What line would I have to add to /etc/fstab to do this? Shouldn't it be: /dev/fd0 /A ufs rw 2 2 where these entries have been spaced apart to reflect the column structure of this file. I say this because the device entry I thought should be for the actual device and not for the controller (as in the cdrom's case), like the IDE harddrive partition entries in this file. Also the filesystem column for my cdrom in this file is for the cdrom controller and not for IDE cdrom which I have. Isn't this unusual? I mean given the above statement shouldn't this be the actual device (/dev/wcd0 in this case). And why is there a "c" at the end of this controller - I never knew controllers had unix partitions. My last point on cdroms is that if I'm to correctly access this device (cdrom) under fbsd (ie. mount/umount) then should I not have an entry "ro,auto" under the access type column for the cdrom in /etc/fstab. Because if I had just ro, I'm thinking this may cause probs.?!? Finally, I currently have a read-only /dos mountpoint point on my fbsd installation so that I can access my Windows files. Now is it possible for me to have r/w access to this filesystem - if not why not(though I probably know what the answer is going to be here)? I've heard that under linux it is possible to have a Windows icon on your Linux desktop that enables you to open Windows while running Linux, with a simple click (without the need for rebooting). I know that you guys are working on Windows emulation but is it possible to have one of these. If not, then I su[ppose I could always get this icon and run it under a Linux emulator session. That's it.

This file can be written only by root. There has already been a problem in "su", i.e. because of not deactivating the Kerberose completely, I can't [and couldn't] do "su" from another account. So I need to access the system by root to edit the ttys file, but I can't access to system by root (becasue console is insecure and su doesn't work!). I tried to edit the file by booting the machine in single user mode, but as it mounts "/" file system as read-only file system, it isn't possible to edit the /etc/ttys. Please let me know how I can get rid of it, if anybody has any idea!

I'd guess it's similar to the install from Windows 95. That is, don't do it from Windows at all, reboot into DOS and do it from there. In fact, you may not need to do that: just download boot.flp (in binary of course, some people get it in ascii by mistake) and make a boot disk (you also need fdimage.exe). Then download the other things you need, put them under C:\FREEBSD, and boot from the floppy disk. Then select install from DOS partition at the right part, and off you go (hopefully).

I don't know anything about BusLogic, on the other side I'm very happy with my new Tyan Thunder 100 DLUAN motherboard. The onboard SCSI is well supported and same for onboard ethernet.

To backup I am using: tar -cv /* to backup to the tape. Successful recovery steps were: I wanted to upgrade the os while I was at it and I installed a basic install running the features I wanted then I put the mission crititcal data back on it via: tar -x stuff_I_wanted_back (mostly apps that I am serving from Samba) while located in / on the disk. This all went well but, but when I restored the home dirs then I lost my link to /home so I just recreated it by: ln -s /usr/home /home I hope that was right it seems to be working. My question are: Does tar not support this? Should I switch to dump and why? All thoughts welcome so I may improve my disaster recovery plan.

Look at the FAQ, or even at these lists... The first suggestion people make is that you might want to enable logging to see what ppp is actually doing. When you do that, you'll see that after sending ghulam as your password (I take it that's a fake password!), you're expecting your ISP to send ``col:ppp''. I'd be surprised if this is really what you want. Perhaps there's a space missing somewhere ? Also, I take it your mailer not only mangled your message into html, but also stripped the leading spaces that you have in your config file. The only lines that should not be indented are the labels themselves. Later versions of ppp look out for this and moan a bit when they see unindented lines that don't have a ``:'' as the last character. -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....

Are you sure you're using the latest version of ppp? I had the same error message until I downloaded the newest ppp from www.freebsd.org/~brian/ . As I obviously didn't have a working ppp connection yet, I downloaded it onto a floppy from a non-BSD partition. To install it (as here the handbook is not idiot-proof), I did the following: mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt to mount the floppy mkdir -p /usr/ports/name-of-new-directory to create a directory to install to cd /usr/ports/new-directory change to new directory tar xzvf /mnt/name-of-pkg-on-floppy to unpack package from floppy cd /usr/ports/new-directory/name-of-pkg make make install It worked like a charm. PPP is up and running and I've made many more packages while connected. Now I just have to learn what to do with them:) If this is not your problem, re-read the FAQ at www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ160.html and let me know how she goes.

