the menu I come to the conclusion that perhaps it does not have the correct IO port or IRQ for my primary IDE channel. Therefore I attempt to find out this information by rebooting to the already installed OS, Linux. By grep'ing my dmesg, I find the following 2 lines, which are the setup of my 2 IDE channels. ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on IRQ 14 ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on IRQ 15 Hmm... So I reboot the BSD install, and look at the port and IRQ number for wdc0, thinking this will be an easy to correct situation. Ah, if only life would be that simple. The wdc0 is already setup with this information by default. Next thought, maybe the chipset for my IDE channels is not supported. Wait, but it found wdc1, so it appears to be OK.. After 3 or 4 hours in #FreeBSD on EfNet, an IRC network, I have come to no better conclusion, and as a final hope I was given this email address. So there is my problem.. I've attempted to define it as best as I can, could you offer me any gems of wisdom?

So long as the thing isn't mounted, you'll be fine. As for the 'manual' method, it sounds like your name server isn't digging 'ftp.astron.com'. My nameserver found it fine, so here's the IP if you want to change it in whatever file it needs to be changed in: 204.80.150.6 Or, alternately, make sure your DNS settings are properly in place. Contact your ISP's tech support for this info, and run /stand/sysinstall, and run through the Network configuration menu from 'Configure'. Good luck. Cory.

I live in the Netherlands and I use currently freebsd 3.2 All works fine, even the cd writer, i use gnome as windows manager and i like it too. I have a question about the ufs. How large can the harddisks be that the ufs can handle? I believe that the ufs has not a journal.. Can the ufs be recovered after a crash? What is the advantage of ufs above the extended2 fs from linux, and what about ufs compared to the xfs from silicon graphics or ntfs? Sincerely, Reinoud Koornstra.

If you do not yet have DNS up and running, and do not know much about how BIND and DNS work... it's non-trivial, but not impossible. I'll assume you already have DNS for the internal net. Right now, your DNS server has something like, ; type domain source host/file backup file primary yourdomain.org yourdomain.org (Note: I'm using the "old-fashioned" named.boot for BIND; I dunno why, I just am.) And your SOA record looks something like, @ IN SOA yourdomain.org. bhstech.yourdomain.org. ( . . . The simplest, and least elegant way to go, is just to put entries in the DNS record with a subdomain hooked on, ; Subdomain 1 machine1.sub1 IN A 192.168.0.10 machine2.sub1 IN A 192.168.0.11 ; Subdomain 2 machine1.sub2 IN A 192.168.1.10 machine2.sub2 IN A 192.168.1.11 That should work (I _think_ I used to do that), but where's the fun in that? Alternately, you add lines to the named.boot, ; type domain source host/file backup file primary yourdomain.org yourdomain.org primary sub1.yourdomain.org sub1.yourdomain.org primary sub2.yourdomain.org sub2.yourdomain.org And the SOA record for the subdomains looks like, @ IN SOA sub1.yourdomain.org. bhstech.yourdomain.org. ( . . . And the entries in the record look like, ; Subdomain 1 machine1 IN A 192.168.0.10 machine2 IN A 192.168.0.11 Repeat the same for sub2. Now if you really want to get fancy, you can run DNS for the subdomains on different machines, but unless you have a humungous network that has multiple administrators (different individuals responsible for different subnets) and heavy DNS loads, that probably is not necesary. You did not state what version of FreeBSD. By default, the newer version of BIND comes with 3.x and the previous version with 2.2.x. They have different configuration/boot file formats. -- Crist J.

I do not believe so. And probably for good reason. Off of the top of my head I can think of quite a few non-trivial hurdles to get the process right. However, if you want to try, you can probably write a script to take the listing of /var/db/pkg, trim off version numbers, find the port's directory in /usr/port, then drop in there and uninstall, make, install, and clean. You might want to try things like, not install the same version again, don't uninstall a port to only find the new one is labeled broken. Like I said, you can try that. I am not sure if you really want to. -- Crist J.

That would only be true if he wanted to set his named up as a forwarder. What most people mean by "caching only" is that the local named does the resolution and caches the responses, but it's not authoritative for any zones. On freebsd systems all you have to do is run the makerev script in /etc/namedb and then fire up named. I usually symlink /etc/namedb/named.conf to /etc/named.conf because I'm kind of a purist about such things, but that's not mandatory if you use '/usr/sbin/named -c /etc/namedb/named.conf' to start it.

I really like it. There's *lots* to learn, but that's all part of the fun. I am having a problem -- though -- trying to understand the purpose and syntax of "/boot/kernel.conf". Man pages, and web/faq/handbook searches have all failed me as I try to unearth a document that will explain this to me. Someone on EFNet #FreeBSD pointed me to "/boot/defaults/loader.conf" which references "/boot/kernel.conf", but doesn't explain it. I didn't want to make a pest of myself so I decided I'd post my question here. FWIW, here is a snippet from "/boot/kernel.conf": ----------- di psm0 di zp0 di ze0 di adv0 en ppc0 ir ppc0 7 f ppc0 0x40 q ----------- Thank you, John jfox@wizzards.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jul 4 17: 9:20 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail1.gte.net (mail1.gte.net [207.115.153.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BB6A115140 for ; Sun, 4 Jul 1999 17:09:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from phbrown@gte.net) Received: from gte.net (1Cust209.tnt21.sfo3.da.uu.net [208.254.227.209]) by mail1.gte.net with ESMTP for ; id TAA02520 Sun, 4 Jul 1999 19:09:10 -0500 (CDT) Message-ID: <377FF79D.2669802E@gte.net> Date: Sun, 04 Jul 1999 17:09:01 -0700 From: Parker Brown X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.06 [en] (Win98; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Tech Support Subject: "lpt: lp: unknown printer" Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG That's what I get when I use the lpr command, and printcap contains the alias lp, and lp=/dev/lpt0 (which I created with MAKEDEV).

Any logic behind that reasoning? Yes. If you have multiple programs (say Apache and wu_ftp) and you were to run them under the same UID, it might be possible to use one to mess with the other. This would be easier, since they would share ownership of some files. However, if each had their own UID, they wouldn't be able to get out of their sandbox.

From the Sendmail FAQ.. http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section4.html#4.5 I'm getting these error messages: 553 MX list for domain.net points back to relay.domain.net 554 ... Local configuration error How can I solve this problem? You have asked mail to the domain (e.g., domain.net) to be forwarded to a specific host (in this case, relay.domain.net) by using an MX record, but the relay machine doesn't recognize itself as domain.net. Add domain.net to /etc/sendmail.cw (if you are using FEATURE(use_cw_file)) or add "Cw domain.net" to your configuration file. IMPORTANT: When making changes to your configuration file, be sure you kill and restart the sendmail daemon (for ANY change in the configuration, not just this one): kill `head -1 /etc/sendmail.pid` sh -c "`tail -1 /etc/sendmail.pid`" Later, -- - Jim Mock - jim@blues.ghis.net - systems administrator - ghis.NET - - work: http://www.ghis.net/ - personal: http://www.ghis.net/~jim/ - - FreeBSD 'zine: http://www.freebsdzine.org/ - jim@freebsdzine.org - - FreeBSD: http://advocacy.freebsd.org/ - jim@advocacy.FreeBSD.org - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jul 5 1:14:19 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sunu450.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de (sunu450.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de [134.147.222.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id ED84B14ED9 for ; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 01:14:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Norman.Hasler@ruhr-uni-bochum.de) Received: (qmail 953 invoked from network); 5 Jul 1999 08:14:03 -0000 Received: from pc52.et.ruhr-uni-bochum.de (HELO ruhr-uni-bochum.de) (134.147.192.52) by mailhost.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de with SMTP; 5 Jul 1999 08:14:03 -0000 Message-ID: <37806846.FD312472@ruhr-uni-bochum.de> Date: Mon, 05 Jul 1999 10:09:42 +0200 From: Norman X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en,ru MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: mounting the parallel zip drive Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hello, i╢ve read int the faq the tip for mounting zip drives For mounting my parallel port zip i done this as root : mount -t msdos /dev/da0s4 /zip ( iАm running freebsd 3.1 with the generic kernel and the default shell and i had made the /zip directory before ) the system reported: drive is not configured please help me to find out where i done the mistake To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jul 5 1:51:49 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from titan.metropolitan.at (mail.metropolitan.at [195.212.98.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 627B915272 for ; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 01:51:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mladavac@metropolitan.at) Received: by TITAN with Internet Mail Service (5.0.1458.49) id ; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 10:54:29 +0200 Message-ID: <55586E7391ACD211B9730000C11002761796CD@r-lmh-wi-100.corpnet.at> From: Ladavac Marino To: 'Matthias Meyser' , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: FreeBSD is painfully slow on my 486 Date: Mon, 5 Jul 1999 10:48:28 +0200 X-Priority: 3 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.0.1458.49) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > -----Original Message----- > From: Matthias Meyser [SMTP:Matthias.Meyser@harz.de] > Sent: Friday, July 02, 1999 6:25 PM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: FreeBSD is painfully slow on my 486 > > Hi all out there > > > Only to be sure.

FYI, if the turbo is not connected, it defaults to on. OTOH, '486 cannot change the clock frequency on the fly (it has lotsa DRAM storage in it), what the turbo switch did was to disable L2 cache. And that is exactly what the original poster did in his BIOS--he had L2 cache always disabled. > Perhaps you accidently turned it of without mention it.

Enter these lines in your custom Kernel: # Supported devices: # vpo Iomega Zip Drive # Requires SCSI disk support ('scbus' and 'da'), best # performance is achieved with ports in EPP 1.9 mode. controller ppbus0 controller vpo0 at ppbus? device lpt0 at ppbus? device plip0 at ppbus? device ppi0 at ppbus? device lpbb0 at ppbus? controller scbus0 device da0 Or something like that... Then make your kernel reboot and then it will work.....

I am thinking of developing a Clipboard Daemon, which would allow a Windows-like clipboard but better - with multiuser support and over IP. But before I take to it, I'd like to know whether such a thing exists already. NOTE: I mean for it to work with or WITHOUT X, like, adding support for it ot joe would allow cuts and pastes between copies of joe in different virtual terminals, etc... So, I'd like to know what the existing state of clipboarding in X or otherwise is :) This is certainly a newbie quesion, but, while I am new to FreeBSD, I am not new to programming.

Hi! Alex, if you want to ask questions and get answers on this list you have to write in english... Anyway, considering it's your first(?) appearence here (welcome), I'll try to answer. (The following quoted text is translated from original post by me, sorry 8-)) >There is a LAN with Internet connection (via proxy) >with FreeBSD machine. How to connect the remote machine through FreeBSD >via leased line and modems to LAN and Internet? Well, personally I am using Zelax M-115A 115.2 kb/s four-wire external modems on the 1km line. Work just fine... Look at http://www.zelax.ru for more info (also in russian,yes). But there is another great thing: http://www.granch.ru Granch adapters are positioned as "short-range modems", but looking in drivers sources it seems to me they are a kind of (so to say) "long-range" Ethernet controllers: range up to 8 kilometers, speed from 62.5 to 2000 (!) kbit/s. And yes, they have drivers for FreeBSD 2.1, 2.2, 3.0, and 3.1 (not to mention Linux, NT 3.51/4.0, Win9*, and even MSDOS drivers also). Their Solutions page has link to at least one example of Granch usage with test statistics screenshots. And they are cheap. Well enough about hardware. As for LAN/Internet connections issues: i'm afraid your question is too general and the answer will be too long. Maybe you'd better to read network sections of FreeBSD Handbook an FAQ and then ask more detailed questions about particular problems/issues. >Can remote machine have an IP address from my LAN? Hmmm... I'd say it _must_ have it. To be more specific: the interface (device) connected to your LAN must have IP from your LAN address space. Somebody _must_ correct me if i'm wrong.

Modem is something that has an UART on one end and an analog telephone line on the other. Everything else is a Winmodem, and is not supported. Let's qualify the UART part a bit more: it is a piece of hardware which converts bytes into streams of bits, and takes care about bitstream synchronization. Most modern motherboards come with at least two of them--one knows them as RS-232 ports. FreeBSD supports most available UARTs. Most, if not all, external modems connect to the RS-232 ports and use the UARTs on the motherboard, or a supported multiport serial card. Some internal modems come with UARTs on board. If those UARTs (implemented purely in hardware or not is irrelevant as long as they behave as normal UARTs) both the BIOS and FreeBSD will detect them as UARTs, and modem will be capable of functioning (modullo modem command set, but this is almost invariably Hayes-compatible nowadays). If your "modem" is not detected as serial port, it is a Winmodem and will require a special OS driver to use it. Sadly, most winmodem manufacturers do not supply the programming data--ergo, winmodems are not, and most likely never will be supported. So, to sum this up: if your modem is visible to the system as (or through) a serial port, it is supported. If it isn't, it is not. Hope this helps, /Marino -- Marino Ladavac, Dipl.-Ing.

I run X on my FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE machine .. and on X I have enlightenement .. which calls for some certain programs .. such as libjpeg .. fnlib .. Imlib and such I tried upgrading some of the programs for Enlightenment .. Such as Eterm .. and when I ran ./configure .. I first got an error saying ImLib wasn't found or installed right .. Now I installed ImLib from the /usr/ports/graphics directory .. and Then when compiling I got this error /usr/libexec/elf/ld cannot open -ljpeg : No such file or directory .. The error was somewhat along that lines .. (I don't have it excatly infront of me at the moment) But the funny part is libjpeg is installed .. and I installed it from ports as well .. and I also installed it from the reg source file .. So This is what is confusing me .. so if someone could please respond to me .. and tell me what I can do .. and how I can fix this .. it would save me on trying to tear my hair out. :) By The way .. I have also updated the lib cache and such .. and even tried editing the makefile .. so I don't know .. Well thanks in Advance.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, We have an Exabyte 210 tape changer, wich is for now plugged on a NT box. I would like to set this up on a FreeBSD box to see if things are going better, but as moving around with such devices is not quite easy, I was wondering first if the EXB-210 works with FreeBSD. Amanda will be our backup software, but I didn't found explicit informations on the EXB-210 support. The amanda FAQ just tells me that the tape changers are supported via a kind of generic interface. Any information on setting this up will be appreciated :) thanks in advance, Erik de Zeeuw, Universite du Havre. erik.dezeeuw@univ-lehavre.fr To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jul 5 6:48:40 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hostigos.otherwhen.com (mavery-gw.pernet.net [205.229.2.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3038315284 for ; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 06:48:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mavery@mail.otherwhen.com) Received: from mail.otherwhen.com (mail.2.229.205.in-addr.arpa [205.229.2.19] (may be forged)) by hostigos.otherwhen.com (8.8.6/8.7.3) with ESMTP id IAA09950 for ; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 08:49:36 -0500 (CDT) Message-Id: <199907051349.IAA09950@hostigos.otherwhen.com> Received: from PORKY/SpoolDir by mail.otherwhen.com (Mercury 1.45); 5 Jul 99 08:48:09 -0600 Received: from SpoolDir by PORKY (Mercury 1.45); 5 Jul 99 08:47:58 -0600 From: "Mike Avery" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 5 Jul 1999 08:47:55 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: novell netware volume Reply-To: mavery@mail.otherwhen.com In-reply-to: X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.12) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 5 Jul 99, at 9:49, Oles' Hnatkevych wrote: > We got novell netware 4.11. > Please tell me how can I access a file from a netware volume > to freebsd? > So far I have the only idea: through Windows NT as a gateway, > using samba/rumba. > Are there any better ways? Let's hope so! Perhaps you could an Apple and a Commodore in the mix too! I believe there is a NetWare Samba NLM. Look at http://www.samba.org for more information.

My problem is that after klding the linux module, when I try to execute the Linux binary I get the error: /usr/local/sybase/install/sybinit: error in loading shared libraries libm.so.6: cannot open shared object file: Bad address So, I try a /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig and both with no arguments,or with the /compat/linux/lib as the argument I get: /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig: warning: can't open /usr/lib (Bad address), skippin g /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig: warning: can't open /lib (Bad address), skipping I've tried to modifie the /compat/linux/etc/ld.so.conf to point to the Linux's /lib and /usr/lib with no success.... I guess the Linux librarys are just for the linux module so I have not put the /compat libraries in my freebsd's /etc/ld.so.conf. Actually, I added this file myself, would that be my problem?

The above bits seem to take > up most of the time. You should definitely remove use CGI::Carp here. And use CGI - almost definitely. Which capabilities of CGI.pm do you need, anyway? I guess that $| = 1 is alright here, but... Depending on the amount of output to STDOUT this script does, this statement can considerably slow things down. Are you doing intelligent things with modem's http interface? In most cases, LWP::Simple is enough. And finally, the fact you presented us with just a few first lines of your script suggests that you think that the startup overhead is the major slowing factor. Are you sure of it? I mean, judging from your use of CGI::Carp in non-cgi environment, you are not very good in Perl, so the possibility that script does something in, uhmm, not the most efficient fashion is far from remote. :-) Show us more...

OK. My host is connected to two ISP's at the same time: network_interfaces="ep0 ep1 lo0" ifconfig_ep0="inet 10.0.0.55 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_ep1="inet 212.187.0.39 netmask 255.255.248.0" ifconfig_ep1_alias0="inet 194.134.130.170 194.134.128.1 netmask 255.255.252.0" defaultrouter="212.187.0.1" The above is correct, as should be *and* working as advertised. Now, my problem is that I need to contact some 194.134 hosts that lie just outside the 255.255.252.0 mask and need to do so through the 194.134.128.1 gateway. I.e. *not* using the default route. > I'm not sure what I would expect ifconfig to do when you specify > a destination address on a non PTP line but it obviously confuses > the heck out of it. See what it did to your broadcast address If it can't be done as it oughta then it oughta be done as it can. Hm, I guess it looses a bit in translation . Just going through the possibilities. There aren't that many. Added porblem is of course that it doesn't like routing through aliassed IP addresses. But haven't tried the 255.255.0.0 mask yet with this setup. Do know that it failed miserably on the previous setup (linux box). Well, not exactly miserably but strange sideeffects did occur. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.

