I've seen the same thing. I have a 7 disk RAID5 vinum setup. I started a network copy onto the volume. The copy hung during the transfer. The machine was fine, but the vinum volume was unresponsive. I rebooted, and fscked the vinum volume. All was well. But a find on the vinum volume panicked the machine. I rebuilt the vinum volume as a stripe set and it hasn't panicked yet. I haven't investigated this any further. -- Alan Edmonds, KB5ZUY Sterling Software M/S 132 Phone: +1-972-801-6485 5800 Tennyson Pkwy.

I'm running a vinum stripe across two 30GB IDE drives. I've been letting the machine reboot on this, as I'm usually not up. After my MB change the panic still happened, so I wouldn't rule out vinum, but have always found it to be damned stable and really well documented.

Current: BH6, Celery @ 450 (stable for over a year in another config) 1x128MB CAS 2 DIMM (running CAS 3) Side note: I posted a question about seemingly slow performance on the UDMA66/Promise config on the Super7 setup, turns out I was right that something was weird. When I chaned to the BH6 Bonnie -s 256 went from 23MB/sec Block write to 38MB/sec on the stripe with only 50% CPU vs. 9x% on Super7. (Single drive was 22MB/sec on same test on Super7) Promise reported busmastering in both configs and drives were seen as UDMA66 in both configs. -Rob "Lowkrantz, Goran" said: > > Just a quick thought, these are the times of the periodic daily and weekly > jobs, resp. > > One of my 4-S test systems did exactly the same thing and I think it has to > do with a deep ls or find on a Vinum RAID-5 volume.

Eventually, I noticed that while booting, my modem card wasn't reporting its resources during the PnP probe. There were a couple of things to do to fix it: 1) boot -c 2) pnp 2 0 os enable port0 0x3e8 irq0 7 (This is for COM3/sio3.) 3) enable sio3 (either in visual mode from boot -c or by building a new kernel) 4) in ppp.conf, add "accept dns" and "enable dns" to the default setup, and change the device to /dev/cuaa2. 5) Enter ppp, terminal mode, and dial--it worked! (I don't have my login chat script ironed out yet, but that will come.) The key to the puzzle was telling the kernel the PnP resource information by hand, so that sio3 could be used for the modem. If you're having similar problems, do "dmesg > /tmp/dmesg.out". Edit the file, and look for the string "CSN". It should be near the top, as the PnP probe is one of the first things that the boot procedure does when configuring devices. Now, if I can just get that pnp setting permanent, rather than having to type it every time I boot, I'll be in business. I hope someone finds this helpful. -- *********************************************************************** Chris BeHanna "The fact that an opinion has been widely Software Consultant held is no evidence whatever that it is behanna@nospam.fast.net not utterly absurd." -- Bertrand Russell P.S.

It has it's good and bad points. On the plus side, the word processor, spreadsheet and database seem to work well and interface nicely with the M$ world. The built-in browser is much more stable on my system than the later Netscapes. On the other hand, it tries to replace your GUI desktop with its own desktop, which I don't like. It is also a huge binary (soffice.bin) that loads a separate instance for every function (mail, spreadsheet, etc) and takes up a huge amount of memory, violating the unix tradition of small programs that do one job, this is a big, huge program that does many jobs. Also, StarMail works well, but it saves mail in some proprietary format, which makes it hard to deal with things like telnetting in to your system from the 'net and runing a text-based mailer on your mail folders. All that said, it's far more functional for real work than anything else I've tried, at least where you have to deal with M$ files at work on a regular basis or as attachments in e-mail. As to configuration, you answer a bunch of questions when you complete the initial installation and then it installs itself in /usr/local/Office51. Then, each user must run the setup stuff, which creates an Office51 directory in his/her home directory where are placed the desktop and folders and all that jazz. I would much rather that it used the home directory itself as its "desktop" folder, so that you didn't have to continually paw your way up a couple layers of directory tree to get to the stuff in your home directory. One of the nice things about unix for day to day work is that the environment moves with you as far as knowing where you are on the system. Staroffice has its own ideas in this regard. -- Jim Durham To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Mar 26 5: 5:44 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp1.cybersurf.net (smtp1.cybersurf.net [209.197.145.111]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4F6E137B7E7 for ; Sun, 26 Mar 2000 05:05:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from 01031149@3web.net) Received: from webserver ([209.197.157.92]) by smtp1.cybersurf.net (Netscape Messaging Server 4.15) with SMTP id FS15PC00.VK3; Sun, 26 Mar 2000 06:05:36 -0700 Message-ID: <000201bf9724$3f34b960$5c9dc5d1@webserver> From: "Duke Normandin" <01031149@3web.net> To: "Jeremy Falcon" Cc: Subject: Re: OSes Date: Sat, 25 Mar 2000 22:16:36 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3612.1700 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3612.1700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Saturday, March 25, 2000 2:56 PM Jeremy Falcon wrote: >Well, I can't speak for everyone here, but I feel like it's better for >problems and answers to remain public, that way it could possibly help more >than one person.

I see alot of documents mention wormcontrol which no longer exists in the normal install, but is in the source tree. I assume that it shouldn't be used anymore. Is this correct? Can I use cdrecord with my ATAPI cdrw on FBSD? Is there a URL that can explain this setup? I've checked the /usr/share/examples/worm and /usr/share/examples/atapi (which is empty now) but to no avail... Ideas? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I've got bind8 installed, and reverse pointers all set. I'm using DSL and got a block of 8IP's from US West. The mail failed, saying it couldn't get the hostname from my ip address. (Though I thought it was working locally, other hosts in fact cannot get my hostname from my ip address.) Two parts to this question... is there a way to send mail to the list without worrying about a reverse lookup? And two, I registered my block of 8 (subnet mask 255.255.255.248)with Arin, yet it still forwards the request to the US-West server. How do I get my block of IP's registered so it goes to my nameserver tables instead of using us wests? (I can't as them for help... their tech support hear's UNIX and say forget it. They also won't support using a hub with their block of 8 ip addresses! They assume/desire that you run windoze or MacOS directly connected to the DSL router, rather than use the block of 8 IPs.

This time around Kerberos has stopped working after the upgrade. Now I did select ALL distributions when I installed from the Walnut Creek CD-ROM and there do seem to be lots of new Kerberos-related ELF libraries and other files intalled on my hard-disk atfer the upgrade. I tracked down some undocumented changes which seemed to suggest that fiddling with /etc/pam.conf might re-enable my Kerberos service. After uncommenting the line to enable Kerberos it still did not work. However, there is now an error message in the system log file saying that file /usr/lib/pam_kerberosIV.so is missing. There are other pam_*.so files but no pam_kerberosIV.so. Do I need /usr/lib/pam_kerberoIV.so to make Kerboros work again? Where can I get it?

I was originally calling it with the -y option to tar. When that started causing me trouble I just ran bzip2 by itself. Both ways it's trying to compress itself before it compresses the actual file on the command line. For example, the following command: /usr/local/bin/bzip2 -9 /var/backup/backup.tar ...will work fine from a prompt, but if called from a shell script, resulted in the following: bzip2: I/O or other error, bailing out. Possible reason follows. bzip2: Operation not permitted Input file = /usr/local/bin/bzip2, output file = /usr/local/bin/bzip2.bz2 bzip2: Deleting output file /usr/local/bin/bzip2.bz2, if it exists. bzip2: WARNING: some files have not been processed: 2 specified on command line, 1 not processed yet. The failure is due to me setting "schg" on bzip2, since every time it got called it was being deleted and replaced by bzip2.bz2. Has anyone else run into the problem, or have any insights.

There was a big enough hiccup that I thought I would document it for the archives. The "technical" folks at Pac$Bell said that they use DHCP, but in fact they don't. They supply windows and Mac software (and aparently Linux as well) that you are supposed to use to hook up. In actual fact, this software does nothing more than PPPoE. DHCP doesn't enter in to it. Anyway, the procedure in section 15.4 of the handbook mostly works just fine (I did not have to include the NETGRAPH_PPPOE option, as netgraph is now smart enough to load its own modules). One thing I found necessary was an ifconfig_xl1="up" line in /etc/rc.conf to "up" the interface before ppp would work. There is a chicken-and-egg problem that I could not surmount, however. In order to activate service, you have to hook up in order to visit their website and get the username and password you will use later as your authname and authkey (you cannot do this from any other ISP). It is unknown how to do this first-time hookup. We worked around it by having the Pac$Bell guy use his machine to visit the website and get the username and password. You could also, I suppose, use the supplied windows software once to establish an account and then use FreeBSD from then on. Of course, IMHO the next thing that needs to happen is that PPPoE support needs to get into the mpd-netgraph port, so that the whole gizmo can live in the kernel and cut out all that context switching.

BSD is based on very old code, so let's say it's had quite a bit of testing. BSD is open source, so you don't have to wait for a single company to fix bugs. That's not to say you fix your own bugs; expecting every BSD user to know about kernel internals is silly (but if you do, you can fix them). Just a few days ago I reported a bug, and it was fixed and I was able to use the fixed version within 12 hours. How often do you expect to get that sort of response time from Microsoft for an NT bug?

Yes, BSD comes from the original UNIX code, but various legal have proven that it has adapted and changes so much that it is no longer the same code. An interesting thing is to note how many kernel functions in BSD have the same names as the version6/7 unix sources. Yes the system is fully multitasking. To enable Multiple processor support generally all you need to do is recompile your kernel and add uncomment a few lines. > The documentation stated that the FreeBSD OS is based with the X-Windows > system.

I have Greg's book and have read the little bit he wrote about accessing pop mail, but I am still at a loss as what to do. He says to get popper from ports. I can't find it in ports. What cd is it on. He also says get popclient. I can't find this one either. I also checked the ftp.freebsd.org site, and was not able to find them there either. I did find qpopper. Is that popper?

We concluded that it appears to be if the host sending the syslog messages is unresolvable (in our case, the DNS server could not be contacted), it would stop logging for us. I'm not sure about any other situations. This drove me nuts for quite a while, but since we have no home connectivity I forgot about submitting a GNATS report later.

If you're trying to set up a standard serial terminal for freebsd all you need are Tx, Rx (crossed of course) and SG. We have at least a dozen machines set up this way, and it works just fine. In a standard null modem cable you would connect CTS to RTS, and DTR to DSR, not the way you have it here. The fact that you're crossing some wrong pins may account for your prolbems. Aside from the annoying graphics, http://www.geocities.com/TheTropics/Shores/2250/pinout.html is a good guide for all of this.

Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2000 17:02:36 -0500 From: "Josh M. Osborne" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have this ProAudioSpectrum sound card that use to work Ok in FreeBSD, but the driver seems to have suffered bit rot (I think the compony that made them went bankrupt in the mid-90s). It was a great card in '92, and I got a great deal on it. But I think it is time to leave it behind. Besides it is the last ISA device in my machine. Do you have any recomdations on PCI sound cards? The section in the FreeBSD handbook seems way out of date, and the search engine in FreeBSD.org isn't very helpful. Are any of the cheap 3D sound cards supported? Failing that are any of the cheap 2D cards supported better then others? I looked in /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci but it doesn't really say anything about the quality of any of the cards, or indeed if I can beleve random webpages google hands me when I search for "FreeBSD aureal" that any given driver works (lots of places claim the aureal driver sort of kind of works and coding has stalled waiting on docs). Plus they don't exactly say what the consumer name of the cards are (as opposed to the chipset that drives it).

It's much simpler to just use XFMAIL or Netscape and set up the POP stuff to point to their mail server.

If the terminal supports hardware flow control (not all do) you really want to wire up those leads and use them rather than dealing with XON/XOFF or setting the speed so slow that flow control is never required. Also, your three-wire setup leaves various control lines floating at undefined levels, which isn't that great. I know that OpenBSD requires DCD to be active for a terminal, because not all that long ago I connected a VT220 to a OpenBSD box. I'm fairly certain the same holds true for FreeBSD, but I don't really remember for sure. > In a standard null modem cable you would connect CTS to > RTS, and DTR to DSR, not the way you have it here. We're not dealing with a standard null modem cable (a somewhat ill-defined term) here. We're talking about connecting a terminal. A good many terminals support DTR/DSR flow control in a fashion equivalent to the way RTS/CTS is used on PC serial ports for this purpose, in which case wiring up a cable with DTR-CTS and DSR-RTS is just the right thing to do. I have been using this for my VT320-clone. I don't know what types of flow control a Wyse 60 supports. The truth is, serial ports are a mess. The semantics of the various control lines are ill-defined and in practice their actual usage varies with the hardware. Connecting a terminal is fairly easy if you have some experience but can turn very painful if you're trying to work by recipe and don't understand what you are doing. When you deal with an unknown terminal, you don't start by soldering up a cable. You grab your serial kit with break-out boxes for LED displays and arbitrary jumpering of the leads. Starting out from educated guesses or the manual and progressing by trial-and-error you refine the configuration until everything works. *Then* you make an appropriate cable. Well, that's my approach at least, and I don't have anybody to turn to for help. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Mar 26 16:12:55 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from kestrel.prod.itd.earthlink.net (kestrel.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.121.155]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 90CD537B7EE for ; Sun, 26 Mar 2000 16:12:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from eogren@earthlink.net) Received: from red.ogren.house (ip160.cambridge2.ma.pub-ip.psi.net [38.32.112.160]) by kestrel.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id QAA04848; Sun, 26 Mar 2000 16:12:44 -0800 (PST) Received: (from eogren@localhost) by red.ogren.house (8.9.3/8.9.3/Debian/GNU) id TAA04537; Sun, 26 Mar 2000 19:07:11 -0500 Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2000 19:07:07 -0500 From: Eric Ogren To: Jim Durham Cc: Don Read , Jim Freeze , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: How to access POP3 mail?

If, like me, you are a member of an ISP that has its dial-up addresses on the antispam Dialup Listing, and you attempt to run your own [non smarthost configured] sendmail, much of your mail will be blocked. This is because at many places (including FreeBSD.org), the mail server checks the IP against the dialup-network spam list, and rejects the mail if your IP is on it. I must agree with the previous poster; adding "DS" is a much better way to go. Unless your ISP is incompetent, they WILL have your IP number in their relay-domain file, since otherwise nobody who runs Windows could send email (Windows does not ship with an SMTP server).

I have PM 5.0 and a trick that (if I remember correctly) was useful was t= he "unallocated partition" option. Simply use that partition come install. A= dmitidly you still have to make a disklabel, but you don't have to fips or any for= m of destructive partitioning. System Commander will make let you set your partition type to just about = any thing. (The list of partition types it recognizes is rather large, plus y= ou can set your own.) It won't format or put a file system on the resulting part= ition, but it's still quite useful. System Commander 2000 is what I currently us= e as a boot manager and for partitioning. I find it only slightly more useful th= an PM 5.0.

If you're getting the basic plan then it is pretty much cake to get PPPoE up and running using the PacBell client or using Jamaal's client with SuSE Linux. I'm a newbie with FreeBSD but it looks like it shouldn't be too much of a problem. One thing I would like to point out is that there have been 3 times that I haven't been able to login. If you're getting the Enhanced plan then there are no worries whatsoever.

I installed 4.0 last weekend and I just cannot get Boot Easy to recognize my Linux boot partition. I've read the handbook and tutorials and they seem to imply you just install Boot Easy to the MBR and your other OSes will show up when you boot. I've got lilo working no problem but I'd like to use Boot Easy since it shows the other OSes (easier for my wife). I can't figure out if I'm missing something so any help or direction would be appreciated.

So I'm using the laserjet driver, with 300x300 dpi as resolution. Now while I can print real PostScript stuff just fine (e.g. man -t whatever ¦ lpr ) I cannot print ascii stuff (or probably anything else, I haven't tried more exotic formats). I understand that apsfilter defined three printers in printcap, "lp", "ascii" and "raw". "lp" works just fine for PostScript stuff, as told, but "ascii" does not seem to work at all. When I pipe a textfile into it ( lpr -P ascii textfile ), the LED on my printer blinks once, and that's all that happens. I can print textfiles using the raw printer, but then I can't take advantage of a2ps's capabilities to print to pages on one sheet or I cannot print underlined and bold characters. I have tried to convert textfiles by hand (e.g. man whatever > textfile ; a2ps -2 -l textfile > textfile.ps ; lpr -P lp textfile.ps ) and it works just fine, so I assume the problem must be somewhere in apsfilters configuration, and because of that I assume that others must have similar problems, which they may have solved. I hope you can help me, as this is frustrating, as you can imagine. Oh yeah, as for the config files: I have not (yet) changed any of the configuration files that apsfilter creates during its setup, so you can assume that everything's pretty standard, or, if you can't call it standard, the way apsfilter puts it. I'm running FreeBSD 4.0 Release, and I installed apsfilter from scratch via the port and "make install", which should also have installed all files apsfilter is dependant on correctly. Other than that, there's nothing fancy yet, the hardware's the Laserjet 6P, a Pentium-III, normal stuff. I don't think it's important, but should you need my system specs or the content of a file, just ask. Have a lot of fun, Ben.

After it's installed, type man fetchmail It's pretty self explanatory. Also, the file /etc/sendmail.cf is decently documented - set the DS and DM options, minimum, and the Dj$ option as well (I didn't used to have to set Dj$, but suddenly I do). -- Derrick Baumer bduk@earthlink.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 3: 1:32 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from titan.seed.net.tw (titan.seed.net.tw [192.72.81.213]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7E12237BC76 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 03:01:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from leafy@titan.seed.net.tw) Received: from [210.68.57.249] (helo=eurofront4) by titan.seed.net.tw with smtp (SEEDNet Mail Server v2.313f) id 12ZXGy-0007Sp-00 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 19:01:28 +0800 Message-ID: <006901bf97db$3dcd4d00$040a0a0a@eurofront4> From: "Jiawei Ye" To: Subject: Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 18:57:26 +0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I have a FreeBSD 4.0 box with a Dlink DFE500TX nic.

Perhaps a > good thing to check... Yes, this seems to be exactly what is happening, but it does affect machines which only log for and to themselves. The DNS angle explains why at least five machines in the one building are showing the problems all the time when few others have seen this and only temporarily when it occurs to others. The primary name server for the affected machines is frequently rebooted to freshen it up a bit (sic). As I'm leaving tomorrow, I have left instructions that anyone who claims to have a valid reason for rebooting the nameserver is obliged to kill and restart syslogd on up to ten other machines immediately afterwards :-) Still, it would be real nice to have a suitproof syslogd one day. It looks like that won't be so far off, now that we know the cause. Thanks to all who helped and encouraged. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 5: 3:24 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from server.baldwin.cx (jobaldwi.campus.vt.edu [198.82.67.146]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1BBBB37BB5C for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 05:03:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Received: from john.baldwin.cx (john [10.0.0.2]) by server.baldwin.cx (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA85679; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 08:03:04 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Message-Id: <200003271303.IAA85679@server.baldwin.cx> X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <20000326121609.55884.qmail@hotmail.com> Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 08:03:04 -0500 (EST) From: John Baldwin To: David Ellefsen Subject: RE: Old SoundBlaster Cdrom drive Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 26-Mar-00 David Ellefsen wrote: > To whom it may concern. > > I have one question, can FreeBSD 3.3 be installed using an old Sound Blaster CD-ROM Drive (the one > that connects up to the SB16 card).

The problem is related to the crypto support. I know I'm just doing something stupid, but I can't figure out what's wrong. I'm following the procedure in the UPDATING file. It's failing on step 2, "make buildworld". At first, it would stop in tcpdump or ppp because it couldn't find crypto header files (such as des.h or blowfish.h). I copied the latest header files from OpenSSL 0.9.5 and then copied them into the /usr/obj tree after the buildworld started. That got it past the make depend. Now when it tries to link ppp, it stops because it can't link against -lcrypto. I've set USA_RESIDENT to yes in /etc/make.conf. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

I have been trying to find a good replacement for my AST 4-port cards to drive my modems. When I was running 2.2.7-RELEASE, I tried a Cyclades card. It came up and appeared to work, but UUCP would not work. Since most of my modem traffic is UUCP, that was out the window. I have recently upgraded to 3.4-RELEASE and decided to purchase a Comtrol RocketPort PCI/Octa/DB25. I have tried both the kernel driver that comes with FreeBSD and the source from Comtrol's web site, but I get the same results. The kernel find the card without any problem. The issue is that the baud rate will not do anything but 9600. I have tried accessing the port with kermit, tip, etc. and still the same results. kermit gives me the most information saying 'SET SPEED failed'. Has anybody used one of these with success? Failing that, I would love a recommendation for an 8 port PCI card that Taylor UUCP likes.

I tried grepping for my isp in the output of 'who', but grep produces a null output file even if it finds no results. SO when i test for the existence of that file, it will always be there after running grep. Is there a better way of detecting what machine i am telnetting in from and thaen choosing the correct .muttrc? Also, right now the script cats the color settings onto the end of a basic .muttrc. The problem is when i save aliases, they need to be moved into the base file, otherwise changes get lost.

A better way to accomplish this task is grep -q search_string input_file retval=$? if [ $retval -eq 0 ] then ... actions if found else ... actions if not found fi -q makes grep not produce output but exit with an error value based on whether the search string was found (0 if it was, something else if it was not). The assignment of $? (the error value) to 'retval' is not technically required, but since $? changes with every external command that is run, it is a common mistake to insert commands between the grep and the test, thus changing the context of the test. Assiging the error value to retval right after running the command preserves the value for later use. > Is there a better way of detecting what machine i am telnetting in > from and thaen choosing the correct .muttrc? You could also do something fancy like: last -1 `id -un` | grep -q isp1 retval=$? if [ $retval -eq 0 ] then ... action for isp1 else last -1 `id -un` | grep -q isp2 retval=$? if [ $retval -eq 0 ] then ... action for isp2 fi fi > Also, right now the script cats the color settings onto the end of a > basic .muttrc.

In my .muttrc, I use: source ~/.mutt.aliases set alias_file = ~/.mutt.aliases And that allows me to put the aliases wherever I want. -- j. James FitzGibbon james@targetnet.com Targetnet.com Inc.

You will get the message "pcm0 not found" at boot time. Don't worry. pcm0 is reserved for an ISA device. The sound card will be at pcm1. That's why you need to make snd1. 2.

Your best bet is to just cvsup the entire CVS repository. There should be example cvsup files for this in /usr/share/examples/cvsup/. For example, I store my local copy of the repo on /usr/cvs on my machine.

I don't care if you say 4.0a or 4.0.1 or 4.0(1) or 4.0-20000327 or however you want to say it. I just think that if something is important enough to warrant a change then it's important enough to point it out in the release designation. Adding the changelog is a great idea. That makes it possible to find out _what_ changed, which then makes it possible to determine if one actually cares which release they have. And perhaps more importantly, if they encounter a problem they can see that it is/isn't fixed in the next release. Same as the old concept of "release notes". -Mitch >I don't really like the "4.0a" since that's still not truly indicative >of anything besides "change" - what about a changelog to accompany the >image?

What would be possible is store the information on what drivers to attach to what in a kernel loadable module that can be unloaded at any time. However, that approach opens up a whole can of worms: How to decide on which driver to use, how to make sure that the kernel does not fall over while the kernel module is not loaded (in between the 'kldunload' and 'kldload'), etc. Nick -- n_hibma@webweaving.org n_hibma@freebsd.org USB project http://www.etla.net/~n_hibma/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 8:40:36 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gull.prod.itd.earthlink.net (gull.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.121.85]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9563C37B5F6 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 08:40:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from prmoyer@mail.earthlink.net) Received: from mail.earthlink.net (ip88.wilmington3.de.pub-ip.psi.net [38.30.157.88]) by gull.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA03872 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 08:40:22 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <200003271640.IAA03872@gull.prod.itd.earthlink.net> From: "Philip R.