I "scsiformat"-ed the drive and then did an fdisk from within /stand/sysinstall and created two paritions (each about 1GB). Then, I tried to go back to NT to DOS format the two partitions. This locked up my machine and now I can't access the disk at all from within NT or FreeBSD to do a format properly. Is there anything I can do to salvage my disk? Thanks!

Maybe you'll drop just a word or two with a pointer to a sample code? I'm now implementing (almost close to a victory :) a protocol for communication with an external device(s) over RS-232 serial port(s). FreeBSD-3.0, of course. :) Comparatively simple protocol, character oriented, but not that dumb at all. What I need is to implement multiple timers for protocl FSM to react onto, first for inter-character timeout on input, second one for write timeout, and several more "global" ones like the "link idle" timeout etc. Modelling an approach of Harvest (or Squid) seems to be a bit of overkill (or is it the only way to go?). I tried to use select() for read/write operations, and ualarm() for "bigger" ones, but the mix won't work (SIGALRM breaks select(), sure...) Or shall I drop select() and use ualarm() and longjmp()? What I badly need is a pointer to some really well-done implementation (I'll look at userland PPP now, maybe other ones?) of a similar purpose, to use as a reference.

I understand enough Spanish to figure out what you're trying to say. However, I don't speak nearly enough to be able to write back in Spanish, so I hope you speak English or well (or can get this translated). It sounds like you want to automate your backup process to run from a crontab. As it is right now, do you run a tar/gzip command from the command line, or do you have a script that runs it? I would recommend writing a script to back up what you want backed up, and then set up a cron job to run that script daily, or weekly, or however often you want it to run. I'm assuming you know how to use crontab, but if not, check the man page for crontab ("man crontab") for a description of the fields.

The scenario: Pentioum w/ three hard drives, and I'm trying to load BSD on the third one with NT 4. I'm not sure I understood the instructions correctly, but I interpreted the 1024 cylinder issue to mean that I should set a small BSD early in the diskdrive. So I've got a FAT to install NT (500 MB), a BSD (500 MB), free space (500 MB for a later LINUX install), about 2.5 GB for NT, about 1.5 GB for BSD, and some more for LINUX. I obviously want to load the boot loader. I've eliminated all of the conflicts from the H/W list, and also removed all those items that were not found during the system interrogation. I get through all of the screens, mount "/", swap, and "/usr". Do all of the good stuff and presto I'm done. It tells me there were difficulties and to check the VTY1 (or whatever it's called). There is nothing reported there. However, when I quit the install there seems to be a message that it couldn't find C? I don't understand. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been told for 15 years that UNIX is a great system, but every time (well is MicroPort a time?) I run into some rather obtuse problem that really seems to negate the claims, i.e. I knocked out an NT installation trying to sort through this a week ago. I'd really like to try this baby out.

Diagnostic notes: 'top' shows CPU hanging around 90% idle the entire time the problem is happening. telnet from the same system that's trying to retrieve a file via FTP works just fine - the machine is perfectly responsive while this is happening. problem occurs with ftp connection originating from Win'98 and Redhat 5.1 FTP transmissions happen in small bursts at very regular intervals - about 3/4 sec apart Any clues as to what could be causing this?

When using tar with /dev/nrst0 for two consecutive files, only > the first file written to the tape remains. Tar doesn't allow you to create archive files on a tape. Rather, it sees the tape itself *as* the archive file, and allows you to add files to and extract them from the archive file. If you want to add to an existing tape archive, you should theoretically be able to use the -A (append) switch on the tar command. (I've never actually tried this, so I can't verify that it actually works.) Otherwise, tar will erase the header on the tape and start a new one. By the way, when you use the -A switch, you'll probably notice a lot of tape action with nothing going by on your screen. This is due to tar having to wind sequentially through the archive file on the tape to find the end, so it can start adding. Another solution would be to use dump instead of tar. I actually have not gotten dump to work properly, but your luck may be better than mine. :) ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

Run it with the '-P m' option to force it to multiplexed mode, which is much happier for your configuration.

FreeBSD does not support the 53c710 chip. Go buy a Adaptec 2940 or a Diamond Fireport 40 and attach your SCSI devices to that. The NetFlex should work fine with the tl or lnc driver. You should install 2.2.7 instead of 2.2.5.