Did a "make aout-to-elf-build" and "*-install"; all seemed to go well. This is another problem, the appropriate step to take is 'make upgrade', the other targets are remnants from older methods of upgrading. At this point it's nearly impossible to determine what kind of state your system is in. I would suggest that you either use the CD's, or the ftp method of doing an install. Ideally you would want to wipe your freebsd installation and start over (you did take backups before you started, right?), but if that's not possible, try doing the installation and specifying the same partition sizes and locations. Often times that will preserve the existing data (what's not overwritten by the installation that is). If you are going to use the ftp method of installation I recommend that you visit releng3.freebsd.org and get the latest 3.2-Stable snapshot. There are a number of small, silly things that were fixed shortly after the 3.2 release. Good luck, and I hope this helps, Doug To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jul 5 11:24:25 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alanmcc.net.us (tc4-s13.wizard.net [209.8.153.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 77FF315360 for ; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 11:24:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from alan17@wizard.net) Received: (qmail 302 invoked by uid 500); 5 Jul 1999 18:25:30 -0000 Message-ID: <19990705182530.301.qmail@alanmcc.net.us> From: alan17@wizard.net Subject: How to boot FreeBSD To: Jeff.Bond@nectech.co.uk (Bond Jeffery) Date: Mon, 5 Jul 1999 14:25:30 -0400 (EDT) Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: from "Bond, Jeffery" at Jun 10, 99 02:39:02 pm X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] 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 According to Bond, Jeffery: > > Basically, the easy way is to not create ANY partitions for FreeBSD yet, but > just leave some unused space (3 gig or whatever).

I ordered a 2.2.5 CD from Walnut > Creek ages ago, and they seem very quick and reliable. Jeff, thanks for your info, which was all completely on target. I bought my 3.2 CDs from Cheapbytes, they took longer than they usually do(I recommend them BTW) and I finally got around to installing FreeBSD. It did not wipe my Linux partitions, for which I am grateful. But I can't get to it!! I searched for a way to make a bootable floppy but couldn't find it. If that's my stupidity/carelessness, I hope someone will kindly point out where on my two CDs such a thing can be found. Of course, I'd rather amend my LILO( = L*n*x LOADER). My situation: I have an original 2.1 HD with 300meg allocated to DOS(more or less as an act of piety, I never use it) and the rest allocated to Linux. My present LILO allows me to boot either, giving me a prompt before anything comes up. And now I have a FreeBSD installation at the beginning of my 6.3g second hard drive, and I'd like to be able to enter e.g. "fbsd" when the LILO prompt appears and be able to boot FreeBSD. Does anyone out there boot FreeBSD from LILO? Could you share with me how to add to my present /etc/lilo.conf? I would be most grateful.

I'd like to take the errors one at a time and explore the most important first (hopefully): Jun 30 20:22:03 juno /kernel: swap_pager: out of swap space Jun 30 20:22:27 juno /kernel: pid 12548 (sh), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space This looks like a particularly nasty one. :-> Here's a df of my partitions: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0s1a 31743 22734 6470 78% / /dev/wd0s1f 825055 741859 17192 98% /usr /dev/wd0s1e 29751 4423 22948 16% /var procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc As a consequence of the above errors (I think), my machine locks up from time to time. About once a week or so. No keyboard input accepted, no mouse input accepted, can't move to a virtual console, can't telnet in. When I try and telnet in, I get "no route to host" messages, as though the box doesn't exist on my home network. Does this call for a reinstall at this point? The other related problem is that I have great problems trying to compile stuff. Jun 30 22:50:17 juno /kernel: pid 17820 (cc1), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) I guess I run out of virtual memory at this point and compiles exit with an error. Same happens with inetd-wrapped processes, like: Jul 2 01:00:02 juno /kernel: pid 724 (cron), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) Jul 2 06:28:04 juno /kernel: pid 1169 (inetd), uid 0: exited on signal 4 Jul 2 06:28:04 juno inetd[135]: /usr/libexec/comsat[1169]: exit status 0x4 But maybe I should stick to this swap problem first....

He looked in the log files and was seeing errors allocating about 12 MB of memory this fixed the problem.. Did you get any dependancy errors when installing the RPM?

Try pulling a new copy of the xl driver from -STABLE. You want src/sys/pci/if_xl.c and it's accompnying header. That or update to 3.2-STABLE. I think this problem was fixed recently.

This starts things up at the correct point. However, maybe it's time for a knob in rc.conf ? Something like ppp_enable="NO" # Start user-ppp ppp_alias="YES" # Packet aliasing (NAT/masquerading) ppp_mode="auto" # Usually auto or ddial ppp_profile="papchap" # Which profile to read from /etc/ppp/ppp.conf We'd also need a default /etc/ppp/ppp.conf that contains a papchap profile as this seems to be what most ISPs give you these days. I'd also include a commented-out ``set login'' with an appropriate comment. Sysinstall may need to be adjusted too... Suggestions/objections ?

Really? Can ya tell? Is it that obvious? Yes, this is my first script. And it's not even mine. I obtained it from someone else who wrote it for their ADSL connection. All I've done is modify it slightly.

In an all-too-successful attempt to while away the hours, I'm trying to install 3.2-RELEASE onto my el cheapo laptop. The boot process locks up shortly after the -P keyboard probe fails. This is not a problem, so long as I can remove boot.config from the kern.flp image. Now here's the catch. I have no UNIX machine at home, and there's no diskette in the 3.5" drive of my office machine. So I've been trying unsuccessfully to use vnconfig to mount the kern.flp image so that I can manipulate its contents. I have the vn.ko kernel module loaded. I've done MAKEDEV vn0 in /dev/. The closest I've come to success has been: [root@axl] ~sheldonh # vnconfig -e /dev/vn0c kern.flp mount=/mnt vnconfig: mount: Input/output error So clearly, the medication I'm on is more groovy than I'd first imagined. I'd really appreciate tips on how to remove boot.config from my 3.2-RELEASE kernel floppy without having a physical UNIX machine present. I can do remote fiddles to my heart's content. Thanks, Sheldon.

You just don't need CGI and CGI::Carp there. Although the use of regexes is a bit weird, the program has no loops, so I can't think of anything which may cuase the slowness you described, except for the initial loading of the modules and for the internal working of LWP stuff. Frankly, Lincoln Stein did a decent job trying to minimize the loadtime of CGI.pm, but anyway you should immediately observe certain speedup as soon as you remove CGI and CGI::Carp use. > #!/usr/bin/perl > ## Program Name: fetch2.cgi > ## > ## Nokia M10 address fetcher > ## > ##I hope that this program is useful to you.

Processes are cheap in FreeBSD, but can't you just tune your cron job description to send Perl's stdout to syslog directly? This will eliminate one extra process launch (cron will launch a logger once, anyway). So let's make it print "DYNDNS script start\n"; > $| = 1; This should not harm - you don't have lots of output anyway. > use CGI; > use CGI::Carp (fatalsToBrowser); Get rid of those. > require LWP; Yep, your modem has a password protection. It's easier to leave this part as it is now. Of course, as another poster said, it would probably be nice in your particular setting to program the fetch with low-level socket calls, but this becomes a bit of an overhead for *you*, the programmer, huh? > ## Set the username and password for the M10 > $user = "MadeHardBy"; > $pass = "Telecom"; > > ## Set the URL of the page containing the current IP for the M10 > $URL = "http://192.168.1.254/shell/show+ip+interfaces"; > > ## Set the left and right hand side of the Regular Expression that will > find > ## the IP within the page > $lhs = "inet "; > $rhs = " netmask 0 peer"; It's probably a matter of style, but most of the Perl programmers I know just put such literal values (they don't change much, do they?) inside the actual regex. > ## set the following to the name of a program you want run if its a new IP > $RunIfNew = "/home/dan/dns_update.sh"; Fine, unless you wish to do it in Perl, directly.

Personally, I would write it as $page->content() =~ /inet (\d*?\.\d*?\.\d*?\.\d*?) netmask 0 peer/; Also, you dont check for a success of the match. What if there is no match? Also, obviously, either the modem returns the IP as the very first line, or the HTML it returns does not have "\n" embedded, otherwise the match will not work. Add the "s" modifier at the end of the // operator to avoid this problem. > $ip = $+; Strange. It's valid, but I am pretty sure almost everybody would write $ip = $1; instead. > ##&page_header; > &get_OldIP; Fine. Almost. Well, fine. You can as well just call get_OldIP as you would in C: get_OldIP(); > if ($ip !~ ?^$OldIP$?) { This beats me. Why someone needs to match a constant string against another constant string *backwards*? Also, the use of ?? is deprecated.

Why not make just one? Second, your "system" call will never be reached - that's an "exec" it does not return unless there was an error. Make it "system" or rearrange things or make a call to fork(), just as in C. write_OldIP(); system $RunIfNew; print "The IP Address has changed to $ip\n"; } > > system("logger -i -t DYNDNS script stop"); The same comment as at the beginning. > ## End of program. > > sub get_OldIP{ > if (open(FILE,"<$IPFilename")) { > $OldIP = ; > close FILE; > } else { > &write_OldIP; > } > } > > sub write_OldIP{ > if (open(FILE,">$IPFilename")) { > print FILE $ip; > close FILE; > } else { > print "Error: couldn't write to file $IPFilename: > $!\n"; Would you originally liked this to be mailed to you by cron? :-) > } > > > } > > sub page_header{ > print< Nokia M10 IP Address Finder > >

I am almost sure that most of the time script spends at $ua->request() guts.

I have a 192.168.* behind the firewall currently using divert sockets, natd, et al. I have a few free differing subnet IPs assigned by @Home, and would like to use these real IPs behind the firewall. I do need to use real IPs because somebody else is paying to use them behind the firewall. I have played through natd, ipfw, and bridge, but I haven't be able to get the transparent proxying working at all on 3.2-stable for these real IPs. Turning on bridging panics the kernel everytime the machine with the real IP on the inside tries to connect out. I can try to get more debugging info out as necessary. Any ideas how I should be setting things up?

I have a second question about the sound blaster awe 64. It works correctly, i am 100% sure, under linux slackware i got it running as module. But under bsd i do it in the kernel. However, i cant get it to work, i am hopeless and dont know what i can do to make it work. I could send you my kernel conf file and the /var/log/messages file so that you can see what happens? Maybe you could then also change that kernel conf file so that things are working. I also did sh MAKEDEV snd0 in the dev dir so..... However, it keeps failing, i dont know what to do... Is it possible i send you my kernel conf file and my adresses of the card and that you can change it correctly? Sincerely, Reinoud Koornstra.

Give us a little more info on what the failure is. What types of errors do you get? How did you determine that it is failing? If you can locate the relevant log messages, please send only those. If you have no idea what is relevant, then I guess you'll need to send the whole thing.

You can do that with 'nobody' as well. But as someone else pointed out, there _is_ potential hole there if one another program running under nobody accesses them. Confining the webserver to a specific user allows easier process accounting and security auditing. I also like to take advantage of group permissions (group www) to allow certain users the ability to edit and add pages. -- Crist J.

I installed FBSD 3.1 on one of my IDE hard disks. When I did that the hard disk was set as a master on a secondary IDE controller, which gave it a name of wd2 appropriately enough. Now I need to move this disk onto the primary controller as a slave disk which should give it the id of wd1. After I move the disk and set it up in the BIOS I try to boot from it. FBSD finds it just fine but then gives me the old panic: cannot mount root (2) setting root_disk_unit=1 does not work either because currdev and loaddev are still set to disk2s1a, and I'm not able to change the value of loaddev. Changing the value or currdev disorients the loader and it complains about not being able to find the kernel. Ideas, thoughts? Rudy P.S. please CC me on the suggestions as I'm not currently on the list. Thank you.

Then I erased = it because I didn't want to be boring.. Simply put, for the last 6 months I have been SUPER EXCITED to buy a Sun = Ultra 5. For $2500, I can get an Ultra 5/270mhz/256k cache machine with = 64MB ram. I wanted it for the sake of learning Solaris and learning = system administration tasks on the world's most popular commercial Unix. = Then it hit me! After selling all my legacy equipment on ebay and = having $2500 in cash sitting here in front of me, I DON'T WANT THE ULTRA = 5!=20 I used FreeBSD for several months last year and I though it was great. = It's fast and geared towards the Internet just like Solaris. The only = problem I have with buying an Ultra 5 is the cost of upgrading. Sure, = $2500 gets me a cheap Ultra 5 with 256k cache and a SpecInt of 10.2 = (equal to a Pentium II/233 - a 2 year old chip!). To upgrade the Ultra = 5 from 270 -> 480mhz with 2MB cache is $4000. The $2500 Ultra ships = with 8 Bit graphics and EIDE. The more I re-read the specs the more it = makes me see Sun is not appealing to me with the "shaved down" machine. = Besides, I want to learn "Internet" related administration, not OS = specific tasks. That means Apache, DNS, Sendmail, Real G2 Server, = things that are all available for both Solaris and FreeBSD. So, I = figures instead of spending the $2500 on a very low-end Ultra 5, I could = get more bang for the buck by getting a DEC Alpha.. A very good friend = of mine sells used SUN, SGI, and DEC ALPHA machines. He has the = following system for sale: DEC Alpha 500a, 128MB, 2MB Cache, 4GB HDA, 16MB PCI Video Card, CD-Rom - = $1550.00 Simply stated: A Sun machine that is comparable to this is going to cost = a fortune! My only question to you, the FreeBSD world (and PLEASE be = honest), is in regards to learning FreeBSD versus Solaris - is there = something I will gain by learning Solaris instead of FreeBSD? I'm an = MCSE, Cisco CCNA and CCNP who is studying for the Cisco CCIE. As we all = know, Cisco and Solaris are the two companies who are most prolific with = the Internet. However, we all know FreeBSD lives here, there, and = everywhere.. FreeBSD is by far the most popular platform that exists in = multi-vendor environments.

I almost made this a long, drawn email asking for=20 advice.  Then I erased it because I didn't want to be = boring..
 
Simply put, for the last 6 months I have been SUPER = EXCITED to=20 buy a Sun Ultra 5.  For $2500, I can get an Ultra 5/270mhz/256k = cache=20 machine with 64MB ram.  I wanted it for the sake of learning = Solaris and=20 learning system administration tasks on the world's most popular = commercial=20 Unix.  Then it hit me!  After selling all my legacy equipment = on ebay=20 and having $2500 in cash sitting here in front of me, I DON'T WANT THE = ULTRA 5!=20
 
I used FreeBSD for several months last year and I = though it=20 was great.  It's fast and geared towards the Internet just like=20 Solaris.  The only problem I have with buying an Ultra 5 is = the cost=20 of upgrading.  Sure, $2500 gets me a cheap Ultra 5 with 256k cache = and a=20 SpecInt of 10.2 (equal to a Pentium II/233 - a 2 year old chip!).  = To=20 upgrade the Ultra 5 from 270 -> 480mhz with 2MB cache is $4000.  = The=20 $2500 Ultra ships with 8 Bit graphics and EIDE.  The more I re-read = the=20 specs the more it makes me see Sun is not appealing to me with the = "shaved down"=20 machine. 
 
Besides, I want to learn "Internet" related = administration,=20 not OS specific tasks.  That means Apache, DNS, Sendmail, Real G2 = Server,=20 things that are all available for both Solaris and FreeBSD.  So, I = figures=20 instead of spending the $2500 on a very low-end Ultra 5, I could get = more bang=20 for the buck by getting a DEC Alpha..  A very good friend of mine = sells=20 used SUN, SGI, and DEC ALPHA machines.  He has the following system = for=20 sale:
 
 
DEC Alpha 500a, 128MB, 2MB Cache, 4GB HDA, 16MB PCI Video Card, = CD-Rom -=20 $1550.00
 
 
Simply stated: A Sun machine that is comparable to this is going to = cost a=20 fortune!  My only question to you, the FreeBSD world (and PLEASE be = honest), is in regards to learning FreeBSD versus Solaris - is there = something I=20 will gain by learning Solaris instead of FreeBSD?  I'm an MCSE, = Cisco CCNA=20 and CCNP who is studying for the Cisco CCIE.  As we all know, Cisco = and=20 Solaris are the two companies who are most prolific with the = Internet. =20 However, we all know FreeBSD lives here, there, and everywhere.. FreeBSD = is by=20 far the most popular platform that exists in multi-vendor=20 environments.  Many shops who use Solaris for one task use FreeBSD = for 3=20 more tasks.. It just pops up all over the place. 
 
Because I'm spending over $1k this is considered a serious move for = me.  If I buy the Alpha and install FreeBSD then that's it - there = is no=20 turning back!  If I buy the Ultra 5, the same thing will = happen..there is=20 no turning back!  I don't have money to waste...whatever I get the = first=20 time is what I am stuck with.  My instinct tells me buying the = Ultra 5 will=20 be fun for the first week but that I'll get frustrated with the SpecINT = 10.2=20 performce versus the Alpha's 18.9 performance.  Also, keeping up = with=20 FreeBSD is much easier..
 
Are there any known issues with the Alpha I should be aware = of? =20

Then I strongly doubt it's what killed your CPUs, and I can understand that your dealer doesn't want to replace it. I have never heard of any case of FreeBSD causing hardware damage before. I don't see anything in your reports so far that suggests that this is the case here. > If this is the case, then what motherboard do you recommend me to > buy ? I'm going to use FreeBSD and Win on the same machine. There shouldn't be any particular restriction. I'd suggest you look at what's available, make a short list, and ask what people think of each specific motherboard. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

I was thinking if there is a book or resource on the web (beside the Freebsd site) that explains the basic, very basic, things about this great OS, something that show you the basic commands to survive.