I changed some of the test conditions a little, but i think it will work. I'lll let you know when i telnet in from the other box. Actuially, is there a way to tell whether the computer running telnet or ssh is running windows or BSD? That's really an even better condition.

So, strictly speaking,=20 you should remake only those disks and slices which are necessary for=20 the uprading procedure (e.g. because they will contain the upgraded=20 pieces of your system :-) Personally, I followed Nik's make world tutorial as usual (steps >20):=20 ie I ran mergemaster and then I remade *all* the devices ("/dev/sh=20 MAKEDEV all"). =20 If you do so, you will automatically (re)make a good number of them=20 (ie a "standard set", so to speak.) But you *MUST* make slice entries=20 (e.g. ad0s1a) and all those entries outside the "standard set". You might want to check what is remade (e.g. as indicated in the=20 hanbook), and, mutatis mutandis (ie check the new names for the device=20 nodes), make what is missing. AFAIK, in 4.0-something (current,=20 release, or "stable"), the concept of block devices has disappeared=20 although, in the early stages, "compatibility" devices nodes will=20 still be present (e.g. wd*). Also, you might want to *write down* what you do as well as recording=20 your session (script command): if something goes wrong, somebody will=20 be able to help you. BTW, after upgrading to 4-(then)CURRENT, I remade the world once again=20 to make sure that *all* the components were ok: the logs (and the=20 script command) are your friends :-)=20 Good luck, Salvo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 10: 5:15 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.hiwaay.net (fly.HiWAAY.net [208.147.154.56]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5B0D837B918 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 10:05:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dkelly@mail.hiwaay.net) Received: (from dkelly@localhost) by mail.hiwaay.net (8.10.0/8.10.0) id e2RI4rQ02603; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 12:04:53 -0600 (CST) Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 12:04:53 -0600 (CST) From: David Kelly Message-Id: <200003271804.e2RI4rQ02603@mail.hiwaay.net> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, jesus@innova.rcanaria.es Subject: Re: creating cdrom Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Jesus writes: > > Hello: > > I need generate a cdrom ISO9660 image from a directory.

In addition, I had already received at least two other replies. I look forward to the day when I know enough about freebsd to help others. Until then, I just want to say that I have found the help from the freebsd mailing lists (i.e. the freebsd community) to be outstanding. I am reading Greg Leahy's 'The Complete FreeBSD' and 'Unix for the Impatient' (as recommended by Greg Leahy), and of course the handbook and man pages but help from others is still invaluable, especially to a newbie like myself. I came to FreeBSD after a disappointing experience with RedHat, whose (paid) support desk could not/would not lead me to a successful solution to a hardware problem which I was later able to solve with the support and encouragement of FreeBSD-ers. I worked with VMS and NT for many years and I am only now learning Unix but already I advocate to anyone who will listen that they consider FreeBSD over Linux or NT for personal and professional use.

Bottom line is I can't resolve localhost since I dorked around trying to set up a caching nameserver--since turned off. Setup is 3.4R, standalone, dial-in to ISP. Relevant config files follow. Also at Ben Smithurst's suggestion, I ran 'ktrace ping localhost'. Plus at the bottom of this dump, I've also included the output of 'netstat -r' and 'ifconfig -a' if that helps.

It seems to work quite well and be easy to set up from the ROM at boot time. One of the tests was to remove one of the disks from a RAID-1 configuration while the OS was running. This worked as expected. But putting the disk back in didn't appear to have any effect. (In particular, it didn't turn off the loud on-board alarm. The person running that test didn't let it run long enough to see if it actually rebuilt automatically.) Which leads me to the search for some way to control the board while the OS is running. The DPT web site indicates that the dptutil program isn't yet available for FreeBSD (or BSD/OS), and they only mention FreeBSD 2.2.8. Is there anything in 3.4 or 4.0 that would let me perform the RAID configuration from the command line? Or at least shut off the alarm?

Dear Brad Knowles, just my two cents to the general issue. From 4.0-CURRENT slice (yet to upgrade to 4-STABLE), I can happily=20 access my (IBM) *IDE* "3-STABLE" disks as adNsM (e.g. ad2s2e.); from=20 my 3-STABLE slice, I can access my (IBM) *IDE* "4.0-CURRENT" disks as=20 wdNsM (e.g. wd0s3f.) I do NOT have SCSI disks, so I can't tell anything about your specific=20 problem. However, although I need to access each other's IDE disks read-only=20 from either slice, I seem to understand that, at this stage, it should=20 be HARMLESS to access them read write (at least, from 4.0-CURRENT or=20 -STABLE). If any of such operations is NOT safe, I hope somebody will jump in=20 the discussion and tell us :-) HTH, Salvo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 11:40:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from Wheel.TSR.Ru (wheel.tsr.ru [195.208.67.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2ED6C37B9F4 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 11:40:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from matrix@gerpa.ru) Received: from m1 (956-1785.tsr.ru [195.208.67.133] (may be forged)) by Wheel.TSR.Ru (8.9.3may/TELECORE-1.1) with SMTP id XAA22216 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 23:39:42 +0400 (MSD) Message-ID: <001201bf9824$fd97eca0$0100a8c0@m1> From: "Artem Koutchine" To: Subject: localization of unix apps (russian) Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 23:35:59 +0400 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello! I am really sorry to bug you all about this localization issue, but the fact is that i cannot find any good web site about it where i can discuss the matter with live people. And USNET is not accessible for me. So, if you can help - do so, please. MY CONFIG: FreeBSD 3.4/ X 3. something (the one from 3.4 packages). KDE 1.1.2 (from packages), Russian X-fonts, RUssian locate/language is set up nicely/INternationaly keyboard in KDE works find (switching via CTRL-SHIFT). 1) Xemacs I am using Xemacs MULE 1.1 (patch8) and when i try to input russian all i get is: "cyrillic_## not defined" When i load a file with russian letter i get greek (obviously xemacs uses the font w/o russian letter). When i select "SHOW MANY LANGUAGES" i get tildes instead of russian. and shows "Unable to instanciate font face. font - warning charset cyrillic iso 8859-5" 2) Xemacs (menus) The above mentioned xemacs shows up with menu font too large for some menus to fit on the screen (3-rd level menus fall of the screen on the left or on the right). How do I set a smaller font for menu titles/items? 3) Xemacs (perl editing function menu) Somehow on my prev. machine where xemacs 19.xx (MULE too) was installed i got that very usefull FUNCTIONS menu when editing perl source. And now i do not seem to be able to get it. HOw do i turn it on? 4) All Apps/Games submenus are grayed out. Did i miss something when installing it Xemacs from package? Maybe there is an additional package with app/games for xemacs? 5) Kwrite I just do not see russian letter in Kwrite. This is reallt weird, because i all prev times Kwrite never gave any headache with russian. 6) AbiWord I also installed AbiWord. I just wondering if there is a way to make it type/show russian and especially in win1215 encoding? (for msword files) 7) Netscape Netscape seems to be okay when showing russian on HTML pages, but when it comes to showing tips or address in Messager (email) it always shows greek. Any way to make it use a font with russian letter for menu items/ text windows/tip texts/e.t.c? 8) Office suit I was wondering if there is an office application suit (say, Star Office) which can read MS OFFICE files and also can work with russian (namely win1251 encoding). 9) X fonts As i undertstand even thought i installed package with russian X-fonts, still not all font contain russian and many programs use just them. Is there a full set of X fonts which substitute the standard one, so ALL fonts contain russian. Or is it too bad thing to do? Damn it, how long would it take for X and apps for it to be fully localizable? 10 years?

Dear Jonathan Smith, I am going to make release myself in a while :-) AFAIK, the following hold: 1) you need a CVS repository in order to be able to build a release.=20 Although it should theoretically be possible to build the same=20 release you run, it is preferable and convenient to have a CVS (ie all=20 FreeBSD sources); as an aside, a serious FreeBSDer *must* (morally=20 speaking) have a CVS :-)) 2) you need to tell the system what you want to do, where you want to=20 do it, and where the CVS lives (ie via the variables described in=20 /usr/src/release/Makefile.) If you have a closer look at the Makefile, you will notice that the=20 variables therein allow you to customize your environment to exactly=20 meet your needs.=20 If you lie and specify your /usr/src as CVSROOT, after a few minutes=20 you will get an error. These last specific woes can be retrieved in=20 the mail archives, too. Please note: generally speaking, it is UNwise to try to make a more=20 advanced release than the one you are using for the make release=20 process itself. E.g., you should NOT try to make a 4.0-Release from=20 within, say, a 3-STABLE one. And if I am stating anything incorrect, I will be (more or less)=20 angrily scolded very soon ... :-) HTH, Salvo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 11:55:43 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.targetnet.com (mail.targetnet.com [207.245.246.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 480D837B52B for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 11:55:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from james@targetnet.com) Received: from james by mail.targetnet.com with local (Exim 3.02 #1) id 12ZfZj-00053t-00; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 14:53:23 -0500 Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 14:53:23 -0500 From: James FitzGibbon To: J McKitrick Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: writing scripts Message-ID: <20000327145323.B40393@targetnet.com> References: <20000327160911.C9691@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org> <20000327104539.A40393@targetnet.com> <20000327174023.C10268@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre1i In-Reply-To: <20000327174023.C10268@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org> Organization: Targetnet.com Inc.

Well, for mutt to work, i have to change TERM to xterm-color in my profile. I know that's a kludge, but it works. Unless i can find a way to make the host box display colors on a vt100 terminal.

Any TERM entry that sets the :Co: termcap parameter should work. vt100 terminals were all monochrome, so it doesn't make any sense to set TERM to vt100 and expect colors.

Removing bad144 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 am attempting to upgrade one of my servers to 4.0 from 3.3-STABLE and seem to be mostly there except for one problem: all of the current drives employ bad144 mapping and the new IDE disk devices no longer support bad144. I've looked thru the archives and found only how to ADD bad144, not remove it. How can I remove bad144 bad sector mapping on existing drives without reformatting them? Now before I get flamed for having the 'ancient' bad144 mapping in the first place, let me say that *ALL* of my machines have bad144 maps because of past experience with drives. The common wisdom is that all modern IDE drives to remapping automatically... unfortunately, this is not the case. I've had a couple of Western Digital drives in the past year that had started popping up with bad sectors. WD tech support said that many of their IDE drives do NOT automatically do bad sector remapping. Before returning the drive, I ran the WD DOS utility on it, not hoping for anything. To my surprise it scanned the disk, say "I found errors" and asked if I wanted to fix (remap, I assume) them. The drive then was fine and FBSD was happy with it. So I ran bad144 and have added that to the sysinstall every system I built afterward. -Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 12:37:46 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.cybcon.com (mail.cybcon.com [216.190.188.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DBD8537BA2D; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 12:37:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wwoods@cybcon.com) Received: from laptop.cybcon.com (william@tc1-16.cybcon.com [63.163.56.17]) by mail.cybcon.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA17701; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 12:38:36 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 12:37:27 -0800 (PST) Reply-To: bwoods2@uswest.net From: William Woods To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Subject: Mke World Dies on 4.0-stable...

However, we are considering the costs between in-house development and purchase a configure-and-run package. The available features we'd like to have are: 1. Account Information - Domain Registrant and Administrative Contact Info 2. Security Feature - Set up a user/password authorization list to restrict browser access to specific areas of the web site. (basically a .htaccess control or similar) 3. Password Changer 4. Disk Usage 5. Virtual Mail - manage e-mail accounts, including add/modify/remove mail aliasing, forwaring, and POP accounts. 6. File Upload - web-based FTP-like program 7. Site Traffic Stats - this will be a link to our stats server 8.

This sets things up only for localhost.your.domain. You might need to create a zone file for your named, to help it in resolving your `real' host.your.domain -- not just localhost. Both your problems, with sendmail, and with apache, are caused by your machine not being able to lookup it's own hostname. There are various ways to do this, ranging from simple to more difficult to do. a) If you're talking about your home machine, you can probably get away with an entry in /etc/hosts [the 'difficult' way of doing this, would be to install a local (caching) name server]. b) If you're talking about your workstation at work, your company's DNS admin should be able to help you set your machine up. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr> See the headers of this message for my public key fingeprint.

Start by setting in your .fetchmailrc the protocol to `kpop', instead of `pop3'.

There is *no* 'auto' option, as far as I can tell from fstab(5) manpage. Try creating different mount points. For instance I use: # mkdir -p /floppy/ufs # mkdir -p /floppy/msdos # mkdir -p /floppy/ext2 and have the proper entries in my fstab. Then I choose which type of filesystem the floppy will be mounted with: # mount /floppy/ufs or something similar. > I also tried to add 'user' to the options list and that also appears > not supported. This is considered by a lot of people to be a security violation, and it is disabled by default. There is no fine-grained per-filesystem control (like what you did in linux) but you can enable mounting of devices by setting: # sysctl -w vfs.usermount=1 > Both of these work on my linux boxes, how can I do the same thing on > FreeBSD? I have to su to mount a floppy and access a floppy. Err, well, sorry to say that, but this is not linux. There are a few differences.

The perl application spawns a number of children. My problem is that on the FreeBSD systems some of those children occasionally get killed (signal 9). The application/children run as root, and the systems have plenty of memory (no swapping at all). Syslog does not show anything unusual. No other users are logged in on those systems. The children are killed in various stages (idle, in the middle of I/O etc). Anyone have an idea what could cause those signals?

Has anyone here gotten FreeBSD up with a currently [easily] available, inexpensive video camera for use with FreeBSD 3.4? It seems that the Connectix QuickCam has a lot of support in FreeBSD and in Linux, but this is an extinct product: Logitech has purchased the QuickCam line, and come out with new models that are unsupported. I have been to a half-dozen or more stores trying to find a Web Cam that I could make use of, all to no avail so far. The Video Blaster II is no longer available either, the current models being the Video Blaster 3 and the Web Cam Go. Another dilemma: In real terms, should I be looking for a parallel port version rather than the USB version? Limited USB support is available in FreeBSD, and I have not seen any drivers specifically for a USB video cam. There is a driver in Linux that seems promising, CPiA; will it work in FreBSD? (Although this, too, seems to have a limitation in that the cameras it works with are no longer being manufactured. Can anyone point me to a current solution to this problem? Purchasing an unavailable product is not really quite an answer. Thanks. Chris Booth Christopher J.

It's probably a bit more of an expensive solution than just a cam but you may want to look into getting a Hauppage WinTV card (bt848) for video capture, it's really good, really fast and supported.

Well I'm pretty sure the WinTV cards themselves are less than $100 nowadays, and you can use just any old camcorder with it. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 15:28:42 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from aragorn.neomedia.it (aragorn.neomedia.it [195.103.207.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6504037C0A0 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 15:27:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bartequi@neomedia.it) Received: from bartequi.ottodomain.org (ppp1-pa5.neomedia.it [195.103.207.113]) by aragorn.neomedia.it (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id BAA06798 for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 01:27:37 +0200 (CEST) From: Salvo Bartolotta Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 00:29:27 GMT Message-ID: <20000328.292700@bartequi.ottodomain.org> Subject: OFF TOPIC converting html to pdf quickie To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: SuperCalifragilis X-Priority: 3 (Normal) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear FreeBSDers, I would like to convert html files into pdf files.

Every time it gives me such a message it says it's made an adjustment to the buffer size. The messages are very infrequent now, almost nonexistant, which leads me to believe FreeBSD has adjusted it's behavior/settings to match the type of load on my server (which I think is _very_ cool). However, I'm just wondering if I can set these settings manually in order to test settings. There's one thing I like about Windows which I haven't yet learned how to do with FreeBSD. In Windows, I can customize my box to use certain resources for certain things. For example, if I want to use 32 or 64 megs of memory for a disk cache, I can do that. You think, why the hell would you want to do that ? Well, sometimes I have machines, like file servers, which the most important thing they do is serve files. When I turn the disk caching up this high, the disk rarely gets touched, which saves on the life of my disk. The point is, I know what type of load my machine is going to have, and how much resources it has, and I want to be able to decide how much of X resource is used for Y task. I asked once how I could modify the disk cache/buffering settings for FreeBSD, and was basically told, don't touch, let FreeBSD handle it. I'm glad FreeBSD is intelligent enough to decide how to use my resources, but what if I feel that there's alot of memory free, like 95 megs, and I want to reduce the beating my hard drive is taking. Is there an option to do this ? I know of the MFS/tmp optimization and I've tried this out with mixed results.

From memory StarOffice doesn't even support "tables" so you can't like do proper documentation with it. If you want a good office package for your FreeBSD box get FreeBSD Applixware which is not so limited in features. But you have to pay for it.

Depending on what kind of NIC you are using, and what exact error messages you're referring to, I believe you are correct, that the system has "tuned itself" so to speak to fit your usage patterns. > There's one thing I like about Windows which I haven't yet learned how to do > with FreeBSD.

The reason you want/need to do that is because windows is way too dumb to get the balance right itself.

You need to get out of the windows mindset. :) Before you decide that you know better than the system how to allocate resources, do some serious analysis on what the real usage patterns are (not what you think they are) and how the system is actually allocating resources. For instance, FreeBSD will continue to allocate disk cache as long as there is free memory available, and it starts to swap unused bits of system (and other) code out when it starts to run out of free memory. Effective disk caching is the _last_ thing you need to worry about on a FreeBSD system. "But I want to control it anyway!" Ok, knock yourself out. The knobs are there, tweak to your heart's content. But don't expect people to "help" you do it, since the effort has already gone into the system to make it the best it can be, and the developers have other things to keep them busy. :) Good luck, Doug -- "So, the cows were part of a dream that dreamed itself into existence?

There are some minor things now and then that you need to 'tweak by hand', but then, Webmin also offers a telnet client! So you can telnet in and do the hand mod's. Webmin can also be customised. You can add your own scripts and such so that if there is something missing, you can 'plug it in'. I've not done this, but a friend (who put me onto FreeBSD) does, and he tells me it is "very good". So, as Chip said, check out Webmin. If it doesn't do now what you want, there is a good chance it will do so with a little hacking.

That's certainly a reasonable way to do it. You should be able to save the dumps on a windows partition. You might even get away without doing a reinstall. If you already have a separate root partition then you can run standalone with just root mounted while you repartition and restore the rest. Even if you have to move your root partition, you should be able to drop to standalone, delete all partitions except your current root, create a new root partition and restore to there, reboot using the new root partition and then finish your repartitioning and restoring. You do need to think a few steps ahead if you try this. One thing missing from the root partition is an editor (except for ed). You might want to build a statically linked editor and save it somewhere on root before you start, in case you need one during the process. You should also make sure you have all the entries in /dev that you'll need for your new partitions. Also, before you start, print out any man pages you'll need to refer to. Backup everything somewhere safe. -- Kevin Street street@iname.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 19:44:47 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp.mail.yahoo.com (smtp.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.68.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 8D9FF37B71F for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 19:44:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from hbenedict_fbsd@yahoo.com) Received: from unknown (HELO radiance) (202.155.26.30) by smtp.mail.yahoo.com with SMTP; 27 Mar 2000 19:44:33 -0800 X-Apparently-From: Message-ID: <200003281046070070.001545D6@smtp.mail.yahoo.com> X-Mailer: Calypso Version 3.00.00.14 (3) Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 10:46:07 +0700 From: "Benedict H" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="=====_95421516741=_" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --=====_95421516741=_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" --=====_95421516741=_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" --=====_95421516741=_-- __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I usually find that telnetting to the port is a good test to see what is going on, or to at least see if the port is being listened to. -Chris -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Dennis Jun Sent: Monday, March 27, 2000 12:41 PM To: Sarton O'Brien Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ppp -nat port redirection --- Sarton O'Brien wrote: > Hey all, > > I have been trying to (unsuccessfully) redirect port 700 from my ppp > gateway to my windows desktop. > > I've been using pppctl and manually typing: > > nat port tcp 192.168.0.2:700 700 I believe it's "redirect_port" not "port". > which I'm assuming is wrong.

Hi,
 

I'm trying to get my FreeBSD 3.3 box up and running as a gateway between
2 local subnets. I have already recompile the kernel with the IPFIREWALL,
IPFIREWALL_FORWARD, IPFILTER, DUMMYNET, and BRIDGE options.
Currently the firewall rule is allow all from any to any.
 
            subnet1 -- gw -- subnet2
 

Here's what I've got at the console when I type netstat -r:
 
localhost       localhost           UH    0   1   lo0
192.168.1/26    link#3              UC    0   0   ep0
gw              <gw ep0 ether addr> UHLW  0   2   lo0
192.168.1.5     <host1 ether addr>  UHLW  1  1550 ep0  694
192.168.2/26    link#1              UC    0   0   xl0
gw              <gw xl0 ether addr> UHLW  0   136 lo0
192.168.2.63    ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff   UHLWb 1   1   xl0
 
But I encountered a problem, when I ping from gw box to host1 box,
I always have the responses back to me in about 10 to 40 seconds.
Then in the host1 machine, I type "tcpdump -i ep0" at the console
and I think host1 runs correctly, because it always reply immediately
after it gets the echo request.
 
When I unplugged my xl0 device out of the machine, everything goes well.
 
 
 

Anyone, please help me fix this problem.
 

Thank you
 

Benedict

The NIC has been acting weird with 4.0 where there previously were no problems with 3.x. After I boot up, if I try to connect to or ping the 486 from others on the LAN, there is no response, just, sendto: Host is down Messages. Likewise, if I go to the console of the 486 and try to ping out, nothing. tcpdump(8) on one of the other machines shows silence from the 486. However, this is where it gets strange... The 486 has, ex0: flags=843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:aa:00:a5:af:91 from ifconfig(8) and, ex0: at port 0x300-0x30f irq 10 on isa0 ex0: Ethernet address 00:aa:00:a5:af:91 From dmesg(8), but like I said, networking does not work. I start a ping on one virtual console and get, sendto: Host is down sendto: Host is down sendto: Host is down On and on. Then, I go to another console and try turning on tcpdump. I get, ex0: promiscuous mode enabled A few seconds of silence and then, "Boom!" ping packets are flying. If I go back to the ttyv where I was pinging, suddenly things are alive. When I turn off tcpdump, thing continue to work fine after we switch back out of promiscuous mode. It seems like the network card is not being properly initialized by the system. I have tried re-ifconfiging it, but the tcpdump seems the only thing that wakes it up that I have found. Has anyone seen this? Anyone have a solution? Anyone have suggestions for documenting it so it can be debugged and fixed? Thanks. -- Crist J.

Hi,
 

I'm trying to get my FreeBSD 3.3 box up and running as a gateway between
2 local subnets. I have already recompile the kernel with the IPFIREWALL,
IPFIREWALL_FORWARD, IPFILTER, DUMMYNET, and BRIDGE options.
Currently the firewall rule is allow all from any to any.
 
            subnet1 -- gw -- subnet2
 

Here's what I've got at the console when I type netstat -r:
 
localhost       localhost           UH    0   1   lo0
192.168.1/26    link#3              UC    0   0   ep0
gw              <gw ep0 ether addr> UHLW  0   2   lo0
192.168.1.5     <host1 ether addr>  UHLW  1  1550 ep0  694

192.168.2.63    ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff   UHLWb 1   1   xl0
 
But I encountered a problem, when I ping from gw box to host1 box,
I always have the responses back to me in about 10 to 40 seconds.
Then in the host1 machine, I type "tcpdump -i ep0" at the console
and I think host1 runs correctly, because it always reply immediately
after it gets the echo request.
 
When I unplugged my xl0 device out of the machine, everything goes well.
 
 
 

Anyone, please help me fix this problem.
 