Yes, create /etc/rc.shutdown as a shell script for what you want the system to do at shutdown, which in your case is bring down squid gracefully. The system will wait for rc.shutdown to complete before forcibly killing things.

The fxp driver is located in sys/pci/if_fxp.c, which is why I asked this question. The card in question is ISA, not PCI, and I didn't see anything is sys/i386/isa that referenced the Intel 82557 chipset. If, as I suspect, the driver for the PCI card is incapable of driving the ISA card, I'm interested in pointers for modifying another ISA network driver to support this card, like "if_ZZZ.c is an archetypical ISA network driver, start with it, but look at the if_fxp driver too". To me, that sounds more like a topic for freebsd-net, not -questions.

If it does then just pass it the raw postscript and it'll DTRT. Also is this going through a JetDirect card mounted in the LJ or an intermediary server?

Hm, that sounds like flakey discs or flakey drive. Can it read discs burned as vanillia ISO9660 okay? FreeBSD does not support the Joilet extensions.

We're still trying to figure out the root cause of that message. I believe it's partially related to a flakey hardware or power management clock.

It will be in a directory called "2.2.7-RELEASE". Its easiest to do what I did when installing 3.0 on several fresh-computers. Setup anon-ftp and have the dir under it (ie /pub/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE) and tell the installation diskette use your own FTP server... tell it like: ftp.myhost.blah.com/pub/FreeBSD and it will goto /pub/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE......

So, you want to monitor someone's transmissions? In the United States this is marginally illegal, so there isn't a lot of examples or support on implementing it, although with creative use of sendmail rules it can be done. See www.sendmail.com. You should evaluate whether this type of functionality is really necessary. You can always just add the desired target email address as a cc: when writing the mail.

I have an H-P LaserJet MP4 (Postscript) and have already taken .tex files, used the latex->dvi, the dvi->ps and output the ps directly to the printer... Latex, however, seems rather limited compared to Postscript (my first impression). But noone (it seems) actually codes in Postscript, something generally interprets and converts to Postscript (a driver program). All I want to do is write an invoicing program in PERL which uses: 1. Fonts 2. A4 Letter 3. A graphic image (small) at the top. 4. Right aligned text as well as left aligned (and centered). Like I said it seems Latex is rather limited but if that's the way I must go then so be it. ...comments?

I don't know where you get this idea. tar does allow you to create archive files on a tape. That's what it's there for. You're talking about explicitly appending to a tar archive, which used to be popular, but is a Bad Thing with streamers. # tar clf /dev/nrst0 / # tar clf /dev/nrst0 /usr # tar clf /dev/nrst0 /home This will give you three backups with the contents of each of the file systems /, /usr and /home. In Jordan's case, I'm pretty sure that both files are there. Unfortunately, streamers are a little sloppy writing file marks, and it's possible for the following to happen with the tape written above: # mt -f /dev/nrst0 rewind # tar tvf /dev/nrst0 (list of / file system) # tar tvf /dev/nrst0 (nothing) # tar tvf /dev/nrst0 (nothing) # tar tvf /dev/nrst0 (list of /usr file system) # tar tvf /dev/nrst0 (nothing) # tar tvf /dev/nrst0 (list of /home file system).

However one should be able to append a *tape* file after the first archive as Jordan is attempting with the no-rewind tape device. Considering the evidence stated that only the first session survives on the tape then somebody is having problems finding the 2nd. Jordan: "tar -tvf /dev/nrst0" is not going to show all the files the first time thru. After you see the first set repeat the same command and you should see the 2nd set. Playback is same as recording, you invoked tar twice to create, you have to invoke twice to read. You could get to the 2nd set with "mt rew; mt fsf 1" rather than using tar to forward past the first tape file. I write multiple "archives" to a single tape all the time. The tcopy(1) utility goes out of its way to detect multiple "tape files". The practice is *very* common. -- 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 have an NEC Versa V/50 laptop with 16 meg of ram and a Toshiba 250 meg hard drive. I'm attempting to install a minimal FreeBSD system (just the /bin distribution). I have successfully gone through the novice install, and it all seemed to work. I installed the normal boot manager, and used the "work and play with others" option. However, when I reboot, I get the following error: bad disklabel cant find boot.config cant find boot.help Then, I hit enter at the boot: prompt and get the message: Can't find kernel I attempted to boot directly to 0:wd(0,a)kernel and get the same message. I also tried disabeling the IDE drive in the BIOS, but that resulted in the error "No Boot Device". I have not been able to get the machine to boot at all. From the mailing lists, it seems as if the partiion got "clobbered". My question is, what caused this, and what can I do to correct the problem? I realize I will most likely have to reinstall.

