This is probably better suited for freebsd-questions, so I'm redirecting it there in case someone there has additional input. I don't know of any program that will do that, but it's not that difficult a problem, so I'd bet that one either exists or could be fairly easily written. You might want to check some site that lists Linux software, and see if there's something like what you're looking for. Linux's user base is larger, so software targeted at a special need like yours tends to appear for it first, but will probably be easy to port to FreeBSD. If you want to try a very simple solution for correcting most of your common spelling mistakes, why not pipe your text through a sed script that does a search-and-replace on them? For example, to replace all occurences of the word "teh" in infile with "the" and put the result in outfile: sed "s/[[:<:]]teh[[:>:]]/the/g" < infile > outfile -- Brian Buchanan brian@smarter.than.nu brian@CSUA.Berkeley.EDU "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin, 1759 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 27 01:41:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA27821 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 27 Dec 1998 01:41:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from send1e.yahoomail.com (send1e.yahoomail.com [205.180.60.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id BAA27816 for ; Sun, 27 Dec 1998 01:41:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from master_incubus@yahoo.com) Message-ID: <19981227093654.16819.rocketmail@send1e.yahoomail.com> Received: from [204.148.83.235] by send1e; Sun, 27 Dec 1998 01:36:54 PST Date: Sun, 27 Dec 1998 01:36:54 -0800 (PST) From: Tony Bucciao Subject: adduser/sysinstall diff? To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm new to the list (I *FINALLY* got around to installing freeBSD after 4 months of doing nothign with the CD....I do have your basic unix experience but am new to the world of system administration. So go to add a user via 'adduser', with the shell being bash, and for some reason, when I login using the newly created user, I cannot use pico. Ok, so that would mean that the pathway is not being set up correctly to read /usr/local/bin on the startup of the user shell, correct? Wait, there is more... I use sysinstall to create a new user, set the shell to bash (/usr/local/bin/bash), and login using the account created with sysinstall it finds pico.... Does anyone have an idea as to why this may be? Is there something I have over looked? That's all I can think of right now, my brian is fried... Looking forward to having fun with you all! Later!

I rotated the log files, it worked for a while and came back to this. It also works to delete /var/log/wtmp and touch a new one but it seems to get corrupted often. Any Ideas would be appreciated!

It'll also work with 2.2.7, but you'll have to download the driver from http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/3Com/ and stick it into the source tree yourself (instructions are provided at that URL).

Hello, I would like to get a local copy of ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD I would like to update in periodically like cvsup-mirror says it does...or like mirror says it does. The question I have for cvsup-mirror is how to setup the directories. I have a disk3 on the machine I am working with, my config.sh has this in it: distribs="distrib.self .. . FreeBSD.cvs /disk3/pub/FreeBSD . FreeBSD-crypto.cvs /disk3/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-CVS . FreeBSD-www.current /disk3/pub/FreeBSD/www . FreeBSD-gnats.current /disk3/pub/FreeBSD/gnats gnats FreeBSD-mail.current SKIP ." But I am not sure this will do all the RELEASE's and everything...can anyone comment on this? mirror, I am sure will just straight copy whatever has changed so that should be pretty straight forward...what are you using? The purpose for this archive BTW is in order to do local installs without having to make the 'net suffer...and the FreeBSD site, later, if bandwidth permits, we might open it up to being one of the mirrors...on the list.

I've seen these in screen captures of > "enlightenment". I suggest using xv to obtain this effect. The port is in /usr/ports/graphics/xv/ ; a usage which gets what you want is (from your .xinitrc, probably): xv -rmode 5 -maxpect -quit -random `find -L /foo/graphics/background/ -name "[A-Za-z]*" -print` & This will randomly select from all pics in /foo/graphics/background/ and display one in the root window. Along the way, it will inflate the graphic to as close as it can get to the virtual display dimensions while retaining the original aspect ratio. Any space not covered by the graphic will be black. If you "man xv", you'll see a lot of options. Read up on "-root", "-rmode", "-quit" and you'll be in good shape. Enjoy! Greg -- Gregory S.

The X server is responsible for resetting the console, and if it is killed, it doesn't happen. > I cannot start X-Server on the console since there is no response > from the keyboard.

There's a good (but not excellent) chance that it will work.

I don't recall if there's a BSD/OS version of Netscape. You could try that. But in any case, the FreeBSD version should work.

This is really an NT question. ``Ask your friendly Microsoft rep''. Bring money. You'd be a lot better off running a FreeBSD ftp server. From a recent article about your alternatives: - Buy a PC and install Microsoft on it. For a large server, you'll need NT, and the software license will cost about as much as the server. Microsoft has a Solutions/Best Practices web page (http://www.microsoft.com/misc/backstage/solutions.htm) which tells you that you can expect to move about 6 GB a day from three Compaq ProLiant 5000s or 5500s with four Pentium Pro processors and 512 MB memory each. In order to maintain availability, Microsoft recommends that you install multiple systems with failover. - Buy a PC and install FreeBSD on it. The hardware would appear to cost the same, but you don't pay anything for the software. In fact, as the hardware configuration for wcarchive.cdrom.com (ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/archive-info/wcarchive.txt) shows, this is misleading. wcarchive is only a single system with a single CPU, also a Pentium Pro. By contrast to Microsoft's 6 GB of downloads per day, however, it routinely transfers more than 700 GB of data a day to up to 3600 concurrent users-over 100 times the performance of three larger NT machines combined. On December 2, 1998, wcarchive transferred 820,097,694,368 bytes of data, making it the busiest ftp server in the world.

I am using CTMed 2.2.8-stable. I was using the off-line mode of Netscape Communicator 4.05 to download and read news under Win95(just for better Chinese char support). Because I saved too many messages(over 10,000), Netscape crashes occasionally while reading. So I decided to run a news server locally under FreeBSD. I downloaded source code of INN-2.1 and installed it. Since I have only dial-up connection and it is a bit complicated for me to config 'newsfeeds' file, INN was configed only provide newsgroup service locally. Three groups, control, junk and chinese.comp.linux was added. I use 'suck 3.9.1'(provieded in ports/news) to download every article from news.freesoft.cei.gov.cn/chinese.comp.linux to a tmp dir(It took me 2 hours in a 33.6 connection). Now the question comes. How to feed these articles to /usr/local/news/spool/articles/chinese/comp/linux and let INN know. So I can read articles locally as a lurker. I remind that someone had mentioned that he/her had done it using a script by him/herself. Where are you ?!

I've been meaning to answer this for a couple of weeks, and today, when the LKMs were finally killed, seems appropriate :-) Your question has nothing to do with LKMs. The uap structure is a pointer to your arguments.

No. *We* would have been using the ports system. > Reading the README file, it tells i need Berkeley DB 2 Database Lib! > Where can i get it? The port's Makefile doesn't list any dependencies. So my guess would be it comes with the basic FreeBSD system. In fact it is probably the dbm database package that is used for the password database. > I don't wanna go throw ports (i hate any automatic proccess to install > software, so i love things like: ./configure, vi config.h , make , make > check, .......,make install). Yeah, I won't throw them (away that is), too. I try to go through the ports system if possible. Now, if you don't trust them to do the work automatically, at least take a look at the contents of it to find out what had to be changed to the original source package to build it under FreeBSD. Browsing through patches/patch-aa I find a lot of adaptions to the Makefile. Apparently lots of things the original configure script didn't understand about FreeBSD. You seem to suffer from a strong instance of NIH-symdrome... My advice would be to cure it by doing a cvsup/make world cycle. Greetings, Ripley -- H.

To this end, I am working with the DPT engineering folks to assure prompt and quality product. * I do not expect the work to be completed before two-three months from now. Here is a summary of some issues in this regard: * The card is i2o compliant. * The i2o specifications are proprietary and neither the specifications nor any code based on these specifications can be published. * I have the necessary credentials and licensing agreements in place to allow me to develop i2o software. * There is no i2o infrastructure in FreeBSD. * I am actively busy developing such infrastructure. * Once the i2o infrastructure is viable, the DPT driver will be completed. Actually, these two are developed hand in hand. * There will be no source code of any of this work available until the i2o consortium decides to allow publication of work based on this standard. * I have no clue if and when such publication will be permitted. * A binary version of the code, in the form of a LKM, binary stubs, etc. will be made available on ftp://simon-shapiro.org/i2o. * These binaries will be updated once a week, tracking FreeBSD 3.0 and or CURRENT. * I have no plans to track any earlier versions of FreeBSD. * Alpha support will be concurrent with IA support. Hope this helps. As I said before, I do not have the ability to track this list, but please do not hesitate to drop me a line...