Thank you

I've got 288 megs of memory in my box as of today. Because I'm still trying to find my butt in the dark with both hands sometimes I'm freebsd, I do a find . /usr -name *something* -print. Then after that search fails to find what I'm looking for, I do another find command on the /usr tree. I have about 180 megs of memory completely free according to top, and yet still I hear it heavily read the hard drive to read that directory structure. What I compare that to is this, both in windows, using the Find File dialog, and in DOS, with SmartDrv loaded, using dir /s /b, the entire directory structure would have been long since loaded into cache, saving alot of time for many applications finding their files. I would think that if one has the available memory, one should have enough caching so that the hard drive isn't abused more that it has to be. It's not a matter of control, and I don't see how you can say it's the best it can be and that everyone is too busy working on other things to improve this issue. I'm simply trying to give some constructive criticism, and to see if maybe I was the one missing something. I'm by no means ranting that FreeBSD's caching is terrible, and that I'm dissatisfied with it, I was just looking for an alternative to having nearly 200 megs of memory free while my hard drive produces the same directory tree twice in a row :/ I have enabled soft updates, which lead to a _major_ improvement in the beat down that my disk was taking before. If softupdates can be such a savior and performance improver, prehaps there are other possibilities which could also be of use. I'm simply trying to draw other's conjecture and opinions, in case I was missing some obvious option. Knowing my luck there would be some setting in rc.conf that I missed that says DiskCache=8120 and I would be sitting there with 180 megs free going "Damn, my hard drive is taking a beat down !". In any case, my opinion is this. There's never a one size fits all. You can make the best algorithm for determining the size of disk cache you possibly can, and it's not going to fit *every* situation. Therefore, I would suggest that the default engine be used, _unless_ the admin feels they have a better idea. It can't hurt to try it, and if the admin's selection for disk cache isn't faster/more efficient, one could always turn it back. I don't see how a "just use what's there" attitude is relevent to the situation. BTW, I was just thinking, I've looked at the cache as I was running certain applications with top. It seems to me that the operating system caches files that *processes* have open. It doesn't seem to cache general areas of the disk that are hit by alot of processes, like the directory tree itself. It seems as though the caching for a particular area of disk is dropped, once the process using that area (files) exits. Therefore, we aren't getting the more general disk caching that Win9x/DOS uses. This is just my opinion/guess after monitoring the behavior of programs run, and the size of the cache as they start, run, and exit. If I'm wrong I beg your pardon. But if I'm right, prehaps another scheme could be considered. I'm just hoping we're all open minded here, and comfortable if some nobody comes up and shouts out that the emperor is naked or something. I'm not even saying that the emperor is naked, simply that he could probably do a little better with a different outfit. I'm sure the project wouldn't be where it is today if people simply accepted the current state as the best that could be done. I used to consider myself to be a very talented C programmer, and I still do as compared to the rest of the students at my college, but I'm amazed by the size and complexity of some of the projects that are worked on here. I'm very interested in seeing what I can do to help improve things, because I've started to move alot of my machines to FreeBSD, hence I have an interest in how well it performs. Hopefully, someday I'll be good enough to help out on a development level on this kind of project. I've done a small amount of work on the FreeDOS project (because DOS programming is where I started, it's all so easy and familiar). Although I'm hoping to become an professional programmer someday, I'd still like to be able to contribute to projects such as these. The only problem I have with *nix programming is the environment. I have TurboC++ for DOS, Visual C++ 6.0 for Win32, Borland Builder 5.0 for Win32, etc. I'm used to programming in some kind of MDI style GUI. Is there something like this for unix ? Something in X maybe ? The Unix APIs don't seem that difficult (can't be harder than Win32 API), it's simply the environment that keeps me from really getting comfortable coding in unix. Any information greatly appriciated, and sorry about the totally huge post. Next time I'll write a novel and mail it. :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Mar 27 21:53:33 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com [24.2.89.207]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EAEF737B792 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 21:53:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id AAA12412; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 00:52:52 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjc) Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 00:52:52 -0500 From: "Crist J.

Please believe me when I repeat, "You need to get out of the windows mindset." :) Unix is not just windows with a different interface. It's a TOTALLY different way of doing things. See below for a few details. Jeremiah Gowdy wrote: > Well, basically, the way I'm seeing it is this. I've got 288 megs of memory > in my box as of today.

You don't want to do that. :) You want to get friendly with a command called locate. What this command does is read from a database of the disk's directory structure and tell you where stuff is. It has many advantages, not the least of which is blinding speed. If locate complains about the size of the database being too small, run 'periodic weekly' as root. If that doesn't work (and I'm talking worst case scenario) take a look at /etc/periodic/weekly/310.locate and work through the commands in that file till you figure out what the problem is. The man pages are your friend. :) > What I compare that > to is this, both in windows, using the Find File dialog, and in DOS, with > SmartDrv loaded, using dir /s /b, the entire directory structure would have > been long since loaded into cache, Ok, now it's time to learn a little about windows. :) The first time you run find file it actually creates the same type of directory structure database that the locate.updatedb command does. That's why subsequent searches are so fast. It has the information in the db, not cached in memory. > saving alot of time for many applications > finding their files. I would think that if one has the available memory, > one should have enough caching so that the hard drive isn't abused more that > it has to be. It already does this, just not in the way you think it does. The disk cache algorithm DOES cache frequently used files. You'll notice this the _second_ time you use locate, and all/most of the db is in cache. Same goes for things like man pages, etc. > It's not a matter of control, and I don't see how you can say > it's the best it can be and that everyone is too busy working on other > things to improve this issue.

None of the things you describe in this section are the way things actually work, which is why I said you really need to dig into the details a little more, using tools more sophisticated than top. Start with the *stat's, like vmstat and iostat, and start patrolling around the associated man pages. I would suggest that you do some reading on what unix is and how it works. Start with "Essential System Administration" from O'Reilly, and then head in the direction that interests you. Before during and after that I'd highly recommend reading the entire FreeBSD Handbook and FAQ. They will go a long way towards redirecting your energy in healthier directions. Good luck, Doug -- "So, the cows were part of a dream that dreamed itself into existence? Is that possible?" asked the student incredulously. The master simply replied, "Mu."

Here is solution: Boot the system with the Compaq System Configuration disks. Press CTRL-A at the main menu to get into the advanced mode. Select "Configure hardware" from the menus. Then select "View and edit details". Scroll down to the "Advanced features" section and set the processor APIC mode to "Full Table". Save the new hardware configuration to CMOS. Reboot the system.

Thanks for the information. I have a copy of the FreeBSD handbook and I have The Complete Unix Reference by Osborne, but I've yet to locate a unix book that goes more into the details of the OS itself, rather than simply explaining the basics of setup and administration. I'll get that O'Reilly and see if I can't put a little more knowlege behind my constructive comments :) Thanks for going easy on the dressing down, I know how it is trying to enlighten those who have just enough knowlege to know how to talk about something, but not enough to understand it :) After being so knowlegable about Win32 API/Networking/NT/etc it's hard taking a step down and being new at something. I'm learning new things about FreeBSD on a daily, if not hourly, basis, partly because I'm subscribed to nearly all of the major BSD lists. Hopefully, in time I'll be able to contribute. Thanks again.

You can't do that with two disks on a single IDE controller: it performs the transfers one after another. If you want performance on IDE drives, use one controller per drive.

I run the process in the background with an ampersand & as an argument. I generally run the process very late at night and the cpu is typically averaging at least 85-90% idle so I don't know if that is the problem.

I've just installed FreeBSD 3.3 and now I want to move all the users of my old system, Window NT, to FreeBSD so that preserving all users' passwords. I found that I can use the crypt(string,salt) function of Perl to encrypt the passwords to the NBS Data Encryption Standard (DES), as the same way as FreeBSD's CRYPT(3) does. I made a script to encrypt the passwords (in cleartext form) to DES form , tested it in FreeBSD , and suceeded. I think I can use that script for my aim. But I still have some questions because I didn't know about the crypt function before and I'm still a newbie in FreeBSD. The first one is whether the encrypted passwords from the crypt function are really security like the passwords made by FreeBSD , and it will compatible with the YP/NIS interaction? Another question is Can I specify any two characters for the salt parameter? Please help me as soon as possible. Thanks you very much in advance.

Yes, well, it seems the only safe way of 'giving' files to anyone when you're not superuser, is to set up the file permissions, and have that user copy the file.

Yes. Suppose I am evil and want to delete all of your files. Normally I could not do it, because you are careful and allow only yourself to write your files (the permissions are, for example: -rw-r--r--). But if I could give you ownership of a file, I could create a shell program with the line 'rm -r ~you/*', make it setuid and executable, and give you ownership of it. Then if I run it, it will run with your uid, and will happily delete all of your files. To prevent this and similar security breaches, only root can change file ownership.

I have gone through ORA book "DNS and BIND" over and over and over but I still cannot set it up correctly to be authoritative for my own little net. My 3.3 system is the server that connects by modem to my ISP with a dynamic IP and uses PPP to interface to it. My routing works, since all of my systems can ftp, browse, etc. the internet. I can ping any system on my net or those outside of my net but I suspect this is because of the hosts files. I had DNS working on my 2.2 system, but somehow it just has not worked since I installed 3.3. Can anyone help? Here are my resolv.conf, localhost.rev, named.conf files.

I have begun to read TeX documentation, anyway, ... *sigh* *sigh* Rather use Docbook with SGML/XML, and use jade and jadetex to convert them. In fact, I think with a little work, you can probably generate .pdf from .html with jade, but I won't promise anything. Take a look at the FreeBSD Documentation Project, and what we do with Docbook.

I skipped 3.4-Stable, because it panics on me all the time. My network stopped working. Both dial out and internal. Short version: # no longer works in ppp authname, and it is required for netcom accounts; network card drivers have a tendency to get changed, you must config out of the kernel what they get changed to. Mine went from de to dc, which notably have about the same description in the GENERIC config file. Long version: Netcom ppp userids start with '#'. This is not my choice. This was fine in FreeBSD 3.4 Release ppp.conf: set authname #jaykrell set authkey **** worked fine. Upgrade to FreeBSD 4.0-Stable (3.4-Stable panics all the time on me), ppp connections are dropped as soon as they are made (ok, actually they don't get made, but they dial and the modems connect). If you ppp interactively, it says "warning: sending empty pap name". # comments are supposed to start at the beginning of a line, after optional whitespace, not anywhere, right? I can now see that comment handling in ppp has churned a lot, but from the diffs I can't tell what the code used to do or does now, though I can infer from my regressed experience. I can't get much done with grep and vi, and have no X or emacs installed and couldn't ftp the sources over to NT to use VC's find in files, only look at the ,v files in a copy of the repository, so rather than make # comments start at the start of a line I just brute force changed the comment character. cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp vi x.pl (doing this from a command line -e did the wrong thing) while (<>) { s/'#'/'%'/; print; } perl -pi.bak x.pl *.c cd /etc/ppp vi x.pl while (<>) { s/#/%/; print; } vi ppp.conf; fix user name from %jaykrell to #jaykrell cd /usr/src/usr.sbin make clean make make install Ok, now ppp connections got all the way up and stayed. But my internal network still wasn't working. Fiddle around with ifconfig, -l..um, dc? My network card was de in 3.4... add dc to /etc/rc.conf. Still no luck. Upon boot it reported "watchdog timeout". I'm using a GENERIC kernel. cp GENERIC JAYK1, remove all network cards except de, and other stuff I don't use, parallel ports, scsi, all but one serial port, acpi/laptop, etc. Rebuild kernel. Now it works. Ah. That was way way too hard. - Jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Mar 28 3:35:13 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cwb.pacific.net.hk (cwb.pacific.net.hk [202.14.67.92]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 30EDB37BE64 for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 03:35:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from alexkwan@pacific.net.hk) Received: from kwaifong.pacific.net.hk (kwaifong.pacific.net.hk [202.14.67.7]) by cwb.pacific.net.hk with ESMTP id TAA18627; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 19:35:05 +0800 (HKT) Received: from alexkwan (ppp193.dyn29.pacific.net.hk [202.64.29.193]) by kwaifong.pacific.net.hk with SMTP id TAA14345; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 19:35:03 +0800 (HKT) Message-ID: <000a01bf98aa$08d803e0$c11d40ca@alexkwan> From: "Alex Kwan" To: "Mark Ovens" Cc: References: <000701bf973f$cdea9560$701e40ca@alexkwan> <20000327210504.B233@parish> Subject: Re: Change font style for xterm & kde Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 19:37:41 +0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi!

In System V, users can chown theis files, and setuid bits are removed from permissions during this. In BSD, users are not allowed to chown their files at all for disk quotas. Because otherwise a user could bypass disk quotas, by 'chown -R user my_large_directory'.

As many have suggested, Webmin does the types of features we'd like. However, from our experience, webmin seems to be more for the system administrators rather than for web hosting clients eventhough you can create different user accounts with specific privilege and services the clients can administrate. The other concern is that webmin runs as a mini HTTP server itself, and we don't have any clue how good it is in handling large concurrent requests and other performance and security issues. What Susie has recommended here definitely worth a visit. The H*Sphere product does exactly what we're looking for.

Have read man chown meanwhile.It is obvious as described by you. Almost any utility/programm/routine can be misused as we have seen and present double-edged sword,though So from my lame point of view following situation is also possible: Two users want to share some files in rather unrestricted manner. Unfortunately,they are not in the same group due to whatever reasons so as far i can see(not very far indeed)they will have 2 possibilities: Holding permissions bits set to 777(not very wise imho) or to have chown working for them.As to dangers following could be feasible: Maintaining 2 files in every user's home directory .chown_accept and .chown_deny.With initial setting of.chown_deny:Deny ALL files from ALL ANY size(in case someone just want to ovverrun quotas)and possibility to make policy less restrictive.UNIX is not Bell-Lapadulla system so it is not need to pretend it is. kind regards, Ariel > > 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 Mar 28 6:41:33 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from plains.NoDak.edu (plains.NoDak.edu [134.129.111.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1680937BE7E for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 06:41:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tinguely@plains.NoDak.edu) Received: (from tinguely@localhost) by plains.NoDak.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) id IAA07939; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 08:41:15 -0600 (CST) Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 08:41:15 -0600 (CST) From: Mark Tinguely Message-Id: <200003281441.IAA07939@plains.NoDak.edu> To: aranjan@hss.hns.com, questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: 'mbuf' implementation in TCP/IP stack related Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I came across the reference of 'mbuf' implementation in Comer's book on > TCP/IP (Vol 2). Can you point me to the source code for TCP/IP > implementation so that I can take a closer look. A mbuf is a memory buffer and is used to hold the incoming or outgoing packet through the network code. Comer states that the mbuf holds up to 128 bytes of transport data, but there is also an external mbuf type that can hold much larger data. In BSD, the important mbuf files are /usr/include/sys/mbuf.h (aka /sys/sys/mbuf.h) and /sys/kern/uipc_mbuf.c. There is a good section on MBUFs in the book "The Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System" by McKusick, Bostic, Karel, and Quarterman; Addison-Wesley 1996 (a little old, but is a good foundation). --mark tinguely.

I began by using CVSup in order to update the sources, and then I did the following: cd /usr/src make buildworld cd /usr/src/sbin/mknod make install cd /usr/src/sys/modules make install cd /usr/src This has all worked. Now as I try to configure my kernel /usr/sbin/conifg MYKERNEL I get the following error: config: can't open ../conf/devices.i386 I would really appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks, Frederick.

Seems you *ought* to be able to give your files away if that example is the only security breach that would be involved - you'd just have to have a secure system for setuid modifications. Another thought is that if you give ownership of the file to someone else, you would not be able to take it back, and that could, theoretically, become troublesome if the other person decided they didn't want the file. They could decide to be difficult and leave the 40Meg file you just gave them in your home directory and you'd never be able to get rid of it without asking Mr. Root to help. Honestly, though, why not just have the other user make a copy of the file in question? chmod 644 so they can read it and when they make their own copy of the file it would be under their permissions. -- Derrick Baumer bduk@earthlink.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Mar 28 9: 1:45 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wonka.esatclear.ie (wonka.esatclear.ie [194.145.128.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8746C37C058 for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 09:01:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from d.garvan@esatclear.ie) Received: from pt7y6 (h-airlock159.esatclear.ie [194.165.161.159] (may be forged)) by wonka.esatclear.ie (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id SAA19903 for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 18:00:56 +0100 Message-ID: <003001bf98d8$68ebb960$9fa1a5c2@pt7y6> From: "davidgarvan" To: Subject: project Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 18:09:41 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_002D_01BF98E0.C9AB3480" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_002D_01BF98E0.C9AB3480 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi there, i'm doing a project that involves making an operating system in C and = running it on UNIX, like all lecturers they don't help you 'cos they = probably don't know the answers themselves, anyhow, i have questions = such as design a program that verifies that all blocks are either free = or allocated to an i-node or write the algorithm for the cd command - = where can i find such info, have you any suggestions, thanks for your time, David. ------=_NextPart_000_002D_01BF98E0.C9AB3480 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Another method of installation, in case you didnt know, is to do: pkg_add -r mysql-server (This should also install the client as a dependency, but dont quote me on that - once you've install the server, check pkg_info and see.) 'pkg_add -r' will do the same as downloading the package manually and pkg_add'ing it, except that it will get the file for you.

I have removed the faulty drive from the computer but have not done any thing else with that machine. The crash occurred during an FTP transfer of the data from one machine to another. After examining the aftermath of the crash, it turns out that I did not lose anything critical. It seems that the important, hard to regenerate stuff got transferred. As far as what was lost, probably half of it I really did not need to keep any way. Of the rest, I can fairly easily regenerate the data if need be. It is an inconvenience of course. That being said I do not think it is worth the time, mine or yours, to try to recover, unless you think it could be done fairly quickly.

I have read about the requirement of the root file system > needing to be installed within the 1024 cyl. Because my BIOS can handle > very large HDD, am I still limited by this?**** I just added FreeBSD 4.0 to my working Windows 2000 Pro/NT4/Win 98 system. None of my windows systems are located in my "C" drive. It is available for handling file transfers between DOS, NT4, and etc. I don't have Linux on any of my systems. I tried it first and then pulled the HD from the system and added FreeBSD. The Linux HD is still on the shelf in the conductive wrapper. I configured the system with a 2GB FAT, a 13GB FreeBSD slice, and a 4.5GB extended partition. The / partition needs to be under cylinder 1023. It a 100MB and is the first partition in my 13GB system. I tried installing FreeBSD 3.4 first but that didn't work. I kept getting "Illegal Partitions" when I added anything after the FreeBSD slice. The 3.4 fdisk is doing something bogus and breaks my system. 4.0, on the other hand, produced no problems and worked on the first try. I installed 4.0 from the iso that I downloaded and burned the image to a CDROM. You have to be able to switch the active partition back to the NT loader after you install FreeBSD. I use my Win 98 startup disk's fdisk to do that. This step is the largest pain in the whole process.

My guess is that the portmapper is getting a tcp connection, which the remote end closes almost immediately. Then when the wrapping code goes to to dup the discriptor which is supposed to be connected it finds it is unconnected. I don't think you need to worry about it anyway. David.

I've just been reading through the sendmail (8.9) antispam documents - I'm having trouble understanding exactly how the rules work. The client in question expects to have staff loging on to the server via a NAS as well as via the internet. How can I ensure that mail sent by staff on remote internet connections and dialing in via the NAS will not be rejected. Is the /etc/mail/relay-domains the correct file to be using - what should go in here? the IP addresses pool for the NAS - what entries would be required for staff accessing over the internet?

First, what does it mean when you append an '@' to a field, eg: :ignoretime@:\ does this have something to do with unsetting boolean varibles? Second, the 'ignoretime' field is not in the login.conf manpage, what is it for? Lastly, can somebody give me an overview of how to use the 'cputime' field. I know how to enter the time, but what exactly will it do. Thanks in advance for any help.

I boot from CD and partition my drive (FreeBSD will co-exist with WIn98.) I then let the BootMgr take everything over. I proceed with the rest of the install (install basic software, configure X, etc...) I then conclude the install and reboot. When I reboot, I get the following menu: -------- F1: DOS F3: FreeBSD Default: F1 -------- When I try to press F3 my system will simply produce a beep from the pc speaker. Yet if I press F1 the system will immediatly boot into Windows. Anyone have any clues on what I am doing wrong, or what I could do to get into FreeBSD.

I am getting the mount filesystem thing down. However I have two main concerns at this moment. First is sound cards. I have a creative live value pack pci sound card. The system doenst recognize it from the Generic kernel, which I understand. However I can't seem to find the specific command I need to either mount the sound card as a device and/or what is the specific command I should input into my own kernel. The complete freebsd mentions isa sound cards but not pci. Second is window managers. I was using kde as my desktop but it doest seem that stable, locks up easy, doesnt handle adding new packages well. I know this is likley a matter of choice, but can you folks recommend a stable windows manager that would be good for a newbie to latch onto? Last I have been told from people that I choose to difficult of a unix system to learn on and that I should switch over to linux Redhat. I dont want to, but would that be better as a Newbie. Thanks again, and I am determined not to give up:) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Mar 28 12:52:49 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.cliftoncpa.com (mail.cliftoncpa.com [206.31.22.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 48F0437BFD7 for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 12:52:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from JohnMiller@cliftoncpa.com) Received: from CG_DOM-Message_Server by mail.cliftoncpa.com with Novell_GroupWise; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 14:53:46 -0600 Message-Id: X-Mailer: Novell GroupWise 5.5.2 Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 14:53:29 -0600 From: "John Miller" To: Subject: IPFW and VPN 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 I have FreeBSD 3.3 installed and am using IPFW as a firewall solution.

About what? You didn't tells us what problem you're asking about. :) Assuming that you are asking why the default rule is deny, try compiling without the IPFIREWALL_FORWARD option.

This is on dual PIII 500's with mega ram. How complex are your CGI? trivial CGI apps here run 10 per second on a pentium 233 with 64MB ram that also happens to be my workstation, or 2 per second when a regular CGI in perl that uses CGI.pm (a fairly heavy startup penalty). I strongly recommend FCGI (or something similar) when you need speed with your CGI scripts, especially when they're in perl.

Ignore the naysayers; this is pure rubbish. *Any* version of Unix is going to present some difficulties to a first-time newbie. The real question is: which version of Unix is worth the effort? I've tried RedHat a few times. Never understood what people saw in it. You've made the right choice, I assure you. :-) > Thanks again, and I am determined not to give up:) That's the spirit!

If my guess was right, there is a good chance it could be a portscan. Tracing the IP address is probably a bit harder. I'll experiment at home and see if I can reproduce this. David.

There's a way to increase the timeout on waiting, I think it might just be timeout somelargenumber; in the dhcp config file. I had to do this once when setting up a machine, but don't remember exactly what the value was, and I can't check it conveniently.

To complete the story: for linux you have four options: - the first one is the same as for BSD. minimal root partition below 1024 cylinders. But the next one is nicer. - Only a boot partition under 1024 cylinder. The kernel is loaded from the boot partition, the boot partition is mounted under /boot, and the root filesystem is allowed to be above 1024 cylinders. Check LILO docs. IIRC for following two ways, the root partition is allowed to be above 1024 cylinders. The neat way: - Add "linear" to your lilo.conf, and rerun lilo. (Only works on "modern" bioses) again: check lilo docs and howto's OR - Boot to dos if you want to boot to linux, and use loadlin to boot the kernel. check loadlin docs.