So, you want to monitor someone's transmissions? In the United States this is marginally illegal, so there isn't a lot of examples or support on implementing it, although with creative use of sendmail rules it can be done. See www.sendmail.com. You should evaluate whether this type of functionality is really necessary. You can always just add the desired target email address as a cc: when writing the mail.

To > me, that sounds more like a topic for freebsd-net, not -questions. You must mean the Pro/10 then, there isn't an ISA Pro/100. The Pro/10 and Pro/10+ are supported by the ex device driver. Poking around in /usr/share/man/man4/i386 should be very helpful. As I said before, "is xxx supported on FreeBSD" type questions are best asked in the -questions newsgroup, not in -net. This is a device driver issue; the -net mailing list is for "Discussions of networking in general and TCP/IP source code in particular." (This is the Majordomo charater for the list.) This usage has typically been viewed as the "upper" layers of the network stack(s); device drivers are a hardware issue more appropriate for -questions and -hardware. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

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 If it ain't one thing, it's another. First of all, thanks to everyone (particularly Norman Rice) who helped me get APS Filter compiled and working. Well... compiled, anyway... working is still another story. The printer works just fine if it's hooked up directly to my FreeBSD machine's parallel port. However, to throw a wrench in the works a bit, I hooked up an HP JetDirect EX Plus on my internal network and assigned it an IP address. I can print from both of my NT boxes with no problem, and before upgrading to the latest version of APS Filter, I could print to it from the FreeBSD machine as well. The reason I upgraded was so that it would support my new (well, new to me) HP DeskJet 870. I had an old HP DeskJet 520 black & white before. To make my print jobs go to the JetDirect box, I made one simple change to the /etc/printcap that APS Filter's installation generated... the same change I made previous to upgrading, which was to change this line in each printer definition: :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ to: :rm=10.0.0.5:\ Where 10.0.0.5 is the IP address of my JetDirect box. APS Filter created 5 printer definitions: ASCII mono, Auto mono, ASCII color, Auto color, and Raw. If I send a print job to "raw", it comes out, although it loses any formatting. If I print to any of the others, I see the JetDirect activity light blink a few times, and then I get this mailed to me: Date: 9 Nov 1998 07:39:24 -0000 From: root@dreamhaven.net Reply-To: root@ds9.dreamhaven.org To: root@ds9.dreamhaven.org Subject: lp printer job "" Your printer job could not be printed Upon checking my log files, I noticed this for each time I'd try to print: Nov 8 23:39:19 ds9 lpd[18586]: restarting lp Nov 8 23:39:23 ds9 last message repeated 3 times Nov 8 23:39:24 ds9 lpd[18586]: lp: job could not be sent to remote host (cfA011ds9.dreamhaven.org) Nov 8 23:39:24 ds9 lpd[18586]: mail sent to user root about job on printer lp (FATALERR) I've no idea what to check. lpr doesn't seem to have any sort of "debug" option, so I can't figure out where it's barfing. By the way, with the previous version of APS Filter, everything worked fine; I was just printing to my 870C with APS Filter thinking it was a 500. I believe the problem lies somewhere with the communication between lpd and the JetDirect, since a direct hookup works fine.

I run X-Windows and no, EMacs in _not_ an option ;) You'll get as many answers as respondents. :-) Have a look at vim as well. It's a pretty advanced programmer's editor with a vi-like interface. Syntax highlighting, the works. Also has an X version with pull-down menus, etc. Apart from that, install everything in ports/editors and see which you like best. :-) -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 8 23:59:08 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA24743 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 8 Nov 1998 23:59:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.cityip.co.za (ns.cityip.co.za [196.25.223.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA24733 for ; Sun, 8 Nov 1998 23:59:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wjv@cityip.co.za) Received: from wjv by ns.cityip.co.za with local (Exim 2.05 #1) id 0zcmCM-00079N-00; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 09:57:18 +0200 Message-ID: <19981109095718.B27455@cityip.co.za> Date: Mon, 9 Nov 1998 09:57:18 +0200 From: Johann Visagie To: junkmale@xtra.co.nz, questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: "There are stopped jobs" References: <199811090637.TAA04546@witch.xtra.co.nz> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <199811090637.TAA04546@witch.xtra.co.nz>; from Dan Langille on Mon, Nov 09, 1998 at 07:37:55PM +1300 X-PGP: ftp://ftp.cityip.co.za/users/wjv/pubkey.asc Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 09 Nov 1998 at 19:37 SAST, Dan Langille wrote: > > I'm running 2.2.7 RELEASE.