Some machines go to users (without root access) and some go to the 'lab' where multiple users (again without root access) use them. As with single user machines (such as macintoshes and often windows setups) and as seen in versions of Solaris/SunOS, the _users_ wish to _use_ the removable media, floppys, zips, CD's, LS-120s, etc. Issue: We've been using der automounter for this; however, der automounter is designed for NFS usage (and does wonderful at it) and it has features such as program file systems, pcfs filesystems, etc. that allow for direct mounting of file systems (without NFS usage); however, these do not handle rugged, frequent, normal (what you'd expect for normal people to do) usage. Example: Zip drive gets mounted to /PATH/zip. It is accessed from /zip (cd /zip automounts /dev/da2s4 on /PATH/zip.) with security added such that only the owner of /dev/console (and root) may access the drive (part of the program mount); however, if you access /zip without a drive in the zip drive (frequently done at boot up, and by idiots -- this is where IDIOT-PROOFING comes in, and acidents -- whoops, wrong direcotry) locks out /zip. Question: Do we have any reliable mechanism, be it modification/configuration of der automounter or something else, to give the users of X (and their telnet windows) complete access to the removable media, without giving it to others, which recognizes AND DOESN'T BREAK!!!! switching the removable media well? -jonsmith "If kisses could kill (gulp), that one would have flattened several small towns...."

Not > only Dr. Greg, but many ones here helps, how can it be? For the most part we are all volunteers. I do it because I spent 6 years repairing computers professionally for buisnesses. When 95 came out it gave (and gives) me no end of headaches. I'm learning FreeBSD on my way to get a better job and make some real money so that I can tell my parents that NOT graduating college was the best thing I could have ever done. :) I support FreeBSD as best I can by answering questions here as a way to support the project itself. Without the occasional help, newbies won't get into it. Without the growth there will be less need to add more features into the system. Without advanced features and hardware support, there will be less new people wanting to use the system. So in a way I'm really helping myself in the long run. I gain an advanced robust operating system, knowledge on how to use, run and administor it, and therefore become a more valuable worker for my company which translates into promotions and higher pay.

I know vim will do all of the above, vim is in ports/editors/vim5, I believe. It comes with online help, so you can just type ":help" from command mode, and go exploring.

I had a 2.2.6-RELEASE system that I wiped and installed 3.0-RELEASE. I tried three times to build the Ssh port and it failed. First, when 'make extract' was running, it said it required rsaref, which did not exist. Instead of pausing, downloading, building rsaref, and then continuing, Ssh continued extracting after which it started building and, of course, failed. Even after building the required ports individually, the Ssh build still failed under "make install." I figure it must be something I am missing with 3.0, becasue I have built that port at least 10 times under 2.2.6, 2.2.7, 2.2-STABLE, and had it work every time.

My plan is to make the old computer a firewall/natd/mail server and connect through it using the new computer running freebsd sometimes and win 98 sometimes. To that end I purchased a hub, cables, and a NIC for the new computer. The old computer already has a NIC that was connected directly to my cable modem. What I want to do is plug all 3 of these items into the hub and have them play nicely together. :) To that end I've wiped the old computer clean, installed 2.2.8-R on it, followed all the instructions to set up natd, and plugged it and the cable modem into the hub. So far so good. Those two are very happy together. I just used the rule that is in rc.firewall for the divert rule, and natd is started from rc.network as 'natd -n ep0', which is the correct interface. The problem comes when I try to use the new computer. So far I've only installed win98 on it, and I configured it to have an IP address of 10.0.0.1, use the old computer's IP as the gateway, and the cable modem people's dns server. When I try to do any internet related stuff from the new computer the old computer spits out something like the following error: arplookup failed for 10.0.0.1: host not on local network Now I KNOW I'm missing something, but I don't know what. This is my first foray into LAN-type stuff, so if what I want to do is possible, please explain what I'm missing in detail. If I need to go get another NIC for the gateway box that's ok, but since I will have a total of two computers plus one cable modem I thought a hub would be a better solution. :-/ I am *guessing* that I need to add an alias to the gateway box for the new box to talk to, then change the divert rule in rc.firewall but I haven't hit on a combination of these things that make it work yet. Also, I haven't even gotten around to trying to configure nfs because installing freebsd on the new box is my next project. (I needed a browser to search the archives so win98 was first.) Any suggestions to this end would also be greatly appreciated.

Well, in fact many are. Two or three are being paid to do it, with money donated by Walnut Creek CDROM out of the CD-ROM sales (this is a good reason to buy your CD-ROMs from Walnut Creek, BTW). > 2) How do you answer the questions, Dr. Greg Lehey help me with many > questions, i did not have to spend any cents, this is one thing that > would never be true if i were using the Windows Never Try, isn't it?

First, it helps me understand and fix the problems people have with the system, which in turn enables me to write better books (for which I do get money), and secondly it's good advertising for my professional services, which also cost money.

Whoa... Wait, let me get this straight. You're going to have the modem, the 'firewall,' and the new machine all plugged into the hub? That does not make sense. Your new computer is tied /directly/ to the outside world through the hub to modem. For the setup you seem to be interested in, you don't really need a hub; you need another NIC. You have: [ Hub ] | | | / | \ (ROW)-----Modem | New PC Old PC You want (I think): (ROW)-----Old PC--x--New PC ^ A cross-over cable. If you have only one IP assigned by your cable provider, this situation will get very confusing, very quickly. -- Crist J.

I made it work by starting from one of telnet session from another machine. Well, everything works under X-Window, however when I close my X session, the PC console is still locked. So I had to start X again from telnet. I wish there are way or tool to refresh or reset the console so I do not have to reboot soon. I wonder how this resetting console should be done. Is there any place or documentatoins I can look at? BTW, I found kbd_mode(1) but not much effect on console itself(it's only for keyboard, isn't it?). Keyboard and screen works when 1) X is running a) I can switch to console using ALT+CTL+1, then back to X session pressing ALT+F4. However there is no login prompt or shell session visible on console when pressing ALT+F1, ALT+F2 or ALT+F3, and no response to keyboard in either virtual console. ------> Sail OZ Shigetoh Kumagai On Mon, 28 Dec 1998, Greg Lehey wrote: > You're probably out of luck here.

Assuming you have Xaw3d installed, and would like to build another port using it instead of the standard Xaw, you have a bit of work to do. First, do a 'make configure' on the port. This will perform all the steps up to, but not including, actually building the port. Then you'll need to cd into the port's ${WRKSRC} directory and tinker with the Makefiles, config.h files and so forth, substituting Xaw3d for Xaw. Then cd back to the port's main directory and make it. Not terribly difficult, really. -- Conrad Sabatier To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 28 19:04:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA04872 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 28 Dec 1998 19:04:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hotmail.com (f202.hotmail.com [207.82.251.93]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA04866 for ; Mon, 28 Dec 1998 19:04:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mcwong@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 29462 invoked by uid 0); 29 Dec 1998 03:04:19 -0000 Message-ID: <19981229030419.29461.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 203.22.111.86 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Mon, 28 Dec 1998 19:04:19 PST X-Originating-IP: [203.22.111.86] From: "M.C Wong" To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Has anyone successfully built Gnome 3.0 on 2.2.5R ?

If it's only a problem with the login prompt, you can try killing the shell (or whatever) on that virtual terminal. To find what's running on a specific vt (in this example /dev/ttyv0), do: # ps tv0 The `t' option specifies ``only processes running on this terminal'', and ``v0'' is the last two characters of ``/dev/ttyv0''.

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 all, I'm having some problems getting an internal PnP modem to work with 2.2.8-Stable. The modem is a HSP K56Flex modem. I figured out its vendor ID from pnpinfo(8) and added it to /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sio.c so that it recognized the modem and attached it to a sio device. I also enabled it and let the BIOS configure it in the kernel user config. It found the modem at the port and IRQ the BIOS provided (Com3 - 0x3e8 and IRQ 11) but gave an error that "the IRQ was not in the mask of probed IRQs". I then overrode the BIOS PnP settings via user config to use Com2 (0x2f8) and IRQ 3. It still gave the same error message. Does anyone have any ideas or previous experience on this? Thanks. Also, please CC me on any replies as I don't read -questions myself.

Go to http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ and download the appropriate upgrade kit. I Cc'd this to -doc because this is the 2nd or 3rd message with this question today. Doc guys.. perhaps this should be added to the FAQ if it hasn't been already (guess I should've checked first =)). I'm willing to write the entry as a text file (I dunno jack about SGML.. yet) and submit the PR if anyone else thinks it'd be useful.