Just unzip/tar it into your home directory, no need to move the contents into /usr/port. Go into apache13 and "make all install" (as root). The cd into any of the remaining mod_* directories and "make all install" (as root). IMHO, this is the future of the apache port tree: one apache port, and module ports that use apxs to install as DSO's... without having to rebuild apache. Using this port collection I have successfully installed the following apache server: Apache/1.3.12 PHP/3.0.15 (MySQL) FrontPage/4.0.4.3 mod_ssl/2.6.2 OpenSSL/0.9.4 Ahhh... bliss. I added PHP3 on my own using "configure --with-apxs" while building it. Piece of cake. Thanks to Scott Hetzel for putting the original port packages together. Hopefully this will be part of the standard port collection soon. It sure as heck beats having 6 totally separate apache13-* ports. jon At 1:42 PM -0600 2/24/00, Richard Majerus wrote: >Greetings, >I am looking for a Software Developer or Company that has FrontPage ported >to FreeBSD. >I know you are all seeing in this area and was hoping for your help. >Thanks, >Rich Majerus >Rmajeru@uswest.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Mar 28 14:42:51 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from pop.idx.com.au (pop.idx.com.au [203.14.30.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 00F6C37BECB for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 14:42:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dannyh@idx.com.au) Received: from freebsd.freebsd.org (idxwc02-182.idx.com.au [203.166.0.182]) by pop.idx.com.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id IAA24199; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 08:40:58 +1000 From: Danny To: R Joseph Wright , Conrad Sabatier Subject: Re: Is it just me, or are the mailing lists messed up?

[verbiage about possible reasons for e-mail failures snipped for brevity] I think I may know what happened. I was just reviewing my logs under FreeBSD, which is my OS of choice and the one I run about 99.99% of the time. Saturday afternoon I had rebooted into Windows to do something. Since I'm on quite a few mailing lists, which I have filtered and sorted into various folders under FreeBSD, I generally don't check my e-mail when I'm using Windows, as was the case last Saturday. This is very likely when the problem arose. Under FreeBSD, I run a background fetchmail process every five minutes, so my remote mailbox will never overflow. Apparently, I was in Windows just long enough for an overrun to occur, and mail must have started bouncing back to the FreeBSD mailing lists' majordomo server, which I've been told will automatically unsubscribe an address from which it receives an excessive number of bounces. Again, I'm just assuming this may have been the cause. I could be mistaken. I would greatly appreciate it if you could check your system logs for any clues as to what actually did occur. Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated.

It sounds like you have your / partition in the wrong place. It can't be above cylinder 1023, which works out to be ~8.4GB. I have a 2GB fat and then a 13GB Freebsd slice. My / partition is the first in the FreeBSD slice. It boots just fine.

This box will serve as a gateway/router/firewall for my home network. Eventually I hope to add a wireless interface for my laptop. I have a DSL connection to the net. I chose V4 because it recognizes my WaveLan PCI-PCMCIA adapter at boot. At this point, I've managed to install and recompile the kernel (adding IPFIREWALL & IPDIVERT). I have "named" running. I setup named.conf. I have the firewall set to open until I get the network Everything works fine from the FreeBSD box. I can ping by IP or domain name both inside and outside of the network. From my Windoze box, I can ping within the network but only by IP. I can't ping outside of the network. The Windoze box uses 192.168.0.1 as the gateway and DNS. I've included the (edited) rc.conf. if that helps. Any ideas where I screwed up?

I'm not too worried about it anyhow, it only happened once that I got all these duplicates. I suppose it could also be connected to the fact that I recently unsubscribed and then re-subscribed after changing ISP's but as long as it isn't FreeBSD related, I'm done with this discussion.

While it has been quite a learning experience, and I am still very much a newbie, I am enjoying my new OS. In addition, I have installed it on a machine at work, and things seem to be running fine. However, despite all I have been reading, my experience with the stability of fbsd on my home machine has been less than satisfactory. I am running 3.4-Release with KDE. Over the last two days, my system has crashed 3 times. Two times happened immediately after closing a netscape 4.72 browser window and once after closing a kppp config dialog. FreeBSD Stable & KDE == Stable?? Usually I was doing several things at once, and all three times I was connected to the internet with a modem using user ppp. I knew I was in trouble in each case when my mouse froze up. Shortly thereafter my system would do an automatic reboot. Trying to repeat the steps after the reboot to see if I could get it to crash again have always failed.

While it has been quite a learning experience, and I am still very much a newbie, I am enjoying my new OS. In addition, I have installed it on a machine at work, and things seem to be running fine. However, despite all I have been reading, my experience with the stability of fbsd on my home machine has been less than satisfactory. I am running 3.4-Release with KDE. Over the last two days, my system has crashed 3 times. Two times happened immediately after closing a netscape 4.72 browser window and once after closing a kppp config dialog. FreeBSD Stable & KDE == Stable?? Usually I was doing several things at once, and all three times I was connected to the internet with a modem using user ppp. I knew I was in trouble in each case when my mouse froze up. Shortly thereafter my system would do an automatic reboot. Trying to repeat the steps after the reboot to see if I could get it to crash again have always failed.

I'm running 3.3-Release (according to uname) and I ran cvsup with this command /usr/local/bin/cvsup -L 2 /usr/sup/ports-supfile with the following info in ports-supfile. *default host=cvsup7.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix umask=002 ports-all Everything seemed to run fine and I didn't get any errors. I'm looking in particular to upgrade apache and php, but really just need to recompile apache to user mod_usertracking. Now when I go to /usr/ports/www/apache13-php3 and type make fetch or even just make, I get the following error message: ===> apache+php-1.3.12+3.0.15 : Your system is too old to use this bsd.port.mk. You need a fresh make world or an upgrade kit. Please go to http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ or a mirror site and follow the instructions. I went to the ports page and got a little confused. I see the upgrade packages, but does that upgrade FreeBSD or just the related files necessary for using the newer versions of the ports. Basically, I'm really new at this and a little over my head and not wanting to destroy a production machine. From the description, it appears it will upgrade 3.3R to -stable and it looks like there is only one file in the 3.3 or 3.4 to 3-stable upgrade kit which is /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4 Since I'm a chicken right now... I'd rather just use the older ports for now until I learn more. My question is this: Instead of doing the system upgrade on a live machine with the upgrade package, should I wipe out the ports directory, restore them by mounting one of my backup hard drives and then rerun cvsup changing from tag=. to tag=RELENG_3_3_0_RELEASE or can I just rerun cvsup making the above change, sort of backdating the ports. Any help or other tips would be greatly appreciated.

One is M$ OS on drive one and FreeBSD on drive two. Both OSes boot just fine from BootEasy. The other machine has FreeBSD 4.0 on the first drive and my old FreeBSD 3.4 on the second. Both work fine. Oh, and there is one machine that I have been using for a while that has Windows on drive one and FreeBSD on drive two. But on that machine, I did not want to touch the first drive so I just have a floppy that starts the boot process and takes it to the second drive. -- Crist J.

I believe that this would be a worthwhile venture, as there are many reasons that people would want to access extended logical partitions from FreeBSD. In Linux, extended partitons are the only way to go (unless you want to have one huge dodgy monolythic partition), especially if you want to run multiple OSes. You have obviously already included support for basic DOS primary partition tables, how much harder is an extended partition table?. Currently, this is the only thing holding me back from using FreeBSD, but I think I'll go ahead and install it anyway ... NetBSD/OpenBSD don't include support for extended partitions, do they? Thanks for the great OS, and keep up the good work ...

Probably the most effective way to do it would be to create another group with write priviliges to the 'data' directory so that you (and users of your choice) can edit the pages there. To do that you'll need to do something like: Add a new group to /etc/group similar to this one for instace: webadmin:*:1002:user1,user2,user3 Next, you'll need to chmod all the files and directories inside of your data directory to be writeable by your new group. :) You can use the find and chmod commands to do this nice and quickly.

If you stay with -RELEASE you will quickly find that if you cvsup you'll need to install upgrade kits unless you're running -STABLE. The downside is that the packages on the CD become null and void (I stand under correction here) but you will still be able to use the source .tar.gz files on the CD's for the ports (provided that the version you're installing is the same as the one on the CD). For more information, you should see: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html Hope this helps. Cheers, Marc On Tue, Mar 28, 2000 at 10:38:11PM -0600, David J.

Check out the man page for it, it's located in /etc. You could also give xdm a try. It starts xconsole as part of its normal process, and when you log in you inherit it to your desktop.

I'm not promising that I can help, but I'm pretty sure that nobody else can either until you provide us with more information. Can you send us your exact kernel config and copy down by hand exactly what you see at the ddb prompt (I assume it's ddb and not db)?

Can anybody tell me what is the real (significant) differences between FreeBSD and OpenBSD? I had look throught OpenBSD 2.6 installation notes and don't see too much differences between them, except that OpenBSD do use FFS A6 while FreeBSD use A5. What does it mean and what does that give to them? And one more. I was impressed by them, when they describe using excistion Linux installation for linux emulation, is is possible to do the same thing with FreeBSD? Thanks, and sorry for my bad english.

No, it's not true; IME most packages from the 3.3 CDs at least work OK on 3.4. There may be a few exceptions, but I haven't noticed many.

I think it's already supported - try accessing slices 5-8, i.e. mount_msdos /dev/ad0s5 /foo or whatever. Or am I misunderstanding what you mean? Slices 5-8 represent partitions within a DOS extended partition, which I think is what you're talking about. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 3:47:53 2000 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 1468D37BE1C for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 03:47:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk ([192.168.91.36] ident=exim) by scientia.demon.co.uk with esmtp (Exim 3.12 #1) id 12aGwt-000F2v-00; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 12:47:47 +0100 Received: (from ben) by strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk (Exim 3.12 #7) id 12aGwt-000IsD-00; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 12:47:47 +0100 Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 12:47:47 +0100 From: Ben Smithurst To: francois laurand Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Why XFree sources don't go in /usr/src ?

I am using sh for my shell. I have edited the prompt setting in the .shrc file in the home dir but it didn't work quite the way I expected it to. below is what I have in this file. what I had before was the same, I only added the "| `pwd'#" & $ sections. PS1="`whoami`@`hostname | sed 's/\..*//'`" case `id -u` in 0) PS1="${PS1}|`pwd`# ";; *) PS1="${PS1}|`pwd`$ ";; esac This gives the the prompt that I want (username@host|$) but it dosn't change when I change paths. I searched the archives for the mailing list and found somethig about using CD insteadof PS1 but not sure what CD is or how to set that up. Also I seem to be having a problem with some commands that are located in my /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin not running. I get the error message command not found and have to enter the full path with the command. I've checked and these paths are in my path setting. this happens mainly with programs that I've installed and not with the commands and programs that install orignally. If someone could explain this to me or point me to the documentation about this that I've been missing. i am sure it's out there somewhere I just can't seem to find it Thanks, To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 4: 6:14 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from pointer.raytheon.co.uk (pointer.raytheon.co.uk [193.115.14.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5524937C021 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 04:06:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Chris.Smith@raytheon.co.uk) Received: from retriever.raytheon.co.uk (unverified) by pointer.raytheon.co.uk (Content Technologies SMTPRS 2.0.15) with ESMTP id ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 13:11:59 +0100 Subject: Re: Free memory To: Jesus Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Chris.Smith@raytheon.co.uk Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 12:59:14 +0000 Message-Id: X-MIMETrack: Serialize by Router on RSLHUB/SVR/RAYTHEONUK(Release 5.0.2c (Intl)|2 February 2000) at 29/03/2000 13:04:54 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, Use:- $ top and look at the top section or use $ vmstat and look puzzled.

The sources of FreeBSD are available in various ftp-mirrors. The list of mirrors can be found at: * Note that the `cd' command is `internal' to the Unix shell, ie it's not a separate executable. You can find among the sources of FreeBSD two different shells, /bin/sh and /bin/csh. Look at the sources of the `bin' collection. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr> See the headers of this message for my public key fingeprint.

You should have a line of: nameserver 192.168.1.1 When your machine reads resolv.conf it wants to find the address of a nameserver.

The problem was not with the latest cvsup, but a corrupt /usr/obj set of files. I want to remove the directory "/usr/obj" and all the files/sub-directories (as it has been corrupted) and start again but; Some of the "lib" files can not be removed using "rm -rf /usr/obj" because of an error message "Operation not permitted" but I moved the directory. ie "mv /usr/obj /usr/obj.corrupt"` After making the move I successfully did a "make buildworld" But how do I remove "/usr/obj.corrupt"?

After much research and some probing of (not-very-helpful) BellSouth tech support, this is what I've done: 1. The DHCP server upline at BellSouth has (I assume) a record of the MAC address of the NIC they installed on the Win98 machine during the original install. I put this card (which is xl0) in my BSD box and ran dhclient to get a lease. I did not run ifconfig on it as I assume that the DHCP server will take care of that. Netstat seems to show that side working fine and all Internet apps run (fast!!). 2. I understand that dhclient manipulates some of the network config files; /etc/hosts, /etc/resolv.conf and the routing tables. I'm still working my way through /sbin/dhclient-script... 3. The local network (192.168.1.0) has, at present, 2 Win98s, an NT Server and my FreeBSD box. The BSD box has been running as a gateway (troublefree) for months using ppp -alias. 4. Ifconfig ep0 (the original NIC) shows: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:50:04:12:0f:45 all of which should be correct. No change. 5.

Do I need to build something into the kernel? As of FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE, you can add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf: vfs.usermount=1 The /etc/rc.sysctl script will do the right thing with that at boot time. Ciao, Sheldon.

You might want to recompile the kernel - I don't know for sure if it is supported "out of the box". There are flags to set on the wd0/wd1 controller lines to activate DMA, LBA, 32bit access, and such. Check the LINT file for more information.

Try logging out then back in. I *believe* that when you type in a command at the prompt, the system doesn't actually search each directory of your path looking for the file. Instead, it looks at a table in memory that was created when you logged in. If you install a new program in those directories, it wont know about it until you rebuild that table. Honestly, I'm guessing at this - this would be one explanation for the behavior I have witnessed. If somebody else knows better, please say so. Also, if I'm guessing right, is there a command to reload that data without logging out then back in? > If someone could explain this to me or point me to the documentation > about this that I've been missing. i am sure it's out there > somewhere I just can't seem to find it > > Thanks, -- Derrick Baumer - Black Duck Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 7:21:48 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from aragorn.neomedia.it (aragorn.neomedia.it [195.103.207.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 523A837B6D0 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 07:21:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bartequi@neomedia.it) Received: from bartequi.ottodomain.org (ppp2-pa5.neomedia.it [195.103.207.114]) by aragorn.neomedia.it (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id RAA30632; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 17:19:39 +0200 (CEST) From: Salvo Bartolotta Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 16:21:35 GMT Message-ID: <20000329.16213500@bartequi.ottodomain.org> Subject: Re: creating cdrom To: Valery Zamarayev , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: <20000329123131.A1791@sea.com.ua> References: <200003271804.e2RI4rQ02603@mail.hiwaay.net> <20000328150520.A2385@sea.com.ua> <20000328.22572100@bartequi.ottodomain.org> <20000329123131.A1791@sea.com.ua> X-Mailer: SuperCalifragilis X-Priority: 3 (Normal) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Original Message <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< On 3/29/00, 10:31:31 AM, Valery Zamarayev wrote=20 regarding Re: creating cdrom: > On Tue, Mar 28, 2000 at 10:57:21PM +0000, Salvo Bartolotta wrote: > > > I'd also recommend mkhybrid (/usr/ports/sysutils/mkhybrid) to crea= te > > ISO9660 > > > images.

You mentioned it (and I snipped it) - TeX. You can do almost anything in LaTeX - if you don't want to have to learn all the complexity of LaTeX (and if you know HTML it won't be that big a stretch), you can try LyX which is a WYSIWYW (what you see is what you want) frontend to LaTeX.

Only 1 out of 4 FreeBSD boxes here at my home have XFree86 on them, it's not an essential; except for those who require a GUI, which doesnt qualify it for inclusion in the FreeBSD base system. You'll discover over time that the attitude of the FreeBSD core is a major reason behind the success of FreeBSD among those who really appreciate UNIX for what it is (imho). At the end of the day, the base system does it's job, and does it well - and that's what matters. Anything after that is non essential; and does not complement the goal of the operating system. In other UNIX like operating systems, non essential support is added to the base system at the drop of a hat. This can sometimes be a disadvantage to us FreeBSD 'workstation' users, but when I use FreeBSD in a server situation, I really appreciate it.

The command ``uname -a'' will give you the broader FreeBSD version (e.g. FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) and the time at which your running kernel was compiled. This should give folks a fair idea of what version of FreeBSD you're using, provided you keep userland in sync with the running kernel (which you seem to be doing with ``make world'' anyway).

Which is a good question... you (David) should separate potential xwin32 issues from other issues. If you allow telnet into the freebsd box then telnet in from the win box and do setenv DISPLAY x.y.z.w:0.0 xterm where x.y.z.w is your win box IP address. If that doesn't work then make sure you are actually running xwin32 on the win box...

A has a cvs server which is our main repository. i need to put a copy of the repository on the B network. the one on the B network doesn't need to be able to commit or check in or anything like that, it just needs to be able to pull stuff out of the repository. (so cvsup looks good here) anyway, that's all background info, what i need to know is, can i PUSH from A to B instead of trying to PULL? i can connect from A -> B but i cannot connect from B -> A to do a pull. the current (hopefully temporary) solution is to export from A's cvs server and import to B's server. The issue here is the fact that i want these servers to be mirrors of each other, so this method depends on someone running the export/import pair to sync up the servers, which is unacceptable. if anyone has experience with this please let me know!! thanks!! -brian ps: does anyone know how to get WinCVS to work with ssh? i'm a FreeBSD/Solaris geek and my windows skills are lacking, but even seasoned windows people aren't able to figure this out.

I'm not exactly sure what this does other then storing the remote IP into a var DISPLAY. What's happening is X is starting on the server, I can see it running under top. But all I get in the messages window after all of the usual X startup stuff is "using filler Colortype 2 is not rgb/alpha couldn't allocate: background, using White instead" Nothing ever shows up in xwin. And, I keep having to reboot because I'm not sure what to kill to stop X in my ssh window.

Is the /etc/mail/relay-domains the correct file to be using No. You use the access database to enable relaying by clients. Put all your local IP addresses in the access database (actually a plain text file that you compile to a database). If 127.2.3/24 is local for you, then one entry in 'access' would be: 127.2.3 RELAY > - what should go in here? the IP addresses pool for the NAS - what > entries would be required for staff accessing over the internet? For remote access from variable IP addresses, you need to implement POP before SMTP, or better yet sendmail 8.10 SMTP-AUTH. There are pointers to this stuff at www.sendmail.org/~ca If purchasing the software and support is an option, suggest you look at www.sendmai.com for a nice web based admin interface, and support included. > Any assistance would be appreciated, > Marcus -bryan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 9:27:57 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from noc.mainstreet.net (noc.mainstreet.net [207.5.0.45]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6FDCE37B633 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 09:27:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mark@noc.mainstreet.net) Received: (from mark@localhost) by noc.mainstreet.net (8.9.2/8.9.2) id JAA22275; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 09:27:47 -0800 (PST) Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 09:27:47 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <200003291727.JAA22275@noc.mainstreet.net> From: Mark Kent To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: ben@scientia.demon.co.uk In-reply-to: <20000329171813.A50487@strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk> (message from Ben Smithurst on Wed, 29 Mar 2000 17:18:13 +0100) Subject: Re: looking for a report program Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >> Do you know of any good tutorial/introduction type sites about LaTeX?

X applications need to know where to display, and (in csh at least, sorry for the shell-specific notation) the "setenv DISPLAY x.y.z.w:0.0" sets up a variable that X applications look at to determine where to display. >> What's happening is X is starting on the server, I can see it running >> under top. Server? top? Sounds like you are running the X server on the freeBSD box. There is no need for this, nor would it affect the xwin32 on the windows box. You want to run an X application on a freeBSD box and display it on a windows box, right? >> Nothing ever shows up in xwin. And, I keep having to reboot because I'm >> not sure what to kill to stop X in my ssh window. ssh? The fact that xwin32 doesn't work for you but it works for others is a mystery to you, so start to strip things away. Drop ssh, open up telnet, forget about running the X server on the freebsd box. Treat the freeBSD box as a server snd sit in front of the windows box, start Xwin32 on the windows box. Start a telnet window and telnet into the freebsd box and do: csh setenv DISPLAY x.y.z.w:0.0 xterm where x.y.z.w is your win box IP address. This is a basic test and once it works you can then try to get it working the way you really want it to work. However, the fact that you are using ssh makes me believe that you might have something (firewall, router with packet filters) between the windows box and the freebsd box.

The only things to keep in mind are: 1) Install Windows first, as it will overwrite your MBR code during the install, breaking any multi-OS boot loaders such as BootEasy if you install FreeBSD first. 2) The root partition needs to be below the 1023 cylinder mark, or at least the kernel and all of /boot needs to be, so it is easier to create a small root partition near the beginning of the disk and stick /usr and /var closer to the end. Although your BIOS supports more than 1023 cylinders, there isn't a standard way of doing this. Well, there sort of is. LBA is a standard way of getting around it, but you can't use that with older drives or with older controllers. Thus, in the boot loaders, we are forced to use the lowest common denominator, thus you still need to keep /boot and the kernel below the 1023 mark. I hope to someday manage to figure out a good way for determining when the controller and drive both support LBA and to use that to automatically handle larger drives. However, I don't have this done yet. :) > Sincerely, > -Josh -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 11:14:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from imsp074.netvigator.com (imsp074.netvigator.com [205.252.144.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6E20D37B9E6 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 11:14:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from azimomar@netvigator.com) Received: from netvigator.com (tswc5161.netvigator.com [168.70.80.161]) by imsp074.netvigator.com (8.9.3+Sun/8.9.1) with ESMTP id DAA25561 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 03:14:28 +0800 (HKT) Message-ID: <38E25A4B.6BF796A7@netvigator.com> Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 03:32:28 +0800 From: azimomar X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: kernal setting Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hi I have problem for setting up my sound card I am using laptop 166mmx, sound card is yamaha after I add my contronler snd0 device opl0 at the 'make ' processing it always give me error 1 on the screen there are serveral option iare undefied. i.e "MIDIbuf_read/write/open/release/poll/ioctl but I don't know how to do it could help me tks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 11:31:14 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from autson26.autson.com (autson.com [216.65.39.194]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A7D7037B89A for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 11:31:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jason@autson.com) Received: from autson.com ([207.238.175.243]) by autson26.autson.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA34946 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 19:26:08 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from jason@autson.com) Message-ID: <38E259D8.1ACB34C7@autson.com> Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 13:30:33 -0600 From: Jason Organization: Autson Hosting X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Apapted Controller Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am planning on purchasing one of adaptec's PCI 64-bit Ultra 160 Controller Cards (39160) to control 3 Ultra 160 SCA-2 Internal Hard Drives but I didn't see the particular adaptec controller in the supported hardware list.

Is there a mixture of fast and slow internet cards? If so, I've recently read something about this in the FAQ on FreeBSD's website (section on NFS). It could be that the faster machine is sending each block of data faster than the receiver can process, which will cause data corruption, and they keep sending them over and over again, but each time failing for the same reason...

I have turned on logging of time taken to serve requests (as you suggest below), and they show as zeros for some experimental requests (connecting from local LAN). However, I waited *forever* for the corresponding records with my IP to appear in the log. I gave up and restarted the daemon. Only then did the records get written. So, it seems like apache caches info before writing it into log. I guess this is a good feature, saving some HD seeks. I was only confused when the logging behavior changed after I installed apache-php3 in place of plain apache. I guess I'll sort the records before feeding them to my little script. Maybe some config file option controls this logging behavior... > If you use Apache's configurable logging, > http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_log_config.html > you can specify a log record format that includes "%T" to record the > elapsed time (in integer seconds) to process the request.

I agree with your analysis about not using the settings from LINT. However you should also take the output of "mptable" into account. That information should be reliable.