I was thinking if :there is a book or resource on the web (beside the Freebsd site) that :explains the basic, very basic, things about this great OS, something that :show you the basic commands to survive. : :Thanks a lot for all your comments. : : :To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org :with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message : : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jul 5 21:16:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from elmls02.ce.mediaone.net (elmls02.ce.mediaone.net [24.131.128.27]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 758D6153A3 for ; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 21:16:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from burke@mcs.net) Received: from fatman2 (el01-24-131-147-32.ce.mediaone.net [24.131.147.32]) by elmls02.ce.mediaone.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id XAA17285; Mon, 5 Jul 1999 23:16:34 -0500 (CDT) Message-Id: <4.1.19990705231209.00a7dd90@pop.ce.mediaone.net> X-Sender: johnburke@pop.ce.mediaone.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.1 Date: Mon, 05 Jul 1999 23:16:34 -0500 To: dan.langille@dvl-software.com From: Burke Gallagher Subject: Re: running frequent cron perl scripts Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: <378180ee.8f8.0@actrix.gen.nz> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG OK I think I have it now. should have seen it from your last post.

I get "finger: Permission denied" when I attempt to do so. ('w' and 'who' work as advertised). A regular user account, however, has no problem using 'finger'. I've checked manpager, FAQ, and handbook, but failed to find reference to this phenomenon. I assume at this point that some sort of security concern is the cause of this, but that's purely a guess. If anyone could clear this up for me, I would be most grateful. (I know I don't *need* root to be able to use finger, but at this point I really would like to know why this happens!)

Does anybody manage to install firewall before an Oracle SQL Server? We need to allow a few remote users to connect to our Oracle SQL Server. We install FreeBSD box with ipfw and discover next problem: we allow for remote users to connect to the Oracle box using port mentioned in SQLNet listener configuration (1521). But remote user try to connect twice: first time using port mentioned above and second time using some other port, which, as we suggest, Oracle server sent him during first connection. This port value start from 1030 (after Oracle restart) and increase after each connection and we don't manage to find it upper limit. As we suggest, Oracle uses second port to resolve sessions. We think that it is not a very good idea to allow users to connect to our server using such a wide port range. We look through all Oracle documentation and don't find any mention about the second connection. Oracle's people said that we need to use Oracle certified firewall, but it cost about 30000 backs and what hell of it!!!!! The question is does anybody managed to restrict Oracle in range of using second port values or have any idea about how to do it (there is no way to configure it in SQLNet configuration file). Thanks in advance, Alexey Ryndin.

I have 2 processes communicating via fifo. After some time, I will end up with a file table full problem. A fstat reveals lots of open files in the /tmp directory. A ls on /tmp on shows my only fifo file names. Hence I suspect that thess open files are left by the fifo. I am using mfs for my /tmp. Does fifo have a tendency to leave open files descriptors in /tmp? What else could have left open file descriptors in /tmp? Would opening a file such as /tmp/abc leave such a file in /tmp (without closing) when I do a ls? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Subject:   no data in named pipes (FIFO's)
Message-ID:  <35B4BE3D.A723D9DB@mitre.org>

Next in thread | Raw E-Mail | Index | Archive | Help

Hi,

I'm having a problem with my named pipes (FIFO's).  I have 2 processes
communicating
back and forth via 2 FIFO's.  I create them successfully on the command
line using:

    mkfifo fifo_to_simcon fifo_from_simcon

I tested them using "cat" and "more" on the command line and they work
as I
expect them to (blocking, etc).

In my program I open the FIFO's in the correct order.  The problem is
that when
I write to the file descriptors, the return values are the size of the
data that I wrote
so it was successful but no data ever gets written to the FIFO's.  An
example of
how I know this is that one program continuously writes data to the
fifo_from_simcon
and the other one takes its time reading the fifo_from_simcon so the
data queues up.
I know that the programs are logically correct because the same exact
code runs fine
under Slackware Linux 2.0.34 and Solaris x86 2.6.  I'm using FreeBSD
2.2.6R
from Walnut Creek.

Here's what the FIFO's permissions look like and a sample of the open()
calls:
(Incidently, both programs reside in the same directory)

prwxr-xr-x  1 tuan  users  0 Jul 21 10:36 fifo_from_simcon|
prwxr-xr-x  1 tuan  users  0 Jul 21 10:35 fifo_to_simcon|

In program 1:
ReadFifoFd = open("./fifo_from_simcon", O_RDONLY, 0);
WriteFifoFd = open("./fifo_to_simcon", O_WRONLY|O_TRUNC, 0);

In program 2:
WriteFifoFd = open("./fifo_from_simcon", O_WRONLY|O_TRUNC, 0);
ReadFifoFd = open("./fifo_to_simcon", O_RDONLY, 0);


Thanks,
Tuan

I'm trying to build some linux 3rd party stuff on FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE. I've done the kld thing and installed the linux_lib-2.6.1 and linux_devel-0.2 packages. (I also got my links to libc.so and libm.so correct per some other helpful email I saw posted here. I'm pointing to ../../lib versions.) Now I'm seeing problems with a requirement for libpthread: The only version I see is in compat/linux/lib/libpthread.so.0. This version requires libc.so.6. However, a simple 'hello world' program segv's when linked with this. And libm complains about an undef'd __getfpucw (in the vendor code). Only libc.so.5.4.23 avoids these two problems. Any ideas on know how to cut this knot? Thanks! k. -- Ken Marx, kmarx@bigshed.com This is like the first lap of a four-lap race.

Burke did really well by writing that script for me and then debugging it remotely. I am most impressed. The sockets script runs about 4 times faster than the original. Not to mention how much cleaner it is. Burke, if you go to the convention, I owe you a meal. FWIW: I'll be handing the script back to the person that gave me the original script. Well, not directly, but to our ADSL mailing list. I'll be documenting the script / cron job and putting it on the webpage. And as someone mentioned, I plan to write a C program for it as well. It's been about 6 years since I coded in C but it's what I used to do for a living (before I started on PowerBuilder). Yes, I admit it. I've been writing MS Windows programs for a living. Have been for about 12 years (if memory serves). I know it was for Windows 2.11 originally.

Why not just purchase the x86 version of solaris and bung it on a cheap PC? (Actually, I think both Sparc and x86 versions come together). It's very cheap too if you only want the non commercial license. I believe you only pay for packaging and delivery (30-45 USD). I believe the x86 version is complete with CDE and everything else. It should be just like the Sparc version. Have a look at . Sparc's are very well made, and very desirable, but the graphics and CPU performance you get for the money are very poor compared to modern PC's. Just my 2p worth.

Card was set with IRQ = 10 and IO = 0x300. FreeBSD seemed to recognise the card correctly and added the ep0 driver. However, when ifconfig is executed (ifconfig ep0 inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0) the system hangs completely and needs to be physically rebooted.

I just got it and can't recomend it enough for any newbies, or people who are getting used to FreeBSD. It looks like a good reference as well, but I'm still using it as a tutorial so I can't really comment on that. There are areas where more detail might be a good thing.

This isn't so much a FreeBSD comment as a NIC comment.... I'm using a few LinkSYS PCI cards, and I like them and recommend them. However, I'd suggest against using the LinkSys 10/100 cards. Based on my good luck with the PCI cards, I got one of their PCI cards, and found the performance leaves a lot to be desired. It was in my Compaq laptop for about 15 minutes before it went back to the store. At 100mbps, it was slower than many 10mbps ISA and PCI cards. The bottleneck seems to be the PCMCIA bus. It's a slow bus. If you have a newer laptop that supports CardBus, look into Xircom's Cardbus cards, or Intel's for that matter. Xircom's are about 4x as fast as the LinkSYS. As always, your mileage may vary, depending on OS, drivers, and phase of the moon.

CPU's don't have moving parts to wear out.

I've been happy with ASUS and AMPTRON. I prefer ASUS because I have more experience with them. All of them, in different versions, have run DOS, Win 3.X, Win95, WinNT, NetWare 3.X, NetWare 4.X, and FreeBSD. My own feeling here is that you may have a mis-set jumper somewhere. Perhaps a voltage off? It seems wierd that three CPU's would die.... personally, I'd get another motherboard, CPU, and fresh RAM from another vendor.... one who will support your use of FreeBSD.

The first question is, does it work under any other OS? I'd rather rule out the hardware problems first. If it doesn't work under any OS, then it's probably hardware. 3c509's have a good diagnostic and setup program you can get from 3Com's home page. I'd double check the settings, and run the diagnostics. If there are problems, remember that 3Com gives all the 3c509's a lifetime warranty. Just call 'em and get an RMA - I wish all vendors were as generous. One other thing to check is to make sure that your motherboard chipset is passing IRQ 10 to the the ISA bus. That's bitten me a time or two.

I can very much recommend being very patient. Network Solutions has not been real quick lately; I'm not sure why. I would recommend a two-step process, where you first update things so you have one server on your local network and leave the other elsewhere. If your DNS gets goofed up, no one can send you email which makes it very hard to respond to the forms that Network Solutions generates. I'm about to begin looking for someone to be a secondary DNS server for me, I would of course recipricate and be a secondary form them. I'd be happy to help you set this up. Sound good?

I have searched the mailing list archives for clues and have come up with nothing. I *think* I am following the tips that I was able to find. My hardware is an HP Omnibook 5000CTS Pentium 120 and (obviously) a 3Com 3C589C. I've booted it to DOS and used the 3Com utility to manually set the IRQ to 10 and the IO address to 300, also noting the Mem IO address (which in my case is DE00h). I then booted the 3.2-RELEASE installation disks and modified the zp0 driver from mem IO from 0xd8000 to 0xde00, left IRQ and IO address alone and deactivated all other NIC drivers (also deactivated all other unnecessary drivers for my hardware config). Once I get to the main installation screen, I alt-F2 over (with my fingers crossed) and the only network device found is lp0. The only other useful information I have is that I've tried two different 3c589C's and booted with both to Windoze and the network on the same machine. My question is what am I missing? Please help me replace Win95 with FreeBSD!! :) Thanks for any insight Troy Compton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jul 6 8:41:12 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lox2.loxinfo.co.th (lox2.loxinfo.co.th [203.146.30.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3E48B14D3B for ; Tue, 6 Jul 1999 08:41:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from system@hottransactions.com) Received: from tobi (loxppp70-usr.suapha.loxinfo.net [203.146.13.70]) by lox2.loxinfo.co.th (8.8.8/) with SMTP id XAA17527 for ; Tue, 6 Jul 1999 23:42:28 +0700 Date: Tue, 6 Jul 1999 23:42:28 +0700 From: system@hottransactions.com To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FREE Placement for http://freebsd.rrze.uni-erlangen.de/./support.html#web Organization: Hottransactions Ltd.

We have two servers directly connected to the internet through an ADSL connection, one is running FreeBSD 3.1, the other is running NT Server 4.0. The FreeBSD server is our internet http and mail server, the NT server is acting as a gateway to our internal network running Microsoft Proxy. Frequently (at least once a day) the FreeBSD server will lose contact with the outside world. What I mean by this is that nobody ouside of our subnet can access it, not even ping works. While this occurs, we can still ping the NT server from the outside (verifying that the ADSL still works), and we can still access the FreeBSD server from within the subnet without any problems. After an hour or so, the problem clears itself up and the FreeBSD server goes live again. I have noticed this happen on several occasions while using ssh to access the FreeBSD server from home. I would be working, lose my connection and no longer have any contact with the server for about an hour, then it would mysteriously reappear. We have also observed that when we lose outside contact with the server, if we reboot it, it comes back immediately, indicating that the problem is likely related to some server configuration issue. I know that this problem could be related to anything, but any insight that could be offered would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Take a look at http://www.jp.FreeBSD.org/PAO/ Your 3C589C is in the supported cards list using the ep0 driver.

Instead of putting a script in /usr/local/etc/rd.d, try this. Open /etc/ttys, edit the file from ttyv3 "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon" xterm off secure to ttyv3 "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon" xterm on secure Then restart the machine. Also for the path's, try creating and chmoding (755) a .xsession file in $HOME for root and your personal account. In there you can add a line like... PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin; export PATH or whatever you need to fix the problem. The xconsole is kinda strange I have not looked in to why it pops up, I just accepted it cause I liked it being there anyways? Good Luck, Patrick.

Personally I think it would be better getting the book only and buying the CDs separately. It would also benefit the supplier as his stock of the book would only go out of date when a new edition came out, not when a new version of FreeBSD appeared.

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 working on something that has this type of setup. | | | DSL1 | DSL0 | | Netopia1 Netopia0 \ / \ / \ / Netscreen (firewall) | | Unix Box | LAN Machines o The Netopias each have their own public IPs. o The Netopias are doing NAT but both redirect traffic destined for certain ports to the Unix box, namely ftp, http, timbuktu ports. o Internally Netopia1 is 172.31.0.2/16 and Netopia0 is 172.31.0.1/16. o The Netscreen is functioning in "transparent" mode, which means it's really acting as a bridge and filtering packets as they pass. o The Unix box is multi-homed with 172.31.0.4/16 and 172.31.5.1/24. o The LAN machines are all 172.31.5.x/24 using 172.31.5.1, the Unix box, for their gateway. o The reason behind all this we'll only have to change the default route on the Unix box in order to fall back onto the second DSL line. Here's the problem. Let's say the default route of the Unix Box goes to Netopia0. From the WAN, you can reach the Unix Box just fine if you access it via DSL0. e.g. I fill in DSL0's public IP and get the index page on the Unix Box's webserver. In this case the incoming and outgoing paths are the same. However, if you try and access the Unix Box via DSL1 in the same way, you'll time out. In this case the incoming and outgoing paths are different. It is my understand (please let me know if I'm wrong) that packets don't know anything other than their destination IP and port. Each router merely checks the header and passes the packet on. Thus, there is no reason to require the incoming and outgoing paths to be the same. I don't understand why this isn't working? Does anyone have any insights into this setup? Please let me know if I need to provide other information. john.

The files I used were: JToolBar_source-0.5.1.tar.gz JTree_source-1.1.3.tar.gz JX_source-1.5.0.tar.gz code_crusader_source-2.1.1.tar.gz I unpacked them all in /usr/local, which created the sub-dir JX-1.5.0.

The only problem I had was that it doesn't seem to search /usr/X11R6/include for headers, resulting in quite a few "file not found"'s for X11/Xlib.h and X11/Xutils.h. I got round this with a QDF by symlinking /usr/include/X11 to /usr/X11R6/include/X11.

It is a secondary master, and I believe my LILO entry works fine. But all problems are not over. :-( When I boot my machine and enter "bsd" at the LILO prompt, BSD certainly seems to be booting. The screen messages start with "Loading bsd . . . " and continue on, using a lot of terminology that a 'umble Linuxian like meself cannot fathom. But at the end of the process, here are the lines that appear on the screen: changing root device to wd1s1a changing root device to wd1a error 6: panic: cannot mount root (2) syncing disks . . . done and then I am offered the chance to reboot. I actually went through the install process twice, and thought I did the second time quite well. I am willing to try again, but I'm hoping that the Masters on this list can give me input on what to avoid, or what to try for. I installed with the "novice" method, and I put in a lot of ports . .. but I don't believe that any of that is causing the kernel panic reflected in the messages above.

If you have any questions regarding NetMAX, please feel free to call us at (800) CYBERNET, or email netmax-support@cybernet.com. There are two solutions that I propose: 1) You should be able to edit the /var/conf/etc/natd.conf file, and add in the "redirect_port" or "redirect_address" to redirect traffic. You'll want to modify the /var/conf/etc/commit.conf file to have the NetMAX system not modify the /var/conf/etc/natd.conf file anymore. This method of redirection is not very secure. 2) We have custom software that we wrote to take care of the problem: How does an employee get access to the internal network from their machine at home, when using a separate ISP? The software is called OpenFire (short for "open firewall"). It has a server program that runs on the Unix host (the NetMAX, or FreeBSD box), and a client for Unix and Windows. The client asks for the name of the OpenFire host, and your account and password. This data is sent over the Internet to the specified server, and upon successful validation, a set of firewall rules (additions/deletions) are executed on the users behalf. Upon logout (or when the client dies), another set of firewall rules are run, to add/remove the rules that were installed at login. If this is the kind of system that you need, then please contact Lauren Works, lworks@cybernet.com. I'm sure that we'd be able to provide the OpenFire s/w on a trial or beta basis! --- Mark J.

I now have user-ppp running over a bonded ISDN2E link to Pavilion Internet.

Check out LINT for the most up-to-date list of i4b supported ISDN cards. User-ppp is doing the bonding, which IMHO is the correct place to do it. -- Brian Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am trying to install the 4 CDs Walnut Creek FreeBSD 3.0 from a "more" than very generic CD-ROM as secondary slave, but I found two surprising news: I can NOT boot directly from CD, even my BIOS supports this feature! (?) And... of course I can boot from CD with other bootable cd's without problem. The second is that after making a bootable disk with the boot.flp image using "dd" one of the first installation steps tells me that No CD-ROM has been mounted. As I guess it's an IDE device, I thought it should be supported. Looking more inside, I see what I think means that FreeBSD allocates IRQ 15 to my secondary slave device. I guess it's correct, but still cannot read CD-ROM. As I know nothing about IRQs, I/O and 0x117 stuff, I need a lot of help if I have to setup this. But -say again- it's surprising it's not auto-detected!!! BTW: I don't understand the options at boot like: boot: 1:fd0a1:wda2 and could not find yet explanation after cat"ing" doc/doc.a* and untarring, and later reading install.htm .

To run the program, you need to add a ./ in front of the file name (ie: ./a.out) as the current directory is _not_ searched for executables (to prevent accidental running of trojan programs). To get cc to rename the file, use: cc hello.c -o hello and it will create an executable called 'hello' which you could then run with ./hello See the man page for cc for other compiler options, and check the -o to make sure that I remembered it correctly.

Easiest, if not fastest: Make a *complete* copy of your machine on a random empty directory of some other FreeBSD machine. Chroot into that directory, cd /, and then su - root. Then you're almost running a clone of your machine. The only differences are that you're using the other kernel and that some things, like /proc, won't be "live". But within that chroot area, you shouldn't have any trouble doing a config, compile, and link. About the only thing I can think of that would keep this from working is if your machine is running ELF and the other machine is still a.out.

