Does anyone know, where I can ftp netboot.com for NE2000 from (to boot a diskless FreeBSD)? I tried to use archie but I have found nb3c509 and nb8390 only. They did not work with several NE2000 cards I have. Recompiling with option -DINCLUDE_NE did not help. Does the netboot.com files need lsl and a card driver? Do lsl , card drivers and ipxodi loaded allow running netboot.com (to run it after having logged into a novell)? Thanks for help!

I'm running FreeBSD-2.1. Everything works fine. EXCEPT: sendmail receives and delivers emails for all users with usernames all lowercase, BUT when sending email to users with usernames that include also uppercase-letters (like Test@bla.bla), sendmail brings the following error: "Test@bla.bla... User unknown", when sending it with mail. After this i (the sender) receive a mail from MAILER-DAEMON saying: . . . Subject: Returned mail: User unknown . . Test@bla.bla (unrecoverable error) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 550 Test@bla.bla... User unknown "Test" is a user on my machine "bla.bla" How can i force sendmail to deliver mail to users with uppercase-letters in their usernames ? Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Switches away from card are off.. RTFM Or the Switch.. It says right on the switch.. Try these settings. SW: 1=Off (Depends on termination) (Off = Software) 2=On (IO Port 0x134) (Rarely used) 3=Off (IO Port) 4=On (IO Port) 5=On (Floppy disabled) 6=Off (Bios address) (DC000H) (Make sure nothing 7=Off (Bios address) else is using this address) 8=Off (Bios address) You only have one device so the 1542CF needs software termination for it's end of the chain. That is SW1=Off. SW2,3,4 = 0x134, Just a low address thats not used to often by others! SW6,7,8 = Bios address.. This you'll need to know if anything else is using. Alot of items use D8000h as thier default! As you see I've suggested dC000h. -Enjoy Gary ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Improve America's Knowledge... Share yours The Borg...

No requirement > for real Netware login. Currently AFAIK there is no such package for FreeBSD.. Although I am working on porting the Linux LinWare (lwared) package, It's becomming more of a pain then at first thought! (And getting to be above my head) It's very buggy, And is only a file server! No print services! I do plan on continuing work on it. Anyone else is more then welcome to take it on.. :) There is IPX kernel code avaliable for 2.0 and 2.1r, I *belive* that it comes in 2.1.5.. (Not sure yet) Along with this kernel code there is a IPXrouted daemon. So progress is being made! -Enjoy Gary ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Improve America's Knowledge... Share yours The Borg...

I *belive* NEC does. The problem here is the SCSI controller NOT the CD-ROM. The TMC3260 is NOT supported.

There appears to be some sort of cartridge write-protect that can be set and cleared via software; but there is no FreeBSD support for it. 2. Each drive comes with a 'Tools' cartridge. This cartridge is specially formatted to be readable by both Mac and PC (MS-DOS/ MS-WINDOWS*); and contains some tools and a multi-media show. The cartridge cannot be written by FreeBSD until the tools are installed (under PC or Mac OS), or the included 'recover' utility is run (also under PC or Mac OS). If you buy spare cartridges, they will be preformatted for either Mac or MS-DOS, with no data files; and may be used directly out of the box. -Pat My opinions are my own.

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"**). 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. I'm taking the viewpoint of the newcomer here: we have other ways of handling arrogant hackers :-) When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, please remember: 1. 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. 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, so please specify a subject. "FreeBSD problem" or "Can't get this to work" aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, most people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Please try to 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. 4. Please 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. 5. Please 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. 6. If you 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. For example, let's assume you know the answer to the following question. 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 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". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for this 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.

I think it does not actually hang. Remember you have gone to terminal mode. The messages displayed looked pretty normal. What you have to do is to *press some special key to get out of the terminal mode* or a escape sequence they call it. In my experience with a different OS such as Linux, this key was CTRL-].

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk The plea... We are in process of converting our Usenet News server to FreeBSD. In the past it has been SCO Unix 3.2.4 (lots of problems), and Redhat Linux 1.2.13 and 2.0.10 (even more problems). When our satellite feed jumped from 200+ Mb/day to 800+ Mb/day, we had to do something. We already have a box with FreeBSD 2.0.5 that has been up constantly for almost a year with no problems: the only time it has ever had to be rebooted was during a 5 hour power outage last winter. Other than that, it has been like a rock! No problems what-so-ever. The News server is running with a AMD586/133 chip (Triton chipset), has an Adaptec 2940 (their SCSISelect program says aha2940U), and 5 hard disks with the following layout: 1.2 Gb Seagate for /, /var, and /tmp 1.2 Gb Seagate for /usr, /u, and swap 2.6 Gb DEC for /var/spool/news (all but alt.*) 3.9 Gb Fujitsu for /var/spool/news/alt (alt.*) 540 Mb Connor for /var/spool/news/over.view (overview database) When we installed FreeBSD 2.1, we could not get the system to boot - the book we have said that is probably due to bad disk geometry. All disks came from existing systems and were operational. We tried using the manufacturers specs for cyls/hds/sects to no avail. We tried installing MS-DOS on all drives to no avail. We used the numbers on the existing FreeBSD system to no avail (it has the same model Seagates). The only way we got it to boot was to create 1 partition in fdisk and respond No to the "incompatible with future filesystems" prompt. When we started the News system, the processing was so slow we could not keep up with the feed. There are 150 K of articles/day and the best we could do was 1.4 articles/second. With the Linux setup, we get 3.54 articles/second, and SCO did 4.22 (different box for SCO). The problems with SCO and Linux are they need to be rebooted 4 - 6 times a day because of system hang-ups - mostly general protection faults or bad inodes. With the FreeBSD setup, the system would just hang - no message and no response to any key combo. We know we have this setup wrong somewhere. After all, the other FreeBSD system here is working wonderfully. We just don't know where. Have you any hints, ideas, suggestions? Can you point us in the right direction? Another problem is that we have 5 disks, and the setup procedure only installs 4. Is there a way to change that? We could not find a procedure for adding disk drives after-the-fact in the Install book. Is there a procedure for that if that is the way to go? Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated. The system has been out of service for 6 days now, and the users are getting really grumpy. Thanks a lot! Jim Stewart C4 Systems, Inc.

As far as my DEC memory goes, the 200 can only be booted using MOP and only supports LAT for terminal sessions. You need 300 or better (and with DEC, 90 is better than 300 BTW :-) to have Telnet support. If I remember correctly, and there is no implementation of MOP and LAT for FBSD (or is there one?) you can't make that work. To load the 200 you'd need something that knows MOP (read as DEC made). That could be (I *think*) a PC running PATHWORKS, or a VMS machine or an Ultrix machine or a DEC UNIX machine, etc. You'll also need the boot files for the DECServer 200. For it to be useful you'll need a server that understands LAT. If you have access to a working 200, you can verify my assumptions by typing HELP at it, and see if it has the Telnet command, but I'm 99% percent sure that this command first appeared on the 300.

DEBUG: ioctl(3, TIOCCONS, NULL) = 0 (success) sd0(aic0:1:0): timed out Have looked in the archives on your site, but did not determine whether the card was actually supported or not. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Craig.

There is MOP software available for NetBSD. It should compile under FreeBSD. Here is where you can find it. ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se:/pub/OS/NetBSD/mopd/mopd-2.4.1.tar.gz The author is Mats O Jansson . I haven't yet tried it, but you should be able to load the DECserver with it. That is, if you have the DECserver 250 image PR0801ENG.SYS. This image can be found on VAX/VMS boxes in the SYS$COMMON:[DECSERVER] or the MOM$LOAD directories. If this all works, you will not be able to access the FreeBSD box through the terminal server because there is no support for LAT in FreeBSD.