So, depending on which shell you're using, you can use the shell-builtin command "jobs" to check on the identity of those stopped jobs. -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 9 00:02:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA25058 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 00:02:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.cityip.co.za (ns.cityip.co.za [196.25.223.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA25053 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 00:02:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wjv@cityip.co.za) Received: from wjv by ns.cityip.co.za with local (Exim 2.05 #1) id 0zcmGt-00079n-00; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 10:01:59 +0200 Message-ID: <19981109100159.C27455@cityip.co.za> Date: Mon, 9 Nov 1998 10:01:59 +0200 From: Johann Visagie To: Elston Lewis , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Requessting information References: <199811090837.EAA24577@telem2.sintmaarten.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <199811090837.EAA24577@telem2.sintmaarten.net>; from Elston Lewis on Tue, Nov 10, 1998 at 03:47:18AM -0400 X-PGP: ftp://ftp.cityip.co.za/users/wjv/pubkey.asc Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 10 Nov 1998 at 03:47 SAST, Elston Lewis wrote: > > I would like to know what I would have to do in order in install FREE > BSDI's software, > completely from a floppy drive? Err, you mean FreeBSD. "BSDI" is a company which produces a commercial version of BSD Unix known as BSD/OS. You can find out more about them at http://www.bsdi.com/ FreeBSD is a freely available version of BSD Unix maintained by volunteers. You can read all about _them_ at http://www.freebsd.org/ You can find FreeBSD's installation instructions at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html > What are all the functions and abilities does the FREE BSDI server have to > offer? > would I be able to run (WWW, FTP, DNS, Dial-up, EMAIL, account > management,PROXY ) services? Since the Internet as we know it today was originally built on BSD Unix, you can expect that FreeBSD can do anything a generic Internet server should be able to do, and do it superlatively well. That will include all the functions you mention above. -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 9 00:28:07 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA28050 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 00:28:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hotmail.com (f56.hotmail.com [207.82.251.68]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id AAA28045 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 00:28:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from raha49@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 25300 invoked by uid 0); 9 Nov 1998 08:27:51 -0000 Message-ID: <19981109082751.25299.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 195.96.144.10 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Mon, 09 Nov 1998 00:27:49 PST X-Originating-IP: [195.96.144.10] From: "Nana Ni."

No visible collisions, the MTU is 1500 - FreeBSD's default. I haven't overridden this. >> Any clues as to what could be causing this? > > Bad wire? > > WHat brand is it? Good suggestion - I tried a different wire, but no dice - I still get the same problem. Thing is, if I launch an xterm or open a telnet session, typing is still perfectly responsive through the slow transfer, and 'top' says the CPU's staying 90%+ idle, so I really suspect a configuration issue, though I haven't the foggiest where to look. The card is a D-Link 10Mbps Combo 16-Bit Ethernet ISA The box is: 486/66 DEC Server (chuckle) EISA bus 24 megs RAM Adaptec 1540(?) VLB (ahc0) Diamond Stealth 64 Video VRAM VLB D-Link 10Mbps ISA (PnP off - locked at 0x280/9) PS/2 Bus Mouse & kbd Again, this happens with a 10 or a 100/10 Linksys hub, and the other two machines speak to each other (or to this box running another OS) right against the 10mbit barrier.

Beautiful - everything works. I'd like to add a cable modem into the mix, but since that provides a dynamic IP, I'm going to keep the PPP dialup active. The behavior I'd -like- is for client requests to come in on the static 56k (later ISDN) line, with data going out through the cable modem. Is this possible, or even automatic if I make my route "lo0 ed0 tun0" (loopback, then ether, then user mode PPP)? Will remote clients accept responses coming back from a different IP address than the one from which a session was requested? A seperate, related question - assuming I get the above working: If the cable modem bandwidth is ever saturated, will outbound data automatically shift to the ISDN unit, or would I need to configure routing software to accomplish this? If I choose an ISDN router instead of a serial ISDN TA, would it be necessary to place the router on a seperate ethernet card to accomplish this, or is FreeBSD smarter than I'm giving it credit for?