Oops, that's certainly one way to read what I wrote. Was thinking more along the lines of, "if what you are writting is compressable." Once Upon A Time, I did a "dd if=/dev/zero obs=64k of=/dev/rst0" to a DDS-1 tape in a DC drive just to see what happened. 88G later the 90m tape was full. Guess compression works. Altho manually I could compress more than 88G of zeros into one little email message. :-) > Recall that this is now quite an old drive. They were being sold off > surplus two years ago. Yes, its an old design. And new old stock is still available. But it is inexpensive, and it does work well. New DDS-3 drives are under $1k and run at least 3 times faster. > I thought that Archive bought Conner and was then bought by Seagate, > and that all these drives are quite old. As I remember history, Conner bought Archive and proceeded to plaster the Conner name on all of Archive's products. Then Seagate bought Conner and left whatever name was on whatever product. This summer I got the DAT programming guide from Seagate, was labeled "Conner". Rarely does the purchasing company drop their own name and assume the aquisition's name. But anything is possible... An SGI R10K Challenge L at work is about 2 years old. Came OEM with a Seagate S??-8000 DDS-2 DC tape drive of the current generation. Stickers on the drive also identify it as a Conner, and as an Archive 4326. Suspect what those stickers are really saying is this drive is the current replacement for those older products. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Adam Stanislav" Subject: "Domain must exist" Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, this is my first post here. I have recently installed FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE. I have the domain whizkidtech.net, so I entered it as my domain. I entered "whizkid" as my host. Now when I try to send out mail, localhost sends it to whizkid.whizkidtech.net. It is then sent to whomever it is addressed to. But it is refused because "domain must exist." Of course, whizkid.whizkidtech.net is not listed on any DNS. Whizkidtech.net is, but that is where my web site is, on another system, in another state. So how do I tell my system to use whizkidtech.net rather than whizkid.whizkidtech.net for outgoing mail. Temporarily, I have changed the hostname to whizkidtech.net in my rc.config and my new mail is getting through (although the old mail is still stuck in the queue). But that means that two different computers in two different states now have the same host name. What do I do???

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have found a likely bug in FreeBSD 3.0. It involves the iostreams capability in C++. In a nutshell, when I hit the end of a file and then attempt to rewind it to the beginning, it tells me it is at the beginning, but attempts to read from the file claim it is at the end. The code works perfectly on SCO Unix (however, the test code was modified to more clearly bring out the problem and because the code in question is proprietary.) I have test code which brings out the failure and demonstrates exactly what is happening, and a data file for the same purpose. To whom should this information be sent so that I can help remove this problem with FreeBSD?

I assume you mean ``I don't have a static IP address''. Or are you really using UUCP? If you don't have a permanent IP, you'll have to get your ISP to host mail for you. Then the MX points to that system, and you pick up the mail with things like POP.

John, I hate to tell you this, but using the HSP K56Flex modem with FreeBSD is a hopeless cause -- I spent an entire day last week tweaking with one only to discover that HSP stands for "Host Signal Processing". This means that the modem requires software running on the host Pentium processor to process the incoming analog modem signal -- real modems have an on-board Digital Signal Processor, ROM and RAM to handle this completely internal to the modem itself. HSP modems are literally just a minimal number of I/O components to connect the phone line to the computer. This is why they are significantly cheaper than a more traditional internal modem for the PC. They can also significantly degrade the performance of a low-end Pentium system too. Unfortunately (or fortunately) the manufactures of these modems only make drivers for Windows 95/98 and Windows NT 4.0 and show no intentions of supporting any other OS's including FreeBSD or Linux. An inexpensive internal PnP 56K modem that does work OK with FreeBSD is a Best Data 56K Data Fax (Model #56SPS) modem -- roughly $60. In general you want to look for internal PC modems that claim to work with DOS, Windows 3.1 or a '486 processor. Be skeptical of any modem that claims to require Windows 95/98/NT and/or a 100/133 MHz Pentium processor. I hope this information helps.

If you already have four, and you want to keep them, you're out of luck. Otherwise use FreeBSD's fdisk program to do it (probably via the Disk Label Editor during installation). See the handbook or ``The Complete FreeBSD'' for more details. Note that the first 50 MB or so of the slice you create must be addressable by the BIOS with no outside help, otherwise you won't be able to boot FreeBSD.

Thanks to you, and all the other people who mailed me privately. Fortunately I had another NIC that I wasn't using, so now I'm in business. *Big Grin* I may get a crossover cable eventually, but the two are communicating through the hub just fine, and since it was only $25, and it has blinking lights, I will keep it for now. :) Thanks VERY much, Doug To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 29 02:50:43 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA16980 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 02:50:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA16972 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 02:50:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id VAA03128; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 21:19:33 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id VAA33922; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 21:19:35 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19981229211934.U32696@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Tue, 29 Dec 1998 21:19:34 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: sprint , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Network References: <000101be330e$1cd607a0$0901a8c0@spd15> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: <000101be330e$1cd607a0$0901a8c0@spd15>; from sprint on Tue, Dec 29, 1998 at 10:32:10AM +0100 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tuesday, 29 December 1998 at 10:32:10 +0100, sprint wrote: > Dear Sir, > I have installed from cdrom version 2.2.5 and it works fine. > I have a 3c509b ethernet card and during start up he says no driver loaded.

In fact I used Dos and Used Winx and NT but then I am seriously thinking of moving to use FreeBSD. I was trying to figure out what are the differences between the OS's that I used to use and FreeBSD and why is FreeBSD is better than using Dos or NT for example. I would be very glad to receive your answers on this e-mail. Thank you in advance.

Perhaps a little more to the point. How can I use the "acd" device with my ATAPI CD Burner (HP 7200i)? The Release notes and cvs information imply that this can be used but there is no documentation anywhere on this and I see that CURRENT has moved over to force all ATAPI drives to use the acd device. Is there some documentation anywhere on this issue?

Yes, I meant no static IP address. I'll have to talk to my ISP what it would take to get one. For now, I have rconfigured my system to be just plain whizkidtech.net. That seems to be working.

What's the difference between the /var/run and /var/db? What are they intended for? I couldn't find the answer in a quick search of the handbook but maybe I missed some map of filesystems and intended uses. My /var/run has various .pid files but also a dev.db, ld.so.hints, utmp. This looks mostly temporary. /var/db has my dhcpd.leases, kvm_kernel.db, locate.database, mountdtab. This looks somewhat more permanent. I've built Amanda (network backup) and want to know where is best to store its database of machines, filesystems, dump levels, and tapes. This needs to be preserved across machine boots. Thanks.

Adam Stanislav" Subject: broken pipe Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I have my FreeBSD 2.2.8 installed on a small 80 meg partition at the end of my hard disk, so I only installed the binaries and man pages. Well, last night I decided to try to also install the docs, thinking that if I did not have enough disk space, FreeBSD would just say so. I was installing via ftp, and sure enough, ran out of disk space. The installation aborted, and I got a message saying something about a "broken pipe". I ran the df command and was told my disk was 103% full, and had negative free space (how can that be???). I deleted the contents of the /tmp directory, but df gave me the same response. I deleted several other files, same thing. Having come from a Windows background, I figured I had to reboot. That is when all hell broke out. After rebooting, a number of demons just kept sending messages to my screen that they did not have enough disk space. Because those messages were constantly scrolling my screen, I was at a total loss. I finally figured that while FreeBSD rarely crashes (unlike Windows which does it all the time), when it does crash, it seems like the end of the world. Not knowing what else to do, I ended up reinstalling FreeBSD 2.2.8 from scratch (losing everything I had on the system before, I mean in that 80 meg partition only, not on my Windows partition). Now I have a couple questions for future reference: 1. If this happens again (broken pipe), how do I recover? 2. How do I tell the daemons to quit sending all those messages? I can read them the first time they send them, why do they keep repeating them? 3. Where does a pipe store its temporary data? I assume if I could have just deleted that somehow, I would have been back in business without having to start from scratch again.

Two years ago, a friend set up a small server with FBSD and configured the data pages like this: /work/usr/local/www/data/... This has caused many problems since all web pages were (including pages for several host) originating from .../data/ This caused at least 2 problems: the server had 1 certification for SSL and we could not have more for the other hosts AND FTP access from each client was not secure at all since the were all somewhere in the same /data directory In the book, I see that the default set up is: /usr/local/www/data/ What's the difference between /work/usr/... AND /usr/... ? With my new installation (version 2.2.7), I plan to have more than a hundred clients with their own web pages. They will be able to update some pages by FTP so security is a big concern. What is the ideal tree? Thank you in advance! -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Marc Andre Paquin, Dir.

To recover, you need to delete files until you have enough disk space. If you were installing the docs, a good place to look to delete files would be in the /usr/share/doc directory. Rebooting is rarely necessary unless you want to upgrade your kernel. In fact, if you are having a major problem, rebooting can be the absolutely worst thing you can do; as you found out.

The ports are intended to be fairly human-understandable. The strobe port has three patches in the "patches" subdirectory. You should probably start by reading those.

This may or may not be it, but I know on some systems you can tell the player to use 8-bit rather than 16-bit sound (it's one of the options you set under Preferences menu, as far as I remember). I had to do this on my system to get normal sound. I have one of those MB with built-in SoundPro chip, which I told the sound driver was a WSS device. Setting the option to use 8-bit sound is mentioned in the rvplayer's documentation.