This afternoon I built it one the second gmake. I needed two symlinks and an enviorment variable to make it work for me: JX_INSTALL_ROOT=/usr/local/bin; export JX_INSTALL_ROOT ln -s /usr/X11R6/include/X11 /usr/include/X11 ln -s /usr/local/man /usr/man gmake freebsd3.x worked like a charm, just like you said and I love the editor. I am not much happier with FreeBSD. I had been using Codewright under WinNT on a samba share to my home directory until now. Good luck with the port.

What I did not notice on the first hand that I had a conflict message in dmesg saying that atkbd0 could not be installed due to conflict with sc0 (both had an irq 1 entry) I removed the irq 1 from sc0 (which was in there from pre 3.x times) and the keyboard worked again.

Personally I think it would be better getting the book only and buying the CDs separately. It would also benefit the supplier as his stock of the book would only go out of date when a new edition came out, not when a new version of FreeBSD appeared.

I don't see this particular model anywhere in our documentation, but it's likely that the 3C579/3C589 driver would work. In any case, I'd recommend you move to FreeBSD 3.2 before expending a lot of work on a release which is no longer supported. > 2) Is there any page gives the step by step installation guide for > this purpose. ?? Let me know. It appears that there isn't. > 3) If not how/ where to begin ?? Well, I'm planning to write a chapter about mobile computing in the next edition of "The Complete FreeBSD", but it's not in any shape to show at the moment. Basically, here's what you need to do: 1. Build a kernel with the following device entries: # PCCARD (PCMCIA) support controller card0 device pcic0 at card? irq 0 device pcic1 at card? irq 0 2. Copy /etc/pccard.conf.sample to /etc/pccard.conf. 3. Run pccardd (just start it). 4. Insert your PCMCIA board. 5. Watch the messages that appear on the console. You'll get one of these (or something like it): Jul 7 17:33:53 mojave pccardd[56962]: No card in database for "3Com Corporation"("3CCFE575BT-D") This message shows that pccardd has found the card, but that it doesn't know how to configure it. ep0: utp/bnc[*UTP*] address 00:60:97:40:fb:e1 This one means that pccardd has found the card and has configured it. 6. I think it's unlikely that the standard pccardd will recognize your card, since nothing I've seen recognizes the 3CCFE575BT-D ID. Look at the contents of /etc/pccard.conf. You'll find an entry like: # 3Com Etherlink III 3C589D card "3Com Corporation" "3C589D" config 0x1 "ep0" ? insert echo 3Com Etherlink III inserted insert /etc/pccard_ether ep0 remove echo 3Com Etherlink III removed remove /sbin/ifconfig ep0 delete Change the second line of this entry to: card "3Com Corporation" "3CCFE575BT-D" The two strings must be *exactly* what appeared in the console message above. Save the file, stop pccardd (kill will do it) and restart it. With any luck, pccardd should bind the driver to the board, and the driver should recognize it. Let me know how this works; I need some examples for the book, and this would help me too. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

I trying to figure out if I can do load balancing = with FreeBSD=20 2.2.7 this is what I'm trying to do >

So my question is if I have three network cards in = the BSD box=20 running NATD
fxp0 =3D 209.x.x.x / 19
fxp1 =3D 209.x.x.x / = 19
tl0 =3D 10.x.x.x / 24
can it do load balancing on nic 1 & 2 = ?
 
And if so where can I get some information on it ?
 
Thanks

Unfortunately I have been entirely unsuccessful at running the program itself. =20 I have had complete success in the past with SO50. I have recieved some apparantly legitimate claims that the problem centers around the .sversionrc file that is resident in your home directory, but there has been no effect on the problem when I have that file present. I can only surmise that the soffice binary is unable to see the libraries et al that it wants after an install takes place. I even went so far as to gut my system and start from scratch on a completely fresh 3.2-RELEASE install. I installed the most recent linux_lib port and followed as precisely as possible the two install references found at http://lt.tar.com/so50.out and http://www.freebsdrocks.com There is something broken here that is beyond me...if there is someone who can give any insight here beyond the ".sversionrc" issue I think that we may be able to solve this... >I appreciate Alejandro's response, but it is to no avail.

Do you have a primary slave device installed? The reason I ask is because I had a similar problem a while ago when I had a primary and secondary master, but no primary slave. Have you tried entering wd2a at the 'Boot:' prompt? I can't remember the exact syntax, but you can specify where the root fs is at the boot prompt. Once you get it to boot using this method, I think you can then modify some file to tell it where to look (or recompile the kernel). Sorry I don't have exact details. I'm sure someone else on the list does know!

When I had this setup with 2.2.8 I had to recompile the kernel to make it work. I'm sure it was fixed in 3.1 I think it falls over because it sees your secondary master as the 2nd device (instead of 3rd device), so somehow thinks this is wd1a and not wd2a. Can anyone back me up and confirm that this WAS a real bug? Has it been fixed?

But..... not completly, I run freebsd 3.2 I added the nessesay lines to my kernel to get my awe 64 working but it didnt work. Finally some one told me to add some lines to loader.rc load /kernel load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.conf autoboot 5 I added then, however in the beginning, then is told that the kernel is alrdy been loaded so....can't execute load /kernel he says.... anyway that's not bad i guess. BUt i was also told to add the next lines to kernel.conf pnp 1 0 os port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 pnp 1 0 enable pnp 1 1 os port0 0x208 pnp 1 1 enable pnp 1 2 os port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20 pnp 1 2 enable So, i added them to my kernel.conf. However, still no good result. Finally i put those lines in top of the kernel.conf and now that had better results....... here are some messages from my booting lately: Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: snd0: Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: sbxvi0 at drq 5 on isa Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: snd0: Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: snd0: Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: awe0 at 0x620 on isa Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: awe0: Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: opl0 at 0x388 on isa Jul 7 10:45:01 Mipam /kernel: snd0: I never got that far until now...

After going through this twice more, I removed the STTNG: BOTF CD from my NCR875 connected DVD-ROM drive.

Look in /usr/share/examples/atapi. There you will find two scripts, one for burning audio, one for burning data. Create an image to burn with mkisofs (its in the ports collection). You can then burn it (with your setup) using (if its data for example) burndata acd1 /path/to/cd/image where /path/to/cd/image is obviously the filename of the image you create with mkisofs.

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 The following took me three weeks of cigarettes, coffee, and denting a wall with my head to finally arrive at. I, too, have a SB AWE 64, and here's what I did to get it working just like a breeze on a straight out of the box install of 3.2, having only added some network config that doesn't remotely relate: First, remove all these other configurations for sound. Anything and everything. Scripts, kernel.conf adds, everything. Next, add to your kernel: controller pnp0 device pcm0 at isa? port? tty drq 1 irq 5 flags 0x15 This will, as the PNP config files and the Handbook dictate, config the SB, let it know there's another DRQ, and run with it. Remove all other references. Now, I don't know how well this will do with MIDI, if it will even do MIDI at all. All other audio works like butter. The LINT explains that having all that 'sb*' stuff will cause conflicts; basically, pick which SB 'flavor' you have and go. Remove anything else, as conflicts will occur, and that's a Bad Thing. Now the /dev: After you compile the new kernel, before you actually boot to it, do a 'sh MAKEDEV snd1' in /dev. This will make your new devices drivers, then point some symlinks to them, making all your sound apps work happily. Yes, that IS a 'snd1'. 'snd0' will not hook up right, as seen below by the error messages. Finally, plop your Dire Straits/Steppenwolf/Rolling Stones mp3's into a directory somewhere, run your favorite amp, and just go nuts. Might I also suggest 'wmmixer' for WindowMaker, it works like total candy. Hope this does some good. If you have any questions, mail me. It might take a while to get to, but I'll get to it if you can 'ATTN: Cory' in the subject header. Cory Ringdahl PS: I do notice that the newly booted kernel detects the sound card and the configuration, somehow, seperately. It gives first: CSN 1 Vendor ID then gives: pcm1 (SB16pnp sn [serial number) Ignore this. Also, expect a: pcm0 not probed due to drq conflict with pcm1 at 1 Ignore this, too. PPS: If anyone out there knows WHY the above error messages come up, and/or if there's a smoother way to do things, lemme know. It's not pleasing to the eye, work though it does.

Hi Amy, Copying this to the list since I'm sure someone else can answer this better than I! I'm not sure about the 'a' and 'c' suffixes, but according to the intro man page (man 4 intro) the r and non-r bit is for unbuffered (i.e. raw, hence the r) and buffered devices specifically. The man page goes into more detail -- you should read that through :). -- Greg Lewis glewis@trc.adelaide.edu.au Computing Officer +61 8 8303 5083 Teletraffic Research Centre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jul 7 6:23:25 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from titan.metropolitan.at (mail.metropolitan.at [195.212.98.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A53A214D79 for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 06:23:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mladavac@metropolitan.at) Received: by TITAN with Internet Mail Service (5.0.1458.49) id ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 15:26:14 +0200 Message-ID: <55586E7391ACD211B9730000C11002761796DC@r-lmh-wi-100.corpnet.at> From: Ladavac Marino To: "'David S.

The system then kills the biggest process (well, not exactly, it uses some additional heuristics). You need more swap. My 16 MB 486 has 120 MB of swap (no, it does not page itself to death, it is just that I have a bunch of processes swapped out; the total working set is about 95 to 100 MB, but the active working set is usually under 20 MB. Hence, I get about 85% load for a standard job mix--the swap wait is about 10% which is acceptable for the intended purposes). /Marino To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jul 7 6:40:16 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from jaguar.ir.miami.edu (jaguar.ir.miami.edu [129.171.32.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0CDDD15439 for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 06:40:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marcus@miami.edu) Received: from jaguar.ir.miami.edu ("port 1712"@jaguar.ir.miami.edu [129.171.32.10]) by jaguar.ir.miami.edu (PMDF V5.2-29 #30976) with ESMTP id <0FEI005325Z27R@jaguar.ir.miami.edu> for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 09:40:14 -0400 (EDT) Date: Wed, 07 Jul 1999 09:40:14 -0400 (EDT) From: "Joe \"Marcus\" Clarke" Subject: Format of static_routes To: FreeBSD User Questions List 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 What is the format rc.conf is expecting for the static_routes field?

So far the system runs OK, but vmstat gags saying: vmstat: undefined symbols: _kmemstatistics _bucket=20 I checked the unstripped version and these symbols (sans leading "_") are there (same as the GENERIC kernel shipped on CD), but they aren't in the stripped version. As I can't seem to get my system to crash with this kernel, I may just rebuild a non-debug kernel and see how it goes, but I'm still curious as to what happened. What's the safest way to strip the kernel, or isn't there one? Thanks in advance, Richard --=20 Richard G.

Mainly thanks to the last mail i got the x11amp didnt work to well. I tryed xmpeg3 but also that one wasnt to right. finally i tryed mpg123 and that started to play actually! happiness. Oh yes, how? This is how it worked for me: 1) i Added these lines to the kernel conf file: controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 device awe0 at isa? port 0x620 device opl0 at isa? port 0x388 2) i added to the /boot/loader.rc these lines: load /kernel load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.config 3) i added to the /boot/kernel.conf these lines to the beginning of the file: pnp 1 0 os port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 pnp 1 0 enable pnp 1 1 os port0 0x208 pnp 1 1 enable pnp 1 2 os port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20 pnp 1 2 enable 4) in /dev i did: 'sh MAKEDEV snd0' 5) /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL make depend make make install MYKERNEL is the name of the kernel conf file in my case. These are the steps wich made it actually work! I am meaning to put this on the web somewhere for all ppl who have an sb awe 64 and want to get it to work! Maybe this should be a part of the freebsd homepage somewhere? Anyway, all who helped me thanks!!! i think it works now fine, i hope hehehehehe. if not i'll be asking again help. Oh yes, one last question, anybody knows a mp3 player for xwindows wich does work (i run gnome btw). Sincerely, Reinoud Koornstra.

After switching it back on it booted ok but now X refuses to start. What happens is that it switches into graphics mode (kind of a 50% gray screen with a cross as the mouse pointer) and immediately goes back to text mode. There is some information about the graphics card which looks fine, nor errors of any kind, and then the line 'Waiting for X server to shut down'.^ After that there's the command prompt. (Attached is the output from xinit > xinit.messages 2>&1 for more details) What I've tried: * Startx.err is empty. * Changing the graphics card gave the exact same results. * Different configurations via XF86Setup did not change anything. * there are no lock files of the /tmp/.X*-lock variety The funny thing is that XF86Setup leads me to believe there are no problems: it starts the server itself after all, and that runs.

I have two questions. One is FreeBSD specific the other is not. 1) I have accumulated a large amount of experience with the Linux implementation of NAT, a kernel-land trick they call "IP Masquerade". I am aware that FreeBSD, and presumably the other BSDs offer similar functionality in the form of a user-land "NATd". I need to know if it is as functional as the Linux implmentation? The Linux implementation has "helper" modules for troublesome protocols such as ftp, irc, icq, even Quake (I do HalfLife though :). Will these work across a BSD box doing NAT? 2) This one is a bit lengthy, involves ASCII artwork, and is network-general, though I hope it will apply to FreeBSD or any free 'nix. 10BaseT Ethernet A (WinNT) | ADSL --- HUB --- B (Win95) | C (whatever) All the machines in this scenario pull IP off a DHCP server over the ADSL. Transfers from any local machines, such as A sending a file to B cause the ADSL modem to go nutzo. The transfer is also very slow (by ethernet standards). Just pull the ethernet wire from the ADSL modem and it speeds up DRAMATICALLY. I am looking at putting a 'nix box on this network, and if I can make it act as a switch* between the ADSL modem and the rest of the network, than so much the better. The only "switch" I have seen or have experience with is a 3Com SuperStack ][ (I think), which is more than a little bit out of my budget. Can anyone suggest a cheap piece of network hardware or a 'nix OS that can do this? * I understand a "switch" to be a device that examines the MAC address of machines on the network, and only passes packets on to another interface if such is necessary. This would mean packets from A to B don't need to go over the modem, and would not.

The above is correct, the only minor point I would make is that ep0 device needs to be in the kernel. If pccardd does not find your ethernet card or can't make it work you can try explictly added the IRQ of the card like so; config 0x1 "ep0" 10 I found that my 3C589E need to be told what the IRQ was.

I have a Creative Soundblaster 16 Plug&Play sound card . and I can't make it work in FreeBSD 3.1 Release . (Generic kernel) #this card works fine in win95. I've read both LINT settings and the /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sound/sound.doc . According to LINT this card should be : device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 and I've got them all matched with my card . #checked them in win95|control panel|system settings and then for more info on these sort of cards LINT referes to : /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sound/sound.doc Now, in this file: , they've said : "To enable sound driver support, the controller sound code must be included in your config file:" ^^^^^^^^^^^ # SoundBlaster DSP driver - for SB, SB Pro, SB16, PAS(emulating SB) #device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 7 drq 1 ^^^^^ # SoundBlaster 16 DSP driver - for SB16 - requires sb0 device #device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 first : which config file is it refering to ? second : this is what I did when booting : boot -> pressed some key -> config>boot -c -> visual and there in Multimedia section , there is no device . and I can't Expand it. it's not even collapsed . it's just there like it's not probed at all . third : in my /dev I have no sb* . what do I do ? and one last thing : in the end of /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sound/sound.doc it says : "Probing problems: Since the SB16 uses the same IRQ and addresses for the different drivers, some of the snd drivers will not be probed because the kernel thinks there is a conflict. This can be worked-around by using the "conflicts" keyword on the sb16's device line." ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ in which file can I find/change the line on sb16's device ? is it a driver code which needs to be recompiled for this machine ?

Regarding the swap issue, I'm used to Linux where you need a separate swap partition. How do you increase swap in BSD? I'll read the handbook as well as listen to your answer! :-) -- David S.

The problem is that I don't have static IPs. all the machines on my internal net need to grab their IP information over a DHCP server on the other side of the ADSL modem. If I go with an IP router solution i'll have to go with NATd/IP Masq which means no connections incoming from the outside world. I believe when A sends to B an Ethernet packet is sent which contains the MAC addresses, and this is "below" the level of IP networking. I want to analyse that packet and not pass it on to the modem based on that criteria. Other than that, the diagram below is what I had in mind. --- Troy Compton wrote: Andrew: I can't respond to question #1 as I have no experience with Linux, but as for question #2 perhaps you could get by with something like this: A (WinNT) | ADSL --- FreeBSD --- HUB --- B (Win95) | C (whatever) With this scenario you would be using BSD as an IP router. This would block internal traffic from hitting the ADSL at all which, I think, is what you were trying to get accomplished. This takes one PC with two NIC's and a couple of hours. If this comes close to what you want I can give you some more info. I'm using a similar setup at my place with ISDN in place of ADSL. Troy ( BTW Troy : sorry for emailing this to you twice.

However, now I have a different problem. I've built a stripped down kernel (from GENERIC), and now it crashes when it boots. (This is on 3.2-RELEASE.) Basically, the bootstrap loader loads the kernel, and when I get the "hit [Enter] to boot" prompt, it crashes with a register dump and halts. If I try and do a boot -c, it does the same thing. I've compared my kernel with the LINT kernel, and I don't think I've removed anything that is necessary.

I have an APC SmartUPS 1000, a legit (APC) cable, and upsd 2.0.1.6.1 (neat numbering scheme there). I've got a copy of the generic ups.conf.120v copied as /etc/ups.conf and only modified the /dev/cuaa? part. upsd loads fine, no errors, and sits there. But it doesn't do anything. I'm not sure which serial port is which on this system so I tried setting to both cuaa0 and cuaa1 with both behaving the same way. Shouldn't upsd be giving me an error if it CAN'T see the ups? Any advice? Upsd seems to be a bit of a pain in the butt and there's a severe lack of documentation on it.

The UTP port (port 1) of SW502 is connected to the outside world. When FreeBSD boots up, the light on port 8 of the Hub is on. Later, FreeBSD says "de0: enabling 10BaseT port" and the light on port 8 goes off. After bootup, I can not do telnet or ftp. I wonder if some settings in the FreeBSD driver or hardware is wrong. Can anyone suggest what can happen in this situation. I have checked the cables and the uplink setting of the switch and hub.