I have 2 hard drives, a 252 MB as the master and a 2000 MB as the slave. Although my bios is dated February 1994, I had trouble seeing all of my 2000 MB drive. So I used IBM's Disk Manager software to create 2 1000 MB partitions. In doing so Disk Manager created a boot manager on my C drive which prompts me to press the spacebar if I want to boot from a floppy, otherwise it boots from my C drive. Then I attempted to install FreeBSD. I created an installation boot floppy from my FreeBSD v2.1 installation CD and proceeded to install a intermediate level XDevleloper version of FreeBSD. To create space I deleted the second partition created by Disk Manager and created a 950 MB partition for FreeBSD. I requested that the master boot record remain untouched, however after the installation was completed, and the system rebooted, I was prompted to insert a boot floppy in drive A. My PC won't boot now unless I have a boot floppy. This wouldn't be so bad if I could boot FreeBSD from a floppy, but I can't figure out how. I don't see anywhere in the menus how to create a boot floppy to run FreeBSD. I do see how to create one for installation. So FreeBSD is installed but I can't run it. The ideal situation would be to have FreeBSD's boot manager control whether I boot DOS or BSD and have BSD on my large drive (I would rather not boot from a floppy). However, I need Disk Manager's boot manager to see all of my large drive. The next desirable situation would be to boot FreeBSD from a floppy - but I need instructions on how to do so. If you can give me any other options for the solution of this problem, I would appreciate it. I hope that I was too descriptive of the problem, however if I wasn't please contact me so that I can further clarify. I am very eager to get started with FreeBSD. I look forward to your reply.

My question is: Is there support for the "Digiboard PCXem" and "Digi Datafire 4St(u)" cards under FreeBSD ? I had a quick scan over the archive but found only discussions about problems with the drivers for this cards. So the next question would be: If this cards are supported under FreeBSD, what about the stability of the drivers. If there are people out there using this cards under FreeBSD, i would also be glad to hear about experiences concerning this cards. Thanks a lot for all your help.

Note that you do need to have a fair amount of available space and you do need to defragment the drive before doing this. The instructions always say to back up your data first. If this were possible, you should just fdisk and then reinstall everything from the backup! It's a standard disclaimer. Few people can backup data first, and few people do.

Try making an alias for ls that is 'linuxls --color -F'. You must use color_xterm if you want to see the directory colors in an xterm. Here's my ~/.aliases entry alias ls 'linuxls --color -F' Hope that helps! - Justin J.

Then get one of them. They are both in the ports distribution under the misc category. You MUST use a colored ls and color_xterm if you want to see colorful 'ls' output in X. I happen to like Linuxls because setting it up is more straightforward. Colorls is more customizable.

I tried initially to install FBSD via a DOS partition to the second disc, (which didn't work). Then I defragged the first disc, split it with FIPS equally and then tried to install into the second half of the disc. This gave a error message along the lines of "can't install root distribution". I read somewhere that the root partition has to end before 1024 cyl, so is this the problem? - I am going to redo FIPS to keep the root below 504MB. However I don't know why FBSD couldn't go on the second drive. I was also going to get 2.1.5 boot floppy to see if this will enable me to install 2.1 from IDE CD-ROM - will that work? cheers mark From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 12 15:01:53 1996 Return-Path: owner-questions Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id PAA27917 for questions-outgoing; Mon, 12 Aug 1996 15:01:53 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from karl@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id PAA27895; Mon, 12 Aug 1996 15:01:47 -0700 (PDT) From: Karl Strickland Message-Id: <199608122201.PAA27895@freefall.freebsd.org> Subject: Xconfig file for GXE90 & Dell VS17 - help To: questions, hackers Date: Mon, 12 Aug 1996 15:01:46 -0700 (PDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm having a problem configuring X11 on my Dell P90.

The machine I'd like to use as master has a dial-up connection to the Internet. I don't want time activities to cause dial-outs (I use ppp with dial-on-demand). Also for information, I run a caching-only name server. So I want to prevent timed from talking to the dial-up network, or restrict it to talking to my in-house network. Starting with the first option... My ISP's router is 198.7.0.124 - # nslookup 198.7.0.124 Server: localhost.dialup.access.net Address: 127.0.0.1 Name: slip-gw.access.net Address: 198.7.0.124 So I add 'access.net' to my '/etc/networks' file - access.net 198.7.0 # panix and use timed -t -M -d -i access.net to work with all networks, except my ISP. This doesn't work, I see the following in the log... acksend: to broadcast: MASTERREQ 1 171 198.7.0.124 freebie.my.domain readmsg: looking for MASTERACK from ANY, 198.7.0.124 OOPS, I'm trying to be a master time daemon on my ISP's network. I also get messages suggesting that the daemon is working correctly on my local network. But I have to prevent the connection to my ISP since that will cause automatic connections on every update, not to mention possibly interfering with their time daemons. So I try the alternative, force timed to look at my own network only. I use 10.0.0 as my net (netmask 0xffffff00), so I add the following to /etc/networks: my.domain 10.0.0 # At-home Ethernet - no Internet connection # ping freebie.my.domain PING freebie (10.0.0.2): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=11.164 ms ... Now I do: # timed -t -M -d -n my.domain and get: timed: no network usable Without the /etc/networks line I get: timed: unknown net my.domain So I'm baffled. Is anyone doing this successfully? Am I missing something? Sorry this is so long, but I have been through the man pages and archives and tried the variations I could think of.

Then get Greg Leahy's postscript document on it at ftp://freefall.freebsd.org/pub/incoming/disks.ps.gz And get ready for some grief, this whole experience made me long for the format utility that comes with Solaris -- yes, Solaris's format utility is actually not bad: if it does'nt know the drive geometry, it offers you a menu item to ask you about the disk geometry which you can read off of the specs. Comparitively very user friendly. My effort involved setting up a Seagate SCSI 2 gig baracuda. I ended up using the DOS fdisk to really read the geometry, took notes on what my numbers "should" be and then booted fbsd and used my notes to correct it's misunderstanding of the drive's layout in fbsd's fdisk. Then used "disklabel sd1 auto" -- I had to use "disklabel -e sd1" to make corrections -- once everything was cogently layed out in the disklabel, "newfs -d0 /dev/rsd1d" (where d is the partition on sd1 that I wanted a filesystem created on...) and so forth for any other partitions defined in the disklabel. Changes made to the fstab and voila: I was done. This process really really ought to be simplified and better documented. A unified fdisk and disklabel utility is sorely needed, not sysinstall, which seems to insist that you have mount points you don't need and wants to newfs your existing filesystems. This issue of disk management is a real barrier for folks new to fbsd -- one would want disk swapping and set-up to be fast and easy but if one must "work around" fdisk and disklabel's deficiencies everytime a new filesystem needs to be added, freeBSD is going to scare a lot of people over to another OS. Actually, I don't know if Linux offers a credible alternative, I played around with it at home in the past but never needed to add disks. I heard they adopted the net/2 tcp-ip code since then though so they can't be all bad ;) > From: zeeb@digitaladvantage.net (Russ Panula) > To: Mike > Cc: questions@FreeBSD.org > Subject: Re: The Old New Disk Question > Date: Sun, 11 Aug 1996 18:09:19 -0600 > Organization: Digital Advantage Corporation > On Sun, 11 Aug 1996 14:21:07 -0500 (CDT), you wrote: > > >I have just spent the past three hours searching the archives for a step > >by step explanation of how to add a new hard drive.

Ok, I don't belive in things like fips, So I have never used it! ... It should install on the second drive. Yes, You do need to keep the root slice (partition) below cylinder 1024. (504MB) I'll *assume* two IDE controllers: wd0, wd1.. With 2.1r & ATAPI CD's you need to have your drive setup like this: wd0: HD master CD slave wd1: HD Master (Single) This is do to a bug in 2.1r. Installing from a dos partition is done all the time, It should work no problem as long as the files are error free, and the tree structure is setup properly. ie: C:\FREEBSD\BIN FLOPPIES etc... etc... Nope Sorry, I don't belive the 2.1.5 boot.flp will work for 2.1r. Make sure you create you boot.flp from dos 6.22 or less! Dos mode of W95 conflicts with rawrite.exe. Run dos fdisk on your second drive and blow away all attemps to install FreeBSD on it. Create a small dos partition.. (This will get deleted in a few) Boot with your boot disk built from dos 6.22 or less and rawrite.exe At the Boot: prompt do a '-c' and goto visual and disable/correct all settings. Continue on.. While in the disk editor BLOW away the dos partition and create the FreeBSD slices (partitions) *DO NOT (W)rite anything!* Once done, If you get an error saying something on the lines of: No operating system found Boot dos and use fdisk to set a partition active! I'm sure I missed a step or two but I belive I covered the problem spots.. :) Main things are: Delete any previous partition attempts! Create a small dos partition. (Helps FreeBSD get the disk geometry correct) Create the boot disk from dos 6.22 or less! W95 Dos mode conflicts. And the drive cabling configuration as noted above! Don't (W)rite anything.