It'd be nice, but I'm going to assume you were root when you did the install. Root can do whatever root wants; it's a feature, not a bug. If you tell FreeBSD, as root, to cram 50MB onto 10MB of disk space, it'll try to do so. With ultimate power comes ultimate responsibility ;) It's also one of the reasons everyone recommends keeping up-to-date backups. > Yes, I found the hard way...

Not pretending to have a solution, but I had a similar experience. Here is what i found by playing around: * /compat linux/usr/bin/ldd is a shell script which seems to basically call ld-linux.so.2 with some options * the path to ld-linux.so.2 in the (linux)ldd script seems wrong. One could either "ln -s /compat/linux/lib /lib" as root or edit the ldd script and substitute /compat/linux/lib/ld-linux.so.2 where the script has /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (is there some kind of chroot magic there I am not aware of -- I don't quite understand the chroot magic anyways :-). * even with this modification to the script running "/compat/linux/usr/bin/ldd linux_foo", or, for that matter, "/compat/lib/ld-linux.so.2 --verify linux_foo" didn't seem to work. * I read in the handbook that on FreeBSD >2.2.6 sometimes things work better if Linux emulator is compiled into the kernel. So I did that. (probably wasn't necessary). * Notwithstanding the errors I got running linux ldd from the command line, I was able to run WP8 with the Linux emulator compiled into the kernel under 2.2.7, and, after cvsupping, under 2.2.8. So I decided to leave it alone. I am still confused as to how or why this works, but that isn't the only thing I am confused about, so oh well ;-). -- Evgeny Roubinchtein, eroubinc@u.washington.edu ...................

Your keyboard is working fine, and whatever you type is sent to the modem. Whatever is sent back from the modem is then displayed on your monitor. Your modem can be set up to echo back whatever you send to it, or NOT to echo it back. Chances are its default settings are to echo back. If that is the case, type ATZ rather than just AT. You should receive "OK" from the modem. You should see everything you type after that. I said "should" because most modern modems let you change their defaults. If yours are changed, consult your modem manual on how to make echo the default. Also, you may want to read your modem manual for the specific command to turn echoing back without typing ATZ (since ATZ restores ALL defaults, that may not be what you want--or it may be exactly what you want, depending on your modem and how it is configured). Adam P.S. Theoretically, modem commands are case sensitive and should be typed in upper case: AT, not at. In reality, most new modems accept the commands regardless of the case. ===> Whiz Kid Technomagic <=== http://www.whizkidtech.net/ The resource center for webmasters and web users Winner of the Starting Point Hot Site award Winner of the Lighthouse Award Home of the Web Magic Award To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 29 13:07:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA13090 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 13:07:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns1.lex.gob.gt (ns1.lex.gob.gt [168.234.110.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA13082 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 13:07:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from victor@mp.lex.gob.gt) Received: from mp-dbs.mp.intralex (mp-dbs.mp.intralex [192.168.1.3]) by ns1.lex.gob.gt (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id PAA15294 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 15:06:46 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from victor@mp.lex.gob.gt) Received: from mp.lex.gob.gt (prueba [192.168.1.244]) by mp-dbs.mp.intralex (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id PAA05419 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 15:06:40 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from victor@mp.lex.gob.gt) Message-ID: <36894656.BA49C96A@mp.lex.gob.gt> Date: Tue, 29 Dec 1998 15:15:02 -0600 From: Victor Carranza Reply-To: victorc@BitSmart.com Organization: Ministerio =?iso-8859-1?Q?P=FAblico?= de Guatemala X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Wingz?

Look at Boot Sequence... It's probably set to "C,A" -- which means it checks the hard drive first, and since you have a bootable partition on it, it didn't even look at the floppy. Change this setting to "A,C" (or whatever your drive letters happen to be), save and exit. Everything should run smoothly. Hope this helps.

There'll almost always be someone willing to answer you, but that doesn't obligate that person to follow through on further questions (though most of the time, they will). 3) Understand, that I did a part of your work by giving you the url. I went to the site and searched it for multi-os booting and provided you with the result. By not even looking at it, you completely discourage me from wanting to help you: my mentality is that I love being able to help as much as I love being helped, but I will not do your work while you sit around and watch.

With ultimate power comes ultimate responsibility ;) Yes, I understand, and it has worked fine for decades when Unix was used by corporations and universities who had an expert system administrator. But as more and more people get fed up with Windows and migrate to FreeBSD (or other Unix clones, but FreeBSD seems to me the one that makes the most sense switching to), we will see more and more individual FreeBSD installation, where the individual is the root as well as the only user without being an expert. I mean, take cars as an analogy. When the car was first invented, you had to crank it up by hand, and you had to deal all problems personally. There were few drivers and even fewer cars. Nowadays (in the US, anyway), everyone is a driver and almost everyone has a car. Most drivers know how to add antifreeze, but not how to deal with system failures. If a car manufacturer said that if you can open the hood, you have the power to fix all problems by yourself, he would not be making cars for long. It does not matter how powerful the car is. In fact, Cadillac is easier to use than Chevy. And I did not suggest the system should have deleted the docs without asking me. Yes, I was a root, but only because I had to be in order to do the install. I would never have asked it to dump 50 Meg to 10 Meg of disk space, had I know how big it was. Again, every single Windows install I ever used, started by checking if there was enough space on the disk. If FreeBSD had told me in advance I did not have enough space, and I had said, go ahead do it anyway, I could not complain, of course. (And I am not complaining even now, I was simply asking how I could do better in the future.) At this point in time, I would *love* to tell all my clients to ditch Windows and go with FreeBSD. But my clients are small business owners who do not have the time to become experts in computer operating systems, nor do they have the budget to hire a full-time system administrator. What choice does that leave me but to suggest they swith from Win95 to WinNT, a system that is expensive and bloated, with much less power than Unix, but relatively easy to use. Meanwhile, Gates Motel is laughing his way to the bank for selling mediocre products. >It's also one of the reasons everyone recommends keeping up-to-date backups. Yes, of course. I did have my own stuff elsewhere, I just had to go through the trouble of reinstalling it. At least this time I was more familiar with the process. One *nice* thing (user-friendly) it did was hang up the phone after the install. I was reinstalling the system via ftp, late at night, and lay down while waiting, just to fall asleep. When I woke up in the morning, I jumped out of the bed thinking I had been connected to the Internet all night long, but the modem was offline .

Do I just remove the floppy from the drive? If >not, I need detailed instructions. It will ask you if you want a boot manager. Say yes. The first time you reboot after the install, the boot manager will tell you to press F1 for "DOS" (which is Windows) or F2 for FreeBSD. It will wait until you press one of the two. After that, it will still give you the option to press F1 or F2 but if you do not press either within a reasonable time limit, it will boot to whatever system you used last. The somewhat tricky part is getting to plain DOS on a Windows 95 machine. You must press F1 and immediately press F8 for the Windows boot manager. If you hesitate after pressing F1, Windows will start booting. Adam P.S. You do need to remove the floppy regardless of which system you want to boot. Which reminds me of a strange problem I have encountered, perhaps someone can help me: I always had the boot sequence set to: CDROM/C/A. I changed it to A/C for the install. But afterwards, I cannot switch it back to CDROM/C/A. I mean I can switch it, all right, but if the CD ROM does not have a boot CD in it, the FreeBSD boot manager will not load either DOS or FreeBSD. It asks the question, and has F? for default, and no matter what I choose, it just repeats the question. I had to set my BIOS to go A/C to be able to boot anything. ===> Whiz Kid Technomagic <=== http://www.whizkidtech.net/ The resource center for webmasters and web users Winner of the Starting Point Hot Site award Winner of the Lighthouse Award Home of the Web Magic Award To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 29 14:09:27 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA19052 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 14:09:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from icicle.winternet.com (icicle.winternet.com [198.174.169.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA19047 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 14:09:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from nrahlstr@mail.winternet.com) Received: (from adm@localhost) by icicle.winternet.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA04477; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 16:08:58 -0600 (CST) Received: from tundra.winternet.com(198.174.169.11) by icicle.winternet.com via smap (V2.0) id xma004455; Tue, 29 Dec 98 16:08:43 -0600 Received: (from nrahlstr@localhost) by tundra.winternet.com (8.8.7/8.8.4) id QAA06677; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 16:08:42 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <19981229160841.A6397@winternet.com> Date: Tue, 29 Dec 1998 16:08:41 -0600 From: Nathan Ahlstrom To: "Mark E.

You're asking on the wrong mailing list. The FreeBSD-questions list is exactly the right place for questions of this sort, and you will find fast, competent, patient help there. I've forwarded a copy of your message there, and directed replies there, too. If you're new to FreeBSD, you should probably subscribe to FreeBSD-questions until you are comfortable and experienced with FreeBSD. Then stay subscribed for at least one more year, giving back. ;^) -- Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?