Use vipw, and change the shell line. If you don't like vi, if your using csh/tcsh as your shell, just set your EDITOR variable, such as 'setenv EDITOR joe/pico/ee/whatever' > And yes i do everything as root, why not?

If your dealer will take it back, trade it in. Otherwise, sell it on ebay (if they're still up). And either way, get a nice DAT drive, or go to a surplus house and get a nice DLT at a good price.

In fact, I had four of them, one after the other, and they all had the same fault except for the one that I didn't even try because some of scsi pins were shorted out with solder. From the manufacturing dates it seemed clear that HP were sending me other people's returns. Eventually I just gave up - a complete waste of money. The problem was that they would appear to write correctly, but when reading they would start shoe-shining and eventually just stop, typically a few hundred MB in. This happened in DOS too, so it wasn't any kind of BSD problem. Apart from that :-) it worked, streaming most of the time at about 500KB/s (which is what it should be). I fixed a couple of minor problems (this was back in 2.2, so the SCSI code is completely changed) and if you look in the archives you should be able to find them. One was a harmless error message because it didn't support locking the drive, I don't remember the other. Someone from HP was unofficially very helpful about the SCSI problems, but the hardware and quality control just sucked. And they're horribly noisy too. -- Richard To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jul 7 16: 1:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gershwin.tera.com (gershwin.tera.com [207.224.230.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 74F86154BC for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 16:01:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kline@tera.com) Received: from athena.tera.com (athena.tera.com [207.224.230.169]) by gershwin.tera.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA27080; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 16:01:45 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from kline@localhost) by athena.tera.com (8.7.5/8.7.3) id QAA18282; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 16:01:43 -0700 (PDT) Date: Wed, 7 Jul 1999 16:01:43 -0700 From: Gary Kline To: Reinoud Koornstra Cc: Gary Kline , BSD Journal - general , "Sloan, Kyle" , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: standard shell.

Exactly how you can get a copy of the third ed over there in Holland (?), not sure. Maybe Walnut Creed CD has foreign-sales info on their web site. Barring that, check your local public library; I'm sure that your libraries will have it. ---But you'll probably consider it worthy of one of your bibles ...

Create a font file under /usr/share/syscons/fonts. The format is very simple; one bit per screen pixel. So, since all fonts are 8 pixels wide, one byte == one line, with varying numbers of lines per character (8, 14 or 16). I actually wrote a couple of *very* rough programs for editing syscons fonts, though there may be better ones available. fontdump will dump a font file to a human readable form, and fontmake reads the human readable format after you've edited it, and write it as a font file. Both read from the file specified by argv[1], write to standard output. Note that the files under /usr/share/syscons/fonts are uuencoded, you'll need to uudecode it before running fontdump on it, and you may as well uuencode your new font before putting it in /usr/share/syscons/fonts. Run something like, $ cp /usr/share/syscons/fonts/iso-8859-2-8x16.fnt . $ uudecode iso-8859-2-8x16.fnt $ fontdump iso-8859-2-8x16 > newfont $ (edit newfont as needed, it should be obvious what the format is.) $ fontmake newfont > iso-8859-9-8x16 Then just copy your iso-8859-9-8x16 file to /usr/share/syscons/fonts and tell the system to use it with vidcontrol. Of course, it may well be that someone has already created the font you need. It may also be worth send-pr'ing your font so it can be included with FreeBSD for other Turkish users. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jul 7 16:33: 7 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.snowcrest.net (mail.snowcrest.net [216.102.43.227]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A197614CCB for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 16:33:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from djewett@snowcrest.net) Received: from ws2983 (stkfrB034.snowcrest.net [209.78.173.34]) by mail.snowcrest.net (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id QAA16527 for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 16:32:58 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <001e01bec8d1$07cb5a00$5515a8c0@co.shasta.ca.us> From: "Derek Jewett" To: Subject: Running a process....

If you are using the sound support of the mediaGX then things get tricky.. they don't really have a sound ship, just a codec, and they trap all accesses to teh ports a sound card would use, and emulate them in the SMI bios extensions.

My understanding of FreeBSD is > that the BIOS is not used except for settup the the cpu at boot time and > for a few specialized functions such as automatic powermanagement. yes we used one from "General Software". It doesn't support the SMI stuff. (SMI is "System Management Interrupt". It kicks into a special vector (not touched by any OS because it's not standard) that emulates whatever caused the trap. you can make it trap on sound card addresses etc. this allows the SMI VMA (virtual machine Architecture) to emulate the soundcard even though it aint there. Oh yeah power management stuff kicks an SMI as well. Generally FreeBSD doesn't use the BIOS except to boot.. correct.. (which is why we didn't bother that the GS BIOS doesnt support it. (I think Intel now have SMI as well (yech)) We have a soundblaster (copy) chip on our board (when we want sound). > > Thankyou for your help. > > Robert Ramey > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jul 7 18:34: 7 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from nl.eboa.com (unknown [212.187.0.39]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7AB8E14D75 for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 18:33:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from roelof@eboa.com) Received: from eboa.com (roelof [10.0.0.2]) by nl.eboa.com (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id DAA00342; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 03:33:14 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from roelof@eboa.com) Message-ID: <378400AC.D75EE4A7@eboa.com> Date: Thu, 08 Jul 1999 03:36:44 +0200 From: Roelof Osinga Organization: eboa - engineering buro Office Automation X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.6 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Dan Busarow Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: IP alias routing problem References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dan Busarow wrote: > > static_routes="spec1 spec2" > route_spec1="194.134.1.0 194.134.128.1" > route_spec1="194.134.10.0 194.134.128.1" Alas, does not work. First symptom is that ntpdate takes forever to complete. But the clincher is that 'traceroute 194.134.5.5' wants to go through the default route of 212.187.0.39. Another thing is that the message "attempts to modify permanent arp entry for 194.134.128.1 on ep1" gets repeated ad infinitum. I do think it has something to do with aliased IP addresses. After all, it will only work when the default route is the first, thus true, IP addres. Make it the aliased one and stuff starts, of fails, to happen.

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 just wanted to let you know i recently went through hell trying to get the boot process to go right on a FreeBSD3.2.0R install i was doing on a pretty standard minimal pentium 166MHz. two IDE drives in the system, they both had a bootable copy of FreeBSD on them (from two different versions). the FreeBSD booteasy manager would (seemingly) randomly pick which drive to boot from, which would cause all sorts of interesting hangs and 'i'm stuck, help!' prompts. both drives were IDE, BIOS MODE 1, full FreeBSD partitions, in compatibility mode (165). i finally managed to get around my problem of non-bootness by arranging the drives physically as master and slave in the order i wanted them to boot from on the primary chain, then booting the install floppy, going into the partition editor, editing wd0, doing nothing, hitting 'Q', selecting 'standard boot record', then going BACK into the partition editor under wd0, and 'W'riting out the changes. the system didn't seem to have a choice but boot from wd0 after that and now things are cool. ;) however, now i have a new problem with another machine, pentiumII-233MHz, ASUS P5A-B r1.04 motherboard, single IDE drive on primary chain, 64M RAM (DIMM). it refuses to boot from wd0 once i've finished installing FreeBSD3.2.0-R from the Net. everything goes fine in the installation process, floppies boot fine, no mention of anything bad that i can see. i finish adding some packages, set the root password, exit the install, system reboots, i get 'F1 FreeBSD' (my only choice of course), then as soon as the little spinning character comes up the system stops. i can still get a response from the keyboard LEDs (numlock, etc), but the rest of the system is just gone. i have to reset, only to have the same thing happen again. i even tried changing every single piece of hardware in the box, making a brand new config, with a random celeron i had, ASUS P2B r1.10, some standard PCI S3 card.. exact same problem. tried pulling cards, replacing this and that, etc. i'm going to try installing FreeBSD3.2.0-R on it AGAIN i think, if it fails again on first bootup from harddrive i think i'm going to go back to 2.2.8-R or even 2.2.6-R, both of which have worked flawlessly on any system i installed them on.. ;( is there some sort of new drive probe at bootup? i noticed another person on here was having no luck booting his -current system after 02may1999, with a problem that sounds similar to mine. there is the remote chance that the harddrive is screwed in some way, but i have this funny feeling if i installed w95 on it things would work fine. yossman ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Yossarian Holmberg (yossman) yossman@nonline.net Senior Systems Administrator http://www.nonline.net/ National Online Inc.

If I'm understanding you, you are unable to install using FTP from your machine, using the distribution CD. The easiest fix I can think of is to create an ftp user (ftp or freebsd) and make a symbolic link to the CD within this user's home directory # adduser ... add "ftp" # cd ~ftp # ln -s /cdrom/3.2-RELEASE . Then retry the installation. I apologize if this isn't what you were asking. In that case, let me know where I got lost.

I could give you a long explanation with half baked theory and observations, but I'll make it short instead. On a number of OS's, on a number of hardware platforms, they haven't been reliable. Data goes on, and doesn't come back. I've called Seagate (who makes hard drives, many kinds of tape drives (among them an excellent DAT drive), and used to make backup software). Their own software support staff hinted strongly that DAT was better in critical environments than Travan. The hint was that "critical" meant "environments where you expect to recover the data from tape". I've resolved backup problems in several shops by just ditching the Travan drives. These weren't the cheapos, they were the "professional" NS-8 and NS-20 series drives. One customer returned 8 drives to their vendor and got a full refund - it seems they weren't the first customer who was disgusted.... In the end, I am convinced that the fundamental drive and tape design on Travan is not something I want to support.

I would greatly like to hear as much feedback as possible about a=20 project that I am proposing will be licensed under the GPL. It is a project that will bring about web mail that handles encryption and decryption. The web based email will live on an https server. This is the core of=20 what I have envisioned. There are some other goals (10 in all), that I have discussed further in a proposal located at the following url:=20 http://www.ompages.com/secureweb.txt I am not a programmer. Some of you may have seen me post around here before. I have thought this project up because my legal and technical research has led me to believe that this project is painfully needed. And it must begin now. I am hoping some people will see the merits and technical feasibility of this project. In my thinking, if we do not take charge of our=20 opportunity to make internet communications secure for the masses, we will all suffer a great deal. Please consider what I have written there, and give me whatever feedback you think is necessary to aid me in hashing out methods of bringing my ten goals to fruition. Thank you all. Please note, that if you have trouble connecting it is because my domain lives on a dial-up connection and tzo.com provides me with dns. Sometimes my isp cuts off my ppp connection.

Tonight I was playing around with my gateway. Which has a DHCP connection to my ISP. I made some changes to /etc/dhclient.conf, but with each new lease, it appeared as if the changes were being ignored. So I decided to kill DHCP. But a kill -QUIT pid. Then I restarted it with "/usr/local/dhclient ed0". Things went well for a bit. Then all comms to my gateway stopped. Some checking found that ifconfig -ed1 showed an ip address of 0.0.0.0 and restoring the correct ip address fixed the problem. Would this be expected? I *seem* to recall a problem with dhcp and modifications to other interfaces. Anyone else remember? I don't know what version of dhcp I have installed and I don't know how to find out. /var/db/pkg gives conflicting results. It contains isc- dhcp2.b1.6 but I doubt I have that installed because the file sizes/dates differ: # which dhclient /sbin/dhclient # ls -lt /sbin/dhclient -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 205808 Feb 28 09:36 /sbin/dhclient ls -l /usr/ports/net/isc-dhcp2/work/dhcp-2.0b1pl6/client/dhclient -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 10 501600 Aug 22 1998 /usr/ports/net/isc- dhcp2/work/dhcp-2.0b1pl6/client/dhclient -- Dan Langille - DVL Software Limited The FreeBSD Diary - http://www.FreeBSDDiary.org/freebsd/ NZ FreeBSD User Group - http://www.nzfug.nz.freebsd.org/ The Racing System - http://www.racingsystem.com/racingsystem.htm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jul 8 3:19:58 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from etri.re.kr (mail.etri.re.kr [129.254.9.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0F82F14E30 for ; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 03:19:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from parkjs@hana.etri.re.kr) Received: from hana.etri.re.kr (parkjs.etri.re.kr [129.254.187.43]) by etri.re.kr (8.8.8+Sun/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA27107 for ; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 19:19:45 +0900 (KST) Message-ID: <37847B91.BA3B78C@hana.etri.re.kr> Date: Thu, 08 Jul 1999 19:21:05 +0900 From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?=B9=DA=C1=D8=BC=AE?= X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Does the freeBSD 2.2.7 support 3COM PCMCIA 3c589c card?

Of course the handbook details a nice way to do this that I hadn't found when I posted the original question. Summary: Once you have your tun interface working the following in /etc/rc.conf should do the trick: network_interfaces="lo0 tun0" # More if you need them. ifconfig_tun0= # Nothing here! Then create /etc/start_if.tun0 with: ppp [your startup options here] I was working from the pedantic ppp primer, so my start_if.tun0 is: ppp -auto -alias demand Worked like a charm for me.

I have been using ntpdate manually on occasion to sync time from otc1.psu.edu. But I don't know how to make the box a time server for my local net. I've tried xntpd, but then it takes the port and prevents ntpdate from running. And I still couldn't get it to serve time to a local FreeBSD box running 3.2. This is just a home network and time isn't critical, but I want to sync time from the Net, maybe once a day or once a week, but serve time to local machines any time they request it. help... cc me please, I unsubscribed from the list due to heavy traffic.

If you have xntpd running, ntpdate is not needed. xntpd is both client and server. you should have something like: server laker.net server 127.127.1.0 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 driftfile /etc/ntp.drift Your ISP is a strat-2 ntp server already; no need to bug a strat-1 server for your little dialup net. The 127.127.1.0 "server" is really your internal clock, "fudged" to be a low priority strat-10 server; it'll fall back to that when your link is down. You will also want to add port 123 to your keepalive and dialout filters in ppp, so that the NTP packets don't force a dialout or keep your line up if there's no other traffic. That way, then your link is up it'll synch to laker.net. When your link is down it'll free-run, but still serve time to your internal net. > This is just a home network and time isn't critical, but I want to sync > time from the Net, maybe once a day or once a week, but serve time to > local machines any time they request it. > > help... > > cc me please, I unsubscribed from the list due to heavy traffic. standard operating procedure for this list.

Hello, We have been experiencing an ineteresting network problem, I'm not exactly sure what it is rooted in, but I thought I would ask around just in case it is related to somthing in FreeBSD. We have two servers directly connected to the internet through an ADSL connection, one is running FreeBSD 3.1, the other is running NT Server 4.0. The FreeBSD server is our internet http and mail server, the NT server is acting as a gateway to our internal network running Microsoft Proxy. Frequently (at least once a day) the FreeBSD server will lose contact with the outside world. What I mean by this is that nobody ouside of our subnet can access it, not even ping works. While this occurs, we can still ping the NT server from the outside (verifying that the ADSL still works), and we can still access the FreeBSD server from within the subnet without any problems. After an hour or so, the problem clears itself up and the FreeBSD server goes live again. I have noticed this happen on several occasions while using ssh to access the FreeBSD server from home. I would be working, lose my connection and no longer have any contact with the server for about an hour, then it would mysteriously reappear. We have also observed that when we lose outside contact with the server, if we reboot it, it comes back immediately, indicating that the problem is likely related to some server configuration issue. I know that this problem could be related to anything, but any insight that could be offered would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

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 following my own post, i discovered later last night that if i changed the BIOS on the system to read the HDD with LBA mode, instead of NORMAL mode, the bootup from the HDD suddenly started working. maybe this sounds like newbieness, but i didn't realize that the FreeBSD boot manager needed to have the drive geometry translated for it on bootup. i know that it seems to ignore what the system BIOS is saying AFTER the initial bootstrap phase, when it's mounting all the drive slices it appears to be reading the C/H/S straight from the HDD's BIOS itself, but while it's doing the initial boot drive selection/bootstrap loading it seems to NEED that drive translation service provided by the system BIOS. perhaps it depends what harddrive you're using (HDD brand/model) and what BIOS you're using on the system.. i haven't quite determined what the full details are yet, but i definitely learned something last night. ;) even though i installed FreeBSD in on the system with only NORMAL mode from the BIOS, changing it after the install seems to work fine.. not sure if i'm going to run into problems later, but assuming my 'theory' is correct about FreeBSD ignoring the system BIOS after initial boot i don't think i'm going to have a problem. thanks for listening. ;) yossman ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Yossarian Holmberg (yossman) yossman@nonline.net Senior Systems Administrator http://www.nonline.net/ National Online Inc.

I'd look at http://www.corpsys.com/ they often have good drives at decent prices. Mostly refurbished or surplus... but the prices are good, and they have a warranty. I've been happy with them. Look at the "Web Store" section. The currently have a Archive SCSI2 F/H 16/32GB DAT-Includes a 4 cassette magazine for $495. And several DLT drives for less than $700. As to the quality of the backup.... have you restored anything yet? A backup is only as good as your last restore.... If it's new, see if the dealer will take it back.....

Are you actually running 3.1 or trying to install it. If you are trying to install it, you didn't do your homework. Read http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html because it tells you that two floppies are required because the boot is too large. Download the files, follow the instructions, and it should work better next time. BTW, I did an install from a Win98 Startup disk the first time and have since created boot floppies using dd to write them from FreeBSD. If you are running 3.1 and are having problems, then you need to tells us what is wrong and someone will help you. BTW, I have a BX6r2 board but it is one of my Windows NT systems with a P-II 400 for a cpu. In a pure computation mode the P-II and PC100Mhz memory can be significantly faster than the Celeron 433 system using PC66 memory. I see the 50% difference in memory speed. A work unit from Seti@Home requires 50% longer on the Celeron than it does on the BX6r2 system.