I suggest buying a IDE card with LBA abilities. They are pretty cheap. Especially compared to the risks of DDO. (~50 bux or less) FreeBSD does have a boot manager, I don't know how it will react with DDO. Your best bet may be to have it boot FreeBSD from HD, And dos from Floppy. Someone that uses DDO would be able to make better suggestions! Although I belive I have seem messages on here where people have used FreeBSD boot manager with DDO, Or other boot managers! -Enjoy Gary ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Improve America's Knowledge...

I would LIKE to keep the most used filesystems on the SCSI disk, taking advantage of the speed - the desired partitioning scheme would be something like this: wd0 sd0 /tmp / /var /usr /home/ftp /usr/local extra space /usr/X11R6 /home swap Since the kernel will be on sd0, I'm hoping that FreeBSD's boot manager will properly boot to the kernel if it is installed on the master drive, which as I understand it has to be wd0. Does the PC-BIOS limitation of booting beyond a ceratin number of sectors apply in this case? Or can I put the root partition on sd0, and the boot manager on wd0, as I had hoped? And if I can do that, then do I partition sd0 with true partition entries and no boot manager?

IDE controllers are named wdc0 and wdc1. wd0 and wd1 are the names of the disks. With the configuration outlined above the dissk would be wd0 and wd1. If you indeed install the root FBSD partiotion on the second disk you'll have to build a custom kernel with the following line in the configuration file: config kernel root on wd2 To do that you'll need to connect the FBSD disk to the first controller (at least temporarily). In my opinion it is easier in this setup to have the root partition on the first disk, but it can be made to work either way... > > Installing from a dos partition is done all the time, It should > work no problem as long as the files are error free, and the tree > structure is setup properly. > ie: > C:\FREEBSD\BIN > FLOPPIES > etc... etc... > > Nope Sorry, I don't belive the 2.1.5 boot.flp will work for 2.1r. > > Make sure you create you boot.flp from dos 6.22 or less!

Take care of the little BootEasy bug in sysinstall. When being asked on what disks you'd like to install FreeBSD mark them both. First you'll get the partiotion editor for the first disk. Don't change anything there, just Quit and then you'll be asked what should be put in the boot block. Select bootmanager. This would have the effect of installing BootEasy on the first disk. Then you'll get the parttion editor for the second disk... > While in the disk editor BLOW away the dos partition and create > the FreeBSD slices (partitions) > *DO NOT (W)rite anything!* > > Once done, If you get an error saying something on the lines of: > No operating system found > Boot dos and use fdisk to set a partition active! > > I'm sure I missed a step or two but I belive I covered the problem > spots.. :) You did....

I'm not sure I fully understand what you mean. Aliasing is giving more than one address to a single physical interface. That can be easily done with something like: ifconfig inet de0 192.116.93.19 netmask 255.255.255.255 alias This would have the effect of two addresses being bound to the same physical connection. Node that the netmask should be all 1's, unless you know what you're doing... To have more than one PCI ethernet card is even easier (I didn't try two 100BaseTX cards, but I have one 100baseTX + one 10baseT working...). Rebuild you're kernel with lines for the additional interfaces, like device de1 (assuming you're using DEC based cards, which is what I use). There is no need to create a device in /dev for those. Edit your /etc/sysconfig file. Look for ifconfig. You'll see a list of the configured interfaces. Add the new interface to the list. On the following lines there are the configuration parameters for the interfaces. Add a line for your new interface. Make sure that the new kernel you just configured is installed and reboot.

You can do this by doing: ifconfig ep0 alias xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 0xffffffff The netmask is important, it won't work without all the bits set. To automate this so the addresses are assigned at boot time, create a file named /etc/start_if.ep0 containing something similar to this: # Configure further virtual interfaces ifconfig ep0 alias 192.1.1.2 netmask 0xffffffff ifconfig ep0 alias 192.1.1.3 netmask 0xffffffff ifconfig ep0 alias 192.1.1.4 netmask 0xffffffff [etc..etc] And make sure the ifconfig_ep0 line in sysconfig reads something like this: ifconfig_ep0="inet 192.1.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00" Notice the netmask, this is where you specify the actual netmask. Now reboot, and the changes should take place. Of course, if you aren't using an ep0 card replace ep0 with your NIC. Your web server will probably need further configuration once this is completed. I'm not sure how CERN handles virtual hosts, but in Apache you can add something like this to httpd.conf: ## xyz's virtual host ServerName xyz.somewhere.out.there This assumes xyz.somewhere.out.there is can be resolved to one of the virtual interface ip addresses. Any corrections are welcome.. I've been up far too long.

I bought the Walnut Creek CD-Rom with FreeBSD 2.1. I made the installation and I discovered that I had problems with my mouse PS/2 and my CD Rom Mitsumi FX 600 ATAPI. A managed to make the installation from the hard disk and I reconfigured the Kernel including the Mouse "psm0 etc etc etc ... ". Now I want to try the X windows system, so I configured the XF86config file. When I ran startx it gets completely blocked the system but when I ran xdm, by some magic thing as soon as I get the login interface I press Ctrl-C and it works, but when I login, I get a nice xterm but without the frame that allows to operate it with the mouse. I do not know how the system looks when it is correctly installed but I am sure it is better that what I have in my screen. I was thinking that my problem was the setup in the .xsession file, then I made a very simple one, because I could not find the one in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit or something like this. Could anybody send my an example of his .xsession file? and perhaps a clue of what's going on in my system, because I think I am going to give up about installing FreeBSD.

Has anyone made this combination work? This monitor entry is derived from one which I used a *long* time ago with a much older version of XF86. I no longer use the XF86 server (a happy Xinside customer). I suggest that you try a generic 1024x768x70 entry. -- Doug Rabson, Microsoft RenderMorphics Ltd.

Heres what I know: If you want to run 2 different sites, with different 'hostnames', and have each base URL (such as http://www.nbcc.org.au) go to a different URL, the way I've seen it done is as follows. You give the machine two IP's, and set up the DNS for www.nbcc.org.au to point to one, and the www.nswcc.org to point to the other IP. The HTTPD has configuration files that let you tell it which IP's should point to which pages. My experience has been with Apache, so I don't know how/if CERN does this. Apache does this pretty well. Only one HTTPD runs, and it sorts out from the incoming connection which page it should go to. Apache's web page tells all about it: http://www.apache.org/docs/virtual-host.html. Again, my experience has been with apache, so I'm not all that sure about CERN. Just wanted to drop my 2 cents. Good luck! Jay K.

It also probes the bus and finds sd0(nca1:0:0) which responds with HP 1.050 GB 3rd 0582 type 0 fixec scsi2 Direct Access 1001 MB (2051460 512 byte sectors) But I also see the following error messages: nca1/0/0 unknown message: 0x1 nca1/0/0 unknown message: 0x1 nca1/0/0 unknown message: 0x19 nca1/0/0 unknown message: 0xf The HP drive is a fast scsi 2 drive whose documentation says to supply termpwr and to terminate using a cable with active termination. This I have done. Unfortunately the controller card documentation (from Adaptec) does not say how its termination can be modified or whether it is active. The controller card has both an internal 50 pin connector for ribbon cable and a DB25 for external devices. I do not know how the card figures out whether it is in the middle or at the end. My question is whether the unknown messages that are found during boot give any clues about what the real problem is and how it might be fixed? If not, is there a controller card that can supply active termination and is configurable (jumpers preferably) and that is known to work with fast scsi 2 drives (and of course freebsd!!!)