I have about 32M for /, 32-64M for /var, maybe 64-128M for swap, and figure I need about 600M for /usr which includes /usr/ports and /usr/{src|obj}. The rest I allocate to /home where I have /usr/local, home dirs, etc. I usually make /usr/ports a link to /usr/local/ports or something, and /us/rports/distfiles to /usr/local/src because the dists can get large.

I don't believe it for a second. I'm sorry that you had so many problems with FreeBSD after you lost a disk but, to be perfectly honest, most of your problems were of your own making. It is an accepted principle in Systems Administration that one restores a backup onto a system running the same release of an OS that the backup was made on. You should have install that same version of FreeBSD that you were running on to the new hard disk and then restored your backup. Another accepted principle in Systems Administration is that one never puts a new version of an OS into production without testing it first also one never puts a ".0" version of anything into production. You should have stuck to the version of FreeBSD that you were running and tried 3.0 on another box to see if it would work properly in your environment and on your hardware. I am hoping that you will give FreeBSD another try, it served you well for 4 years. If not, I wish you well.

Let me get this straight; You had a system crash, so instead of re-installing a known good system, you upgrade a production system to the bleeding edge (3.0) without any prior testing? Honestly, this was a mistake, and the version that should have been installed was installed was 2.2.7. > cryptic errors. Sendmail keeps giving me an error: > sendmail[131]: NOQUEUE: low on space (have 0, SMTP-DAEMON needs 101 in > /var/spool/mqueue) So, sendmail gives you an error message saying that it is out of disk space, and you blame it on sendmail? No offense, but it sounds to me like the system isn't configured correctly. > To hell with FreeBSD. We are replacing all of the systems with NT versions > of sendmail. And it works great!

I don't believe it for a second. You are welcome to your opinion. If NT works better for you, then by all means, use it. FreeBSD is powerful, and can do anything that you want it to do. However, it setting it up and maintaining it does require more knowledge on the administrator's part than NT. In return, it can provide "years of trouble-free operation"(tm). You did note that FreeBSD handled your email for 4 years before a harddrive crash. Please feel free to give us a summary in 4 years from now of how well NT behaves in doing the same task. -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 9 08:29:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA21632 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 08:29:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from zeus.tds.edu (zeus.tds.edu [38.149.131.15]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA21623 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 08:29:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from willow@tds.edu) Received: from zeus.tds.edu (willow@zeus.tds.edu [38.149.131.15]) by zeus.tds.edu (8.9.1a/8.9.1a) with ESMTP id LAA17734; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 11:29:01 -0500 (EST) Date: Mon, 9 Nov 1998 11:28:57 -0500 (EST) From: Willow To: Josef Grosch cc: pat.groce@state.sd.us, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: unix is a problem: free bsd doesn't help In-Reply-To: <19981109082506.D10016@mooseriver.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=X-UNKNOWN Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from QUOTED-PRINTABLE to 8bit by hub.freebsd.org id IAA21628 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Speaking of .0 releases, what are the chances he bought NT4.0, only to upgrade when NT5.0 comes out...At Micro$oft all releases are .0 releases :) -- willow@tds.edu -- On Mon, 9 Nov 1998, Josef Grosch wrote: > On Mon, Nov 09, 1998 at 10:01:11AM -0600, pat.groce@state.sd.us wrote: > > We had been running freebsd for 4 years to handle our internet email.