I have discovered that if I am uploading from both my FreeBSD workstation and Linux workstation at the same time, it doesn't seem to effect the individual throughput rates. In other words, the aggregate throughput is addative. Example: When each machine is uploading by itself... Machine A uploads at 40kB/s Machine B uploads at 70kB/s When they are uploading simultaneously... Machine A uploads at 40kB/s Machine B uploads at 70kB/s for a total of 110kB/s....no slow down ?!? If my coloc'd server is capable of receiving 110kB/s when both of my workstations are uploading, then why won't it receive the same when only one of the workstations is uploading.

I'll toss in my observations (since I'm currently transitioning from 2.2.8 -> 3.2 on one system). Before a port passes and is published in the ports' tree, its checksum matches. If you have to over-ride this, then somewhere something is broken. It's wise to clean your /usr/ports/distfiles/, update the ports tree (by CVSup or by downloading the latest port tarball) for every port. __And its dependencies.__ Yes, it takes time.

This seems to be a common reverse DNS problem. You have one machine in the host table and the client isn't in the destination machine's host table. When you telnet to the destination, the destination machine can't find the client's ip address and appears to be a sleep.

That is at the largest size when you use LBA. Since we don't know what kind of disks you are talking about, there isn't much that can be commented on.

Fix: The change information is being written out, in fact, but to the wrong location. move /kernel.config to /boot/kernel.conf (if it exists, otherwise there were no changes to save) and add the following lines to /boot/loader.rc: load /kernel load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.conf autoboot 5 This will cause the kernel change information to be read in and used properly (and you just learned a little about the new 3-stage loader in the process, so the exercise wasn't a total loss). > Thank you, > Pedro Salenbauch > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > -- FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org My Webpage http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~markov _______________________________________________________________ Mark Ovens, CNC Apps Engineer, Radan Computational Ltd.

Hi All!

What motherboard is the better for SMP ? I can choose between:

  ASUS P2BD
  Supermicro P6DBU (with AIC 7890 onboard)
  Supermicro P6DGE

I have 3 of the P6DGEs and have had next to no troubles with them (they are picky about the memory they use, be sure it is of first rate quality, see the approved Supermicro recommended memory page http://www.supermicro.com/TECHSUPPORT/FAQs/Memory_vendors.htm )

The default version with FreeBSD is 2.7.2.1, this is the only one verified to build kernels. You can install gcc-2.8.1 (which you use as gcc -o hello hello.c). This won't overwrite the default so you will have 2 versions. I doubt, however, that you will need anymore than the default. OK, you done "Hello, World".

The problem is that you have to look at more than hardware. You have major items in install and etc. The other problem is that some items aren't correct. For example, the memory requirement is still stated as 5MB and everyone knows that you need 12MB to do an install. I looked at the Linux HCL and think that is a good template. I really think something like that needs to be added to HTML documents at FreeBSD.org.

[Redirected to -questions -- dhw] You should be able to merely edit /etc/rc.conf or /etc/rc.conf.local (depending on where you made your changes... and which release of FreeBSD you're using). You will probably need to boot single-user to do so: at boot time, you will probably get to a point where there's a 10-second "count-down"; during that period, press the space bar, theen enter "boot -s". You will be prompted for an opportunity to override the default shell; I don't bother (at this point). Once you get a shell prompt, enter fsck -p and if all goes well, mount -a then edit the appropriate files. (The command ls -ltr /etc/rc* can be handy for determining which ones were changed most recently; they appear last in the list.) Once the changes are made, I'd just reboot. Others will undoubtedly have other suggestions.... :-} Cheers, david -- David Wolfskill dhw@whistle.com UNIX System Administrator voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (888) 347-0197 FAX: (650) 372-5915 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jul 8 13: 8:14 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from nzdb.com (unknown [202.50.186.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 7CFC814CF0 for ; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 13:07:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from philip.jensen@nzdb.com) Received: by nzdb.com(Lotus SMTP MTA v4.6.3 (778.2 1-4-1999)) id 4C2567A8.006E7571 ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 08:06:30 +1200 X-Lotus-FromDomain: NEW ZEALAND DAIRY BOARD From: philip.jensen@nzdb.com To: jodak@csc.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Message-ID: <4C2567A8.006E73F5.00@nzdb.com> Date: Thu, 8 Jul 1999 21:09:51 +1300 Subject: Re: 3Com 3c509 Problem Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi The 3c509 driver is listed as *buggy*. However I would like to point you to an posting I wrote when I succeeded with my 3c509. If you go the following web site you can do some searches for other posting/problems --> http://www.freebsd.org/support.html http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/cgi-bin/newsread?156772 ===start post === Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: Success getting 3c509 working... Hi Just wanted to share my experience getting 3c509-combo card working with FreeBSD. I was having a significant amount of trouble, and after searching http://www.freebsd.org almost gave up when I read the 3c509 driver was buggy having already tried a number of different settings on the card. Anyways I continued to pursue a solution. What was really interesting was /var/log/messages showed me it found the 3c509 card at io=300 and irq=10, it even returned the Ethernet hardware address, which really impressed me (I am new to FreeBSD having cut my teeth on SCO Unix/Xenix 12 years ago, if anyone remembers that). But I still could not ping anything else on the network, even though running the DOS based 3c5x9cfg Echo-server utility showed the card could communicate with another card on the network, so no hardware or cabling problem. So to cut a long story short, to fix the problem I ran the 3c5x9cfg programs Auto-configure utility, it changed the irq to 5. Then I modified the kernel configuration making irq=5, then recompiled the kernel, 45 minutes later (I only have a 486DX66), and voila! NB: If I tried to force irq=10 (which was how the kernel was configured) the 3c5x9cfg utility would complain about conflicts, even though checking /var/log/messages showed no other devices on irq=10. Anyways I hope this helps someone else with 3c509 problems. Steps:- 1. Run DOS based utility 3c5x9cfg Auto-configure which sets the io and irq for the card. 2. Configure the kernel with the correct io and irq settings for the card per the 3c5x9cfg utility, and recompile. cheers Philip Jensen ===end post=== If you don't understand my posting, please feel free to e-mail me. hope this helps Phil J On 07/07/99 01:06:50 jodak wrote: >Dear Sirs: > >Experienced a problem setting up the 3Com 3c509B ethernet card (ISA bus) >under FreeBSD 3.2 (Walnut Creek CD-ROM).

As root and using cu try: cu -l /dev/cuaa0 and when you see that "Connected" string, cut and paste the following into the screen: ATE1 Q0 V1 X1 M1 L2 AT&W Then try typing something like ATDT5555555 and listen. If nothing happens ((you should hear the modem dialing 5555555)) on either /dev/cuaa0 or /dev/cuaa1, check your handware connections. If everything looks good you need to return the modem. Probably a lemon. Summary: Make sure FBSD sees your modem Be certain of its serial port and check your hw connections Initialize it with cu -l AT-string. Listen.

If you compile qpopper out of the ports collection and don't want these .userid.pop temp files lying around, here are the files that you need to look at: INSTALL, section 7.2 (included in the qopper distribution): h) KEEP_TEMP_DROP - Keep the .user.pop file. It can determine the last time a user has accessed his/her mail. Makefile (the ports Makefile, not the qpopper Makefile): O_DEFS = -DSETPROCTITLE -DKEEP_TEMP_DROP -DBSD44_DBM -DBIND43 -DBULLDB -DNONAUTHFILE='"/etc/ftpusers"' -DSKEY Just remove '-DKEEP_TEMP_DROP' from the ports Makefile, make deinstall, make clean, make install. FYI, these .userid.pop files are not lock files per se. Qpopper moves the contents of the user's incoming mail folder into this file. If the user leaves the mail on the server, then qpopper moves whatever mail remains back into their incoming mail folder. This can be disk io intensive if, say, the user has 70 meg of mail waiting for them.

I'm interested in all experiences, good or > bad... Let me know. I have an ExaByte 8505XL, and I'm very happy with it, overall. It's fairly quick, good capacity, and I can usually use commercial (video) 8mm tapes in it and save money. It's big drawback is that it's seek time is a LOT longer than that of a DAT or DLT. I don't know that I'd buy another one if this one died, but I am happy with it, and I do trust it. I've used more than a few DAT drives. I like Archive and Seagate a lot. I can live with HP. The HP's seem to flake out and need to be overhauled. Things might have gotten better since I stopped using them... I wouldn't know about that. I've had good luck with, and heard good reports on, the Seagate 12/24 gig DAT drive.... the Scorpion I think. As to DLT drives, I've used 'em, but not often. A bit rich for my blood. Those who use 'em seem to love 'em. Very fast. However, be aware that there are only two drive manufacturers now. Quantum and Tandberg. If it doesn't say Tandberg, it's a Quantum. (As far as I know, Tandberg isn't OEM'ing yet.) Quantum's are good drives, so the point isn't "avoid quantum", it's "don't pay more than you have to, they're all the same damn drive". Another consideration.... the 4000 series is rated at about 1.5mbps. The 7000 at about 5... if memory serves. Many servers (your hardware, backup software, server load, and OS will cause the mileage to vary) can't deliver a byte stream fast enough to keep a 7000 series drive in streaming mode, so it goes into start-stop mode. This destroys the throughput.... slower than a 4000 series drive in practice. So, unless you are VERY sure you have the bandwidth (and more than one person has been surprised here), stay with a 4000 series drive. Or two 4000 series drives for more capacity.

I was wondering if there is a way to route any requests destined to a port on the FreeBSD box, to route to a defined port on a machine behind the NAT. For example, if I wanted to run Microsoft Exchanger Server on my internal Windows NT machine port 110, is there any way that requests to port 110 the NAT machine be routed to my Exchange server internally.

Well this always starts a flame war :) For the base system /etc/rc runs the show with help from /etc/rc.* After the more or less monolithic main startup sequence it also runs scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and any other directory you specify. The /usr/local/etc/rc.d stuff is kinda sysv like. All the ports for the daemons I've used are now adding their startup scripts to /usr/local/etc/rc.d. You can even name/number the scripts in SYSV fashion to control startup order. (unlike sysv the script name *has* to end in .sh and it also has to have the execute bit set and the first letter has no meaning) For restarting sendmail you can use this little script #!/bin/sh PID=`head -1 /var/run/sendmail.pid` kill -1 $PID I call it smc to go along with ndc. You could even throw a test in to see if it was called with reload, restart, stop ... and change the signal you send.

DDS-1 was the first tape format I was exposed to that wasn't based on QIC (Quarter Inch Casette) technology. (Its based on a 4-mil derivative of DAT and uses a helical-scan technology, like VCRs.) QIC has paseed into the "attractive nusance" stage. I liked DDS-1, because it was fairly fast, fairly high capacity, and not terribly expensive. I think we were getting the bare mechanisms from HP for about 500$ (US) each. (2GB capacity, 4GB with compression, I think.) DDS-1 had one disadvantage, we couldn't run any of the drives for more than three years (nightly backups) without them wearing out. DDS-2 was the tape format preferred by the UNIX heads at our shop. It was very similar to DDS-1 (used the same tape), but featured hardware based data compression. (4GB only) On UNIX, where the backup software was the definition of primitive, hardware compression was the only type easily available. The hardware compression, and the fact that the UNIX guys bought from higher priced VARs, made the DDS-2 stuff quite a bit more expensive. Maybe 1k$ (US) per drive. I seem to remember that Exabyte jumped into the fray at this point. Their drives were based on 8-mil DAT technology, and because they had more surface area, they had a higher capacity. I had a SunOS running friend that had exclusively Exabyte. I tend to see exabyte drives in Sun shops. I think Exabyte was trying to appeal to the elitist part of the UNIX user. And to a degree, I think they succeeded. I can't argue that the Exabyte drives are or are not worth the extra money. I also can't argue that the drives aren't better. *BUT* DLT fell into my lap before I had to face the issue. I was on the PC side of the house, when the UNIX guys were talked into buying their first DLT drive. Lets just say that their favorite sales rep had more sex appeal than brains. She sold them a DLT4000 patched to appear as a Exabyte 8505XL. Why would anyone do such a thing? Because HP hadn't built in support for anything bigger than an Exabyte 8505XL into HP-UX at that point. To get drivers for a DLT4000 required that you buy the HP branded version of the DLT4000. No one knew that yet though. (Closed vendor hardware support sucks! Long live semi-open platforms!) Of course, that whole mess didn't work. I was able to get the drive from them, just to let them save face. They ended up buying a HP DLT4000 instead. Once I was able to re-configure the DLT4000's firmware to show what it really was, I was able to put it into use. (Took some serious VAR abuse to get the correct tools.) I should say, at this point, that the reason for the evolution of tape drives, is that the servers that they are asked to back up are growing continually larger. Consequently, to avoid using several tapes to do a full backup, we were in need of a two fold increase in tape capactiy almost every six months. DDS-1 -> DDS-2 -> Exabyte -> DLT4000 -> DLT7000 There are at least three advantages to DLT. One, is the increase in capacity. The native capacity of a DLT4000 tape is 20GB. Compressed is 40GB. That is enough to handle most systems full-backup needs with one tape. (RAID arrays.) Second, is their speed. I don't remember the numbers off the top of my head, but 20MB / second seems to ring a bell. Third, is the fact that they use a relatively low-tech approach to tape utilization. In other words, they don't (seem to) suffer the wear out problems that I've seen with helical scan tape drives. Comparing the MTBF numbers, and my personal experience with helical scan tape drives, I wouldn't be supprised to see DLT drives work for 10years. (Hopefully they'll be obsoleted though.) DLT does also have some pitfalls: One, is that they are expensive. I seem to remember that it was usual for the DLT4000 to go for about 4k$ when the first came out. Second, is that it takes quite a while for the tapes to load load and unload. This can be a problem in tape jukeboxes, or if you tend to need bits of data off the tapes often. Third, is that they really belong on a UPS, and with operators who are not idiots. We had a problem with a unit that was repeatedly power cycled, while in use. Because of the complexity of the tape pickup spool, it is possible to get a tape stuck inside, (if an idiot has access to the drive). Removing a stuck tape can require a dissasembly of the unit, and is not for the mechanically dis-inclined. (Getting rid of the idiot is a good idea also.) DLT7000 is very similar to the DLT4000, differing in having a more complex way of putting the tracks on the tape. More tracks on the same tape, means higher capacity. 35GB uncompressed, 70GB compressed. There are some 12/25GB Sony AIT drives out ther too. They are supposed to have faster seek times, and nifty feature like memory-in-casette. They would seem to be great drives to base tape-jukeboxes on, but I haven't had a chance to try them myself. Hope that helps. [RC] At 01:54 PM 7/8/99 -0700, you wrote: >>I've resolved backup problems in several shops by just ditching the >>Travan drives.

If so, DAT is 8mil right? So HP isn't DAT its 4mil. My theory is, if your servers can't keep up a stream of data sufficient to keep a DLT7000 streaming, then you need to rethink how you build servers. If you go with multiple 4000s, get three so you can stripe across them.

Here's the story: I recently installed (via FTP) FreeBSD 3.2 on my second IDE hard disk. Unfortunately, i made a mistake when i was making partitions, and as a result, my primary HD (all of it) is marked as a active extended DOS partition. It has the boot manager needed to load FreeBSD. Since then, when i try to even access the disk, the kernel panics, i get a "general protection fault" and the system reboots. This is caused by commands like sysinstall, fdisk, boot0cfg, mount, dd etc. I tried to boot from a windows diskette in order to format it, but that didn't work. I tried changing the sequence of disks (i.e. the FreeBSD disk as Primary master and the second as primary slave, the FreeBSD disk as primary master and the second as secondary slave... I tried another dozen combinations, including no HDs at all etc) but it didn't work. I tried changing the boot sequence, but it also didn't work. I tried booting from a PartitionMagic floppy, no luck either. I tried to boot from a bootable windows CD, but nothing happened. The only way to load something other than FreeBSD is not to have the disk connected to my system, but then i can't format it... Does anyone have a solution how can I format my disk? I have included my loader.conf and rc.conf scripts as well as my kernel configuration file.

You can do better. Make the mgetty+sendfax port and run vgetty instead of mgetty. Set up your voice stuff (you'll need to copy the vgetty example config manually) and then create a dtmf.sh script. You can then dial your home machine on a handset, type in the correct DTMF sequence and have your machine connect to the 'net - you don't need to have direct dial access from your laptop :-) Ppp happily does this if you just give it a reasonable redial period & frequency. > thx > geza -- Brian Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !

So, load average = 1 implies you've got a busy machine which is using 100% of it's CPU(s) (irrespective of how many CPU's you have). If the load goes to 5.3, then you are running enough processes to keep 5 CPU's 100% busy and one more CPU at 30%. Running real-time processes such as MPEG conversions, image manipulations, etc will all strive to get 100% CPU usage, so running 2 together will give a load over 2, 3 together => load of 3, etc. HTH AJ > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Alejandro > RamМrez > Sent: Friday, 9 July 1999 10:10 > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Uptime basics!!! > > > Hi, > > I like to see the CPU usage at a given time, and when i > write uptime > command it gives me diferent values for 1,5 and 15 minutes > average, but my > simple question is wich its the highest value that a CPU can > have, because I > have notice that in sometimes it gives me 0.50, and in > another times it > givesme 2.35, and also I have seen numbers like 5.48 and I > dont know how to > interpret that in a % way. > > Thanks in Advance > > Ales > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jul 8 18:52:18 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dt054n86.san.rr.com (dt054n86.san.rr.com [24.30.152.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4D6ED15541 for ; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 18:52:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Received: from localhost (doug@localhost) by dt054n86.san.rr.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA01140; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 18:52:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Doug@gorean.org) Date: Thu, 8 Jul 1999 18:52:09 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug X-Sender: doug@dt054n86.san.rr.com To: =?X-UNKNOWN?Q?Alejandro_Ram=EDrez?= Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Uptime basics!!!