"Routing in the Internet", or csomething really close - they have 'em at Barnes'n'Noble and McGraw Hills. Go for RFC - they provide the most details. CISCO has good library of so called CASE STUDIES - they have pretty decent one on OSPF and BGP-OSPF interactions. Proprietory routing protos , such as (E)IGRP can be studied only from CISCO manuals - try to get yourself latest CD from CISCO. High level stuff can also be found at MERIT - those who don't read it end up as Netcom and AOL :) did.

I used to run Linux, decided to run a more non generic UNIX, so I grabbed FreeBSD, I installed the kern developer's set (bin, manpages, dict, kernel source, doc, proflibs, etc.) of FreeBSD - 2.1.5. Everything is fine save for this: I usually (Linux) dialed out to my ISP via minicom, logged in there, then ctrl-q to quit w/o reset, and run this line: pppd /dev/modem 38400 crtscts defaultroute noipdefault That would establish my ppp link with dialnet, now first i'll say my modem's internal and the dip switches are set to COM3 irq 5, I booted my FreeBSD kernel -c and disabled com2, and enabled com 3 with irq (dmesg | grep sci shows sci0 and sci2 being found, sci1 and sci3 disabled) and yes, sci2 is on irq 5. now I do the SAME login procedure with pppd as I did with Linux ,minicom dials fine, I quit w/o reset, and issue the same line, changing /dev/modem to /dev/cuaa2 , heres where the problems occur, syslog says connect ppp0 <--> /dev/cuaa2..then about 5-10 seconds later I get LCP: timeoute sending Config-request and it exits, now I had this problem in Linux , havin my modem on the wrong irq was the problem, I had to setserial it to irq 5 and everything went ok, the only difference was, minicom barely dialed out, and the login promt was all jarbled, in FreeBSD the modem works fine. So I then decided to try the user ppp (iijppp I believe). I compiled the kernel with psuedo-device tun 1 or however it is formatted, and after compiliation ran MAKEDEV tun0 in /dev to create the device, set up some of the config files in /etc/ppp, then typed ppp I set line to /dev/cuaa2, set parity even, set speed 38400, typed show modem to make sure of these settings, then I entered term mode: at OK atdtphone-number * it dials here, rings, connects * CONNECT 144000 * now the login prompt is shot at me all jarbled and weird * jfkdasdfaskxfj;dsjfkldasddjfklas;jfkla;sjfaogin: username fjkldsafjdslkafjdls;ajfkl;asdjfklas;jfkldjklsa;jfasj;saword: password * now here it stops, waits 25 seconds, then tells me * NO CARRIER I know you probably get problems like this daily, but I would appreciate your help with this, as I like FreeBSD much more than Linux, and would love to continue using it, if you need anymore info from me, mail me!

I am able to get 10 simultaneous connection on it, but when I try to connect on the 11th port I don't get login prompt. If there are less than 10 connection then I get login prompt on all the boca ports. I saw similar posting in the archive but no answers. I am attaching similar posting too. Please help. Thanks, Tushar tushar@ecpi.com First posting on the same subject: ------------------------------------ I am using SNAP2.1.0-951005. When I turn a getty on my modem (ttyd0), I can't use the callout device to grab the /dev/cuaa0 device. Without getty running everything works fine. My modem is not asserting the carrier line, but looking at a ps -alx shows that the getty is waiting on ttyin rather than siodcd. I have an identical machine running 1.1.5.1R just fine with identical (even identical initial and lock-state device settings) modem/hardware setup. Am I forgetting something really dumb, or is the problem in the sio driver/getty? Thanks, Second posting on the same subject: ---------------------------------- Has anyone heard of FreeBSD"s getty's locking up before? I seem to be having a problem with them lately. I am running a Boca Board with 12 Boca modems installed, and every so often when you call in there will be no login, no banner, no anything. I know the modems are locked, because not only do they answer, but they also cannot be fixed by restarting them. Everytime this happens the only choice I have is to reboot the machine. Anyone have any suggestions of where to start looking?

(After several weeks of no problems, the machine went down on a kernel panic. It rebooted fine, went through the full boot sequence, printed the login prompt to the console,and immediately rebooted. The boot sequence completed, at which time the machine rebooted itself. This happened ~20 times.) (running FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE #0 - the second, good release, P100, IDE, 16M, kernel.GENERIC) After the initial kernel panic, the machine rebooted itself immediately after completing the boot sequence.

I am trying to install from the Walnut Creek CD, 2.1 Release. When I am in DOS I am able to access, use, see all SCSI devices. ALL MY DISKS and CD are SCSI. I am able to sccessfully boot from either a floppy or from the CD, i.e. setting the directory to the CD-ROM and typing "install". However once I get into the install menus if I try the installation I get the message that there are no disks. If I go into the install options and select the installation media I am told there is no CD-ROM and there are no other disks ( I tried installing from a DOS Partition ). I did notice that during the boot up, none of the adaptec devices drivers are found, not even the one for the 2940 (I believe it is ahc0). I noticed at the end of the boot up I get a bunch of messages when the PCI bus is being checked. One message is: pci0:19 Adaptec device=0x6078 class=storage (scsi) [no device assigned] All SCSI devices are properly terminated. The SCSI terminator control jumper onthe mother board is set to "always on". Temination through the BIOS is also enabled. Boot SCSI id is 0, another internal SCSI has ID 1, the CD-ROM is ID 2. What can I do? DO I need to change the setup in the BIOS? Disable teh built in BIOS all together? I have tried everything I can think of including multiple attempts at UserCOnfigured installs... All with no success. I have run out of ideas and am close to giving up completely....

Thank you for your time. -- jf From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 13 23:49:48 1996 Return-Path: owner-questions Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id XAA11043 for questions-outgoing; Tue, 13 Aug 1996 23:49:48 -0700 (PDT) Received: from csd.cs.technion.ac.il (csd.cs.technion.ac.il [132.68.32.8]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id XAA11034 for ; Tue, 13 Aug 1996 23:49:42 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from nadav@localhost) by csd.cs.technion.ac.il (8.6.11/8.6.10) id JAA03063; Wed, 14 Aug 1996 09:49:05 +0300 Date: Wed, 14 Aug 1996 09:49:05 +0300 (IDT) From: Nadav Eiron X-Sender: nadav@csd To: Kenny Hill cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: 1st installing freebsd and 2nd installiing ms-dos In-Reply-To: <3210CDDB.56C8@surfsouth.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk On Tue, 13 Aug 1996, Kenny Hill wrote: > I would like to know if it is possible for me to install freebsd on my > system first, and then install ms-dos on the same hard disk.

If you decide to first install FreeBSD anyhow, you'll need to install the boot manager again after installing DOS (as it will blow up your boot record). To do that, look in the tools subdirectory on the CDROM (after installing DOS). It is easier, though, to first install DOS.

It's working pretty well (a couple of packages have failed, but no big deal). I'm hoping my subscription CD-Rom's come soon. But I have one comment. It still says congradulations instead of of congratulations. I noticed it in 2.1R and figured that it'd get caught in the next release. This really should be fixed, as trivial as it.

Everything went very smoothly and the system is up and running just fine. During installation, I chose to install the standard boot manager (the default choice). Now, when I reset the machine and get the two choices F1 DOS F2 BSD hitting F2 doesn't work. I just get the prompt again. If I select F1, it works fine. I installed osbs135 off the CD to see if it would work, but it doesn't either. When I select BSD as the boot partition, it says "No operating system". I went through the initial part of the installation procedure again, not changing the partition layout or anything, but selecting the standard boot manager again, in the hope it would stamp the MBR with good info, but it didn't. I must boot from the floppy each time. Does anybody know how to get FreeBSD booting off the hard disk via a boot manager?

The new box is an AMD 5x86-P75 133Mhz on a GA5486AL motherboard. I am attempting to install onto a Seagate IDE HD that is dedicated to FreeBSD. I have attempted to install via FTP (both from ftp.cdrom.com and from a mirror on my site), as well as via NFS (from above mentioned mirror). All of them have failed with either gunzip, cpio, or tar (seems to be different each time) exiting on signal 11 during the extraction of one or more of the distributions. I suspected that it might be a problem with my boot floppy, until i remade the boot floppy 3 times without success. Any help is very much appreciated, as I am under some pressure to get this machine up and running as soon as possible. Does FreeBSD have a problem running on the AMD CPU? Are there any specific CMOS setting that I should check?