This is an area I've been just a bit confused with myself and haven't seen a definitive answer: the dial-up dynamic IP address situation. Things are working for me, but am closely monitoring in case its done wrong. My ISP provides a DNS entry for nospam.hiwaay.net as 127.0.0.1. So I've given that hostname to my system. It keeps remote systems with the latest anti-spam sendmail rules happy when the DM rule on my system (DMnospam.hiwaay.net) didn't. Was probably juggling too many variables at the same time as eventually I set "hostname nospam.hiwaay.net", then in sendmail.cf "DMnospam.hiwaay.net"and also "DSmail.hiwaay.net" so my deliveries are handed off while I'm online rather than negotiate and deliver directly to the remote systems myself. Fun thing about changing one's hostname is xauthorization has fits until one's ~/.Xauthority has the appropriate hostnames too. Also in desperation one FreeBSD list member's email was getting caught in the following Sendmail 8.9.1 rules so I commented them out: #R $* $#error $@ 4.1.8 $: "451 Sender domain must resolve" #R $* $#error $@ 5.1.8 $: "501 Sender domain must exist" -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

I realize that floppy tapes are not the ideal backup device, but I have an old Colorado Jumbo 250 tape drive that I'd like to use (instead of floppies!). When I run the command 'dump -f /dev/rft0 /usr', I get the message "DUMP: bad sblock magic number" and dump quits. Does dump support floppy tape drives, or am I missing something? Also, does the 'ft' command (ala, 'tar cvzf - /usr | ft "/usr save"') support multiple-tape spanning? I'm a newbie looking for a quick, simple way to backup before I make world and build a custom kernal. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not really. While my machine has rarely crashed, it comes back up in fairly good condition after. You'll often have to fsck the disks after your machine crashes though, before you can mount them again. > 1. If this happens again (broken pipe), how do I recover? Broken pipe errors occur when a process is writing to a pipe, and they receive a SIGPIPE (I think). If I run something like $ cat /kernel | head -1 > /dev/null I see the error "broken pipe", because head(1) closes its end of the pipe after the first line, but cat(1) tries to keep writing. sh(1) doesn't seem to report "broken pipe" errors like Bash (my login shell) does. > 2.

Where does a pipe store its temporary data? I'm not sure if a temporary file is created at all, the data may well only be stored in memory. However, the process on the receiving end of the pipe may well want to write data flowing down the pipe onto disk, which may have been your problem.

Maybe, but you might also get error messages from Apache.

If you are running a custom kernel, install the kernel sources, and re-build the kernel, but check for u/g drivers etc. first. e.g I've got a 3COM 3C900 NIC which has a new driver (xl0) so I had to modify my config file first. > Dan > -- > Dan Busarow 949 443 4172 > Dana Point Communications, Inc. dan@dpcsys.com > Dana Point, California 83 09 EF 59 E0 11 89 B4 8D 09 DB FD E1 DD 0C 82 > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K.

I bet you see the actual \n - don't you? That's because your \n isn't a new-line, it's the backslash character followed by a letter n. You can verify this with a quick check using echo. Try this: sed "s,test,te st," and - nope ; that's not a mail formatting problem... it's a quoted string with a new-line in the middle. - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 29 18:05:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA14911 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 18:05:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp1.vnet.net (smtp1.vnet.net [166.82.1.31]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA14906 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 18:05:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rivers@dignus.com) Received: from dignus.com (ponds.vnet.net [166.82.177.48]) by smtp1.vnet.net (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id VAA26081 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 21:05:22 -0500 (EST) Received: from lakes.dignus.com (lakes.dignus.com [10.0.0.3]) by dignus.com (8.9.1/8.8.5) with ESMTP id VAA16106 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 21:48:31 -0500 (EST) Received: (from rivers@localhost) by lakes.dignus.com (8.9.1/8.6.9) id VAA03866 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 21:06:13 -0500 (EST) Date: Tue, 29 Dec 1998 21:06:13 -0500 (EST) From: Thomas David Rivers Message-Id: <199812300206.VAA03866@lakes.dignus.com> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 3.01 release date?

Take a Win95 PC with ~15MB free space and _without_ QuickTime v3 installed, then install IBM World Book 99. It'll install, then decide it needs to install QT v3 and then bomb out (& lock up) 'coz you ain't got enough disk space. The only way out is a 3 finger salute which leaves a partially installed World Book and all the QT install files in your temp dir. Windows 95 fool-proof computing...NOT.

(I admit I have no idea how Unix stores files; I am quite familiar with the FAT system, but all I know about Unix way is that it is different.) I really need to get another hard disk, install the sources, and learn from them. What a wonderful resource that must be! >> 2. How do I tell the daemons to quit sending all those messages?

The messages were scrolling so fast, I could only get the general idea they were complaining about insufficient disk space. I am new to this. And of course, since I reinstalled, there are no logs. So, I don't know which ones. My question was (meant to be) generic: When I get so many messages, is there some key I can hit to stop the messages so I can get to the prompt and type a command and see what it does? That is basically what I am asking. Come to think of it, I did not even get a chance to log on. If it did print "login:" it scrolled off so fast that I did not see it. I guess I could have tried switching to another console, but it did not occur to me at the time.

Windows outright lies when it says it would restart in MS-DOS mode, it simply suspends itself and runs the command shell (command.com or 4dos.com, depending on the configuration). But if you type exit, you're back in Windows (and if you type "dir" you get the long filenames which you do not get from the F8 option--that, again, indicates Windows is still active).

(I admit I have no idea how Unix >stores files; I am quite familiar with the FAT system, but all I know about >Unix way is that it is different.) when the slice gets newfs'ed (the equivalent of a dos format), it puts aside a certain number of megabytes to help prevent fragmentation and such. it is set to 10% by default, and it is this 10% that root can write to. if you look at the back-issue daemonnews (www.daemonnews.org), i believe one article talks about newfs (i think it was in the article about getting an IDE zip drive to work on NetBSD) >My question was (meant to be) generic: When I get so many messages, is >there some key I can hit to stop the messages so I can get to the prompt >and type a command and see what it does? That is basically what I am asking. you could switch to another terminal where you don't get as many messages. some messages go to the console, some go to wherever root is logged in, etc. if you're always using ttyv0, then you're getting every possible message. >Come to think of it, I did not even get a chance to log on.

My question is, can I have both >FreeBSD and Windows95 on my single hard disk (not regarding disk space)? Yes, you can. You need to download a program called fips from freebsd.org. Then you need to defrag your driver from Windows. Then you need to exit Windows entirely (Start/Shutdown/Restart the computer/Yes). When the computer is restarting, you need to press the F8 key to get to the Windows boot manager. Choose to load DOS alone. (Make sure you go through all this, not just "restart in DOS mode"--as I mentioned in a previous message, that option does not exit Windows!) Then run fips. It will tell you how much disk space you have available at the end of the drive. Tell it how much you need for FreeBSD (I said 80 Meg, and that is way too little, I'd ask for at least 500 Meg if I had to do it all over again, and if I had that much available). Make sure to keep some for Windows, too. Fips will then create a new DOS partition on your hard disk. After that, run fdisk from the DOS prompt, and tell it to delete the new partition (DO NOT tell it to delete the partition Windows is on or you'll lose everything permanently!!!). Now reboot with your FreeBSD install floppy, and enjoy the ride! (At one point, you will get to a disk label program which lets you slice your available disk space, a concept that seems similar to DOS partitioning. Note that you can go over your existing DOS partition, and press M - that will allow you to mount your DOS partition under FBSD - you will be asked to name it, I named mine /dos. If you do that, you will be able to read all your DOS/Windows files from FreeBSD, even copy them on your FreeBSD disk. I love this option: Not being quite comfortable with Unix ways yet, I edit my C code under Windows, then compile it under FreeBSD. Absolute charm! And it is read-only, so you cannot accidentally mess up your Windows configuration.) Adam P.S. For best results, restart Windows right before defragging, so your swap file is at its smallest.

I am not trying to praise Windows (if I were I would not be trying so hard to get my FreeBSD up and running!). I just have to admit that even they occasionally do have a good idea. Alas, that is quite rare. I *am* fed up with Windows. But I like to be objective. If they occasionally come up with a good idea, I will not deny it. At least in THEORY, they are pushing for making computers usable by anyone. They probably have ulterior motives (if everyone can use it, everyone will buy it from them), but I do like the IDEA. I certainly do not like the way they implement the idea, though, but that's an entirely another can of worms.

That is basically what I am asking. You could always hit Scroll Lock to "freeze" the screen and use the arrow keys to browse. The messages you are getting are probably just complaining about no space on the drive.