However, today my site is being hit very very hard by people looking for software. And that's the problem. FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE Dual PII at 400Mhz 256MB of RAM The site is using Apache (of course), PHP4, and mySQL. The problem is, the site is nearly totaly dynamic and we were not quite prepared for this kind of a rush of traffic. We're under a redesign at the moment to use better and fewer queries, etc, but that's too far off to move to live right now. So, I'm wonder what I can do to help overcome the problems we are having. It seems mySQL just can't keep up and the queries are taking too long to complete. So, not only does that make the site slow, but very quickly Apache reaches its maximum client limit and so things get REALLY slow (since the queries are slow and you have to wait for an open connection and all those backed up connections that are active are slowing mysql down even more, etc..). Someone had suggested I try putting squid in front of the webserver by changing the webserver's port and then configuring squid to use port 80. I tried this, but it didn't seem to make any difference. If this can be done and will help, does anyone have a squid config file for this? I might have missed something important.. Also, are there any specific mysql command-line options I could use to speed things up? I've anaylzed my queries pretty closely and did manage to find one case where an index solved a lot of problems, but I've looked further and can't see that I'm missing any more important indexes. So now it just seems to be a matter of mysql not being able to complete the queries quite fast enough. (The site seems to be too dynamic for it's own good..) I've messed with setting the "ulimit -n" line in safe_mysqld and all that. It helped a bit, but still not enough to increase the speed far enough to avoid the connection backups. So, what can I do? Any suggestions? Please don't suggest that I rebuild the whole site using static pages as I already know about that option. The problem I have with that option, though, is I would still need to record all of the download and voting stats, etc, and I would have to re-write most of the site just so the stats could be recorded while redirecting back to a static version of the page. (If you've ever done PHP programming, you know how the code is embeded right in the page and so HTML and code are all just one big mess making it VERY hard to split it apart). Also, adding more servers is not realistic (we have no money. :-). Adding RAM is something we plan on doing, but that could take awhile to get it shipped and installed, etc. and I'm not totaly convinced that it would solve the speed problems anyway (mysql alone is taking about 110MB of Ram, so I'm sure it should have stuff pretty well cached the way it is..) I've got Apache limited to 180 clients and it's almost always full due to the slow queries. I can't set that any higher as we don't have the RAM for it and it starts to swap otherwise (which is very evil). Hopefully this is enough information. I'm sure someone out there has had this problem before and I'd appreciate hearing a solution!

I'm having a rather annoying and recurring problem. I boot the machine log in and can do all of root's normal activities, dmesg, ppp, ping, etc. My first problem was when I pinged anything I got the message: sendto: permission denied. So, I installed dns on my machine, rebooted, and now something has happened to my path. I no longer have access to dmesg, ppp, ping, halt, shutdown, reboot, and perhaps many others. I do not have any /sbin anything's in my path, and I did not alter it. I'd like to know first of all where path environments are set for root so I can try to fix this problem? Secondly, has anyone else experienced this problem, I don't want to do a third reinstall only to find this problem comes back 5 minutes later. And, if anyone would know a possible cause. Thanks. Dave.

I searched the archives for the mailing list and found somethig about using CD insteadof PS1 but not sure what CD is or how to set that up. That's because PS1 is set static when you initialize your shell. More modern shells (like Bash) allow you to do dynamic things with your prompt. I would suggest you install Bash, and then take a look at http://freebsd.simplenet.com/Bash-prompts.txt. If you're determined to stick with sh, you can create a function called 'cd' that replaces the builtin cd, and use that function to reset your prompt each time. > Also I seem to be having a problem with some commands that are located in my /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin not running.

I am at the point where I am looking everything over on the system to to ensure that all is well. My disk device is still wd0 and its slices are still: /dev/wd0s1a for root and so on. I have been told that I must use ad0 and slice entries ad0s1a, but I am not sure how to change this. Is it a matter of making the devices themselves and then editing /etc/fstab?

Is it a matter of making the devices >themselves and then editing /etc/fstab? Having just completed the upgrade myself, I can answer this one for you. At someone else's suggestion, I remade all the devices in /dev. You can do this with "cd /dev ; ./MAKEDEV all" as root. This should remake the important devices. Now, you want to compare the list of ad* devices in /dev to the list of your wd* disks in use (you want to make a list of your earlier disk slices, which you can get out of /etc/fstab or by "df"). If there are wd* slices without corresonding ad* entries, you want to use MAKEDEV to create them by hand. Once you have all the devices, you can go in and edit fstab to change the slices to the new entries. There are wd drivers in 4.0 for temporary compatability. Being the cautious type, I'd probably change something like /home and reboot, just to make sure it worked (since you can always fix /home in single user mode and reboot if something breaks).

Without seeing the 'actual' message, I'm only guessing here. I think that the problem is simply a matter of the proper permissions/group combination. Make a 'floppy' group, and put all the users you want to have access to the floppy devices in it.

Please change your mailer settings to wrap text at 70 characters or so.

To have PS1 updated each time you change your working directory, you can do one of two things: a) Install bash from the ports (shells/bash1 or shells/bash2), and set your PS1 in .bashrc with: export PS1='\u@\h|\w\$ ' b) Make `cd' a shell function, that calls `chdir' to do the actual change of the path, and updates PS1 with `pwd` again.

The user on machina has bash as login shell. Due to the way rcp works, it spawns a shell on machinea using rsh, and if that shell is bash, it detects that it is called from rsh and as a special case executes ~/.bashrc despite not running interactively. (This is a documented, albeit somewhat idiosyncratic behavior.) Anyway, the user has something in his ~/.bashrc that doesn't work when the shell doesn't run interactively.

Note that no processes are guaranteed to flush their logs straight away - IIRC they do so (as well as restarting themselves, I think) when they've finished their current request, which could be a while if they're talking to a slow client.

No error messages appeared. But when I reboot( I installed BOOT Manager), it displayed F1: DOS, F3: FreeBSD. I choose F3, it beeps, nothing happend.

I have two NIC's in my box that I hope to be able to do NAT with so I can setup multiple PC's at home. My connection to the Internet is with a cable modem connection from my ISP. I have been successful in getting it DHCP functionality to work to obtain an IP address from my ISP on this box. I have the internal interface working perfectly. I'm now in the process of trying to setup NATD to run. For the life of me I can not figure out what I'm doing wrong...but I can not get the external interface to work. I can obtain an address just fine from the DHCP server...so I know the interface is working to some extent, but I can not ping any host by IP what-so-ever. I've recompiled the kernel to include the IPFIREWALL and IPDIVER options. I've issued the sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 command to enable the box to act as a router and added "gateway_enable='YES'", "natd_enable='YES'", and "natd_interface='xl0'" to the rc.conf file. I've added the "natd 6668/divert" entry to my /etc/services file. I've added "/sbin/ipfw -f flush", "/sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via xl0", and "/sbin/ipfw/add pass all from any to any" to my /etc/rc.firewall file. I've issued the firewall=client sh /etc/rc.firewall command. Any ideas on some additional steps to try or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. -Scott -- ********************************************************************* Scott Hansen home phone: 320.289.2356 St. Cloud, MN 56303 \?/ temtc: ate930 eMail: shansen@astound.net (o o) ICQ: 6370193 ******************************o0O--(_)--O0o************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 15:31:22 2000 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 C300C37BACB for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 15:31:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kline@tera.com) Received: from tera.com (athena.sea.tera.com [207.224.230.169]) by gershwin.tera.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA22560 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 15:31:26 -0800 (PST) Received: by tera.com (8.8.8+Sun/SMI-SVR4) id PAA12444; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 15:31:08 -0800 (PST) From: kline@tera.com (Gary Kline) Message-Id: <200003292331.PAA12444@tera.com> Subject: KDE or other wm setup please?

I am wondering if anybody has had any success using the Panasonic KX-P2123 (without color module) under ghostscript. Specifically, which driver are you using? I tried the generic Epson-compatible 9/24 pin driver (epson) but the results seem haphazard at best. While portions of the text are readable, some of it is duplicated, written in the wrong spot, cut in half, etc... The end result is a mess. I'm sure the postscript file I'm using is good because I can use the X11 device and get a very nice view of the document. This also shows (or seems to) that gs is properly interpreting the file and making a useful conversion. The printer works fine under Windows (sorry) so I know the printer is doing its job right. The only thing left is that I must be using the wrong driver.

OK, I did something dumb. While logged in as root, I wondered why I couldn't get previous commands at the command line by using the up arrow as I had on other systems. I looked up something in a book, and without really checking things out or being careful, I did the following: I used chsh to bring up my login configuration, and used vi to change my login shell from /bin/csh to /bin/bash, saved, exited, and logged out. Of course, I never bothered to see if the file /bin/bash actually existed... Now, when I try to log in as root, it runs the beginnings of a session (the stuff you see before the command prompt), then gives the error "/bin/bash - no such file or directory" and brings me back to the login prompt. I can still log in as my username, but I can't get to any root configuration-type things, and I don't have write access to /bin to install the bash on. Any ideas on how I can get back in the system as root without reinstalling? Any help is appreciated.

Try su to switchuser to root. Or reboot. If the systems says something like 'waiting 9 seconds before booting' press the spacebar and type 'boot -s'. The system wil now boot single user (as root) and you don't need a password if you didn't change /etc/ttys. The default shell is than /bin/sh. Type 'mount -a' to mount every partition and change the shell of root. Type 'ctrl-d' and your system wil start to multiuser mode again.

I think I see. Your CVSup server and client need to support multiplexed mode. I'm not sure when this was introduced, but it can't hurt to upgrade to the current version 16.1. Then you can use: hostA$ ssh -R 4711:localhost:5999 hostB cvsup -h localhost -p 4711 supfile (4711 is just a random, otherwise unused port number.) If the above isn't quite obvious, here's a breakdown: (1) "ssh ... hostB ..." Make an ssh connection from A to B. (2) "-R 4711:localhost:5999" On B, allocate port 4711 and forward connections to it through the existing ssh connection to port 5999 (cvsup) on host A. (3) "cvsup -h localhost -p 4711 supfile" On B, start cvsup and have it connect to port 4711 on the local host. The connection is forwarded because of (2) through the ssh tunnel to the cvsup port on A. You have now established a connection from cvsup on B to cvsupd on A. Once cvsup terminates, so will ssh and the port forwarding. That's an I-give-you-a-little-PUSH-and-then-you-PULL-real-hard model. Additional remarks: * Both ssh and cvsup can compress their connections. For increased efficiency, enable compression only for one but not both. * Of course you can use other IP tunneling and remote execution software, but ssh is usually at hand. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Mar 29 16:42:22 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from node11a94.a2000.nl (node11a94.a2000.nl [24.132.26.148]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 0135D37B91B for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 16:42:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ronald@node11a94.a2000.nl) Received: (qmail 93169 invoked from network); 30 Mar 2000 00:42:15 -0000 Received: from tulip.evertsen.nl (HELO tulip100.evertsen.nl) (10.0.0.6) by node11a94.a2000.nl with SMTP; 30 Mar 2000 00:42:15 -0000 Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 02:42:12 +0200 (CEST) From: Ronald Klop To: Derrick Baumer Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Printer compatibility In-Reply-To: <200003300010.QAA14460@earthlink.net> 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 Maybe it is something with the interupt-driven/polled printer port.

I was wondering why I had such warnings in my latest program compilation: talk.c:104: warning: implicit declaration of function `bzero' The line 104 is: FD_ZERO(&set); After investigation, I found out it was because the FD_ZERO macro defined in is defined as: #define FD_ZERO(p) bzero(p, sizeof(*(p))) So it uses bzero, a function from . It's kinda problematic since the select(2) manpage does not advise to include neither than the types.h manpage include strings.h. And what's worse, the bzero and bcopy() (used by FD_COPY) are non-standard functions.. My program compiles and runs correctly, but I would like to see this warning go away... :) What should be changed? Is this 'fixed' in 4.0? Should I make a send-pr?

I followed the instruction and down load 3.3 or 3.4 to 3-stable upgrade kit and then pkg_add'ed it this did nothing. The strange thing is my buddy is running 3.2-release and he has no problems what so ever and he just ran cvsup as well. So what do I do now ??

Could we see how you have your firewall setup? Saying you added those lines and then mentioning you are using the distributed "client" setup is somewhat contradictory. While getting things to work, use the stock rc.firewall and set 'firewall_type="open"' in rc.conf; the natd divert is in the stock rc.firewall. Once that is working you can start adding restrictive rules. -- Crist J.

Trying to do routing between different physical subnets that are one logical subnet is not a good thing.

This symptom shows you are really in trouble. The system (called kernel) never panics without a reason.

I thought that's what > un*x was all about. It is. BSD, along with a lot of other Unices, seems to make sure all data goes through uncorrupted. Thus, if the kernel detects corrupted data, it panics and, as a last resolve, reboots. The trick to get the system more stable is to detect which part of your box is malfunctioning. To do so, please supply some basic information (output of uname -a, e.g.), as well as your hardware configuration. If you're not using the GENERIC kernel, the configuration file would be nice, too. Without this information, I can take only the most probable wild shot at flakey RAM. > Thanks for any help, or consolation, here.

It is in the ports so you can easily try it out (cd /usr/ports/emulators/wine and make install will do it). > Once I download all the files, (and what all do I need?) how can I install it > without a network connection, or burning it to a cdrom? If you have a cdrom burner then get the ready made ISO-image at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/ this is the simplest way I imagine. The preferred way is otherwise to actually buy the cdbox from walnut creek (makes money go into the freebsd project). ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.4 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 0:41:27 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from snipe.prod.itd.earthlink.net (snipe.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.120.62]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2974B37B739 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 00:41:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dmehler22@earthlink.net) Received: from hellraiser (ip161.dayton11.oh.pub-ip.psi.net [38.31.203.161]) by snipe.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id AAA11988 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 00:41:20 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <000d01bf9a23$50bd9d80$0400a8c0@davemehler.tzo.com> Reply-To: "dave" From: "dave" To: Subject: free ssh windows client.

This process is a zombie (see the state Z). It has died, but its parent is misbehaving and hasn't buried it. You can usually get rid of zombies by getting rid of the parent as well and hoping that the grandparent buries the whole family; possibly the whole tribe may need to be exterminated. Top won't tell you who the parent is. You need ps for that. For example, to find the parent of process 2998, do: $ ps lp2998 UID PID PPID CPU PRI NI VSZ RSS WCHAN STAT TT TIME COMMAND 1004 2998 978 0 10 0 612 220 wait I+ p3 0:00.00 sh -c ec '/usr/home/grog/mutt-mojave-978-3 The parent is PPID (978 in this case). This one isn't a zombie, but in your case you will find the parent of process 314 (in this case). It would be interesting to see what the process is.

I'm trying to install a cgi web-based calendar called prospector.

Eventually I got everything installed but whenever I try and run it I get the following error every time (as reported in apache's error log): [Thu Mar 30 22:30:06 2000] [notice] Apache/1.3.12 (FreeBSD) mod_perl/1.21 PHP/3.0.15 configured -- resuming normal operations [Thu Mar 30 22:30:24 2000] [error] Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd/auto/DBI/DBI.so' for module DBI: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd/auto/DBI/DBI.so: Undefined symbol "PL_dowarn" at /usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/DynaLoader.pm line 169. at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd/DBI.pm line 158 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd/DBI.pm line 158.

I've been grepping through archives of the mod_perl mailing list, and discovered that this is a FAQ answered in their documentation, which simply explains it's due to a binary incompatibility and the solution is to recompile out of date modules. Well, I've been recompiling everything in site and nothing's worked. I'm completely stumped. Anyone who's a mod_perl expert who can talk me through this would earn my immediate adulation!

Your immediate problem, then, is how to prevent SQL saturation. This is most easily accomplished in the short term by limiting the number of Apache client connections to some small number that SQL _can_ handle. Once you have your server back off its knees, you can start worrying about proxies and SQL fine-tuning. But first things first. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

A free *what* CD? AOL sends me free CDs in the mail all the time. If you are asking about getting a FreeBSD installation CD set for free, I don't think there are any people out there just making them up and passing them out for nothing. If you want to install FreeBSD for free, you can download the files from the Internet and install off of your hard drive. You can even install directly off the Internet over your modem, but it takes awhile. If you have a CD writer, you can also download a CD image to burn your own CD. Write back and let us know more specifically what you're asking for and we can help more. -- Derrick Baumer - Black Duck Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 5:30:52 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from icebox.venux.net (icebox.venux.net [216.120.166.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 26F6237BCBC for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 05:30:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mitch@venux.net) Received: from servbox.venux.net (matrix.venux.net [216.120.166.5]) by icebox.venux.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id C8AC526209 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 08:34:01 -0500 (EST) Received: from doot (doot.venux.net [10.0.0.65]) by servbox.venux.net (Postfix) with SMTP id 4F9602BD82 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 08:30:40 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <009701bf9a4c$929e40a0$4100000a@venux.net> From: "Mitch Vincent" To: References: <38E2C55B.92847D1A@mail.com> Subject: Re: freebsd Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 08:33:45 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Download the ISO and burn it?

Well, the problem was asymetrical routing on the WIRED side. There were actually *TWO* machines acting in the "RTR" role below, one of which was acting JUST FINE, and the other that was being stubborn. I was, of-course, looking at the one that was JUST FINE and all of the problems went away when I fixed the default route on the WIRED machines.

The term "vty" means "virtual terminal". When your FreeBSD box boots up (assuming you don't automatically launch X), you'll see something like: FreeBSD (hostname) (ttyv0) login: What's on your screen is a virtual terminal connected to /dev/ttyv0. If you press Alt-F2, you'll see the virtual terminal connected to /dev/ttyv1. Usually, the virtual terminal connected to /dev/ttyv0 is the console. The stock /etc/syslog.conf configures syslogd(8) to send certain (usually) important messages to the console. I'd recommend that you leave this alone. Instead, play around on virtual terminals other than ttyv0, by switching to them with Alt-F2, Alt-F3 etc. > another question, how do I change group so I don't get > > "su : you are not in the correct group to su root." The FreeBSD su(1) utility insists that users belong to group wheel before it allows them to attempt to change user identity to that of the super-user (i.e. root). You need to add your non-priveledged user to group wheel. As root, edit the file /etc/group and append your user name to the line that begins with "wheel:". You should separate your user name from the last one on the line with a comma, e.g. wheel:*:0:root,sheldonh The format of the /etc/group file is described in the group(5) manual page. Ciao, Sheldon.

The message "tun0 does not exist" is very different from the message "tun0: device not configured". The former indicates that the /dev/tun0 device node does not exist and needs to be created with the MAKEDEV script. The latter indicates that the node exists but that the running kernel was not copiled with "psuedo-device tun". Ciao, Sheldon.

Well, that's if you're using old versions of FreeBSD. ;-) In FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE, there's the hw.atamodes sysctl, described in the ata(4) manual page. Ciao, Sheldon.

Use top or 'ps -ax' to list > processes. Actually, most deamons leave a "pid file" in /var/run to assist you with this. In the case of syslogd, you can usually do this: kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid` Note that it's syslod.pid and _not_ syslogd.pid. FreeBSD also has a killall(1) utility which kills (possibly multiple) processes by name. You could do this: killall -HUP syslogd However, killall(1) does not exist on all platforms and this "lazy" way of doing things can cause some serious problems if you happen to catch forking daemons at the wrong moment.

The compiler flags officially supported within the project are: CFLAGS='-O -pipe' COPTFLAGS='-O -pipe' More aggressive optimizations may be possible, but you're on your own trying to get support later if something goes wrong, whether or not it's related to the optimizations. :-) > Should I keep these flags set all the time, so that all "make"s can be > done with the options, or are they just necessary when doing a make > world?

In terms of CVS revision is a version of a certain file within the repository, and rarely has anything to do with versions of the product. Tags are used for this to indicate which revisions each file constitute some version of the product (release, snap or just any point in time during development). FreeBSD developers tag each release with RELENG_4_RELEASE_4_0 and so on. Sticky tags are used for branching (e.g. RELENG_3, RELENG_4). 'uname -a' will tell you about your system, which is, I guess, what you really need. -- Sincerely etc. Valery Zamarayev http://www.sea.com.ua To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 6:16: 6 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gateway.vsl.cua.edu (mail.vsl.cua.edu [136.242.188.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 894CA37BBDA for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 06:16:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from julianz@vsl.cua.edu) Received: from localhost (julianz@localhost) by gateway.vsl.cua.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA31727; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 14:18:55 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from julianz@vsl.cua.edu) Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 14:18:55 -0500 (EST) From: Julian Zottl To: cjclark@home.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Netmask problems...

Hey Crist :) Didn't want to e-mail you right out :) This is actually for a different project (not the lab), so that is why I had to ask. Reading the man pages for bridging, I see I need to set net.link.ether.bridge and net.link.ether.bridge_ipfw to 1, correct? So I just put these into my rc.conf and compile a new kernel with "options BRIDGE" and all is well?

Thanks for your quick and helpful response. > I'm pleased it worked for you. Maybe you (or somebody else) wants to know why it is interuptdriven by default. It's because the installation can be done via a parallel port connection and than you need the interuptdriven port. So the GENERIC kernel is compiled that way. That other OS you mention can't install via the parallel port, so the problem does not occur there. BTW: It would be nice if the port would switch automaticaly when you open the lpt device or the plip device.

Where to read some general advices on the optimization > of math perfomance (under FreeBSD)? :) There are a few generic pentium optimisation pages on the network. These may or may not be relevant to P6 based machines. Up to a certain level of performance, and for many code structures, memory system behaviour, and therefore data layout and access will dominate the application performance. You're therefore best served by getting things right, and studying locality of reference, rather than compiler optimisations. Compiler optimisations (and even assembly language tweaking) can come last, after some thorough profiling. (Yes, FreeBSD supports profiling.) -- Andrew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 6:34:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from darkstar.qx.net (darkstar.qx.net [208.235.88.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 575A737B6FB for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 06:34:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jfreeze@qx.net) Received: from mail2.qx.net (mail.qx.net [208.235.88.233]) by darkstar.qx.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA11737 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 09:34:50 -0500 From: jfreeze@qx.net Received: from mail.qx.net ([208.235.88.43]) by mail2.qx.net (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with SMTP id AAA4AFE; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 09:33:17 -0500 To: Christoph Sold Cc: jim@freeze.org, questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Re: FBSD + KDE + Netscape == STABLE??

My system died again last night. And, after performing several fsck operations within the last several days, I think my system is thoroughly corrupted, so I started a new install this morning after wiping the hard drive. Your suggestion of the bad RAM may very well be the case. Is there a way to tell for sure? Also, let me fill you in on the hardware details and a few of my mistakes. Then, maybe you can make a better guess. (These are from memory, since I am sending this from work) CPU: 333MHz K6-2 MotherBoard: AOpen - refurb (yeah, I know. But I figured a mb would either work or not) RAM - 64MB - don't know the clock speed. I asked the salesman if it was commodity (low) grade. He assured me that it wasn't. It cost ~$60.00. For him to make a profit, I'm thinking that it would have to be commodity grade. HardDrive - New 10.2GB Western Digital CDROM - New 40x - don't know the brand VideoCard: 8MB PA50V Aopen 2X AGP Kernel - I modifed one line of the GENERIC kernel to support a sound card. device pcm0 I believe it was. Other than the memory, I would think all the above should be ok. Also, xfree86 does not fully support the SiS6326 chipset on my video card, so I had to upgrade to 3.3.6. I think that what I downloaded from their ftp site was actually 3.3.6-current. As I understand it now, assuming xfree86 is similar to freebsd, I don't want the current version if stability is a problem. The crash I had last night was an xfree86 crash. All previous crashes were total lockups and reboots of the system. So, maybe I have been suffering from two problems: flakey memory and an unstable xfree86. For the new install, I am making sure to get xfree86 ver 3.3.6 and not the current. I hope this helps. My 2 main questions are, do I have to modify the kernel for the K6 cpu, and how would I go about verifying flakey ram?

The LYNX port is marked ``forbidden'' because of its vulnerability to buffer overflow exploits; we have seen the security advisory, and the port's make file refuses to build. Why, then, is lynx still available for manual downloading from the ports collection? Or, more to the point, if it is still available for manual downloading, why disable the port's makefile mechanism at all? It seems to me that the better course would be to allow those who wish to go ahead and install it and take their chances. No, w3m isn't an alternative. It may be a great browser someday, but not yet.