The kernel detects it (as the included device probe message shows) and he is able to mount the device at mount point /cdrom. However, copying files from the CDROM causes the keyboard/system to lock and an unclean reboot to be necessary. We were wondering if this is a documented bug with this CDROM. If so, is there a fix which is compatible with the FreeBSD 2.1.0 kernel sources? Also, there is an interesting message in the device probe and we wonder if it's related.

I am a FreeBSD 2.1 user. I'm kind of a newbie in this subject, because I've been using it for one year. I have a couple questions to ask: 1 - When trying to extract something using the command TAR I keep getting a message like "Could not write to device /dev/rst0. Device not available". Why do I receive this!? This is when I am root, because when I'm a simple user I receive: "Permition denied" in the same device. I use: tar -x 2 - I own three computers and I am trying to connect them in a network using the software provided together with the three network cards I own: NE200 compatible, DEC DC21040 and LE8029R processor based PCI cards. The problem: On the computer wich has the NE2000, no problem: I can even connect to the other computer when they are using using Win95 TCP/IP protocol. On the PC wich uses the LE8029R card, it simply does not recognize ANY network card. In the documentaion that card is not supported (at least not mentioned). Also when I boot, I get that message wich tells me to warn SOMEONE (haven't written his name :). Do you need some info to make it supported on the system? I am a programmer but can't manage to make it work in BSD yet... On the DC21040 based one, the FreeBSD simply does not boot. When I remove the card, everything ok! Could you please be so kind to help me with these matters? Or at least indicate or forward this message to someone who will help me? Thank you very much and thank's a lot to keep supporting this EXCELLENT OS.

Frankly, though, I have to express some irritation. I'm not MS booster. I despise the contortions and decorations that MS-Windows laughingly calls an "interface" and I'm regularly frustrated by it's "automation hostile" nature. I'm deeply concerned about the number of organizations and individuals that have locked their data -- their information, assets -- thier very business survival into Microsoft's proprietary data formats; standardizing on servitude and building a house of cards from the Microsoft deck (a deck where MS regularly "upgrades" the ace and forces a complete shuffle of all the applications levels that were balanced on it). I am convinced that many of the rumors about Microsoft coercion tactics and monopolistic practices are only the barest tip of the iceberg on the horizon. However, I cannot make out Gates to be some sort of "arch-villain." We've got much bigger problems in the world than Gates, or Microsoft -- problems that make the entire software industry shrink to a microscopic point. Bill Gates has almost certainly never locked up a couple of hundred Thai women in a slave labor camp in L.A. It is inconcievable that he's ever parked a truck bomb in an office building and set it off (Trade Center and Oklahoma City Federal Building). He isn't part of the any of the organization that commited assaninations and atrocities at Ruby Ridge, Waco, and in Philadelphia (among several others). I doubt he had Flight 800 shot out of the sky. He isn 't raping the economy by bailing out a bunch of failing S&L 's while leaving incompetant directorships to loot them. He doesn't seem to be murdering doctors and/or assualting pregnant in the name of "life." He's doesn't seem to advocate that we need to maintain an unemployment rate in excess of 7% to "protect" the poor industrialist from rising labor costs. In fact I doubt that he contribute a dime or a breath to the recent national debacle over minimum wage (since I doubt that anyone at Microsoft or any of Microsoft's suppliers is affected by it). He doesn't take a deposit of $1000 dollars and, through the magic of fractional interest banking loan out $6000 to earn $600 while only paying back $50 to his investor (standard CD transaction). He doesn't run divisions offshore to export jobs to underpaid undertrained people in regions where an industrial disaster like Bhopal can kill people by thousands without any criminal nor any significant civil repercusssions. I don't think he funded running guns to covert military operations in South America using agents that conveniently supplemented the arrangement by flying drugs back I'm pretty sure he hasn't propped up any despotic regimes just to have them practice genocide against others within thier borders (Iran). Is he proposing to Congress, and the American people that the money extracted from every working American for the last half a century "isn't enough" and that we should prepare ourselves for the time when our government will drop their end of the "social security" contract? Is he pissing and moaning about the money going to "welfare mothers" while spending orders of magnitude more on "welfare corporations?" Has Microsoft gone to the U.S. Government, hat in hand, begging? Did Chrysler ever pay us (you and me) back? Did he lock any workers in a factory, to prevent them from stealing a few chickens -- only to have many of them die in a fire -- unable to escape through the fire escapes that were chained shut? I've heard that he's a bit of a tightwad -- but has he bounced any checks recently? ... Even if he did, we certainly we didn't elect him to make our laws and oversee our federal budget. He isn't guilty of the hypocrisy that he can blatantly kite hundreds of checks, interest free on a whim where "we the people" would have certainly been jailed for fraud. (I had a friend who was almost convicted of fraud for kiting checks -- wrong I agree; but she was doing it to feed herself and hunt for work. She made full restitution with interest. Did any of our "exemplary" lawmakers pay their bills?) If you're looking for villains -- if you want to speak out against atrocities, crimes and injustice go pick up a newspaper -- or save a tree and read some news on Clarinet.

I look forward to > your timely reply. Thank you. I probably shouldn't post this to the whole list -- it really doesn't have much to do with FreeBSD. But it is so frustrating to see someone express such hostility to a relatively harmless nerd while ignoring the rest of the world. It's really depressing that so many people are willing to participate in sideshows like this, or like the O.J. "trial of the century," or William Kennedy Smith Trial, or any of the petty scandals (frankly I don't care what sorts of imaginary friends the first lady talks to, or which astrologer one of her predecessors consulted, or who the President is sleeping with, or how often a former president was napping). It's even more depressing that the people who buy tabloids are among the diminishing portion of the populace that bother to read anything at all. Even Bill Gates makes me a bit sad. I wonder what drives someone to be such a control freak and so profit- driven that *billions* of dollars and dominance of over 70% of an industry for over a decade still isn't enough. I've seen him speak in person several times over the last few years -- and frankly he doesn't seem happy. I suppose it's inevitable that the richest "self-made" billionaire would have to that insecure since any sane person would "get a life" after making the first few million dollars and seeing his name become a household word. Peter Norton is my hero. I've met him only once (though I worked for his company for a few years). Now there's a man who seems genuinely *happy*. I'll take what's behind door number two, Monty. > Kenneth Gardner > Stopgates All, Please direct any flames or follow-ups to me alone. I'll apologize in advance for posting this as it is off-topic.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk We have two FreeBSD 2.1.5 machines, both with SCSI controllers, and two different DAT tape drives, and we can't get any of the machines to run in a stable manner. SCSI controllers AHA2842 ahc0: at 0x1c00-0x1cff irq 11 AHA1522 aic0 at 0x140-0x15f irq 12 on isa AHA1522 aic0 at 0x340-0x35f irq 11 on isa SCSI DAT drives ARCHIVE Python 28388-XXX 4.98" type 1 removable SCSI 2 WangDAT Model 3200 02.2" type 1 removable SCSI 2 We have tried both DAT drives on both controllers. Both DAT drives are external, and we've tried different terminators, different cables, etc. The AHA2842 has an internal HD, so isn't terminated when we try this, and the AHA1522 is for the tape drive only, so is terminated. In the case of the AHA2842, backing up causes spontaneous reboots. In the case of the 1522, it causes the machine to hang. I can ping it or switch vt's, but nothing else. The 2842 is only used on one machine, a 486DX4/120 w/VLB. The 1542 has been tried in a P90/PCI and a 386DX/ISA, with the same results.

I will re send this question because I did not get an answer yet!! anybody here would like to help me...i'm so desperate to have a a reply!! Thank you again and more power to all subscriber here!! Greetings!! I have just installed the MAC PPP Config in Macintosh Power PC. We've gone the whole process until the part when the two modems have successfully handshaked. The installation procedure tells that the authentication window should come up, but instead the computer stops responding for several minutes.However the dial window shows NETWORK after ESTABLISHMENT phase.which according to the installation manual should come up after the authentication.And then after awhile the status showed LINK DEAD. that means theres no carrier or connection at all. What could be the problem..Is this a compatibility issue? as far as i know the network phase means that you are already connected. Waiting for your response!! Thank you very much in advance Roy P.