I decided to use a FreeBSD 3.0 box as a dialup router, thus enabling access to our FreeBSD www server and our DEC UNIX Oracle database server. Most of the home users are using Novell's LanWorkplace Pro for telnet services (because that's what we use at the office) running on Windows something or other. I got hit up about printing from the Oracle Database on the DEC box. /* the more i write the less this sounds like a freebsd question */ Am I able to use the lpd client on a windows / ppp client and use that as the :rm: entry for the FreeBSD printcap and direct printing from the UNIX apps to a the remote client?

I just added a Win98 WS on my net at home and only managed one session to the internet through my FreeBSD box before 98 went south. 98 isn't even alpha in my book. Stick with 95. Let someone else debug it. If I could just get my hands on... Aside from being labor intensive, the "troubleshooter" (don't you just _know_ you're going to have fun when you come across a utility with that name) got the system running.

We've installed FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE over the 'net. It's installed with a partition entry, and FreeBSD's default boot manager, booteasy. However, after installation, booteasy runs, and gives a prompt like: FreeBSD.. F? When we select F1, the OS doesn't boot, but instead the prompt is repeated. After a while, we tried to use the OS-BS 1.35 bootmanager. On bootup, we get the OS-BS boot prompt, and when we select '1' to boot FreeBSD, we instead get an error message "no operating system". We have been successfully able to boot the system using the boot floppy, and specifying 0:da(0,a)kernel at the boot: prompt. So the OS has been installed OK. It's just that it won't boot from the boot manager. finally, we have even tried to install the OS using the "dangerously dedicated" mode when doing the fdisk, but again, after the computer starts up, it gives us the error message "read error". Again, we can start with the boot floppy, and successfully boot with 0:da(0,a)kernel. We know we can install a small DOS partition and boot off that, or even start with a floppy disk everytime, but this is not what is ideal, since we can't always be around to do that in case of power failure or something. Does anyone have any experiences with this type of problem? -- Anand To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 29 23:07:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA12183 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 23:07:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from jason04.u.washington.edu (jason04.u.washington.edu [140.142.78.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA12172 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 23:07:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from eroubinc@u.washington.edu) Received: from dante09.u.washington.edu (eroubinc@dante09.u.washington.edu [140.142.15.35]) by jason04.u.washington.edu (8.9.1+UW98.09/8.9.1+UW98.09) with ESMTP id XAA31182 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 23:05:56 -0800 Received: from localhost (eroubinc@localhost) by dante09.u.washington.edu (8.9.1+UW98.09/8.9.1+UW98.09) with ESMTP id XAA120302 for ; Tue, 29 Dec 1998 23:05:56 -0800 Date: Tue, 29 Dec 1998 23:05:56 -0800 (PST) From: Evgeny Roubinchtein To: fbsdqs Subject: Re: Two X servers at once In-Reply-To: <199812292254.XAA70201@peedub.muc.de> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 29 Dec 1998, Gary Jennejohn wrote: >Spike Gronim writes: >>Hello. >> >> I normally run my X server at 32 bpp, and Quake2 looks strange and >>greenish at this color depth.

I just tried "startx -- :1 -bpp 8 vt9" on my system, already runing a server at 16 bpp on vt8, and it seemed to work OK (FreeBSD 2.2.8 -- the one on vt8 runs under XDM, but I don't think that should matter -- I tried both from a virtual tty and from an xterm).

To avoid splitting the sed command across two lines, sometimes something like this helps (at least under (pd)ksh): NL="\\^J" (to get ^J, type CTL-V CTL-J) ... sed -e "s/xyz/xx${NL}yy/" ... or, you can set NL="^J" and use "s/xyz/xx\\${NL}yy/", same difference.

Recently I just install it on an computer in my office. The configuration of my computer is pentinum 200; RAM 32M; Hard disk 4G; 3Com EtherLink III ISA in ISA mode network card. The procedure of install is that I: I ftp the all set of release2.2.7 from ftp.freebsd.org/pub/freebsd/release2.2.7 and save them in C: II: then I fdisk the hard disk to D: and begin to install the freebsd by boot floppy disk. III: just follow the instruction and finish the configuration. The problem is I can not figuer out the network. I got my computer's IP address, Name server, subnet mask, gateway, but how to fill the ifconfig in that form? I read the help but it does not give me enough information.

The problem is this: Win98 has password encryption enabled, Win95 does not (or close to that). You need to go into the registry and change the setting on "Enable Plain Text Password=" to the opposite of what ever it currently is (I think it is a 1 and should be changed to a 0). I believe that this is the solution to your problem.

You're in luck, I can answer this one! Take a look at natd ( /usr/sbin/natd I believe ). The manpage on natd give you all the info you need.

If you are installing a recent version of FreeBSD ( 2.2.8 and 3.0 of course definitely falling into this category ) then the version of qpopper listed in the ports/packages is the newest and as far as I've heard there aren't any security issues. I played with some of the other options, mostly with the idea that it would be nice to get imap going. The biggest problem I had with imap was the clients.

I installed it after reading a comparison between Linux and FreeBSD on www.linuxworld.com. I currently use Debian/GNU Linux. I would like to ask a couple of questions: 1. Is there any special reason the ``core'' packages (bin, manpages) are split up into ~240,000 byte sections? Why not floppy sized sections, or some other size? 2. Can FreeBSD continue where it left off when installing/upgrading over an intermitant network? My (free) ISP hangs up after an hour. That and I use a 14.4 modem. It's not as bad as it sounds. I use cron or at jobs, wget, and some simple shell scripts to automate downloading while I sleep. 3. Does the source code and ports collection come on a typical FreeBSD cd? 4. Is the ports collection available in a big gzip'd tarball, instead of having to retrieve it one file and directory at a time? I tried get ports.tar.gz in FTP, which didn't work, although get ports.tar did. 5. When I installed a few packages (precomiled), They were installed un the /usr/local hierarchy. Some package info was also stored in /var/db/package-name. Is this db info used by any package tools or anything? sysinstall didn't seem to know I had already installed some packages. Thanks for taking the time to help. -- Jim Foltz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 30 11:47:28 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA24075 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 30 Dec 1998 11:47:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.lgcy.com (mail.lgcy.com [209.180.85.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA24067 for ; Wed, 30 Dec 1998 11:47:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jbean@ah-ha.com) Received: from [208.254.232.148] by mail.ah-ha.com (NTMail 3.03.0018/1.bjrv) with ESMTP id ya013908 for ; Wed, 30 Dec 1998 12:46:54 -0700 Message-ID: <368A82E5.1FC75267@ah-ha.com> Date: Wed, 30 Dec 1998 12:45:42 -0700 From: Jay Bean Reply-To: jbean@ah-ha.com Organization: Ah-ha.com Your Internet Guide to the world!

The price seems decent, and the configuration seems a little easier so I might even be able to pass it onto some of the more junior techs. We have a few UUCP partial feeds still, but I can parse that off onto another INN box so I all the DNEWS thingy will be doing is taking a full feed and 2 partial feeds and our one big nnrpd server. ---Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mike Tancsa, tel 01.519.651.3400 Network Administrator, noc@sentex.net Sentex Communications www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 30 12:00:07 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA25494 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 30 Dec 1998 12:00:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from nefertiti.lightningweb.com (nefertiti.lightningweb.com [198.68.191.157]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA25487 for ; Wed, 30 Dec 1998 12:00:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from keith@lightningweb.com) Received: from localhost (keith@localhost) by nefertiti.lightningweb.com (8.8.7/8.8.5) with SMTP id MAA19438 for ; Wed, 30 Dec 1998 12:01:15 -0800 (PST) Date: Wed, 30 Dec 1998 12:01:14 -0800 (PST) From: Keith Woodman To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: tcp_input.c 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 Yet another newbie question.

Yes, you need to compile a new kernel and install it for the patch to take effect. If you're not familiar with building a new kernel see the Handbook section on same. It's really easy.

Hi, I have been using a Conner floppy tape for 4 years to do this... > When I run the command 'dump -f /dev/rft0 /usr', I get the message "DUMP: > bad sblock magic number" and dump quits. The floppy tape support is different from standard tapes, you need to use the program 'ft' to access the tapes. The standard 'ft' program is pretty limited (it only allows a single archive per tape) but some years ago an improved ft called lft was posted to the lists (search for it on the lists or mail me directly for a copy) that allows multiple archives on a tape. With the lft (or ft) program you can dump like this: dump /usr | lft -a OR dump /usr | ft > Does dump support floppy tape drives, or am I missing something? > Also, does the 'ft' command (ala, 'tar cvzf - /usr | ft "/usr save"') > support multiple-tape spanning? Yes, as does lft. > I'm a newbie looking for a quick, simple way to backup before I make world > and build a custom kernal. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Simple you get, but I have never called my floppy tape quick....