I have some solaris servers that run with a load average of 75. :) However, this makes more sense once you understand what the numbers mean. There is no "percentage" involved, the number is the number of processes in the queue waiting for a slice of CPU time. If you have a load average of less than 1 it generally means that every process is getting as much cpu as it needs as soon as it needs it. If your load average is more than one, it means that there is at least one process that is always waiting for cpu time. Whether this is acceptable to you or not is purely a subjective measurement. If your system is "fast enough" for you, then your load average is fine. If your system is sluggish and you notice that your load average is 2 or 5 (or 75) then you have to take steps to correct it.=20 =09Depending on what you are measuring the percentage of idle cpu displayed in 'top' output is usually more significant, however this depends on the process. A heavily loaded IRC server for example actually becomes *more* efficient as it approaches certain peaks on various resource utilization curves. For instance, I had a server that would regularly run 5,000 clients or more. The first 2,000 loaded the cpu from about 0% to about 80%. The next 2,000 went from 80% to 99% or more, but once it hit its stride I could fit another 1,500 clients on without breaking a sweat. Unfortunately our ircd code sucked, so we peaked out around there. However some efnet servers running an almost identical OS configuration and better ircd code eventually were able to break my record, then smashed it to bits with about 8,000 simultaneous connections.= =20 =09Hmmm.. I had a point here somewhere... oh yes. My point is that depending on what you are measuring there probably isn't going to be a nice, tidy number to represent it.

HP is DDS, which uses the same form factor cartridges as DAT, but they are *not* DAT. Most HP drives will reject DAT tapes unless you override a configuration option. Exabyte uses the same form factor as Video 8, but again, the cartridges are different. You're asking for trouble using Video 8 cartridges in Exabytes: they'll work, sort of, but you'll get a much higher soft error rate than with real data grade cartridges. And there's really not much difference in price if you know where to shop; I used to be able to get data cartridges cheaper than Video 8. They worked fine in my video camera :-) > My theory is, if your servers can't keep up a stream of data > sufficient to keep a DLT7000 streaming, then you need to rethink how > you build servers. > > If you go with multiple 4000s, get three so you can stripe across them. > (grin) I have a DLT4000. I can't keep it streaming, but it still goes faster than my Exabyte and DDS drives. If you have any ideas on how to keep it streaming, I'd be open to them.

You said above-- correctly--that you could get (about) 4GB out of a DDS-1 drive with compression (in fact, that would only be with 120m DDS-2 tapes; the longest DDS-1 tapes were 90m and would give you about 2.5 GB compressed). DDS-2 tapes were (are) only 120m, and they will give you 4GB uncompressed or about 8 GB compressed. > On UNIX, where the backup software was the definition of primitive, > hardware compression was the only type easily available.

What is this thing trying to do here? It can't possibly return a valid value, since "netstat -rn" prints "default" for the default route (not 0.0.0.0), and ifconfig never prints the string "inet addr". If you're trying to get your current dialup IP number, run this script from /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup, where you can pass the IP number directly from ppp and skip all this "guess our IP based on our default route" trickery. > now=`date` > > lynx -source -auth=$user_id:$password \ > http://www.yi.org/bin/dyndns.fcgi?ipaddr=$ip_addr | \ > sed -e "s,^,$now: ," -e "s,<.*\?>,,g" > > > So yes, some variables are set, but this shouldn't affect lynx would it? > > >Also consider using fetch, which was designed to be used in > >non-interactive places like cron scripts. > > I don't know how/if fetch can be used in this instance. It looks like it could; fetch uses $HTTP_AUTH instead of a commandline option, but the manpage explains that well enough. "fetch -v" will also print the entire error message from the remote server in case of an error, so it's easier to debug. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jul 8 19:42:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from implode.root.com (root.com [209.102.106.178]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A9DE014D0C for ; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 19:42:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from root@implode.root.com) Received: from implode.root.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by implode.root.com (8.8.8/8.8.5) with ESMTP id TAA04489; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 19:41:39 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199907090241.TAA04489@implode.root.com> To: "Andrew Johns" Cc: "=?iso-8859-1?Q?Alejandro_Ram=EDrez?=" , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Uptime basics!!!

If the >load goes to 5.3, then you are running enough processes to keep 5 CPU's >100% busy and one more CPU at 30%. Uh, no, that is not what the load average means. The load average is a composite number that includes both runnable processes and processes that are blocked in a short term wait (usually disk I/O). This means that for machines that are doing heavy disk I/O, the load average could be quite high even when the CPU is 95% idle. On wcarchive, for example, the load average typically runs around 40-50 with 50% CPU idle time. This may sound high, but there are 38 disk drives on the machine, so although the drives are fairly busy, the I/O is spread out over all of them - keeping the interactive response time low and overall performance quite high. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org Creator of high-performance Internet servers - http://www.terasolutions.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jul 8 19:43:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 62DF014D0C for ; Thu, 8 Jul 1999 19:43:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from rainbow5.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.1.2] ident=exim) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.02 #1) id 112Ojj-0001Rp-00; Fri, 09 Jul 1999 01:41:56 +0100 (envelope-from ben@rainbow5.scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from rainbow5.scientia.demon.co.uk (ident=ben) by rainbow5.scientia.demon.co.uk with local (Exim 3.02 #1) id 112Ojk-000Clv-00; Fri, 09 Jul 1999 01:41:56 +0100 (envelope-from ben@rainbow5.scientia.demon.co.uk) Date: Fri, 9 Jul 1999 01:41:56 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: Mark Ovens Cc: Evren Yurtesen , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: how to create a font ?

It can't possibly return a >valid value, since "netstat -rn" prints "default" for the default route >(not 0.0.0.0), and ifconfig never prints the string "inet addr". I have no idea. I've checked with two other FreeBSD users who use yi.org. All of us get nothing from that part of the script. Luckly, whatever is at the other end is clever enough to figure out what the IP address is anway. >If you're trying to get your current dialup IP number, run this script >from /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup, where you can pass the IP number directly >from ppp and skip all this "guess our IP based on our default route" >trickery. Actually, it is much more complex than that. The IP address is on an ADSL router. It has an http interface. I query that via another script to detect a change in IP at the router. When that occurs, I kick off this script. >> now=`date` >> >> lynx -source -auth=$user_id:$password \ >> http://www.yi.org/bin/dyndns.fcgi?ipaddr=$ip_addr | \ >> sed -e "s,^,$now: ," -e "s,<.*\?>,,g" >> >> >> So yes, some variables are set, but this shouldn't affect lynx would it? >> >> >Also consider using fetch, which was designed to be used in >> >non-interactive places like cron scripts. >> >> I don't know how/if fetch can be used in this instance. > >It looks like it could; fetch uses $HTTP_AUTH instead of a commandline >option, but the manpage explains that well enough.

There's a new samba book call "Teach Yourself Samba in 24 hours," but I have never read that. You can also go to www.samba.org, and look at it's troubleshooting section. They have a 9 step troubleshooting kinda procedure to help you find your problem. Also, man smb.conf would also help. Frankie "Charles A.

Well, I'm not sure it'll work but, if you're using something like tar, cpio, or dump to write the tape, you might want to try using team(1) to buffer the data as it goes to the drive. The team(1) program was, I believe, originally written by Joerg Wunsch to keep cdrom burners supplied with a constant, steady stream of data. It might also be able to keep the DLT4000 happy. You can find team(1) in the ports/packages collection.

We used software compression, and were able to get approx 4GB on one 90m tape. But DDS-1 drives had a native capacity of 2GB on a 90m tape? And with software compression, they should get 4GB (ideal). I could be wrong on this as well, but those numbers seem to go with the HP SureStore 5000 drives, and they are DDS-1 aren't they? >> On UNIX, where the backup software was the definition of primitive, >> hardware compression was the only type easily available. > >I don't understand this statement.

The UNIX admins used a DCLZ capable version of the DDS drive. *Not the DDS-2 Unit.* 1k$ for a DDS-2 tape drive would make more sense. I think the DCLZ tape drive's data format would have been DDS-DC. They were able to get 4GB on a 90m tape without using software-based data compression. I think these drives had a dip switch that allowed the hardware compression to be turned on or off. When the compression was turned off, the DCLZ was essentially the same as the DDS (non-DDS-DC) model. > >> I seem to remember that Exabyte jumped into the fray at this point.

Do you think this is a non-issue? I've not had to remove a broken tape myself, and wouldn't be daunted by the task. But two of the administrators I work with have had to take turns pulling broken tape from the pick up reel, and were a little put off by the incident. A statistical anomaly? I don't know.

My company is using gcc on HP-UX 10.20 and 11.0. I installed all versions of gcc starting from 2.5 on all our machines - HP boxes, IBM RS 6000 boxes, Sequent Boxes. As a result I am trying to follow any news in gcc world. There is a difference between 2.7.1.1 and 2.8.1 in terms of C++ (I believe, since version 2, gcc and g++ were combined as one compiler g++). 2.8.1 works with templates much closer to C++ standard v.3.0, but still doesn't have namespaces, correct exceptions and something else. According to docs, gcc 2.8.1 does a little better job in terms of optimizations. It can affect you if you use -O3 parameter. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Ovens To: Rezamys Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Thursday, July 08, 1999 3:09 PM Subject: Re: newbie: how to compile & run C program in 3.2Release? >On Thu, Jul 08, 1999 at 11:33:07AM +0800, Rezamys wrote: >> Hi Mark, >> Okay, tried it last nite.

In general, my advice is to try starting from the GENERIC kernel and making sure you can compile that first. Then you can make a few changes at a time and narrow the trouble down. In this case, a quick look showed me at least one thing that looks funny, though: you have both sc0 and vt0 enabled, which is surely one console driver too many. Be well.

You should be able to get sendmail to queue the mail and defer delivery using the DeliveryMode=q option. This may be enough to prevent dial-outs; the only thing that I can think of that would still cause one is a DNS lookup that sendmail might perform while queueing the message. I do not know that sendmail does perform a DNS lookup, but that would be the next thing I'd check after setting DeliveryMode=q. > TIA, > Michael > > > P.S.

If you want to fsck filesystems on boot, even though they have been cleanly umounted on shutdown, boot into standalone mode and then do a fsck -f. then reboot (not strictly neccessary, but a good idea anyway, because / is mounted read-only--you cannot boot without at least /, and the kernel mounts it for you).

Has any one done a "blow by blow" comparison?

I intend to use Linux/Unix as a development platform and also as a "home user system" in place of OS/2, which seems to be dying ...

Sendmail may actually do several DNS lookups, to get MX records and corresponding A records. It may also do lookups for name canonicalisation.

DAT is Digital Audio Tape. It got used by data processing types because it was (arguably) the first (affordable) tape system designed to be a digital tape system. 8mm is video. Also... just as when you say DLT you are usually saying "Quantum", as far as I know all the 8mm data drives are made by ExaByte, no matter whose name is on the faceplate. > > My theory is, if your servers can't keep up a stream of data > > sufficient to keep a DLT7000 streaming, then you need to rethink > > how you build servers. An interesting theory. One that doesn't really survive a street test. A key bottleneck is how fast SCSI drives can REALLY deliver data. With a RAID, you can usually keep a 7000 series drive streaming. With plain old SCSI drives, no. Not in the real world.

Once a bunch of user software has been installed over the net, from the user's point of view (and to some extent, the adminstrator's), is FreeBSD more or less different from the Linux variants as they are from each other? And if the answer is that they are all pretty similar, then perhaps a customized version of FreeBSD could be prepared that emphasizes the similarities, distributed as FreeLinux or LinuxBSD. (I'm thinking in terms of a FreeBSD kernel with a Linux API in front, a reshuffled directory hierarchy, and several of the more prominent Linux applications--sort of a Linux emulation on steroids.) Why? You ask, "Why?!" I'm curious as to how many users would be attracted to a product incorporating the "Linux" handle, plus greater out-of-the box Linux compatibility, compared to more or less the same thing without it. After all, What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet. -Greg Shenaut To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jul 9 7:36:53 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail-out.visi.com (tele.visi.com [209.98.98.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0D53414C4C for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 07:36:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from pkeusem@visi.com) Received: from isis.visi.com (isis.visi.com [209.98.98.8]) by mail-out.visi.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id A36141F808 for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 09:36:49 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from pkeusem@localhost) by isis.visi.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA16986 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 09:36:49 -0500 (CDT) Date: Fri, 9 Jul 1999 09:36:49 -0500 From: Paul Keusemann To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: boot/loader problem -- currdev is not boot disk Message-ID: <19990709093649.A15301@isis.visi.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there any way to specify the current drive when starting /boot/loader? I've got a system with one IDE drive and two SCSI controllers, one Adaptec 1542 and one Adaptec 2940. I'm trying to boot off of the first disk on the ISA controller which the bios sees first but the boot loader and kernel see second, i.e. when the boot loader starts, it thinks currdev is the first disk on the 2940 which does not have a FreeBSD partition on it. I can boot manually by setting the current drive after the boot loader is running. What I'm looking for is a way to tell the boot loader that the current drive is disk1s1a. Adding a line to /boot/loader.rc won't work because the loader can't even find /boot/loader.rc, I need to set currdev in order to read /boot/loader.rc. This is what I've got so far: Booteasy on the ide drive (wd0) Booteasy on the first drive on the 1542 (sd1) 1:sd(0,a)/boot/loader in /boot.config on sd1 I can autoboot as far as the disk1s1a prompt from the boot loader. -- Paul Keusemann pkeusem@visi.com 4266 Joppa Court (612) 894-7805 Savage, MN 55378 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jul 9 7:51:49 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sol (cs1-gw.cs.binghamton.edu [128.226.171.72]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id E4A0B14C4C for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 07:51:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from zzhang@cs.binghamton.edu) Received: from localhost (zzhang@localhost) by sol (SMI-8.6/8.6.9) with SMTP id KAA20760; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 10:39:14 -0400 Date: Fri, 9 Jul 1999 10:39:14 -0400 (EDT) From: Zhihui Zhang To: Vivek Sahasranaman Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: autosense failed: cable problem?

In FreeBSD you never reinstall anything, you fix it :) Check /tmp and /var/tmp for files that look like X locks or struff like that. If you want to be shure boot single user (not really necessary) and do: $ cd /tmp $ rm -rf * $ rm -rf .[A-Za-z]* DO NOT rm -rf .* as this includes . and .. and will certainly thrash your filesytem. regards, -Oscar -- For PGP Public Key: finger obonilla@fisicc-ufm.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jul 9 8:54:14 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cbrune.cpsgroup.com (unknown [216.207.61.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7910714EA4 for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 08:54:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from corey@cpsgroup.com) Received: from cbrune.cpsgroup.com (cbrune.cpsgroup.com [144.210.12.19]) by cbrune.cpsgroup.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA02240 for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 15:53:46 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from corey@cpsgroup.com) Date: Fri, 9 Jul 1999 15:53:46 -0500 (CDT) From: Corey Brune Reply-To: cbrune@cpsgroup.com To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Video Card 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 have a e-machine 300k with an onboard video card, ATI Rage IIc, which shows to be supported.

I'm a UCD alum. Now I'm a law student in Sacramento. Cool. I'll be going to the Linux Users Group of Davis next Tuesday. See http://www.lugod.org for time and place. First off, if you are really interested in this project, you should take a look at the mailing list archives at www.debian.org. There was a pretty long thread a few months ago, where debian linux developers discussed incorporating the the FreeBSD kernel into the debian software distribution. There is already Debian/GNU Linux, and Debian/GNU HURD. I believe there may be people working on this now. I for one, would welcome a debian distribution based on the freebsd kernel. I've used both freebsd and debian linux and I see the following problems with each. 1. FreeBSD's kernel kicks ass, but the ports system is not nearly as sophisticated as the debian .deb package format. 2. Debian Linux's package format kicks ass, but the linux kernel is not nearly as stable as the freebsd kernel (IMHO). If we could combine the .deb package format with the freebsd kernel, I do believe one would have absolutely the most stable, most versatile, most sophisticated operating system on the whole damn planet. If you are a developer (I'm not so I've settled on debian, but I monitor freebsd's progress), I do not believe it would be too monumental of a task to port debian packages over to freebsd's kernel. I would probably be a simple matter of recompiling the packages and altering a few debian .diff files. I would help if I had some guidance, (cause I have 5 computers so I have machines to compile on). If you are interested, lets get something going. I live only 20 miles away from you and we could meet at lugod meetings. I'm going to forward this message over to the debian lists... Hope to hear from you soon. nate On Fri, Jul 09, 1999 at 07:29:31AM -0700, Greg Shenaut wrote: > I've not used Linux, but I've been told that there is considerable > difference among the several principal variants.

I alrdy send a mail about that to you. Anyway, i have to reinstall my system again cause i want to burn cd's with bsd. No i need to know what the best way is to configure your slice for bsd? I myself had this idea, plz tell me what you think, plz send me suggestions, my idea was to do it like this: I will make 5 Gig free for freebsd 3.2 and laebl the slice like this: / 150M /tmp 100M /usr 1500 Gig /usr/src 600M /usr/obj 600M /var 60M /home 1790M 200M for my swap left.

They use the PNIC, which is a follow-on to (or clone of) the 21140 series, and Bill Paul's driver seems to perform quite well. The EtherExpress Pro is probably the most respected card around these days. Perhaps working with DG to identify and solve your problems might be the best tack? -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Call me nosy if you like, but I'm very curious about where our favourite system is heading in the mid to long term. = I have read the mission statement in the handbook, and a browse through the FreeBSD projects page on the home page is very exiting. Still, I don't think that these sources say anything about what the core team and other developers is aiming for when it comes to functionality, enhancemenst and so on. So, would anyone involved care to share some thoughts and ideas? What can we expect in FreeBSD 4.x, 5.x and outwards? What new exiting things would you see in the future FreeBSD system? Any comments would be greatly appreciated! -- = Cheers!

If you are serious about this, sign up as a debian developer (i.e., debian-devel-request@lists.debian.org, debian-mentors-request@lists.debian.org, and debian-user-request@lists.debian.org). The freebsd list maintainers are going to ban me if this debate continues on the questions@freebsd.org list.