I've got mine arranged like this: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0a 34111 19395 11987 62% / mfs:19 15583 1 15270 0% /tmp /dev/sd0s4e 629702 441910 137415 76% /files /dev/sd0s3e 497834 405052 52955 88% /usr /dev/wd0s2e 82191 40289 35326 53% /usr/X11R6 procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc with my fstab: /dev/wd0a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/sd0s2b /tmp mfs rw,-s=32000,-i=10240,-m=2 0 0 /dev/sd0s4e /files ufs rw 1 1 /dev/sd0s3e /usr ufs rw 1 2 /dev/wd0s2e /usr/X11R6 ufs rw 1 2 /dev/sd0s2b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sd0s4b none swap sw 0 0 proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 /dev/cd0a /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 and it seems to work just fine (I don't claim that it is the most optimal setup, but it seems fine to me). It just so happens that I put my X11 stuff back on my IDE drive just because I had a nicely sized place for it, but you don't need to. I figure it's a lot easier in the long run to just put my boot partition on the drive that DOS/BIOS/whatever will try to boot from.

But, latter, trying to recompile the kernel because of the mouse I needed sources. I tried to use /stand/sysinstall selecting custom installation and there only kernel sources. Because my CD-ROM is not "BSD compatible" (it is a version of Creative Labs), I tried to install sources as I dir for the system itself via the dos partition, copying before the ssys*.* files to c:\freebsd\src IN THE SAME WAY I did the installation of the system, but it did not worked (file ssys.aa not found). I repeated the process using the directory c:\freebsd\dist\src, then again by using floppies, but always the same. May you help me how to install sources without doing the reinstallation of all from the beginning ? Thank you.

If you whant to install the FreeBSD, go to the floppies directory and get the boot image from there. There are some readme instructions on the root directory of the CD.

To test it, enter the dumb terminal mode, login into the BSD, and do a cat /etc/termcap. The screen should not "scambrle" (sorry for my english). 5) setup pppd in /etc/ppp/options like this: crtscts mtu 296 6) and if it is a modem, modem 7) at the user prompt (sh or bash) enter: /usr/sbin/pppd passive xx.xx.xx:yy.yy.yy where xx.xx.xx.xx and yy.yy.yy.yy are the ip addres of the bsd and the mac. 8) Make shure the nets xx and yy are not on the same network. ex: 200.10.22.1 for xx and 200.10.21.12 for yy and netmask 0xffffff00 or: 200.10.22.1 for xx and 200.10.22.17 for yy and netmask 0xfffffff0 9) Once the command pppd is started, you have 30 seconds to stablish the other ppp end connection. 10) Setup the mac ppp as to accept all the options BSD sends. Should work, Hope this will help. Sergio Lenzi. Unix consult.

No can do!!! I don't have any intimate knowledge of the implementation of IP in FreeBSD, but the first (well, O.K. among the first) thing I learned about IP is that a machine MUST have at most one interface on an IP network. That's part of the reason subnetting was invented! I can't imagine why you'd like two cards on the same ethernet cable, but if you really do, give one of them a netmask of 255.255.255.255. This would cause it to be used just to receive packets for its address (I think it will never transmit.

It was complaining about "Input/output error", and "Can't init A:". After reading all the documentation I could find, I tried editing my mtools.conf file, and changed the device name to /dev/fd0.1440 and it began to work. In order to make it work for different capacity floppies I have added another description for A: which specifies /dev/fd0.720 as the device. This seems to work now, although I get errors (which the man page for mtools says I can safely ignore) for each device specification which is not applicable. My question is: Did I do the right thing? If so, you might want to update the documentation to indicate that this file may need to be edited. It seems that the mtools.conf (it is in /usr/local/etc on my system) is a new feature of mtools-3.0, as I can't find it on a system running the version included with the FreeBSD 2.1 packages.

Get a printer that can tell you how much paper it uses, and attach it via a serial line or a network connection. Nearly all PostScript printers support this notion. Other makes and models do as well (networked Imagen laser printers, for example). Modify the filters for these printers to get the page usage after they print each job and have them log accounting information based on that value only.

There is also a card by Rockwell Network Systems (RNS 2340). If only the ZNYX 314 is supported, we could go with the 314 (or 315) cards.

I assume it will be added to the ports collection, but you can also get the Binary distribution for BSD machines directly from the Netscape site. Once the paths are all set up, it should work great.

Problem: the ROM format and checksum differs from card to card. This is true for normal cards and especially for multiport cards. A Multiport card just has ONE ROM for the first 21X40 controller ... it's cheaper and requires less space than 4 cards. - the right setting of the 21X40 general purpose register The general purpose register controls bidirectional I/O pins. With these pins one can select the media (for example). Therefore, I bet the EM400 has to have another media select than the EM440. So - the driver is indeed very similar as far as concerning buffer management, interrupt handling and so on. For the initialisation of the card you have to know the exact specifications of the card or you have to take a try to get the ROM format and media select yourself. Maybe I could set up a list if there are some guys interested - I've been looking for this list myself.....

This is because vendors all sorts of evil hacks and follow accepted practices. So my driver has to identify the card and properly set things up. For instance, some cards tie all the devices to INTA of the "master" card and only have one PROM.

The CGI script isn't sending out correctly formatted HTTP headers. *Usually* this happens because an error occurs in the script and the error message is being sent to apache where it is expecting HTTP headers. It could also be that the script is slightly braindead and is actually sending out incorrectly formatted headers--in that case, you would need to make a wrapper around it or edit the source to make it work. Hint: Try executing the CGI script from a shell. This will show you what the output is. If you see something other than HTTP headers and HTML, you'll know what the problem is.

Yes -- FBSD wouldn't recognise the IDE CD drive. I don't use the DOS partition at all; it's existence was purely to allow installation of FBSD, which amounts to wasted space once the installation is complete.

VFAT support is progressing, but is still on the way. Microsoft supplies a utility on the Win95 CD which will back up long filenames separately. The idea is that you can then back up everything else with tools that understand only 8.3 names. I think backing up through the msdosfs would be asking for trouble, though. -- Robert Nordier From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 15 17:33:50 1996 Return-Path: owner-questions Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id RAA14441 for questions-outgoing; Thu, 15 Aug 1996 17:33:50 -0700 (PDT) Received: from panix.com (panix.com [198.7.0.2]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id RAA14436 for ; Thu, 15 Aug 1996 17:33:47 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from jbarrm@localhost) by panix.com (8.7.5/8.7/PanixU1.3) id UAA16757; Thu, 15 Aug 1996 20:33:36 -0400 (EDT) Date: Thu, 15 Aug 1996 20:33:36 -0400 (EDT) From: Barry Masterson To: Bill Harrison cc: FreeBSD Subject: Re: ftp log In-Reply-To: <199608151517.LAA20492@mis.ashrae.org> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk On Thu, 15 Aug 1996, Bill Harrison wrote: > Is there any trick to geting the log for anonymous ftp to work- > > My inetd.conf has a -l flag for the ftpd daemon??? > > Do I need something in syslog.conf??? > As I remember it, you have to create an ordinary file called 'ftpd' in /var/log/, owned by root, group bin.

The DC21041 is a 10mbps chip, and DEC uses it on the DE450 and in most of the built-in ethernets they have (like on the Multia or the Prioris servers). All of those cards are supported by FreeBSD's de driver (I have them all working). Note that if you want to use the 10/100 card at 10mbps, you'll need to add "-link2" to the ifconfig line for it, as there is a bug with the speed/media detection code of the de driver.