In vinum(8) it says that I can create a mirrored volume with two striped plexes, but that would only give me resilience against disk failure, so what I was thinking of was something like this: Chassis disks controller A 0 1 3 4 6 7 9 a x I B 0 2 3 5 6 8 9 b x II C 1 2 4 5 7 8 a b x III - where each number, 0-b (x being spare disks), represents a small mirror of 2 disks, and then all mirrors should be striped together to form one volume. With the above setup I believe I will have resilience against all "single-unit failures" - be it disk, chassis or controller, but I dont see any way to configure this with vinum.

Actually, you want an interrupt-driven port in any case, but there are different ways of handling the interrupts for network versus printing use, and the default kernel is set up for networking (for the reasons described above). What you really want to do (the advice is somewhat version-dependent, but definitely applies to 3.x, and I *think* to 4.0 as well, although I can only check the former) is recompile the kernel to use "tty" instead of "net" in the ppc device description. Then you run your printer in interrupt mode, which should be a lot more efficient than polled mode. Some hardware won't support interrupt mode anyway, but you want to use it if you can. > BTW: It would be nice if the port would switch automaticaly when you open > the lpt device or the plip device. Yes, that would be nice. Got diffs? Be well.

I then try to upload a 190 kb file and it keeps telling > me that I have exceeded my disk quota and does not try to upload the file. The quota system counts disk BLOCKS (actually file fragments). The number of bytes in a block is determined by how you made your filesytem. To determine this use the command disklabel(8): # disklabel -r da0 # or wd0 for IDE look for the partition that the quota system is mounted upon and see what is the file fragment size: ... # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] ... e: 1606500 1686825 4.2BSD 1024 8192 16 # (Cyl. 105 - 204) ^^^^ I will assume 1K/per block from here out... sounds like you set things correctly, though I would agrue that 2048 (K) blocks is 2MB. it is possible that this user has files in other subdirectories in this partition. First use the program quota(1): # quota -v USER to see how many blocks the quota facility believes this person is using. ("repquota -a" is easier, if you are doing this for several people). From your description, he must already be using at least 1810 (K) blocks. then do a find(1) to see if this user is really using that many files: # find /web -user USER -exec ls -ls | awk '{a = a + $1} END {print a}' this may give a slightly higher number is there are directories own by USER that contain files of other people, but this is a ball park estimation of the true USER file count. If this account is not using as many blocks as the quota system states, then the quota database has been corrupted and you need to recalculate the usage by re-running quotacheck. playing the odds, I would bet that this USER does in fact have other files in this partition and the quota facility is working correctly. --mark tinguely.

Run X-Util32 in Xwin32 and check out the help for Utilities Xhost and Xauth. Ignore Xauth until you get the basics working with Xhost. [I've never used Xauth so my advice to ignore it may be misguided.] On your bsd box both "man xhost" and "man xauth" are available, although I only mention this because they may give you more insight and not because you need to run these on the bsd box. You need these on the machine doing the DISPLAYing. With xhost you indicate by IP address who is allowed to connect. I am pretty sure that by getting "Client is not authorized to connect to Server" that it is not the firewall that is bouncing you but it is the X server on the winbox itself. That is good since it means that Xhost under Xutil32 is likely to help you. However, if I am wrong (meaning it is the firewall itself that is preventing the X connection) then you need to make sure that tcp port 6000 is open on the firewall. >> Yes, it is my router.

Using FBSD on a laptop still implies some homework and searches (less and less that's right, thanks to mobile and nomad developpers) So search the archives, try and report problems if you encounter any.

The reason for using the "exec" command, if you're running xdm from a script, is that it causes the invoked process (xdm, in this case) to *replace* the shell process that calls it, so you're not left with an unnecessary shell process still running in the background. As for the best, most surefire way to kill xdm, "killall xdm" should be the ticket. :-) -- Conrad Sabatier http://members.home.net/conrads/ ICQ# 1147270 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 10: 2:43 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from web1403.mail.yahoo.com (web1403.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.23.167]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 8905937B664 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:02:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fujiezhang@yahoo.com) Received: (qmail 10121 invoked by uid 60001); 30 Mar 2000 18:02:23 -0000 Message-ID: <20000330180223.10120.qmail@web1403.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [209.47.186.101] by web1403.mail.yahoo.com; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:02:23 PST Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:02:23 -0800 (PST) From: fujie zhang Subject: X on i810 based box?

Not sure why I switched to the xdm stuff; it may have been because xdm was able to launch you directly into X via its login screen. Anyhow, I'll play around and see what makes sense. For the time being I may have to take the long way around and logout (to root) and start back up as ~test. It would be nice (ideal) if I could type and switch accounts from ~kline to ~test. Have my familiar ctwm on my account and other environments on others.

I use: CFLAGS= -02 -pipe -m486 COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe Ths first adds a little more optimization for ordinary builds, such as the ports collection. The second is the recommended setting for the kernel. There are a few other useful settings besides: # Avoid compiling profiled libraries NOPROFILE= true The average user has no use for these anyway, and you can save a little time and disk space by not compiling them when doing a "make world". If you've installed the Lesstif port: HAVE_MOTIF= yes If you're a USA resident (certain ports check the setting of this variable): USA_RESIDENT=YES Another setting I find very useful is: FORCE_PKG_REGISTER= YES This will force a port to install and register itself when you do a "make install", even if it's already installed. Last but not least, if you use cvsup to update your sources and/or ports collection: SUP_UPDATE= yes # SUP= /usr/local/bin/cvsup SUPFLAGS= -g -L 2 SUPFILE= ${STABLESUPFILE} CURRENTSUPFILE= /root/current-supfile STABLESUPFILE= /root/stable-supfile DOCSUPFILE= /root/doc-supfile PORTSSUPFILE= /root/ports-supfile I've defined a few extra variables here (CURRENT..., STABLE..., DOC..., PORTS...). THE DOC and PORTS supfiles enable you to go to either /usr/doc or /usr/ports and do a "make update" to cvsup the latest changes. CURRENT and STABLE are just some aliases I created; the name that's actually used is, of course, just plain old SUPFILE. This, like DOC and PORTS, enables you to go to /usr/src and do "make update". Hope this helps. -- Conrad Sabatier http://members.home.net/conrads/ ICQ# 1147270 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 10:29:41 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wcug.wwu.edu (sloth.wcug.wwu.edu [140.160.164.200]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id C737D37B780 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:29:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rshannon@wcug.wwu.edu) Received: (qmail 21826 invoked by uid 1146); 30 Mar 2000 18:29:16 -0000 Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:29:16 -0800 (PST) From: Ryan Shannon X-Sender: rshannon@sloth To: Cliff Rowley Cc: Derrick Baumer , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: tun0 in 4.0 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 Thanks for your responses. I recompiled the kernel without the 1 in the tun line and it worked just fine. That 1 screws up all kinds of stuff. :) The ppp handbook section is very misleading. It says that it is updated, but the directions still explicitly state to compile the kernel with pseudo-device tun 1 This is leftover from the 3.4 handbook, in which the directions worked excellently. I would be more than happy to update that section if that would be helpful. Thanks for your help.

I've done my share of FreeBSD installs over the last several years :-) and here's the strategy I've come up with: 1) The default for / is, I find, a bit on the low side. I usually shoot for at least 64 MB (128 MB is even better). This allows for several custom kernels to reside on /, if you're into customizing and fine-tuning your kernel from time to time, as well as providing more space for /tmp, if you'd rather not symlink /tmp to some other partition. 2) Unless you're planning on running INN or doing more than the usual amount of logging, or something else that makes heavy use of /var, 128 MB for /var shuld be more than enough. You might even get by with just 64 MB for /var, but I feel more comfortable with a little more breathing room than that. :-) 3) Swap space should be at least double your RAM, 3x or 4x RAM is even better. 3) The main point of all of this is to allow as much space as possible for /usr, where most stuff will be installed. So, create /, /var, and swap first, then allocate whatever's left to /usr. Hope this helps. -- Conrad Sabatier http://members.home.net/conrads/ ICQ# 1147270 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 10:38:48 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from exchange2.activevoice.com (sea-gateway1.activevoice.com [198.207.218.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E150C37BA4B for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:38:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from TStone@activevoice.com) Received: by exchange2.activevoice.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) id ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:37:39 -0800 Message-ID: <61B452CEA1F9D11195A600A024C65C6902902523@exchange2.activevoice.com> From: Todd Stone To: "'questions@FreeBSD.org'" Subject: Question about FreeBSD on a laptop Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 10:37:36 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I am looking at buying a laptop.

Although kde and kdevelop appear to work fine on my upgraded machine, whenever I try to compile a kde app, it crashes on instantiation of the KApplication object. This suggests to me there is a library conflict somewhere - but what's causing it? I should be able to upgrade in this way, surely? The only solution I can see is going back to the standard 3.4 release.

I can think of several options:- a) go to the trouble of setting up sudo so that those users are given root perms for the mtools as they need them; b) create a group for users authorised for floppy access, and chgrp the floppy devices to that group with rw access; c) create a group and chmod the devices as for a), but setgid the mtools progs instead of adding users to the group (not recommended!); d) setuid root the mtools progs (definitely not recommended!). I would favour either a) or b) depending on circumstances and the cluefulness of the users concerned.

I have a 64M root partition that was at one time about 70% full, but then I removed a number of old kernels that I hadn't used in some time. (Once the system is "good", you don't usually need ten extra "just in case" kernels). Now it's about 56% full. /var is 402M, but there's a specific reason for that. Running a custom install of the postgreSQL database server, it's data files are stored in /var. I also have my Apache set to use /var/html as it's document root. The idea was to *try* to get /usr mountable read-only and still be able to modify the dynamic content of the system. If you're going to use a large database that uses /var, make /var at least as large as the data sets you intend to use. I happened to have a 402M hard drive handy and just committed the whole thing for it. It's currently about 43% full, but growing slowly. With 64M RAM, I have 128M swap, using the old twice-your-memory rule. I don't think I'd go larger than that because a) The things I do don't use up that much memory, and b) If I was using all 64M RAM *and* 128M swap, more swap wouldn't help because the system would be on its knees swapping like mad anyway. /home, if you make it separate (makes re-installs easier), really depends on what your users use. I have 402M for home, only because I had two of those hard drives I mentioned earlier. Of course, /usr is usually "everything else", and the only time it wouldn't be is if you had a highly specific plan for your system with storage requirements pretty well spelled out. Some people advocate for /usr being a read-only system, in which case it would only have to be a little larger than what is required for a basic install, /usr/local being used for add-ons. Them's my thoughts.

For example, if I want to send mail mail out, I would type 'sendmail -q', then wait for 30 seconds or so while it did its job, then it'd finish and I'd have my prompt back so I could continue working. (Run-on sentence from hell there, eh?) Instead, I can type 'sendmail -q &' and it will immediately give my control back to do other things while it runs in the background. > also, how would you stop a background task that has gone beserk? Then, if I suddenly decided I wanted to stop sendmail from finishing its job, I would type 'fg'. That will bring the program back to the foreground so I could stop it. If you have multiple jobs in the background, typing 'fg' will just bring the last one up. To bring a specific one up, you need to type 'fc -l', which will list all of the background processes you have running. The first column is the background job number. If I wanted to bring job 3 up, I would type 'fg 3'.

I think that's an -ism from a different os.... It is, however, useful to have a separate slice, if you have one available, for /usr/local or /usr/home or whatever you think you might need. If you reinstall, the slice (dos partition) is destroyed. If you have a separate /usr/local, including /usr/local/home, you can keep your home directories and installed software and whatever else you choose to stash there and reinstall /, /var, /usr. With this scheme /usr needs to have space for /usr/src and /usr/obj (maybe 200+ megabytes each) if you want to rebuilt the system from source; you might want room for /usr/ports there too, which needs space for at least the distfiles it's currently working with. That might be another 150 megs or so, assuming you have somewhere else to stash distfiles you want to keep.

If this is true, the only other question I have is, what does your mail file look like? When you don't receive a message in RMAIL, cat /var/mail/yourusername and determine if the message is actually there. If it is, it's a problem with RMAIL. If it isn't, it may be a sendmail problem (or, perhaps by some header rewrite error, a fetchmail problem, but you say maillog shows delivery). I haven't used fetchmail, but another (less likely) alternative is you have encountered an off-by-one bug in fetchmail, where you really don't have five messages, only 4, and whatever status it reports is incorrect. If you want the whole picture, configure fetchmail to leave mail on the server for you. Then, if and when this happens again, log onto your ISPs POP3 server (with telnet on port 110, for best results) and do a STAT on your mbox to see how many messages are there. RETR any messages you think fetchmail may have missed. -- Ryan Thompson Systems Administrator, Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 14: 0:27 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp11.bellglobal.com (smtp11.bellglobal.com [204.101.251.53]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C23A837C00C for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 14:00:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from transmogrify@sympatico.ca) Received: from sympatico.ca (ppp8839.on.bellglobal.com [207.236.126.23]) by smtp11.bellglobal.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id RAA00671 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 17:05:55 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <38E3CE20.A64577D4@sympatico.ca> Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 16:58:56 -0500 From: "[ -dp- ]" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: hd issue.

I've set up a CVSup server from the ports tree, which was almost too easy, and its working fine, but I'd now like to compile the binaries/distributions so we can install from this same server via FTP. Are there any tools to do this and get it into the correct layout/directory structures etc? I'm concerned mainly with the RELENG3_3 release. Apologies if this isn't the right forum, and if any responses could be sent to my private address it'd be appreciated because I'm not on the list.

I have KDE and kdevelop on both 3.4-Stable and 4.0-Stable. Everything was built using the port sources. I add them on one machine and ftp the distfiles to the other. You have a number of files such as kdelibes, docs, and etc. that are needed. I also think you need something like lesstif installed and then add "HAVE_MOTIF=YES" in /etc/make.conf. The only problem I am aware of is with the CDROM player and cddb. The cddb people changed their URL from www.cddb.com to cddb.cddb.com. Once you change that and chose update, cddb will show what audio cdrom you are playing. They run just fine.

Contrast this with, say, SuSE that will install a demo of Applixware as part of the default install or Solaris that doesn't include a complier. What I would like to do is determine what goes into a base install (no ports) of FreeBSD and mimic that on other systems. Short of "find /usr/src", does anybody have any ideas how I could automatically generate a list of applications that are part of the base install? Also, how is it decided what goes in and what doesn't? I tried searching the mailing lists, etc. but I am at a loss as to what terms to use in the search. -- markw@horvitznewspapers.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 16:50:20 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.chat.ru (gnu.chat.ru [212.24.32.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0B49E37B8AA for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 16:50:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mpnet@chat.ru) Received: from ts9-a54.dial.sovam.com ([195.239.0.182]) by mail.chat.ru with esmtp (Exim 3.10 #9) id 12apde-000BpI-00 for questions@FreeBSD.org; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 04:50:14 +0400 Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2000 04:50:12 +0400 From: Michael Petunin X-Mailer: The Bat!

Some of the cgi's I've seen are lucky if you can run them once per second, it really depends on the work that the CGI does, and how well it's been coded along with the exec model (fork+exec/fastcgi/module).

Set the sysctl net.inet.tcp.always_keepalive to 1 to enable keepalives. Once enabled, net.inet.tcp.keepidle gives the number of seconds before the first keepalive packet. net.inet.tcp.keepintvl gives the number of seconds between additional keepalive packets. If 8 keepalive packets are sent with no response, the connection is dropped. It sounds like you probaby want to do something like: sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.always_keepalive=1 sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.keepidle=150 sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.keepintvl=20 I don't think you can use sysctl to set the number of keepalive packets to wait for before terminating the connection. You can turn on keepalive on a per-socket basis using setsockopt(). It's not obvious to me if you can adjust the other values the same way, though I would assume that the same sysctl values are used.

NEVER EVER EVER put a startup command in rc.conf or rc! rc.conf gets read into multiple startup scripts at boot time and at certain intervals by periodic scripts and breaking /etc/rc is really good way to hose your machine if you don't know what you're doing. use /etc/rc.local or /usr/local/etc/rc.d/(myscript).sh to start things up. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 17:32:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from avocet.prod.itd.earthlink.net (avocet.prod.itd.earthlink.net [207.217.121.50]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 63E3837B70C for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 17:32:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mikiefer@earthlink.net) Received: from earthlink.net (dialup-63.208.45.65.StLouis1.Level3.net [63.208.45.65] (may be forged)) by avocet.prod.itd.earthlink.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA09483 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 17:32:46 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <38E40318.94EA6B87@earthlink.net> Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 19:44:56 -0600 From: Mike Kiefer X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 4.0-20000307-CURRENT i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: NFS Client Problem Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------FF1CE3270BB9ACDC3C1DFE6C" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------FF1CE3270BB9ACDC3C1DFE6C Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I have 2 RedHat 6.1 boxes that are running NFSD.

ICQ doesn't have specific port ranges it uses. It's fairly random. You have 3 options as I see it: 1. Live with the way ICQ performs behind nat (yuck). 2. Install a SOCKS5 proxy (semi-yuck, but it works better). 3. Reserve a small range of ports for each machine running icq. Then configure ICQ to be behind a firewall and to only use those port ranges. That's actually what the example below is used for. I've done all three. I've currently using 2 out of necessity (isp issue, don't ask) but when I was able to use option 3 it worked the best. Hope this helps. -Chris -----Original Message----- From: Sarton O'Brien [mailto:roguetr@patho.gen.nz] Sent: Thursday, March 30, 2000 2:02 AM To: C J Michaels Cc: Dennis Jun; freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ppp -nat port redirection C J Michaels wrote: > > Apparently you didn't read the original question.

After making use of tcpdump I figured out it was working correctly, the person calling me was using my dns name which (thanks workmate who has access to such configurations) had a different foward and reverse, so it was actually a dns problem.

After watching tcpdump for a WHILE, I realised I would be there forever working out the port ranges used for file tranfers and chat. You wouldn't happen to know ICQs port ranges for these?

Part of my definition of mission critical means that I must take into account any and all places where the box might fail and account for that possible point of failure. The box has already been built up by one of my coworkers. The box has two SCSI equally sized hard disks installed in it, as well as a controller that can do hardware level RAID 1 (mirroring, I believe). Here is the information from dmesg about our DPT controller: dpt0: rev 0x02 int a irq 7 on pci0.16.0 dpt0: DPT PM3224A FW Rev. 07G0, 1 channel, 64 CCBs Information about the drives: da0 at dpt0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 4340MB (8888923 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 553C) da1 at dpt0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 da1: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da1: Tagged Queueing Enabled da1: 4340MB (8888412 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 553C) Here is where things get sticky: My coworker did not enable hardware level RAID 1 BEFORE the install. The configuration utility for DPT (it's a DOS based program), doesn't seem to allow for a new RAID device to be created and then syncing all of the data from the first drive onto the second drive. It only has an option to wipe the current contents of the drives and create a new RAID device that can be accesses from an OS that is to be freshly installed. So now I am faced with a problem: I some how need to get some sort of disk redundancy going on this machine. When I say redundancy, I mean the whole disk, including the kernel. At this point it makes no difference if the redundancy is performed via software or with hardware. One big problem with vinum is that it seems to load itself after the kernel has booted, which is a big problem. The solutions to this problem with vinum do not seem to be very clean, easy, or safe to implement. So I am now confused and asking you all, questions@freebsd.org, for advice, based on the given hardware, on what to do to get disk redundancy on this machine.

I have one that does the same thing on an old P5 to, wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): wd0: 515MB (1056384 sectors), 1048 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S wdc0: unit 1 (atapi): , removable, dma, iordis atapi0.1: invalid command phase, ireason=0x0, status=50, error=0 I thought this might be why the 4.0 kernel would panic when loading onto this machine, but it did it even when the CDROM was disconnected. Now I think it might be the IDE controller itself, and I wonder if IDE controller is to blame for this ATAPI error too. You would not happen to know what type of IDE controller you have? -- Crist J.

But you also want a single volume, and you want to make it out of volumes you first thought of. Why do you want to want to do that? The only real issue you have here is that you need to ensure that the failure of any one component doesn't cause an overlapping hole in both plexes. You should be able to do this by taking the first chassis and the first half of the second chassis for the first plex, and the second half of the second chassis and the third chassis for the second plex. Then you have: - failure of first controller or chassis: the first plex loses the first two thirds of the address space. The second plex covers the entire address space, so there's no failure. - failure of third controller or chassis: the second plex loses the last two thirds of the address space. The first plex covers the entire address space, so there's no failure. - failure of the second controller: first plex loses last third of the address space. The second plex losts the first third of the address space. We still have complete coverage, since the losses don't overlap.

I didn't specifically want to call the first instance "volume", but yes, I wanted one volume striped across 12 fully resilient "entities" because I thought that was the only way to achieve the best of both worlds given the hardware at hand. > The only real issue you have here is that you need to ensure that the > failure of any one component doesn't cause an overlapping hole in both > plexes.

This is what I was missing - that vinum is intelligent enough (well, of course) to survive loosing subdisks in both plexes as long as the full address space can be found *anywhere* on the remaining subdisks. In my case this will require that the first part of the first plex is mirrored in the first part of the second plex, but that can be controlled by the layout in the configurationfile. My understanding of: "When laying out a mirrored volume, it is important to ensure that the subdisks of each plex are on different drives, so that a drive failure will not take down both plexes." was that vinum wouldn't survive losing subdisks in both plexes. Now I take it that the above only refers to situations where a drive failure takes down 2 or more subdisks containing the same address space from each plex. > Greg Thanks. > -- > When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients. > For more information, see http://www.lemis.com/questions.html > Finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key > See complete headers for address and phone numbers /Niels Chr. -- Niels Christian Bank-Pedersen, NCB1-RIPE.

I've got 4.0-RELEASE installed and so far I'm getting along ok. FreeBSD is on ad0s1 and my Linux root partition is on /dev/hdb1 (ad1s1 in FreeBSD?) in Linux. I installed lilo to /dev/hdb1. When I boot I get F1 and F5 and they both boot FreeBSD. To get back to Linux I have to boot from a boot floppy and change lilo to write to /dev/hda1. Let me know if you have any ideas or whether you need addtional info.

Maybe I'm missing something really obvious, but is there some reason 'ls -R /' won't work for you? Or maybe 'ls -R1 /' for a slightly more usable output.

Well, first, installing bash or bash2 would probably be a good idea since it is not part of the base FreeBSD distribution. There are bash ports, /usr/ports/shells/bash and /usr/ports/shells/bash2, as well as precompiled packages. Once you install bash, % man chsh Will allow a mortal user to change his shell. The root user can change anyone and everyone's shell with a quick, % man vipw And finally, if you want to make /usr/local/bin/bash the default for users added with the adduser(8) simply follow the prompts within adduser to put it in as teh default. -- Crist J.

I don't think there is much configuring to be done to the bootstrapper in sysinstall. IIRC, the best you can do is put the same one on again. -- Crist J.