Source file- name suffixes identify the source language, but which name you use for the compiler governs default assumptions: gcc assumes preprocessed (.i) files are C and assumes C style linking. g++ assumes preprocessed (.i) files are C++ and assumes C++ style linking. > 2.8.1 works with templates much closer to C++ standard v.3.0, but > still doesn't have namespaces, correct exceptions and something else. And egcs works even better with templates. However, as the original poster is at the "Hello, World" stage I don't think that they would gain any benefit from using 2.8.1 over the default. > According to docs, gcc 2.8.1 does a little better job in terms of > optimizations. > It can affect you if you use -O3 parameter. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Mark Ovens > To: Rezamys > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Date: Thursday, July 08, 1999 3:09 PM > Subject: Re: newbie: how to compile & run C program in 3.2Release? > > > >On Thu, Jul 08, 1999 at 11:33:07AM +0800, Rezamys wrote: > >> Hi Mark, > >> Okay, tried it last nite.

In general, if you do X and it doesn't work, and you do Y and it works, you "should" do Y. :) The thing about unix is that there is more than one way to do things in almost every situation, so "should" is a relative term. In this particular case if you were building the tripwire port you could do, 'make TRIPWIRE_FLOPPY=YES install clean' and it would perform all the steps for you in one go. Some non-port installations allow you to do this, most (especially those based on GNU autoconf) don't, so you'd have to add your flag to both commands.

We also weren't sure what kind of response we would receive from the BSD community, and whether we would be seen as an abomination. ;-) The short-term plan was to create a BSD kernel module that could be used on a regular Debian system, perhaps using the BSD Linux-compatibility code. Our distribution already spans two binary CD's for each ARCHITECTURE. So, we would have a tremendous amount of additional space needed to host a completely-native BSD distribution as well. We did feel that FreeBSD would probably be the best distribution to base such a beast on. We would probably be distributing it as Debian GNU/BSD, or perhaps Debian GNU/FreeBSD... -Brent To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jul 9 10:45:46 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gwis.com (darcy.gwis.com [209.57.72.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4423A14C3F for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 10:45:43 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ddr@gwis.com) Received: from localhost (ddr@localhost) by gwis.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id NAA04063 for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 13:45:41 -0400 (EDT) Date: Fri, 9 Jul 1999 13:45:41 -0400 (EDT) From: GWIS - Dan Roberts To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: ssh pam support?

If this works, then your lpr filter setup is likely at fault. If the raw printer port job fails, then your ghostscript setup is suspect. I've no experience with magicfilter, I use apsfilter, which I recommend.

I have written a 'web-application' (in PHP3) and I am trying to optimize my code. I have embedded several calls to get microseconds at the start and end of my algorithms, but I am concerned that this won't accurately give me any idea of performance under fire. (Besides, so far this method seems to suggest that my code has no real processing-time overhead--Wow, I must be really good at this ;) Can anyone suggest tools or methods that I might do this with?

Davis" Subject: Boot Problems Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I am running FreeBSD 3.2 stable. Before booting, I get "Invalid Partition" and a prompt for the disk and kernel [ie, 0:da(0,a)] which requires a manual entry. I would like to have this boot up automatically, but, unfortunately I have inherited a disk with no "a" partition. The root filesystem is labelled as /dev/da0s1e (which I enter at the prompt to boot correctly). What I have tried 1. I created a /boot.config file with the entry: 0:da(0,e)kernel Result: This was summarily ignored. 2. I tried to run disklabel -e da0 and *edit* the "e" partition to "a". (BTW, the cylinders are sequential where "e" partition is 0-8, swap 8-24, and /usr 24-xx, so I don't think I'll be over-writing data to edit the partition label) Result: Disklabel complains that the partition is moving and will not let me save the edit. Any suggestions on how to get this to boot automatically either by letting the kernel know it should boot from the "e" partition, or renaming the "e" partition to "a"?

That's a good Idea. Right now I'm talking with Intel. Apparantly this is a problem that is occurring on other OS's, and probably has little to do with the freebsd driver. They have asked me to loan them some machines that are having this problem so that they can investigate it. I will probably do so in the next few days. Perhaps they can either find out what is wrong with the cards and fix it for future revisions, or tell us what we need to do to get around the problem in software. *crossing fingers* Jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jul 9 11:54:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sbcsmtp2.ptss.com (sbcsmtp2.ptss.com [204.107.19.24]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E25031567C for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 11:54:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from DLHODGE@msg.pacbell.com) Received: from mail2.pacbell.com (mail2.PacBell.COM [129.245.2.18]) by sbcsmtp2.ptss.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA19355; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 11:51:30 -0700 (PDT) Received: from msgnorth98.ffcrc.pacbell.com .(msgnorth98.ffcrc.PacBell.COM [150.234.34.70]) by mail2.PacBell.COM (8.8.5/8.8.5-pb990306) with ESMTP id LAA10210; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 11:54:41 -0700 (PDT) Received: by msgnorth98.ffcrc.PacBell.COM with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) id ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 11:54:30 -0700 Message-ID: From: "HODGE, DAVE (PB)" To: "'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG'" Cc: "'dlhodge@pacbell.net'" Subject: System crash when loading FreeBSD Vers. 3.2 Date: Fri, 9 Jul 1999 11:54:28 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have been trying unsuccessfully to load FREEBSD 3.2 to the server system described below.

You do need to be sure to use the right number of fields; it helps to bear in mind that with vipw, you're modifying master.passwd (and passwd is being generated from the result). Since I have trouble counting the fileds, I tend to do the following (using "vi" as the editor): Gyyp:s/[^:]*//g (which replicates whatever line is at the bottom of the file, then strips out everything but the ':' characters), then 0i+[ESC]:wq (which ensures that I'm starting at the leftmost position of the line, inserts a '+', terminates insert mode, writes the file & quits). >Also, when I do a `ypwhich -x` not all the maps held by the NIS master are >shown. Does somebody know why? Because -x only shows the nicknames; thus, it only shows the maps that have nicknames. Not all maps do; they won't be shown via -x. Try -m. >By the way the NIS master running FreeBSD 2.11 and the client is running >v.3.2. The master is correctly configured and integrated with an IRIX >network. You've set "UNSECURE" in the /var/yp/Makefile, then, I gather.

It is hardcoded into the ypwhich binary and may or may not match the tables stored in the server. As far as I know, there is no way to query an NIS server for a list of maps it is willing to serve. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jul 9 15:59: 5 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from aha.ru (h250.zenon.net [195.2.83.119]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CF1C9150DD for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 15:58:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mikhram@dataforce.net) Received: from [212.34.32.121] (HELO ramendik) by aha.ru (CommuniGate Pro SMTP 3.1b4) with SMTP id 4497050 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sat, 10 Jul 1999 02:58:37 +0400 Message-ID: <002501beca67$5dbe7e00$792022d4@ramendik> From: "Mikhail Ramendik" To: Subject: FFS under NT?

However, FreeBSD partitions can live inside of a "slice" (a slice is an MSDOS style partition). Linux uses the same partiton table as MSDOS (as far as I know), and therefore is limited to 4 "real" partitions or you can do those kludged extended partitions. FreeBSD has partitions that live inside of the MSDOS slices (or you can use the 'dangerously dedicated mode' and lose the MSDOS disklabel all together). That all said, if you have both a Linux and FreeBSD on this system, they can use the same swap partition. Linux would not be able to use a FreeBSD partition within a slice, but FreeBSD will be perfectly happy to use the full slice that Linux uses for swap. > How do you increase swap in BSD? I'll read the handbook > as well as listen to your answer! :-) You'll need to find someplace you can spare the room and resize partitions. But as we said, resizing is destructive so what you should do is backup a partition, rezise it, and then restore the partition. How you go about this depends on what type of devices you have for storage and backup, and many other things. I've resized partitions myself on a number of FreeBSD systems. I've never done a whole new reinstall to get it done. -- Crist J.

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

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the second edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the second edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii.

Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three Page 9 Install ports when installing the system files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. By default it isn't started at boot time. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 17 Install ports when installing the system Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the Page 21 Install ports when installing the system directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

First of all carefully check hardware configuration of your card, this may be done by pressing Ctrl+A during system boot at the moment of SCSI devices testing. Be sure that 11-th IRQ isn't in use by any other hardware device, i.e. network card. > Anyone has any more/better ideas on how to proceed?

Latex is "merely" a set of macros to make writing papers and stuff a heck of lot easier than doing so in plain TeX. So Latex itself will be of no use, you'll need way more than just the macro's. For starters you will be needing TeX itself . Since TeX only produces DVI files a program to turn that into printer commands like PostScript might come in handy as well. Then there are previewers that render DVI to screen or an X window and stuff like AucTeX to help writing TeX in Emacs. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.

There is also apt-find which is an ncurses package navigator but not quite as handy as dselect (does not show package description on the same screen, you must go to information screen separately. I liked that feature because I could navigate and watch package descriptions rather than names) and there is gnome-apt which is a navigator for X. The latest apt-find appears to work well enough as of last night. I have not used gnome-apt yet.

The scd0 device is not for Sony IDE CDROMs. It is for the old Sony CDU31/33 CDROMs that used a propretary interface (an ISA card). Your CDROM should be discovered during the probe of the second IDE controller, wdc1. My guess is that your CDROM should work fine. The only problem I can see off-hand is that people have reported problems if a single device is jumpered to be the slave on the secondary controller and there is no master. -- Crist J.

No, a properly installed IDE CDROM should be found by either kernel. What are the answers to these questions: 1) Are you booting from floppy? From the CDROM? 2) Are you disabling the second IDE controller in the kernel config? 3) Is the CDROM detected during the kernel's hardware probes? 4) Is the FreeBSD CD in the drive when you go to the media selection? Was the CD in the drive during the boot? 5) Is the CDROM offered as a choice at the media selection? -- Crist J.

If it were simply linking two lans via the internet then it would be a lot easier. A product VPN could be dropped in place at each site. If all the applications can be accessed via a terminal session or via x-windows then you can use SSH and one of the windows X clients (hummingbird?) But if you need true VPN services then you will almost be forced to use Microsoft's solution for the WinTel clients. You may need to run a RAS server inside the FreeBSD gateway.

Currently the system settings are still set to default. Any ideas on what the system could be doing at 9pm to cause this? This system has been running for a few months now, this problem has only started this weekend. Thanks, Jason McKay.

I'm on it. Me too; I've got 3.2-RELEASE installed. I think it would be more *useful* to get dpkg running on FreeBSD such that Debian GNU/Linux packages can be installed (using the linux .debs) and run using FreeBSD's extensive linux compatibility features. This would require a lot less effort obviously. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB (ex-VK3TYD). CCs of replies from mailing lists are welcome.

XWin32 is a X-Windows display for WinDoZe - all he needs to do is read the XWin32 docs.

I have a Compaq Armada 1535. It's a bit dated, but not a bad machine. I checked the home page in Japan on laptops and saw no mention of Compaq's at all. So... does anyone have experience with Compaq laptops and FreeBSD in general? Or with that model? One big concern for me is the "mouse". It's a touchpad. Does FreeBSD support touch pads?

Used it for two months or so successfully, then dropped because my home computer went down to hell. Well, now I have new toy to play on, but it seems that I can't get sendmail to work without DNS lookups. I have tried service switch, now deprecated 'nodns' and compiling with -DNAMED_BIND=0 with no avail. The only modification which works is removing 'bind' line from /etc/host.conf, but this isn't acceptable. I know this isn't exactly FreeBSD question, but I don't know what is the cause, OS or sendmail, so I'm asking here. The old sendmai version was something from 8.8.x track, current is 8.9.3. Can somebody help me out, I've spent the whole day yet again reading sendmail docs, but without any success. -- Vallo Kallaste vallo@matti.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jul 10 10:32:23 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.rdc1.il.home.com (ha1.rdc1.il.home.com [24.2.1.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6573514D0A for ; Sat, 10 Jul 1999 10:32:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cpeters2@home.com) Received: from charles ([24.4.115.200]) by mail.rdc1.il.home.com (InterMail v4.01.01.00 201-229-111) with SMTP id <19990710173215.WQGD8809.mail.rdc1.il.home.com@charles> for ; Sat, 10 Jul 1999 10:32:15 -0700 Reply-To: From: "Charles A.

No. It's better to remobe linux_lib before installing linux-base. The patch I gave on -ports is one way of solving this.

If you can find an old release like 2.1.0 or possibly 2.1.5 it will install and work on that box. If you can bring the system up to 8M RAM the current stuff will work fine too.

Drives don't like to be moved... and any time you buy a used drive, you're buying a pig in a poke. How was the drive used? If it was my dad's drive, it was hardly used and you can buy it in good faith. If it was bought from an ISP.... well... there's a real chance it was used in a news server or other high demand situation and the bits have been scraped off the platters (just a figure of speech, unless the heads crashed, but the servos that move the heads, and the bearings can wear out). All in all... wait for a sale at a "super store". Best Buy just sold 8.4 gig Maxtor drives for $84.00. That was almost 17 times the capacity at just over 4 times the price compared to what you bought. And the drive has a new drive warranty. Probably 3 or 5 years. (I've always had good luck with Maxtor.... and haven't heard ugly stores about them.) I'd rather wait and get a drive I can rely on... especially if money is tight and replacement is not an option.

I got some weird Motherboard-PCI-BIOS problems here that maybe you can help figure out. Okay, so I got two motherboards that are doing similar wierd stuff. One machine (the Win98 mamchine) has an Asus P5A mainboard and the other machine (the FreeBSD machine) has a FIC 2013+ mainboard. Both of them are using Award BIOS. Okay, it started when I put a quirky network card into the FreeBSD machine (I didn't know it was quirky then, but I had my suspicsions). Keep in mind that the FreeBSD machine is on the FIC motherboard. I booted it up and FreeBSD found the card just fine. It's a SimpleNet RealTek 8029 chipset based adapter. According to FreeBSD 3.2 it was detected and should be working just fine. Now, I've setup network cards many times in the past with FreeBSD and I've really never had a problem. This time, I tried to ping out to another machine and I got nothing. It pretty much hung there. Trying to do a 'nestat -r' did the same thing. I looked at the lights on my handy-dandy cable modem and there seemed to have been no outgoing traffic from the FreeBSD box. So I moved it to another PCI slot, and I got the same problem. Weird. I thought. I know this machine worked fine because I had another one of those cards previously installed. I had taken it out because it was a loaner from the Win98 machine. (Now now, I don't think that Win98 broke the FIC -- and I'll tell ya why). I even tried that original card (the one from the Win98 machine) and it still didn't work. But when I put that card back into the Asus machine (Win98 machine), the Asus aquired the same problem on the PCI bus. Although, the ISA bus seemed to work okay. After many hours of frustration, I had a friend look at it. He was stumped too. After screwing around with different setting on the BIOS, he was able to get the card communicating with the PCI bus it seems. Although, he's not quite sure what actually got it working. Another thing is that if I try to add another PCI card, it dies again. Both Win98 and FreeBSD are able to detect the card and install drivers for them, but the card just doesn't work. I tried re-adding (because it was removed in order to try to fix the problem) a bt848 video capture card back into the Asus machine, but it also did not work and neither did the PCI RealTek network card. Once I took out the video grabber, the PCI network card started to work again. Weird! It was all working just fine the day before. Now I'm kicking myself in the ass for trying to install that cheap network card. I should have bought an Intel. :( *sigh* My questions are: Why would this happen to two different motherbaords? What kind of problem would cause this to happen, and what in the BIOS actually fixed it. I figured that maybe someone may have had this happen to them and know how exactly to fix it, and I give thanks for any help you might have. Joey "Dazed and Confused" Garcia PS My friend that had gotten the two machines to start working again made the assumption that it had to do with ESCD, although I have no clue to what that is and how to set it in the BIOS. I sometimes see it at bootup though.

First of all, if you are only trying to setup Samba on a mixed Window NT/95/98 network, then it's cake...

To tell the truth this is a relatively new install (< 1 week), so I don't have a lot of data. Booting with media ejected gives just a 'no media present' message. This machine has been running W95/W98 for about a year in this configuration with no problems, so I'm not suspecting cable problems. The only other oddity I see with this machine is: Jul 7 18:04:05 thomas /kernel: Bad BIOS32 Services Directory! During boot up. I guess I'll accumulate some more data and see how it goes.

I had the exact same problem on a machine at work. What I eventually did was go to the -CURRENT boot blocks (just the boot blocks, the rest of the system is 3.2-STABLE). They give many more options, some really |<00l options too, and solved my 'Disk 0' problem.

However, the connection only allows data to transfer for a very short amount of time, before it stops completely. The connection isn't lost, but no data is transferred.

Do the log files tell you anything? Seriously, though, you'd have a better chance getting help if you asked in an Apache-specific mailing list.

My personal experience is that Win95 (no experience with Win98 yet) PnP is itself quirky, and is quite capable of screwing up a previously working config at the drop of a hat. Setting the BIOS for "non-PnP OS" means that all PnP settings are established by the BIOS, and those that can logically controlled (ie ISA IRQs etc) can be hardwired in the BIOS. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

And, BTW three other questions: 1. I see two "profile", one in "/" as dot file, and one in "/etc" (???). Is this the rule or I did something wrong? So: where should command aliases (not mail aliases) go? In /etc/profile or other file like /etc/bashrc? 2. I have man pages, info, FAQ and handbook as "online" or "on-CD" documentation. Is there any other info source in my CD's (trying to save $$$ by online www browsing) and something like HOWTO's? 3. Are CD's #3 & #4 just source files? I'm using Walnut Creek FreeBSD 3.0 .

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 I have used xwin32, and this is what you do: Run xwin32 Connect to remote system via telnet/ssh/etc and "export DISPLAY="111.111.111.111:0.0" where 111.111.111.111 is your IP. On remote system run x applications (for example "$ /usr/X11R6/bin/blackbox" Note that you can only run window managers in single window mode -- if you're running in multiple, just run the apps directly (like "$ xterm &"). Use xutil32 to set your window mode. Hope that helps. - Jeff Poole On Sat, 10 Jul 1999, Rick Hamell wrote: > > > > What is the proper command for starting xwindows from a remote site > > > using a program such as xwin32? > > > > I don't know what xwin32 is.