I have been using FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE at home since last January. I have never had troubles with floppy disks until recently, but I use them rather scarcely. The question is that some days ago I got a lot of error messages on the console when messing with the floppy drive. The message sounds like: fdc0: input ready timeout. I get a lot of them when formatting, and also when doing dd from/to the floppy device. I tell you I haven't seen this behaviour until recently. I wonder whether it is related or not with the new motherboard I have since last June or so: before that, I had a 486-DX2 at 66MHz, with VLB and never got even an error msg from the fdc driver, but a couple of months ago I replaced it with a Pentium motherboard (P-100, Triton chipset). The floppy cable is connected on the socket in MB. BTW, I have replaced the drive cable in order to discard a problem with it, but no luck. The configuration file reads so (unrelated stuff omitted): ... cpu "I586_CPU" ... controller isa0 ... controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 vector fdintr disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0 disk fd1 at fdc0 drive 1 tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 2 # BTW, I don't need this! ... # Main PCI bus device controller pci0 Please note I have omitted the FDSEEKWAIT option, and have included ft0, that is of no value for me. Also, it seems that fd0, an old 5.25" HD drive has passed away recently, since it looks broken even for MS-doze, and is *still* connected, waiting to be replaced. My predicaments have to do with fd1, a 3.5" drive that performs fine in msdos. So, please any hint will be welcome. Answers such as 'your FD controller in the MB is broken' should be avoided :) TIA Jesus A. Mora amora@obelix.cica.es PS: BTW, I have a S3 SuperVGA card plugged into one of the PCI slots.

Here is what appears on screen during the boot: pci0:11: vendor=0x10ec, device=0x8029, class=network (ethernet) [no driver assigned] map(10): io(e000) The card uses a Realtek Semi-Conductor Co., Ltd. RTL8029 chipset, and it usually works as NE2000-compatible card -- at least I could make it work this way under Win 95 (but that's not a great reference ). When I use the diagnostics diskette that came with the card, I can see the following configuration: I/O Base = E000H Interrupt = 10 Full-duplex = Enabled This is the HW configuration I'm using: - Mainboard ASUS P/I-P55T2P4 with a Pentium-100 CPU and 512KB cache - 32MB RAM (60ns) - Adaptec AHA-2940 PCI SCSI-2 adapter (BIOS v. 1.21) - IBM DORS-32160 S82C 2GB SCSI hard-disk drive - Pioneer DR-124X 1.01 4X SCSI CD-ROM drive - FDD controller (on the mainboard) - 2x serial, 1x parallel ports (on the mainboard) Apart the network card, everything seems to be working just fine! As an interim solution, I switched to an old NE2000-compatible ISA card and that works perfectly as ed0. I've been using Linux for several years now, and this is the first time I install FreeBSD on a PC, and I'm really impressed by it. I'll use this machine as an Internet gateway server for my visually-impaired customers and I think I've made the right decision regarding the OS!

You'll need to configure your machine with multiple IP addresses (a.k.a. ifconfig aliases) like so: ifconfig de0 192.116.93.20 netmask 255.255.255.255 alias ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *very* important. You'll also need to configure your DNS accordingly (I use A records, not CNAME records, for the additional names). Then look at your www server docs (Apache's are at http://www.apache.org) to see how to glue it all together. At least with Apache, there are two ways of doing it, the simpler one (using one server and one configuration file with VirtualHost entries) takes no more than 5 minutes to configure (adding a couple of lines to a configuration file and restarting the server).

I am supposed to study 4.3 BSD and would like to know if FreeBSD is anything like it, or if buying it will just screw things up for me. Would it run on my system: AST 6066d 486DX2, 32Mb RAM, 1280 & 270 Mb Hdd on a Promise EIDE Max card, Soundblaster 16, Sony ATAPI CD player and a cirrus logic graphics card built in on the motherboard. How much space would it take? No network. I want X , emacs and do system programming in c,c++. I could give it the whole 270 Mb Hdd, Would that be enough or does it need more? I have seen a little of FreeBSD once and got interested, but I must know more before I decide to buy it, It looked good though. Keep up the good work. Hope it's not to much trouble for you.

These things are happening under 2.1.0-RELEASE and two modems by the same manufacturer. (although different speeds 14.4 and 28.8). 1) When dialled in using a terminal program to access a shell, if a lot of text is written to the screen (eg it scrolls and scrolls and ...), then after a while the transfer just stops - and the only recovery is to hang up and dial in again (you get used to doing | more after a while). 2) Z-Modem transfers regularly have bad packets (in fact every 4K), which really kills the transfer rate (I was getting 400 bytes/sec on a 14.4K modem - peak is about 1200 bytes/sec). The really strange thing is that the lockup doesn't happen when doing a binary download or using ppp, only with shells (which makes me think that it could be my terminal program). Oh yes the remote (ie on the server) is on a PABX, however the phone call is on the same exchange (at least I hope so since they share the first two number in the phone number, but still --this bit removed for political reasons---). Thanks for any insight you can shed on this (I still think its the telephone network though) Iain. ---- Iain Templeton: Sometime Claremont College Unix administrator Email: iain@ugh.net.au ---- From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 16 08:25:13 1996 Return-Path: owner-questions Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id IAA09993 for questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 08:25:13 -0700 (PDT) Received: from tellab5.lisle.tellabs.com (tellab5.lisle.tellabs.com [138.111.243.28]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id IAA09986 for ; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 08:25:09 -0700 (PDT) From: mikebo@tellabs.com Received: from sunc210.tellabs.com by tellab5.lisle.tellabs.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #4) id m0urQlB-0004fnC; Fri, 16 Aug 96 10:24 CDT Received: by sunc210.tellabs.com (SMI-8.6/1.9) id KAA04980; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 10:23:43 -0500 Message-Id: <199608161523.KAA04980@sunc210.tellabs.com> Subject: 2.1.5R - Help loading AST laptop via 3c589 PCCARD To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Fri, 16 Aug 1996 10:23:42 -0500 (CDT) Cc: mikebo (Mike Borowiec) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Help - I've inherited an AST PowerExec 486/33 SL laptop with an old 3COM 3c589 PCCARD modem. No matter what I do, I can't get the FreeBSD kernel to find the card. The 3COM setup programs report that the PCCARD is setup on IRQ 3, IO 0x300, and that there is no shared memory area. In the kernel -c setup, I configure the zp0 device to these parameters, leaving the shared memory area set to 0xd8000 (even though the 3COM utitity says there is none). I've reduced the probed devices to: floppy controller, wd0, sc0, sio0, lpt0 and zp0. I can't tell whether or not the kernel actually finds zp0, as the kernel messages are wiped off the screen by the install menu before I can get a chance to read the output! (Wouldn't it be cool to be able to probe each device manually, or at least SAVE the output screen so one could refer to it? Maybe there's a way to do this of which I'm not aware?). Anyway, when I get down to selecting a network device to select from NFS install, zp0 is not one of the available devices... This is the first clue I have that the kernel may not be able to see this device... Has anyone successfully installed on this laptop or with this enet card?

But the question is, why do you want to route with a workstation? If that's all you've got, then that's what you have to do.

'cause we're using FreeBSD machines as dialup servers for a couple of people, and they have subnets at home. So we're trying to support [home LAN]---[fbsd host] | / [dialup] / | [home LAN]---[fbsd host]----/ISDN/-----[fbsd server]----[work LAN] and other small connection options. We're only supporting two people, both of whom already have FBSD boxes at home, via an already-sited FBSD server at work. Seemed the easiest thing to do... :-) Thanks, Mike From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 16 11:40:59 1996 Return-Path: owner-questions Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id LAA06168 for questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 11:40:59 -0700 (PDT) Received: from solar.os.com (craigs@solar.os.com [199.232.136.65]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id LAA06163 for ; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 11:40:56 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from craigs@localhost) by solar.os.com (8.7/8.7.0) id OAA00394; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 14:40:25 -0400 Date: Fri, 16 Aug 1996 14:40:24 -0400 From: Craig Shrimpton Subject: Re: Routed supports variable-length netmasks?

If I understand your question, you need to add some local nameserver hosts in your /etc/resolv.conf file. Try making your nameserver look like this: ------- domain alaska.edu nameserver 137.229.10.39 nameserver 192.220.250.1 nameserver 137.229.12.41 nameserver 192.220.251.1 ------- Your /etc/hosts should at least have the following in it: ------ 127.0.0.1 localhost 137.229.18.1 aurora.alaska.edu aurora ------ Your /etc/sysconfig should have "hostname=aurora.alaska.edu" in it.