It is an ISA card not a pci. The lnc0 driver will find the card when I give it the Address. It identifies the chip and the MAC address, but then the computer locks, doesn't finish booting and I have to power it off. The driver does not say it supports this card or chip. I am using 2.2.7 right now. Does any one know if there is a driver available or if I am doing something wrong.

Well, you don't give us much to go on, but I think that wiring down your device names would be the answer. That's how I solve a similar situation on my test machine.

It will then allocate more as they are needed up until it hits the max, 8192 in this case. I really like the output of netstat -m on 3.0 much better than on 2.2.x, since it displays the max mbuf's also. > 0 requests for memory denied > 0 requests for memory delayed > 0 calls to protocol drain routines > > Is the 96% in use something I should be worrying about?

What I have appears to be a hung system. Same symtom on 2.2.7 & 2.2.8. I've got kernel ppp configured (user-level would not work for me) on a USR03030 Sportster X2 mumble. It is a 333 Pentium from Micron. Everything works until I stress the modem, for example, by ftp'ing a large file. I've eliminated X software by reproducing it on the text console. All things appear to hang, though I don't have a network to check it for life over the net. What I would like to do is interupt the system and get a thread list or stack from the thread the CPU is on. UnixWare has a kernel debugger that you can use directly on the console and an interupt keyboard sequence. I've put in the options DDB and BREAK_TO_ DEBUGGER, however, p. 255 of "The Complete FreeBSD" indicates that BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER only works if you have the console redirected to a serial port. I don't happen to have a VT100 handy and configuring my Pilot to act as one is a lot of work just to run the debugger. Any suggestions? If there is a better way for me to submit this problem, please let me know.

Use Ctrl-Alt-Esc to enter it. My only concern is that it might not be easy for you to find out what the problem is. ddb isn't the world's best kernel debugger. There is no threading in FreeBSD, and ddb can't even give you a stack trace from another process. In the case of a hang, you'll probably find a trace back to the idle process, which doesn't tell you very much. You might get a little more out of kernel gdb. Build a debug kernel, described on page 272-273, take a dump, described on page 87-88, and use gdb -k to debug it, as described in the online handbook, chapter 22 and http://www.lemis.com/vinum_debugging.html. This is an unusual problem. Is there anything unusual about your configuration?

Apparently it's often the case that this happens when, after a period of inactivity, a machine with APM or other power management has spun down the disk, and activity causes the disk to be spun up again. But this isn't the case all the time, or so I read; this is one of those other cases. So, I have what might be a new data point to add. The interrupt timeouts happen when my computer is active, and APM is completely disabled, but only after I have been playing with SoundBlaster 16 bit audio. The machine is an IBM Intellistation Pro M model 6898-22U, a 333 MHz Pentium II. The on-board Crystal audio is disabled and a SoundBlaster AWE32 is installed with (what I believe to be) the default correct PNP settings, and the 2.2.8-RELEASE-based kernel is recompiled to reflect this. I have the port for amp compiled, which I use to play the occasional mp3 from the command line. During play of the mp3, frequent pauses (every minute or three) will result, and the first two times the pauses occur, the disk activity light is on, the rest of the machine pauses, then the interrupt timeout error message results. After the first two times, the interrupt timeout error may not result (but sometimes does), but the pauses still occur. The mp3 file is stored on the local disk. Sometimes, after these timeouts occur, I will be unable to perform a "df" command (even as root), and the system will not shut down properly afterwards. If, while playing the mp3 file, I continuously generate disk activity (for instance, a du -s from root, with all sources installed), the interrupt timeouts and pauses seem to occur much less often (but they still do occur). The disk drive is a Seagate ST36530A, which according to the web site, may have Ultra DMA problems. I don't know much about UDMA, and the IBM BIOS doesn't really say anything directly about UDMA, only something about read-ahead on/off and "Standard" or "High Performance" mode for the disk (not the controller). I've tried all four combinations of these settings and there seems to have been no difference in the pauses. When not playing mp3's at all, the system seems very stable. I'm thinking my next move may be to buy the OpenSound drivers and use the on-board Crystal audio, and see if there is an improvement. I don't think the pauses are occurring under Windows 95 (no Myth II Demo for FreeBSD yet), but I am not certain, plus Windows doesn't provide any diagnostic messages. I'd try it more under Windows, but the machine is busy running more important tasks... Anyway, that's my data point, and hopefully someone can use this information, or, if it enables anyone to help me to bypass the problems (so I can play mp3s again, my newfound joy at work; I was going to try to rip my whole Buzzcocks collection), I thank you in advance. dw A bug in my MUA causes news.announce.newusers font to be sent to beneficiaries and senders of UCE/SPAM. @ mcs.net Wishes are like dishes.

Background; when compiling tcp_wrappers-7.6 from source libwrap.a is created. In the FreeBSD port, however, there is an additional lib, libwrap.so.7.6 (and a symblink to it from libwrap.so). OK, my question, what is the difference between libwrap.a and libwrap.so.7.6, under what circumstances is each one used, and how do I create libwrap.so.7.6 from sources?

My filter (with gs) and printcap of my FreeBSD box is performing correctly when priting from my FreeBSD box. However, I can't print from my Win98 box. I have samba installed (share mode), file sharing is fine, but I have problem with printer sharing. Which printer driver shall I install on the Win98 box? I tried install Epson Stylus COLOR 600 driver, but it checks the printer status and show a big cross (I think it means not ready, or no such printer) on its GUI. I also tried installing HP postscript drivers, but it prompts for password (what password? it is a share; file sharing doesn't ask for password, so why printing does?) On the other hand, I successfully tested printing from smbclient //xxx/xxxx -P. Anyway, the following is my the setting in smb.conf: [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no guest ok = no writable = no printable = yes Anything worong with it? It is from sam.conf.default, I did't make any change for pritner. I appreciate any assistance. Thank you very much in advance. Happy New Year!

Windows convienently modified my BIOS info without me knowing. I found this out when running a DOS memory test on some unknown memory and the machine suspended itself every 10 minutes or so. I fixed it back the way _I_ wanted it and now Windows has a yellow ! on the APM device. Not that I plan on resolving that "problem". I just get this feeling I'm asking for it with Windows on this machine.

Postfix was formerly known as VMailer, and has had a good year or two of development by a rather well respected person with a pretty good security track record. The reason altavista doesn't see it is because the postfix.org thing is rather recent, as is the name (to avoid a potential trademark conflict). I regularly see stuff that's months out of date from altavista.

Happy holidays!!! 2 questions about backups: 1) With the default setup of the 3 partitions of FreeBSD (/usr , /var , the rest) is it a good idea to backup only data files (on a web server). I am used to make a full backup every time on a tape a work. But at home, I can't afford a tape backup a doing a full bk means more than a 1.2 Gig ! It seems to me that data is every where and I risk to loose data... 2) this leads to my second question: What are my options for a good and AFFORDABLE backup that would be used with FreeBSD AND Win95 since my HD is split with 2 OS. Does Imation LS120 compatible with FBSD? It seems like the only solution is to have a second HD with 2 partitions (DOS and BSD) and a sliding tray to remove the device. That way, with a 5Gig HD, I would be able to backup FreeBSD in Full mode. Do you have suggestions on this matter? -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Marc Andre Paquin, Dir.

The FreeBSD Alpha port is coming along quite nicely.

Thanks, I didn't know the answer to your question. So I went to www.freebsd.org and entered "dec alpha" in the search window at the bottom left corner of the page. The first result listed was http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ10.html where it states the following: "FreeBSD 3.x currently runs on the DEC Alpha as well as the x86 architecture. Some interest has also been expressed in a SPARC port, but details on this project are not yet clear. If your machine has a different architecture and you need something right now, we suggest you look at NetBSD or OpenBSD." There was a great deal of information available (more than 25 hits). I suggest you look them over at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/search.cgi?words=dec+alpha&max=1000&source=www hth -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary http://www.FreeBSDDiary.com/freebsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 31 10:16:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA29196 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 31 Dec 1998 10:16:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from uniqsite.uniqsite.com (uniqsite.com [209.249.66.9]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA29189 for ; Thu, 31 Dec 1998 10:16:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from timm@uniqsite.com) Received: from localhost (timm@localhost) by uniqsite.uniqsite.com (8.9.1/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA05311 for ; Thu, 31 Dec 1998 10:18:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from timm@uniqsite.com) Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 10:18:29 -0800 (PST) From: Tim Moony To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Wierd DNS behavior (cont.)