The purpose here was that once an option was chosen from a boot menu I didn't want to be prompted again.This post is for the archive. My disks are as follows: spindle 0: ptn 1: FAT drive C:, NTLDR, BOOT.INI. : ptn 2: NTFS spindle 1: ptn 1: FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE, da1s1a, da1s1b : ptn 2: NTFS When I installed FreeBSD I chose not to alter the MBR. My BOOT.INI for bsd reads: C:\BOOTSECT.BSD="FreeBSD 3.2" I created BOOTSECT.BSD thus: * ensure you have a backup of MBR and PBS from both disks. I used the NTRESKIT DISKSAVE when booted from a DOS floppy. Good idea if you have FAT/NTFS to have a DOS boot floppy with DISKSAVE, NTFSDOS etc, and a copy of all the various boot sectors. * boot into FreeBSD by whatever means (I installed OSBS temporarily. I would have kept OSBS except it doesn't show all the OS choices I have.) * as root, boot0cfg -v -B -d 0x81 -o noupdate,setdrv -f /tmp/BOOTSECT.BSD -t 1 da1 I ran this twice to get a copy of the new MBR1 into /tmp/BOOTSECT.BSD * copy /tmp/BOOTSECT.BSD to C:\BOOTSECT.BSD by whatever means. * reboot. If you now choose "FreeBSD 3.2" from the NT boot menu, you should briefly see the FreeBSD boot manager, then it should boot FreeBSD. The problems I had were: 1. With booteasy installed on both spindles using BOOTINST, the MBR0 would be corrupted when booteasy saved the selection made during the boot process. So I was able to boot FreeBSD, but then I'd lose MBR0. 2. Using boot0 out-of-the-box got me nowhere as MBR1 wasn't prepared. If I installed booteasy onto MBR1 using /stand/sysinstall then I'd boot FreeBSD but corrupt MBR0. 3. When I installed boot0 with boot0cfg onto spindle 1 without noupdate, once again, MBR0 would be corrupted when the selection was made during the boot process. 4. When I installed boot0 with boot0cfg onto spindle1 without setdrv, I'd get 2 boot manager menus. The first prompted me with F1 FreeBSD and F5 Drive1, where F1 loaded NTLDR, and F5 prompting with F1 FreeBSD and F5 Drive0, where finally F1 would boot FreeBSD. regards, taras -- "FreeBSD - the power to serve."

I am a web programmer trying desperately to get away from my NT environment, and I have therefore tried to get VMware running on FreeBSD4.0-RELEASE (since I have to check how my webpages look and function in Internet Explorer and Netscape on WinDOH$). However, I can't make the configuration wizard understand where 'netscape' and 'grep' is located...simply by not being able to choose (in the Motif file chooser) "/usr/local/" or "/usr/bin/" where they are located. No problem in finding them in bash (or sh, for that matter). The problem could very well be that my license is for v1.0, and I am running the version offered in the ports collection. Any suggestions, anyone? Should I get a 'proper' license first, before bothering y'all again? /Fredrik in Stockholm, Sweden fredrik.carlen@futurniture.se To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Mar 30 23:31:13 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailout04.sul.t-online.de (mailout04.sul.t-online.de [194.25.134.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BD86437B964 for ; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 23:31:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Meerwaldt@t-online.de) Received: from fwd06.sul.t-online.de by mailout04.sul.t-online.de with smtp id 12avtZ-0007hU-08; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 09:31:05 +0200 Received: from server.wes.mee.com (320044045192-0001@[62.156.3.46]) by fwd06.sul.t-online.de with esmtp id 12avtN-131n50C; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 09:30:53 +0200 Received: from server.wes.mee.com (server.wes.mee.com [192.168.1.1]) by server.wes.mee.com (8.9.3/FreeBSD V4.0) with ESMTP id IAA00951; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 08:17:54 +0200 (CEST) Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2000 08:17:54 +0200 (CEST) From: Meerwaldt@t-online.de (Frederik Meerwaldt) To: James Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: REAL stupid question In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Sender: 320044045192-0001@t-dialin.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! > I would like to know where to put a command that will start, say.....Apache > on boot.

I ran into a similar problem on a 3.x box, turned out I had to enable LBA for that particular drive (40GB ext2fs partition), however I also read that you'll get this problem if sparse superblocks are not enabled on the ext2fs partition giving BSD grief. I don't remember how to turn this flag on from Linux anymore however.

Since the intelligence of an OfficeJet resides in some MS-Windows software, I guess that a specific drive should be made to use the full functionality with a BSD machine. Has anyone ever written such a driver, and is it avaliable. It would be the next step towards abandoning Microsoft altogether.

If you mean that you lost a lot of space building cvsup from source with the ports mechanism, you can reclaim a lot of that space by 1) Removing the cvsup and modula distfiles from /usr/ports/distfiles . Modula is something required for building (but not running) cvsup. 2) Doing a ``make clean'' in /usr/ports/net/cvsup . Ciao, Sheldon.

When I attempted a clean install via CD of 4.0 Rel I am not able to get past the initial hardware config screen. As soon as it starts scanning the hardware it freezes after the line containing "pci0: 18.0 irq 10" So far I have swapped the PCI Matrox for a cheap 16 bit VGA card (then stops at "chip1: port 0x5000-0x500f at device 7.3 on pci0"), tried different RAM and even swapped the MB and CPU for a 233MMX combo with the same results. Re-installing 3.3 goes without a hitch and the 4.0 CD installs with no problem on my PII 400 so it's not a problem with the media. I'm baffled :-) Does 4.0 not like the old MMX chips or am I missing something. As always, any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's a pity you didn't mention the exact port or we might have been able to be more specific. Port's that are unbroken usually ahve the BROKEN line removed, not commented out. Most often, you'll see a commented out BROKEN when someone's manually edited the local Makefile to try fixing the port. Ciao, Sheldon.

That said here is my issue: I have recently done a 4.0-RELEASE install. When doing this install I select "ALL" for the distribution type. Next, FreeBSD asks if I want DES to which I select no. Next it asks if I am a USA Resident, I have tried both options here. Finally it asks if I want the ports tree. When the install completes the installation has _not_ installed OpenSSL or any of the crypto utilities. Fine, I screwed up by not explicitly selecting them. However, after a cvsup (including the crypto sources) and a make world, I still do not have the crypto utilities. The sources are in /usr/src/crypto (Do they need to be moved? And if so, where?) If I select the crypto distribution it will install correctly and I will have the utilities but I am worried about why it is not being updated by a make world. /etc/make.conf has no options related to this other than the kerberos options (not applicable here) and the USA_RESIDENT option which I have tried both ways.

Fsck should never be run on a mounted filesystem. The kernel will be really confused when the contents of the filesystem changes. Shutdown, reboot into single-user mode, and fsck them again, to make sure you haven't damaged anything.

I already explained this to you, if you want you can add commands to /etc/rc.local or /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh (or mysql.sh or whatever as long as it ends with .sh) rc.conf should only be used to set variables like: foo="bar" it shouldn't be used to run any commands because it is sourced by multiple startup and periodic scripts. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child, I keep it in a jar on my desk."

This is something that comes up a lot on these mailing lists and I'm still not sure it makes sense, considering there is no guarantee of support regardless of what one does with FreeBSD. It also seems that, since most of the officially supported procedures are documented in such places as the Handbook, isn't this list a great place to exchange ideas about those things which are not supported?

I can think of the old Star Office (not sure if they still do that or not), and others too. So all of a sudden you have a need for a 400-meg situation. If you haven't allocated a partition for /opt, then where does the 400 go? of course, /opt would be under /. And we now have only - what have I heard - 64MB, 80MB, whatever the other recommendations for / were, I don't remember. So you work the symlink magic. Is the point of my rambling that it sounds like everybody's situation is different? Maybe so. In the old days, I used to plan carefully the needs of the box I'm building, how many users, what will be the purpose of the box, etc. Now I'm older, and lazier. And I've learned that no matter how much I plan, I'm usually wrong. :) So I give swap a couple of hundred megs and put the rest under /. And I'm done with it. I use my firewalling to protect against /var/spool attacks. I haven't had the need to mount /usr in fancy ways for a long time. Can anyone point me a reason that I might run up against a mount problem these days? Why would I need to split off /usr anymore? I *do* like the idea of a separate /home or /var/backups or /usr/local/src/archive (or similar) for saving emergency stuff in case of a need for total reinstall, though. That's an attractive solution. Another cute scheme is to have a teeny partition for DOS that could be used for configuring legacy ethernet adapters, etc. Dave On Fri, 31 Mar 2000, James A Wilde wrote: > Useful analysis, thanks, Conrad.

The addresses you see in netstat and ifconfig are real. User ppp was working until about two weeks ago. I had an unexpected power interruption (I accidentally pulled the wrong plug out of a power strip). This was on a Friday after- noon and when I think back on it, I don't think ppp has worked since then, but I won't swear it happened then. Could a file or device have been corrupted? I'm wondering if somehow the IP requests are being routed not through tun0 but ed0. The blasted novell firewall only allows http requests through, thus my need to dial out.

Was Re: /etc/hosts.allow In-Reply-To: <20000328231657.A9744@walton.maths.tcd.ie> 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 received this error, too. In the course of investigating it, I found out a whole lot about FreeBSD. Some of my notes are reproduced here in the hopes that they might be useful to someone. I don't know if this is an appropriate forum, but if it's not no doubt someone will flame me :-) Sorry about the length of the message. There are three parts: first, a quick answer to Jeff's original question; second, a diagnosis of what's happening, and third, some recommendations for whoever feels they're responsible. The short answer to Jeff is that you did do something wrong: you can't use twist with portmap. So you can't let portmap "fall through" to the default rejection line in hosts.allow. You must use either ACCEPT or DENY, and as the comments in hosts.allow say (but not the example), you cannot use hostnames. I think this should be made clearer in the hosts.allow template, FWIW. The other piece of the puzzle is that this was almost certainly a port scan, although it could have been an attempted break-in -- in any case, it would have been unsuccessful. Finally, I think we can conclude that Jeff is not using portmap and should not be running the service. :-) (see below) Here's the diagnosis, in case anyone cares. Wietse Venema's wonderful tcp wrapper program and library are incredibly useful, and I don't mean this to be a criticism in any way. The tcp wrapper library (libwrap) provides an interface to the /etc/hosts.* configuration files, and this support is used in various programs, including portmap and sendmail (and probably others.) However, the tcp wrapper package was originally written to be used in a "single-fire" mode with inetd, and many of the extended options (enabled with the -DPROCESS_OPTIONS compile-time flag to the tcp wrappers package, which seems to be the default setting in FreeBSD, amongst others) are not going to work other than in this mode. The twist option cannot work other than in inetd mode. It causes the calling process to be replaced (through the execl(3) system call) with an configured shell process. If the calling process intended to hang around for a while to answer more requests, it's in for a surprise. To attempt to prevent this, the tcp wrappers library maintains a count of the number of times it has been called, and if it's been called more than once, it won't do the twist. (Call it square :-) ) This check will not be effective if the twist happens on the first call to the wrappers library after the process starts. This is unlikely but possible, unless the service is not being legitimately used. So if you run portmap but don't use it AND you take the portmap lines out of hosts.allow, leaving only the default ALL : ALL : twist line at the end, then when someone attempts to connect to portmap, it will call the wrapper library, the wrapper library will try the twist, and it will fail with the error message you saw (more on that later.) Having failed to twist, and having failed to execl(3), the library will call exit(3) and portmap will be no more. The reason the twist fails is that it attempts to dup2(3) the fd for the socket connection prior to the execl(3). However, programs like portmap which use the simplified wrapper library interface hosts_tcl(see hosts_access(3)) cannot inform the wrapper library of the fd of the socket connection (nor, probably, should they), and therefore the wrapper library will attempt to dup2(3) file descriptor -1. dup2(3) returns EBADF, and the error you received is generated. Oddly, the wrapper library will already have syslog(3)ged the twist attempt, which might have told you the IP number the connection came from, but you probably won't have seen that. That's because the default logging facility/level set by the default hosts.allow file is auth.info, and the default syslog.conf(5) file discards everything in auth under auth.notice. So, here are some suggestions. Accept, ignore, critique, whatever: 1. The default /etc/hosts.allow should make it clearer that you can't twist certain services, including portmap and sendmail. 2. Either the default /etc/syslog.conf should log auth.info somewhere, or the default /etc/hosts.allow should not downgrade the importance of twists, or some comment somewhere should point out that twists aren't logged. No doubt there were good reasons for these choices (although they strike me as curious) so I'd settle for the comment. 3. With respect to Wietse Venema, I think the protection against stupidity or ignorance in options.c could be improved a little bit. I would suggest pre-checking the value of fd before trying to use it, for example. This fairly small patch would at least produce meaningful error messages in this particular case (and would have saved portmap from having been terminated, although I don't suppose that that matters much.) 4. While I was cruising around trying to find the answer to all this stuff, I noticed that in portmap, hosts_ctl is called with empty strings for the client host name and user name arguments. In hosts_access(3), it states that these arguments should be set to the macro STRING_UNKNOWN if they are invalid. As far as I can see, the manpage is correct: if the argument is specified as "", the wrapper library will attempt to work it out if necessary. Since it's clear that you can't do a DNS lookup, much less an ident, in portmap, it would be better to specify STRING_UNKNOWN to flag the wrapper library to not bother trying to do the lookups. However, for the life of me, I can't see how tcpd.h is #included in pmap_check.c; I suppose it doesn't matter given c's laxity about function prototyping. STRING_UNKNOWN is, in fact "unknown".

Suppose you had PPPoE on a FreeBSD system and wanted to do NAT, can you get by with one NIC since with normal ethernet and Static IP's, you can just make the internal LAN IP as a alias of the interface and have the primary set to some bogus value and then PPPoE can change it?

This Bootmanager program should take care of the task, but when you install Windoze it will be kicked off and you have to reinstall BootEasy. How do you boot into FreeBSD now?

When I reboot it takes me to single user mode and complains that there are problems on the hard disk. Running fsck on /dev/wd0s1a (/) results in the following message: wd0s1a: hard error reading fsbn 1496 of 1408-1519 (wd0s1 bn 1496; cn 0 tn 23 sn 47 status 59 error 40) CANNOT READ: BLK 1408 Okay, I get the message, but, is there any way I can mark the block as bad so that fsck leaves it alone and get fsck to recheck the / partition as good? I assume I must then find which file is corrupted as a result of not having block 1496 and replace the file. I hope it doesn't come to a reformat of the disk and reinstall. If so, is there any way I can save some of the stuff on there. I have ssh, ssh2, bind, samba, etc and I'd rather not have to d/l it all again. I have no backup unit on this machine. I do have a couple of Windows NT machines on the network. Is it, for example, possible to reinstall in such a way that the tar files on /usr are left intact? Or is there another way I can save these tar files on my network? I have another FBSD machine on a nearby LAN but I don't know if I can get to it in single user mode.

Using the following map /defaults opts:=grpid,intr,nodev,rw,soft * host!=${key};type:=host;rhost:=${key};fs:=${autodir}/${rhost}; \ ost==${key};type:=link;fs:="/" using amd to mount "/net" Works fine, but amd blocks when i do "cd /net/deadhost" - takes about 30 secs to get a "No such file or directory". In this time _all_ requests to /net freeze. I've played a bit with timeouts, but nothing seemed to help. Looks like amd is using long time with many retries for trying to mount "deadhost" with nfsv2/udp. I didnt find any option to turn this of. Any ideas?

If you send in bug reports and mention explicitly that your settings are other than -O, we will probably ignore you, and might possibly mock you publicly. If you send in bug reports and do _not_ mention that your settings are other than -O, and it comes out later for whatever reason, many people will be angry at you, some will deride you publicly, and others will put you in their permanent kill files. If, on the other hand, you send in a bug report about something that doesn't work while being compiled -O, in all likelihood you will get a cooperative and friendly response. In other words, even if you want to experiment with other compiler settings (and I do this myself) you should try it first with the "supported" settings before asking anyone on the lists about it.

I guess > this should be set in these programs before any wrapper stuff is > called - I haven't checked to see if it is, but I'll have a look. Yeah, it does. I think you probably could get away with just setting it to 1... from the code, it looks like that would work. However, it does that all by itself. The variable starts at -1, and then it increments it every time it does a check. "Normally", it's called from inetd, so it's only called once and so resident never ascends beyond 0. If you're running some long-standing service which calls the wrapper lib more often, the variable gets incremented past 0 and the library knows that it's there to stay. Then it bans twists. However, this is not part of the public interface. So no-one is going to use that. If you look more closely at the code, you'll see that the request object has a fd member (oops, in c-speak, I mean there's an fd in the request struct. Well, you know what I mean, I hope). That's initialised to -1 when you create the request. Then you eventually get around to setting it if you use the full-bore API to the wrapper library, if you want to. Normally, you wouldn't: I would think that handing the wrapper library the fd for the socket connection would be an invitation to it to do something like a twist. In other words, if you give it an fd, you should expect that it might not return. However, the simple API doesn't have any way of setting that field, so it's going to stay -1. Inetd, on the other hand, is always going to set it. Now the whole point of doing twist echo "Go away, you're bugging me" is to stuff that string down the throat of the socket. It only makes sense to twist if you've got a socket to twist with. So checking the fd for being -1 before you try to twist has got to be the Right Thing to Do. And that would go along with all the other socket related options: banner, set linger, etc. If you don't have a socket, you should still be able to allow, deny, and set logging priority. So I think that would pretty well cover it -- and it would only mean one check for (fd == -1) in each option. I'm going to make that change on my machine, anyway -- but I'm not actually running STABLE any more 'cause I don't feel like upgrading to 4.0 just now (and, to be honest, I've only been FreeBSDing for about a month.) I'm in the middle of writing a libwrappers map for sendmail, if that makes any sense, so I'm sort of immersed in the code at the moment. If there's something I should do with the patch that would be useful to someone, I'm more than happy to share. But obviously, I'm not a FreeBSD insider. R.

Traditionally, it's in /etc/termcap. On FreeBSD, /etc/termcap is a symbolic link to /usr/share/misc/termcap. Also by tradition, the xterm termcap entry is broken.

Hosts file: 207.200.75.200 netscape.com Exp. relay-domains file: netscape.com This works well but every time I send an email with an address that doesn't exist in my files it will deny the relay.

You have a set of floppies for each release. The tree for 4.0-Release starts at ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.0-RELEASE/ You will find a "floppies" directory with kern.flp and mfsroot.flp in it. You have to write them on to a freshly formated floppy with fdimage from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/tools/. The format has to be flawless, i.e., no bad sectors. You format so that it is right and consistent (aligned) with your floppy drive.

Thanks James I always suggest the use of IP address as the primary control over relaying. If you have roaming users you take care of this as an exception to the IP addresses that are permitted to relay. Your best tool for this is the 'access' database. Create an 'access' database, (if not already created). Remember that the database exists as a pure text source file, that is compiled into a binary database via the makemap utility. Add the following to the text 'access' database and compile: 207.200.75 RELAY This will allow 207.200.75.0/24 to relay through your sendmail server. For roaming users you should use POP-auth or SMTP-AUTH. This is all very nicely explained on the sendmail page. www.sendmail.org -bryan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Mar 31 16:23: 5 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from weeble.dyndns.org (ubppp233-236.dialin.buffalo.edu [128.205.233.236]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2170937B5D8 for ; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 16:22:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjm2@earthling.net) Received: from shithead (shithead.weeble.dyndns.org [10.0.0.2]) by weeble.dyndns.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id TAA51808; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 19:22:55 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjm2@earthling.net) From: "C J Michaels" To: "Conrad Sabatier" Cc: "FreeBSD questions" Subject: RE: /etc/make.conf Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2000 19:22:54 -0500 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) In-Reply-To: X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.6600 Importance: Normal Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm sorry to have to ask.

I use: CFLAGS= -02 -pipe -m486 COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe Ths first adds a little more optimization for ordinary builds, such as the ports collection. The second is the recommended setting for the kernel. There are a few other useful settings besides: # Avoid compiling profiled libraries NOPROFILE= true The average user has no use for these anyway, and you can save a little time and disk space by not compiling them when doing a "make world". If you've installed the Lesstif port: HAVE_MOTIF= yes If you're a USA resident (certain ports check the setting of this variable): USA_RESIDENT=YES Another setting I find very useful is: FORCE_PKG_REGISTER= YES This will force a port to install and register itself when you do a "make install", even if it's already installed. Last but not least, if you use cvsup to update your sources and/or ports collection: SUP_UPDATE= yes # SUP= /usr/local/bin/cvsup SUPFLAGS= -g -L 2 SUPFILE= ${STABLESUPFILE} CURRENTSUPFILE= /root/current-supfile STABLESUPFILE= /root/stable-supfile DOCSUPFILE= /root/doc-supfile PORTSSUPFILE= /root/ports-supfile I've defined a few extra variables here (CURRENT..., STABLE..., DOC..., PORTS...). THE DOC and PORTS supfiles enable you to go to either /usr/doc or /usr/ports and do a "make update" to cvsup the latest changes. CURRENT and STABLE are just some aliases I created; the name that's actually used is, of course, just plain old SUPFILE. This, like DOC and PORTS, enables you to go to /usr/src and do "make update". Hope this helps. -- Conrad Sabatier http://members.home.net/conrads/ ICQ# 1147270 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 Fri Mar 31 16:23:16 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from superman.imag.net (superman.imag.net [207.200.148.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BC02337B563 for ; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 16:23:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from markh@lon.imag.net) Received: from mymachine.imag.net (lon-p55.wwdc.com [207.200.138.56]) by superman.imag.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id QAA06349 for ; Fri, 31 Mar 2000 16:24:11 -0800 (PST) From: Mark Hendriks Reply-To: markh@lon.imag.net To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: backspace. . .

Assuming that you really mean a digital camera when you say 'video camera', such cameras generally use USB. A serial port just wouldn't be able to handle one JPEG every second, let alone 60. Actually, I'm not under the impression that digital cameras have that high a frame rate either (even with USB.) Anyway, if you look in the ports collection, you'll see cqcam, which provides support for the Connectix Quick Cam.

It sounds like you are trying to run FBSD programs from VMWARE. If you really are trying to run the Windows versions of these programs, then, why?

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0. This is the old name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should be da0. Thanks to Francisco Reyes for pointing out this problem. Page 362 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the third edition. Page 409 ________ The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end of the PPP links in some places. It should always be the ``far'' end of the link. Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following it, with this text: defaultrouter="139.130.136.129" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. This is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface. In fact, for PPP you don't need to specify the default address: the PPP packages will set it for you when the link comes up. This makes it possible to Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP addresses, where you don't know the address at this point. We'll see how PPP does this on page 446. In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the second example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with: defaultrouter="139.130.237.65" # Set to default gateway (or NO). Thanks to Andreas Longwitz for pointing out this error. Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the second edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. 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. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? =================================================== Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html. Check there, and if you don't find an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about installing FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility. If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure, or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to FreeBSD-questions. If the question relates to a bug, and you're almost sure that it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. You should also enter a problem report with the send-pr utility. If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies. There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that way. IV: How to submit a question ============================= When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the following points: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly formatted messages without you finding out about them: Eudora exmh Microsoft Exchange Microsoft Internet Mail Microsoft Outlook Netscape As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers which don't get on very well with MIME. For further information on this subject, check out http://www.lemis.com/email.html. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No route to host'''. If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'''. If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file? 7. If you don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend the message. Wait at least 24 hours. The FreeBSD mailer offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to get through. And once it gets through, the one person who might know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part of the world. 8. If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after, say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not going to get one from this forum. Resending the same message again and again will only make you unpopular. To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of these two questions you would be more prepared to answer: Message 1: Subject: (none) I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message 2: Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm having a lot of difficulty installing it. I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16 MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive. The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: How to answer a question ============================ Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. Use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending ``> '' to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ``> '' and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as ``Re: ''. If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. 11. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), please fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as ``HELP!!??''), change the subject line to (say) ``Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)''. That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this 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. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three Page 9 Install ports when installing the system files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. By default it isn't started at boot time. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 17 Install ports when installing the system Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the Page 21 Install ports when installing the system directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

That's what I thought since with Windows, normally two NIC's are required for NAT but with PPPoE, only one is needed. And since FreeBSD can have multiple IP's on one interface, it seems that one can just make the IP on the NIC fxp0 be like 192.168.0.1 or something and then have ppp handle the pppoe but I always thought that the machine would still have a dynamically assigned address after the login? Another thing is that it seems with ADSL, atleast in Windows, when you upload, you can only get about 300kbps because the outgoing pipe can't send the acknowledgement packets back. Is there anyway to overcome this or does FreeBSD know how to prioritize the ack packets before the other things going out the pipe? This one is a stupid question but since I have the Westell WireSpeed modem with PacBell ADSL, is there a way to monitor the average/current speed of the connection?