I've got a FreeBSD box at my provider's site which I dial into from my SunOS box at home, to connect my small home-net; no stand-alone routers. I've been trying to coerce pppd into installing the default route using the /etc/ppp/ip-up facility, but although the pppd runs ip-up with effective UID root, if ip-up is a script, FreeBSD squashes the root privs (that, or pppd uses getuid() rather than geteuid(), still looking). I guess I could use a SUID perl script or some C code but this seems too simple to justify that... I did bring gated up on the FreeBSD box, and got a config written (first time user!) which seems to establish the /28 route when I ppp in, and tear it down when I disconnect. Still have to do the same on the SunOS side at home. The docs seem to indicate it does VLSMs fine, with other RiPv2 routers. Guess I'll find out :-) Thanks.

You don't want a default route installed by the ppp daemon on the SERVER machine - only on the client side. Your server needs to have a default route out its Ethernet interface, *NOT* its PPP interface!

I'm on 2.1.5-RELEASE and now have gated running, with a first attempt at a config file -- hairy. It seems to install and remove the /28 route upon connect/disconnect.

I need an inexpensive Disk Drive Depot/ CSC (divisions of the same company) offers an Archive 16Gb multi-tape 4mm DAT unit (with autochanger) for about $395 (internal) -- add about ~100 to put that into an external case. They also have 5.25" MO (magneto optical) drives (external 300Mb per side, "flippy") and 1G for less than $500 and CD-ROM burners for less than $600 (internal). Pick your poison. I don't have CSC's number handy (they do all the mail order) but DDD is at 408-738-3895. If you're in the bay area there are places where you can used drives even cheaper -- but these are all new or refurbished.

I've sent a followup to the hackers list. Basically, route is already setuid root, so its effective UID is always 0. This is needed in order to open the routing socket. To protect unprivileged people from manipulating routes (you could also want to use it for ``route get'' only!), it checks for real UID 0. > I guess I could use a SUID perl script or some C code but > this seems too simple to justify that... I'm using suidperl. However, su root -c '/sbin/route add ...' should also do the trick. Since the script runs with effective UID 0, it should be allowed to `su' without a password. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 16 14:33:44 1996 Return-Path: owner-questions Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id OAA19889 for questions-outgoing; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 14:33:44 -0700 (PDT) Received: from horton.iaces.com ([204.147.87.98]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id OAA19876 for ; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 14:33:37 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from proot@localhost) by horton.iaces.com (8.6.12/8.6.12) id QAA03717; Fri, 16 Aug 1996 16:33:21 -0500 From: "Paul T.

It looks like you are experiencing problems associated with a large number of errors (or noise) on your telephone line. I would suggest that you try to remove the PABX system from the equation as my suspicion is that this is the source of your problems. I have dealt with many dial-up clients trying to connect to the university where I work, and have consistently seen problems where a PABX is involved. The PABX system we use here is not guaranteed for data (modem) connections greater than 2400 baud and this seems to be the case for many other systems as well judging by the number of calls I have dealt with relating to this problem.

I just downloaded the McAfee Viruscan software for FreeBSD and watched in horror how it detected the SYSLOG virus on a number of files on my system. Even worse, it claimed it had 'no remover available'. This happend mostly on gzipped man pages, but there were a few source code, object (.o) and executable files reported as well. A couple of weeks ago I had a hard time doing a 'make world' after downloading the DES code from ftp.freebsd.org. It kept aborting at different places, and always for no reason, for example would complain about not finding a file that was actually present where it was supposed to. It never completed successfully because after 3 days and 15+ attempts, I gave up. Now this virus alert gives me a possible explanation for the phenomenon. Can I trust the FreeBSD version of McAfee Viruscan, or are these reports incorrect? I do trust the DOS, Windows and NT versions. How safe is FreeBSD from viruses? If in fact my system is infected, how do I clean files for which McAfee has no remover available? Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

The 7860 is just an Ultra version of the 7850 controller. Both the 7850 and the 7850 are *not* totally compatible with the aha2940 (7870/7880) adapters. Where the 7870 and 7880-based adapters have 15 internal SCBS, the 7850 and 7860 have only 3 SCBs.

I just finished upgrading 3 of my machines to 2.1.5-Release. I put together a fourth one out of some spare parts. It's an early 486 with a single channel IDE controller. I wanted to use up a couple small IDE drives I had but had to leave one out so I could install from an ATAPI CD. I set up the first drive and installed the intended distrubutions to the disk. I then removed the CD and installed the 2nd hard disk. I was trying to follow the instructions in the FAQ about adding a 2nd disk. I got messages that the required devices didn't exist. Upon examining the the contents of the /dev directory, I found the all the devices for wd0, but several for wd1 were missing. Anyway I went to work with MAKEDEV and totally hosed the installation. Now I can only boot to single user mode ?? and read only. The required devices for wd0 are now missing. Can I possibly recover from this one without re-installing the whole thing???

At least it does under Linux if I configure the interface as follows (on Linux 2.0.7): /sbin/ifconfig eth0:0 x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.192 broadcast 194.64.170.63 /sbin/route add -host 194.64.170.41 dev eth0:0 Unfortunatly, I can't get this IP aliasing to work under FreeBSD. If I try to set an alias w/ FreeBSD and specify a netmask other than 0xffffffff, I get: # ifconfig de0 194.64.170.16 alias netmask 0xffffffc0 ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists # ifconfig de0 194.64.170.16 alias netmask 0xffffffff works fine, but then a named won't respond on that interface.

Obviously, you need the X libraries & include files to compile this part of the code. One way around this is to do a `make clean extract', and then go into the work/fwtk-1.3 (?) directory and edit the Makefile to disable the X11 gateway. Then cd ../.. and complete the make. Gary P.S.

I'd guess that /home and /usr are not sub-directories of /; that's why the mount isn't suceeding. The "-alldirs" means all directories *within* the filesystem in field 1. You need something like / -alldirs wooster /usr -alldirs wooster /home -alldirs wooster You don't need the "-alldirs" in this case, if you don't want "wooster" to mount directories below the roots of each filesystem.

Unfortunateley for me they forgot to send the manual. CyberTouch is an ISP in Toronto, Canada. I spent about an hour on Friday speaking to the tech support department at CDROM.COM and he (Michael) tried very hard to fix the problem. He suggested that I send this letter to you with regards to the following problem. I have installed FreeBSD 2.1.5 and can even get XWindows running. The problem is, that somewhere I entered server4.cybertouch.com and this is what you see when booting up the machine. The rest of the network is running Windows NT 3.51. If I try to send mail, FTP or anything which is not local to the machine (206.186.50.133) the machine comes back saying something like "can't resolve hostname" or "can't connect to .... How do I fix it so that I can have this machine (64 megs ram, 4.3 GiG h/d, 3com ethernet card, ethernet to the Internet) to act as a www server and a ftp server? If I can get it up to acknowledge that it is part of the network then people can have shell accounts as well, CyberTouch will be able to be a mirror for FreeBSD if I am allowed to by either useing the cdroms in our cdrom server or by ftp to this machine. I am sure if you (whom ever reads this) goes http://206.186.50.133 you won't get the response from the machine which is a full BSD operating machine. NO DOS partion, just fully dedicated to FreeBSD. How do I get it to be able to use Elm or Pine??? Please help me out as I am stuck and can't really afford to sit for hours on end talking on the phone to California from Toronto, Canada. As I mentioned before, I am willing to be a mirror for FreeBSD, we are connected to the Internet via Ethernet to a T-3 and 3 T-1's which make for an excellent high speed connection. I just need some help as I have almost no experience with Unix. Thankyou ever so much for your time in reading this and the possiblity of you valuble help.

Can you Help Me? You're server needs to know that .htm is included in the text/html mime type, text/plain is the the typical default mime type so unknown extensions such as htm will get treated as text/plain unless you explicitly set it otherwise. Add it with the AddType directive (NCSA/Apache anyway) or edit you mime.types file (again, NCSA/Apache) -- non-Apache/NCSA servers support this as well but the method of configuring it will vary. > > > Ian Kallen ian@gamespot.com Director of Technology & Web Administration http://www.gamespot.com