I have a small LAN, cat5 with 2 hubs. 1 FreeBSD machine, w/ Samba acting as a file server. All the rest are some flavor of Windoze. The file transfer speed (I was looking in trafshow) to one of the win machines was pathetic, it was getting about 8kb/sec. The rest of the machines perform well on the network. My problem is, I don't know where to start, I don't know network troubleshooting that well. If the FreeBSD machine works well with the others, can it still be a problem with the FBSD machine? (probably not but I'm asking). I thought to try switching the hub the win machine was sitting on, didn't help. I know it could be the cable, I'll try switching that tonight. I also could try the card, granted that was working properly at some time in the past. Does anyone out there have any suggestions for things I can try or places I can look to for help?

Here's an example sequence: % perl test 915133603-512 ... 915133613-512 could not share: LE::Object=HASH(0x152db0), No space left on device at /usr/le/lib/LE/Object.pm line 264. Segmentation fault (core dumped) "could not share:..." is my error from a die() call, 'No space left on device' is the given system error. And the seg fault, well, that's defiantly not *my* fault ;-). Thinking that I needed more shared memory I promptly rebuild my kernel with the following parameters: # This provides support for System V shared memory. # options SYSVSHM # enable for memory options SYSVSEM # enable for semaphores options SYSVMSG # enable for messaging options SHMMAXPGS=8192 # 32MB of sharable memory options SHMMNI=4096 # more shared memory identifiers options SHMSEG=1024 # shared memory segs/process Which seems to work pretty well: % ipcs -M shminfo: shmmax: 33554432 (max shared memory segment size) shmmin: 1 (min shared memory segment size) shmmni: 4096 (max number of shared memory identifiers) shmseg: 1024 (max shared memory segments per process) shmall: 8192 (max amount of shared memory in pages) Does anyone out there know which device is running out of space, and how I give it more?

We each run a FreeBSD machine (he runs 2.2.6-STABLE, I have 2.2.8-STABLE). We were doing a bit of drive swapping, including both machines' root drives. His went from IDE to SCSI, while mine stayed SCSI but went to a larger drive. We're both faced with the same problem, though: When we set up the labels (we put / and /var on the same drive but in separate sections), the disk labeler insisted on calling them sd0s1e and sd0s1f (aka sd0e and sd0f). The problem is that when the boot loader comes up, it looks for the kernel on sd0a, and of course, can't find it, and goes "help meeeeeee, I need a kernel" until someone types in "sd(0,e)kernel" at the console. I've tried 2 methods to solve this problem, and neither has worked. The first was to create a boot.config file with the line "0:sd(0,e)kernel" in it. Unfortunately, seeing as how the boot loader is trying to look in sd(0,a), it can't find that file either. The second was to issue this command from the shell: "nextboot -b /dev/rsd0 sd(0,e)kernel" That didn't seem to have any effect either, since when we rebooted, it still tried to look at sd(0,a), and of course, failed to find anything there. What I'm wondering is, is there any way at all to get the machines to default to sd(0,e)kernel ? My machine is now located about 750 miles away from me, and it would be difficult to walk down and type something in at the console if it dies... :) Thanks in advance for any help, and if you reply to the list, please also cc: me directly, as I will see it much sooner that way.

Those are formatted manpages. You may notice that the first time you open a manpage, you get a "Formatting manpage..." message. The man# file is being formatted (run through troff or something like that) and then stored in the cat# directory. Next time you open up that manpage, it is read straight from the cat# directory instead of the man# directory, to save time. >Are they necessary?? They seem to have the same file contents as the >man pages. Is this a UNIX thing or just a FreeBSD thing? I suppose they aren't necessary if you don't mind waiting for the manpages to format every time you open them.

Absolutely not; it helps to be somewhat familiar with PCs (what's a HD partition, what's an IRQ, etc). In fact, you can use this OS to learn how to program -- the programming tools you might pay $$$ for under Micro$oft, you can get for free (or price of the CD) under FreeBSD. Using FreeBSD, you will probably end up developing some scripting, if not programming ability sooner or later ("shell scripts" -- like batch files, but tons better, Perl, etc scripts). -- Evgeny Roubinchtein, eroubinc@u.washington.edu ...................

Till yesterday it was running all fine and even today it is running. The only problem is that at startup when system tries to mount all flesystems listed in fstab file.It mounts all filesystems cleanly except procfs where it says: "procfs not available" and hence can not continue. I then commented out the line for procfs in fstab and it became all fine. I was then worried about ps and w . Starngely though "ps" and "w" also work fine. When i try to manually load procfs file system as mount_procfs -o rw procfs /proc I get the same error: procfs filesystem not available. "df" comand also does not list proc filesystem as mounted. It could be that ps is using root filesystem for its working.Any clues!!

The same type of problem exists with NT4. Service Pack 3 and above made encrypted passwords the default and it requires a registry hack to enable plain-text passwords. This 'feature' appeared apparently about the same time that all references to Samba (including Knowledge Base known-problems) disappeared from the M$ Website. Now why would they do that when all Samba does is render NT Servers redundant :-) > > Thanks to all who responded to my post.

I have a question. Is it just me or does the -p option to /bin/sh not actually do what it it is supposed to do? I tried using -p on the initial #!/bin/sh -p line in a shell script under (a) Solaris and also (b) under FreeBSD 2.2.8 and in the BSD case, it really didn't do what I was hoping it would do, and in fact, it doesn't seem to do anything at all (even though it _is_ document for /bin/sh as doing _something_... just what exactly I can't quite make out from the FreeBSD "sh" man page). The behavior of /bin/sh when invoked with the -p option under Solaris (or under any SVR4 based system) is quite clear. It prevents the invoked shell from dropping back and setting the effective uid to the real uid and the effective GID to the real gid. This is really quite handy, because it allows you to write setuid shell scripts.... and I happen to be in need of exactly such a thing right at the moment. Anyway, like I say, -p seems to work just dandy under Solaris, but the presence (or absence) of the -p option seem to no effect whatsoever under FreeBSD 2.2.8. Why not? I was really hoping that the functionality would be the same on both systems. Is there some magic thing that I have to diddle to make this work that I don't know about, or is the kernel just being obnoxious about it, and setting the effective uid/gid back to the real uid/gid before /bin/sh even gets a change to make up its mind about this? P.S. No flames please! I have just been perusing DejaNews and I see that there are plenty of people who are adamant about the potential dangers of setuid scripts. OK, so I understand they are potentially dangerous, but please cut me some slack. I'm just trying to get a job done here. When I die and go to BOFH heaven, and when _you_ inherit my old hardware, then you can do anything you like with it. But for now, I have work that needs to get done and I really kinda need /bin/sh -p to work... so why doesn't it?

Leo ---------- From: Kevin Sheehan To: 'Leo Kliger' Subject: RE: ppp.conf script???? Date: Thursday, December 31, 1998 6:03 PM Leo, Assuming you only have the one RS232 interface on the TA (what sort of speed are you running your com port at?), then the bringing up of the second channel will be the TA (modem - whatever) responding to load. This should definitely be an option on the TA. Look for MPPP, Multilink, Bonding or similar. I have a 3com I can try and find the relevant command or S reg for if you like. Not sure if the spirit will be even close. You can bet that the charges for the second B channel will hurt if you don't stop them - or get a 2 channel XSPC or Xpress (from experience). There is also a bit of an Australian ISDN mailing list going at the moment, with people form Linux & FreeBSD camps. Let me know if you are interested and I'll try and dig out the address.

My main concern is the lack of termination on the drives. The drives are both Quantum with an SCA interface. Does anyone have any experience with this type drive? The current 2G (Viking) works fine. The controller is Adaptec 2940 U/AHA-2940UW . The boot used to warn abount auto-termination until I diddled with something in the scsi bios. My scsi cd uses a 50 pin cable on the other connection and is on the other end of the chain. The new drive would have to go on the same cable with the old drive and the one closest to the 2940 would need to be set un-terminated. Is this just sort of a no-brainer that I don't need to worry about? Is the 2940 that damn smart? Both drives, by the way, come with a 68-80 pin adaptor. The big drive number is QM-39100AL-SCA. Since it came from Frye's, it has no manual. The following is part of a web page at Quantum which (I believe) refers to my drive: "The Atlas III SCA drive does not provide for physical configuration of the SCSI ID. Quantum disk drives that utilize the 80-pin SCA connector do not require any jumper configuration for SCSI ID. Systems that use SCA connections, typically, auto-configure the SCA device. This configuration is determined by the system at start-up or by user definition during system setup. Contact your system manufacturer for details on setting SCSI ID. " I know this is a hardware question. If you know of a better forum for it, please tell me a place to go (besides Hell). I do have other FreeBSD questions, which I'll put under separate posts.

It seems to work ok.... That's about the way to do it. 3.0 gdb doesn't currently support a.out, but I believe somebody is working on it. Have I missed a question in this message?

I don't know how to shut it off though. If the cat* directories don't exist, man won't create them. Man's manpage doesn't say that, but I know I read somewhere it's a feature for people wanting to save disk space, rather than a bug. I personally couldn't stand the delay, but if you're really low on disk space it might help. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