It's an 8gb western digital, I am still fsck'ing it now. It's taken hours. I'm wondering if anyone knows any utilities that may help me recover some of my data, or help repair the drive, fsck is having a very tough time, and I'm having to do it manually with fsck sometimes (i've pressed 'y' about 2000 times). The system is totaly unusable, none of my kernel's will boot, the boot loader doesn't even run correctly. Thanks in advance for any advice...

I have a Windows 2000 Server and I use "lpdsvcs". In my printcap, I set ":rm=server_name:\" with ":rp=share_name:\". The server_name is the name I have in the hosts table. The share_name is the name I shared the printer as from the W2K properties. They used to have a "unix services" setup that you could download. I just don't have any idea if it will run on Win9x.

I am trying to enable Basic Authentication on a directory. The .htaccess file reads: AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/home/roguetr/public_html/etc/htpasswd.users AuthName "Sammy.quicksilver.net.nz" require valid-user The htpasswd.users file was created using htpasswd. These files are replicas (except for the specified file locations) of a setup that works. In these circumstances however, nothing seems to happen. Apache is 1.3.11 with php4 compiled in. I have seen at least 3 types of auth mod in the conf file. Everything else seems to work fine so I'm assuming it has something to do with the way I'm trying to enable it rather than a problem with the server. Could any replies please be CCed to this address. Thanks for any help. This mailing list is a life saver.

I have finally been able to reproduce the problem. If I choose several packages to install via cdrom, the system will panic and automatically reboot. Below are the panics that I have been able to generate from simply selecting several packages and installing them from the cd with /stand/sysinstall. (I have paraphrased the errors since I couldn't write them down fast enough and I don't know where to find them if they are logged.) 1) panic: page fault synching disks 133 133 133 ...... 2) panic: ffs_valloc valloc failed synching disks ... Also, I was able to generate the following panic by doing a control C while copying from the cdrom to my hard drive. 3) Fatal Trap 12: page fault in kernel mode fault mode: supervisor write, page does not exist(or something like that) Some comments: 1) The panics seem to occur when the cd is operationing 2) The panics seem to occur when the cd is at its maximum speed. The cd is variable speed. I can tell by the pitch changes is makes.

I have been able to make it thru the install all the way to the point where it asks me from where I will be installing from and I chose cd-rom, since this is how I booted the install. But now it says it cannot find my cd rom??? I read in the manual something about problems with atapi cd roms, but arent these common? If so why wouldnt there be a driver/database for them, more importantly what can I do now? Also what do you suggest I check off for the boot, I have boot magick installed on my system and I dont want BSD to overwrite my existing OS's ( win98 and linux on 1st drive) FreeBSD will be on my second IDE. Will boot magic recognize this?

Icq is setup correctly and I have nailed the problem back to nat. I tested by specifying one port: nat port udp 192.168.0.2:30000 30000 and it redirected as required. I then tried specifying the range: nat port udp 192.168.0.2:30000-30500 30000-30500 and port 30000 would still redirect but nothing else within the range. When specifying a range, no redirction, sigular port, redirection. I'm stumped. I seem to be specifying everything correctly. Once again, thanks for your help. Sarton O'Brien PS.

If this is true, the only other question I have is, what does your mail file look like? When you don't receive a message in RMAIL, cat /var/mail/yourusername and determine if the message is actually there. If it is, it's a problem with RMAIL. If it isn't, it may be a sendmail problem (or, perhaps by some header rewrite error, a fetchmail problem, but you say maillog shows delivery). I haven't used fetchmail, but another (less likely) alternative is you have encountered an off-by-one bug in fetchmail, where you really don't have five messages, only 4, and whatever status it reports is incorrect. If you want the whole picture, configure fetchmail to leave mail on the server for you. Then, if and when this happens again, log onto your ISPs POP3 server (with telnet on port 110, for best results) and do a STAT on your mbox to see how many messages are there. RETR any messages you think fetchmail may have missed. -- Ryan Thompson Systems Administrator, Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 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 Sat Apr 1 7:31:12 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from peak.mountin.net (peak.mountin.net [207.227.119.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 933CE37C0B8 for ; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 07:31:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jeff-ml@mountin.net) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by peak.mountin.net (8.9.1/8.9.1) id JAA15619; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 09:31:00 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from jeff-ml@mountin.net) Received: from dial-87.max1.wa.cyberlynk.net(207.227.118.87) by peak.mountin.net via smap (V1.3) id sma015617; Sat Apr 1 09:30:58 2000 Message-Id: <4.3.2.20000401092929.00b907b0@207.227.119.2> X-Sender: jeff-ml@207.227.119.2 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 4.3 Date: Sat, 01 Apr 2000 09:30:11 -0600 To: "Benedict H" , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: "Jeffrey J.

I have been using linux for about two years, and have recently decided to try freeBSD to compare. (Actually I am a Debian GNU/Linux developer, but am getting fed up of the state of the system at the moment). However, being a student, I can't afford the £28 required to buy the Walnut Creek CD's (and can't afford the download time). If anyone could post me a CD-R with the main FreeBSD 4.0, the ports collection (or subset of) and its's sources (I need the sources!) for a few UK Pounds, I would very much apreciate it.

The user is >called "root". :) Don't think of it as a joke. If I get this correctly, the question is: How do you let one user insert, remove, and switch CD's without granting him root privileges? I can imagine one way, using SUID scripts owned by root, run by that user. But as I'm still pretty green, I'm not sure if it will work; or if it is even necessary. One thing you could make sure of, is that these commands are issued from the local terminal. Remotelyremoving a CD makes not much sense. -- Bart.

The default would be to have 8 of those. The spurious init processes are a side effect of init trying to exec getty, it needs to fork itself 1st before it can exec getty. Since it can't exec getty you are seeing the fork'd instance on init just before it dies with the error below. At which point init forks itself again and tried to exec getty again, ad infintium. All you should need to do is edit /etc/ttys and correct the entries that are pointing to the wrong getty. The correct entries should be pointing to "/usr/libexec/getty". And example of the relevant lines in /etc/ttys would look something like this: # Virtual terminals ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure [...] ttyv7 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure hope this helps -- Chris ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arcady Genkin" To: Sent: Saturday, April 01, 2000 11:51 AM Subject: A message from init > I have this message going on over and over again in /var/log/messages. > ,---- > | Apr 1 11:32:50 soup init: can't exec getty '/usr/local/sbin/mgetty' \ > | for port /dev/cuaa2: No such file or directory > `---- > The problem is that I first installed, and then uninstalled > mgetty+sendfax port.

Looks like you just need to restore one of the backups that you do regularly. Of course, you'll lose anything between the error and the last backup, but that's life.

Well, I think giving /usr/mail the same permissions and ownership as /var/mail would be a pretty safe way to go. In my case I would, # mkdir /usr/mail # chown root.mail /usr/mail # chmod 775 /usr/mail # kill `head -1 /var/run/sendmail.pid` # tar cf - -C /var/mail . | tar xf - -C /usr/mail # mv /var/mail /var/mail.old # just to be safe # ln -s usr/mail /var/mail # /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -q30m And I think that would do it. Remove /var/mail.old when you verify everything got copied and is working fine. -- Crist J.

I ask this because of the "multiple versions" that shows up when I run pkg_version after upgrading from 3.4-R to 3.4-S. A bunch now show up, and I'm assuming it's because multiple versions of a port exist, rather than my installation of multiple versions of a package or port. For instance, bash has multiple versions, but I only installed 2.03. However, an earlier version shows up in the ports tree, so is this why pkg_version shows multiple version existing? -- David Kanter djkanter@nwu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Apr 1 10:14:28 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 32BE637B5FC for ; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 10:14:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id MAA59473; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 12:14:24 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from dan) Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2000 12:14:23 -0600 From: Dan Nelson To: Marc Tardif Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ppp -alias is deprecated Message-ID: <20000401121423.A59254@dan.emsphone.com> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.1.9i In-Reply-To: ; from "Marc Tardif" on Sat Apr 1 12:51:06 GMT 2000 X-OS: FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the last episode (Apr 01), Marc Tardif said: > PPP aliasing use to work on my freebsd box, but now I'm getting the > message: -alias is deprecated.

However, for historical reasons, you get a warning from pwd_mkdb(8) when trying to use values over 2^15. Although FreeBSD itself can use 32-bit uids just fine, there may be some external programs that can't, and NFS version 2 is incapable of using uids larger than that number (it's built right into the protocol). If you're not using NFS, you should be just fine. Good luck.

My usual solution is chmod g+w /dev/rfd0 and make sure that user is in the group that owns the device (which is 'operator' by default, but you could make a group specifically for the floppy if you wanted). I handle this by making an entry in /dev/MAKEDEV.local which sets up all the relevant permissions and ownerships.

They would also need the permissions to the block device, and you would have to set the vfs.usermount sysctl to 1. This is a less secure solution than mtools, and for MS-DOS users (and typical uses of DOS floppies), it's less convenient. > b) I guess it could be the place where it is advisible to > use amd(automounter) to spare typing of mount command > every time and delegating the whole work of recognizing, > initalizing to it(it as automounter).Is it to naive or > could really be used in practice?

I haven't used amd myself, but lots of people have used it for this sort of thing. It has a man page which seems to explain how to use it. [type "man 8 amd" and "man 5 amd.conf"] Good luck.

XFree86 version 4.0 is giving more support for those cards now, but not sure exactly what. Go to http://www.xfree86.org FYI, when I put in my Voodoo 3000 XFree86 4.0 recognized it and installed drivers.

The source is on the first disk, in the subdirectory named 'src'. The files in there are 'tar' files, compressed and split into 235k chunks. The 'ssys.*' ones make up the set of "system" source files, which contain the kernel portions (i.e., the stack itself). Many commands related to IP are in other collections (primarily the usr/bin set, which are in subin.*). On FreeBSD, the way to expand them is cat ssys.*|tar -xzv -C -f - I don't really know how to do it on Windows (I actually use FreeBSD, you see), but the basic theory would be similar: you need to concatenate the files, uncompress them, and untar them. The latter two parts require programs that don't come with Windows: versions of gunzip and tar. I believe that Cygnus has versions of these programs, but there may be simpler ways to get them. Good luck.

The source number is always fixed on outgoing connections, but it's up to the application to specify if it wants to use an IP address other than the primary. You may want to look at the manpage for 'jail' as it allows you to create virtual machines where the primary IP of the virtual machine is different from the primary of the whole box. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."

This is probably a child of init forked to exec mgetty on /dev/cuaa2, but failing, so the process name stays as "init".

Using xf86config, I was unable to get the proper drivers selected for my cards. I had to use the auto-detect function of XFree86. Here's what I did. 1) Run XFree86 -configure. This should detect your card and select the proper drivers. It produces the file ~/XF86Config.new. 2) Run xf86config. This is for getting your screen modes and related info. It's output is /etc/X11/XF86Config. 3) Merge the two files selecting the appropriate entries from `/XF86Config.new and putting them in /etc/X11/XF86Config. This was the only way I was able to get things to work. -- Walter Brameld Microsoft: Where do you want to go today? Linux: Where do you want to go tomorrow? BSD: Are you guys coming, or what?

Of course I can't scroll back that far. Try pkg_info to see which is installed. And finally, try XFree86 -version. It works with 4.0, not sure about 3.3.6. I believe /stand/sysinstall will give you 3.3.6, but 4.0 is in the ports collection under FreeBSD 4.0. -- Walter Brameld Microsoft: Where do you want to go today?

FreeBSD can mount filesystems as a user. Without an additional, possibly insecure, setuid program. Just 'sysctl -w vfs.userload=1', and set your device and mount point permissions accordingly. Or, simply create two setuid scripts that each do exactly one thing - the first mounts a specific filesystem in a specific place, and the other unmounts the specific filesystem in that specific place. Look in the FAQ, the "System Administration" section, and the "How do I let ordinary users mount floppies and other removable media" question.

No, you're exactly right. You need to tell Apache when you're moving the files out from under it. [This is documented in the Apache manuals, which is where I figured it out from.] You need to send a SIGHUP to Apache at the right time. I use newsyslog(8) for this, with the relevant line being: /var/log/httpd-access.log 644 4 100 336 Z /var/run/httpd.pid but if you really need to write your own script, you'll have to use kill(1) to do so. For the record, I recommend using newsyslog if you can. Be well.

You must explicitly set the the state to "off" instead of "on" in the appropriate line in /etc/ttys, or init won't notice it's gone. Once you've restarted init after making this change, you can delete the line from the file. I think it was Alfred Perlstein who fixed this recently. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Apr 1 13:41:42 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from nscache2.x-treme.gr (mail1.x-treme.gr [212.120.196.23]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DDF5537BC5A for ; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 13:41:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from keramida@ceid.upatras.gr) Received: from hades.hell.gr (pat32.x-treme.gr [212.120.197.224]) by nscache2.x-treme.gr (8.9.3/8.9.3/IPNG-ADV-ANTISPAM-0.1) with ESMTP id AAA06421; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 00:41:14 +0300 Received: (from charon@localhost) by hades.hell.gr (8.9.3/8.9.3) id WAA02385; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 22:58:15 +0300 (EEST) (envelope-from charon) Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2000 22:58:14 +0300 From: Giorgos Keramidas To: Cliff Rowley Cc: outlawtx@bga.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: how do I change the default editor?

I don't know if I got this right, but I think that the only thing you can do safely is to back your disks up, configure your hardware controller in whichever way you find preferable, then restore the backup you have kept. I admit this can be tricky, and it might require you to have a spare disk at and, to install a version of BSD on it, in order to be able to use the 'restore' program to write to the 2-disk raid your backed up data. If the machine can not go down for the time required to do an installation of a new release, and restore of backed-up data, then I think that it's not possible to do this without a second machine of similar hardware. The minimum downtime is if you use a second machine (not necessarily raid-based) to make a 'copy' of the current system. Then swap the two machines, and leave the 'copy' in place, while you're playing with the raid-disks. After you're done setting up the raid disks, swap again, and you're done [take care for logs and files that changed on the 'copy' while it was in place of the raid-system].

I certainly hope not. It's not a good idea to relay anything that passes through your machine's smtp ports. However, if you want anyone to be allowed to send mail using your sendmail setup, then add to your /etc/hosts.allow: sendmail: ALL: ALLOW and then generate your sendmail.cf once more with the promisquous_relay feature enabled.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi (Thanks to all that helped me with adding additional keys to my keyboard) I have a new "irritation" - mainly with the Shockwave Flash plugin. I run FreeBSD workstations at home and at work (Both v3.4-STABLE), and I run the Linux Netscape Navigator (v4.72 standalone). I installed the Linux Flash plugin at home around six months ago, and while I could view most plugins, I kept having problems with some Flash movies where Netscape would say: "A plugin for the MIME type application/octet-stream was not found" -or- "A plugin for the MIME type text/plain was not found" (This also sometimes happens with the RealPlayer 7 plugin, where it will ask for "A plugin for the MIME type audio/x-realplayer was not found") Now, I just added the Shockwave Flash and RealPlayer 7 plugins on my workstation at work, and I visit the same sites where I had those error messages at home, and the movies (or streams) come thru just fine. I have checked the .netscape/plugin-list and ~/.mime-types and it still does it at home. Is there anything else I need to change here at home to get this to work?

However, according to their website (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/freebsd/bsd-a.phtml it appears they've changed their minds. I imagine the delay is because they're waiting for duplication. I'm curious if they're going to continue with a 3.5-RELEASE and 4.1-RELEASE both coming out early this summer. -- Doug Poland To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Apr 1 15:53:39 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.hellasnet.gr (mail.hellasnet.gr [212.54.192.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D6CDA37BD1D for ; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 15:53:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from keramida@ceid.upatras.gr) Received: from hades.hell.gr (ppp3.patr.hellasnet.gr [212.54.197.18]) by mail.hellasnet.gr (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id BAA24121 for ; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 01:52:29 +0200 (GMT) Received: (from charon@localhost) by hades.hell.gr (8.9.3/8.9.3) id CAA01591 for questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 2 Apr 2000 02:54:44 +0300 (EEST) (envelope-from charon) Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2000 02:54:42 +0300 From: Giorgos Keramidas To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: 'dead' keys in keymaps?

I don't seem to be able to make the `;' key act as a dead-key and put an accent to the greek letters. I have the entire keymap ready, but not for accented greek :/ How can I make `;' become a dead key?

I have tried to install FreeBSD 4.0 on a computer that has CD-ROM units on the first IDE bus and sometimes a harddrive (for example the one I am installing FreeBSD on) as slave on the second IDE bus (the master on that bus is a ZIP drive (fixed electronics but removable media)). Before presenting my questions, I will explain why I have that more or less strange order of drives: 1. I have NOT tried all 24 permutations of my IDE units. I have concentrated only on configurations with the CD-ROM reader as master on the same bus that has the CD-Writer as slave, so I have selected one of the four remaining cases. The cases are described using linux device names as ide adresses: /dev/hda /dev/hdb /dev/hdc /dev/hdd Case 1 Removable ZIP CD-ROM CD-Writer drive drive Case 2 ZIP Removable CD-ROM CD-Writer drive drive Case 3 CD-ROM CD-Writer Removable ZIP drive drive Case 4 CD-ROM CD-Writer ZIP Removable drive drive 2. Because the harddisk is removable (and sometimes no hardisk is mounted), the other unit on that bus may have better to be master, and observations indicate that case 1 and case 3 seems cause problems with accessing ZIP drive or its media when no removable harddisk drive (with its integrated electronics) is not present. 3. Case 2 seems to prevent a CD-ROM in /dev/hdc from being bootable when the removable harddisk drive is not present. That leaves case 4 working (OK, at least sometimes because sometimes my Linux (SuSE) seems to have difficulties in finding the removable drive (when present (NOT removed)) (maybe more often if there is a ZIP disk in its drive too early during startup when I am booting Linux from diskett). That has been observed only when I am booting Linux with the root filesystem on ZIP media. My conclusion: I seem to have some problems with my Intel BIOS and it doesn't help that I prefer to be able to use different combinations, sometimes with only removable medias mounted. I usually boot Win98 from harddisk (Microsoft OSs seems to be enough stupid to not notice my strange configuration), but I am always using boot floppies to boot linux on that computer. (I also am not capable to make bootable ZIP disks (at least not with lilo under Linux), maybe because the ATAPI ZIP drive seems to report more than 63 (in fact 96, I think) sectors per track). OK, now to the FreeBSD questions: 1. Is the procedure for booting FreeBSD 4.0 (or the principles for configuration of the booting process) the same as in FreeBSD 3.2 ? 2. Is any of the floppy images that are on the FreeBSD 4.0 Release disk intended for "daily" booting of an installed system without need for boot managers and/or correct settings of the partitions' boot flags ? 3. What options do I have during installation time and what options do I seem to have to make bootable floppies/CD-ROMs. For example: * What did I forget to do during installation (how should you know) ? * May I be able to copy a boot manager from a harddisk MBR into a boot floppy or must I use a different boot manager when booting from diskett ? * Is there any problem (like the bZImage case in Linux) when you try to copy a boot diskett image into a CD-R media using "Eltorito" ? I have the book I got together with FreeBSD 3.2, so if you think that I have been too lazy to read it, then please tell me that (or maybe what sections seem to be most relevant to me when installing and making boot disks (OK, I have no problems with RAWRITE.EXE or dd)).

Yes (provisionally). Xanim (ports/graphics/xanim) can play Quicktime movies. The latest Quicktime movies that use the Sorenson codec won't be able to be viewed however as Apple hasn't released that codec.

My fix for this (and probably not the best fix by any means) was to move the CDROM to be the slave on the primary controller. I *think* (I'm kinda guessing, but it worked for me) that it scans for drives sequentially (pri-master, pri-slave, sec-master, sec-slave) and stops looking once it finds an empty slot, or something like that.

The present sendmail process dies and a new sendmail is spawned that reads the new config files. That's why I sent sendmail a TERM in the above example. However, thinking about it more, sendmail _loves_ to fork off copies of itself. After killing the parent sendmail as shown above, check to make sure there are no children still about. Wait for them to finish whatever they are doing before continuing. > mv > ln -s /usr/mail /var/mail # watch that first / ;-) Yep. I saw that typo after I sent the mail.

IIRC, ghostscript is usually configured to support X11 as an output. The port is probably set this way by default (more machines than not would have X11 installed I would guess). There should be a way of convincing the port that you don't want the X support, in which case you can rebuild it without XFree. Otherwise you can probably delete everything except the X libs (in /usr/X11R6/lib ?). If you can't figure this out, I suggest that you try and contact the port's maintainer, or redirect your question to the ports mailing list. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

These things have an LPD server built in IIRC, so your could just configure them as a remote LPD printer in /etc/printcap. However, I've not been totally satisfied with some of HP's earlier attempts at LPD support in JetDirect cards for their lasers printers, as they weren't particularly reliable, particularly when multiple jobs were queued simultaneously. I hope their more recent stuff is better behaved. You might want to check out LprNg or CUPS to see whether they support the native HP protocol (on port 9100???) if your box doesn't seem to cope, so that one box can be the "print server" and thus serialize all the jobs. We do this at work, although in that case NT is providing the "print server" function. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

NFS v3 handles it ok, we (are forced to) use big UID's on many of our freebsd systems that communicate with Sun nfsd's. Also, in FreeBSD 4.0 there is an environment variable that you can set which supresses the warning. Doug -- "So, the cows were part of a dream that dreamed itself into existence?

You can setup the stock FreeBSD lpd to talk the native HP printer protocol to a HP printer with a Jet Direct card. I've got the following setup on a -current box that talks to my HP LaserJet 4000 (hostname is "printer"): in /etc/printcap: lp|ps:\ :mx#0:lp=9100@printer:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:sh:\ :if=/usr/local/lib/filters/inputshell:\ :of=/usr/local/lib/filters/ofhp: /usr/local/lib/filters/inputshell is just this: #!/bin/sh /usr/local/lib/filters/ifhp -Ttbcp=on,model=5M exit 0 The ifhp/ofhp comes in the ifhp port, which is ports/print/ifhp. The above setup works well with either text files or postscript.

You have to boot with a comconsole before the tty will appear. You should be able to get it working with the following steps. 1. Set up an appropriate entry in /etc/remote. If you are connected to cuaa1 (com 2) on the machine that will be reading the console, just duplicate the entry for cuaa0c in the file and change the name and device accordingly. Mine (for 9600) looks like this: cuaa1-9600|slow:dv=/dev/cuaa1:br#9600:pa=none: 2. Connect to the port with tip. 'tip slow' 3. echo '-P' > /boot.config 4. Enable the tty on ttyd0. Either that, or recompile the kernel to put the console on cuaa0. 5. Shutdown the machine you want to read the serial terminal from. 6. Disconnect the keyboard from that machine, and power it up. 7. Watch the console messages on your serial console. 8. The tty will come up after it's done booting. :) Good luck, Doug -- "So, the cows were part of a dream that dreamed itself into existence?

Try w3m -- /usr/ports/www/w3m It handles tables and frames much better than lynx. I've mainly switched to w3m now, using lynx only in some cases where w3m doesn't do the right thing with cookies. If you must use lynx, you can probably compile it easily enough without the help of the ports.

In both cases, I learnt once (the hard way) that the root partition must be under 1 MB. (or maybe 2 MB). It's not enough if the / "slice" in FreeBSD is small: the MSDOS-style partition itself must be. Maybe this is a machine or BIOS dependent thing, though. For me, that time, slicing up an 8 GB disk didn't work, I needed to partition it first. If you do that, and make sure / is < 1 MB, linux should certainly install too.