(which basically don't do much useful at all with such large files). >From all advice, the machine concerned (PII/400MHz, presently 128MB RAM, soon 256 MB) can do this easily, but I would like to understand how to assess resource usage, and know that I'm approaching limits *before* something degrades or breaks. The server may well get considerably busier in the future, and will soon have a fair bit of Perl cgi running in addition to straight html/shtml pages. For instance, an Apache rule is "never swap", so how do I know if this is imminent? Looking at displays like systat -v and top, there seem to be different numbers for memory usage on the different displays, and in any event, I'm not sure what they mean or how to find out. Top displays two numbers, "size" and "res" for each process. If I look at the default Apache setup (MaxClients 150), and multiply these values for Apache's kids (~580 and ~1100) by 150, I get 87MB and 165MB. What does this say about running out of memory? Presently, ps -aux | grep nobody | wc -l shows maybe 60-70 Apache children at busier moments. How should the Apache "MaxClients" value be scaled to installed memory? The only other big memory user at present is named (caching only, for reverse DNS), at maybe 10MB for both "size" and "res". Apart from memory, what other resources should I be monitoring, and how? -- Graeme Tait - Echidna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 9 08:33:34 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA22096 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 08:33:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from samizdat.uucom.com (samizdat.uucom.com [198.202.217.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA22090 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 08:33:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cshenton@uucom.com) Received: (from cshenton@localhost) by samizdat.uucom.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) id LAA17273; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 11:33:02 -0500 To: archie@whistle.com, dave@comsite.net cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: mpd + EQL, Livingston PM2 MLLB, alternatives? mpd load high?

I'm running it between a FreeBSD-2.2.7 box to a -2.2.1 box, and to a Livingston PortMaster-2 over a single POTS line. I haven't played with multiple lines yet, but that's why I got interested in mpd in the first place. I see in the mpd-1.0b5 source there's a patch from Dave@comsite.net for Livingstons. Dave: is this for the PM's multi-line load balancing (not really *multi-link* PPP)? PM2 or only PM3? POTS or only ISDN? If mpd works with Livingston PM2 POTS, I'll probably bail on the old FreeBSD box I installed there to use as my endpoint for mpd -- might save me some complexity and trouble. But I know the PM2 will only do MLLB, not MLPPP over POTS... The mpd-1.0b5 code's dated from about Dec'97. Would you still recommend it or is user-land PPP up to snuff for multi-link/line? Archie: I notice mpd with one line is consuming 10-15% of my 486-66 CPU when doing stuff like CVSUP or FTP downloads. Is this normal? Due to the link compression? Will it increase as I add lines? The 486 is pretty much dedicated to being a dialup/router so this isn't a big concern but it does indicate scalability problems if I try to increase lines (or use even older hardware :-) If you're mpd'ing into a FreeBSD box, how are you getting it to advertise the routes? When I use pppd, I have gated advertising the route to my /28 home net, but when I use mpd, it does not. I must have something mal-configured cuz when I mpd (single-line) into the PM2, it advertises the route no problem. A sample gated.conf would be very helpful if you've got one. Thanks!

I do everything with static routes in general.. eg, set iface route default to install/deinstall a default route every time the link is brought up/down. mpd automatically handles dynamic IP, etc. I think gated should pick up mpd's static route changes.. though you may need to configure gated to better "respect" static routes..? -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 9 09:06:26 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA24688 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 09:06:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from nyx.digitaladdiction.com (nyx.digitaladdiction.com [207.239.226.70]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA24683 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 09:06:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from deker@digitaladdiction.com) Received: from localhost (deker@localhost) by nyx.digitaladdiction.com (8.9.1/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA25352 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 12:06:08 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from deker@digitaladdiction.com) X-Authentication-Warning: nyx.digitaladdiction.com: deker owned process doing -bs Date: Mon, 9 Nov 1998 12:06:08 -0500 (EST) From: Rob Deker To: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Questions about in.h and inet.h 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 So, I'm trying to compile DaVinci (a big IRC botlike thing) on a machine running 3.0-RELEASE and it uses /usr/include/netinet/in.h and /usr/include/arpa/inet.h.

I don't believe it for a second. You are welcome to your opinion. If NT works better for you, then by all means, use it. FreeBSD is powerful, and can do anything that you want it to do. However, it setting it up and maintaining it does require more knowledge on the administrator's part than NT. In return, it can provide "years of trouble-free operation"(tm). You did note that FreeBSD handled your email for 4 years before a harddrive crash.

It is allowing total morons to destroy FreeBSD's reputation due to their incompetence. 3.0R SHOULD be only installed by people with a freakin clue. Not total newbies. It has resulted in a tremendous amount of noise on this forum, because these newbies think they should be running the latest and greatest. They aren't reading the release notes or anything else. Please don't let them continue. Make 3.0R available only to those willing to certify: 1. They are NOT using it in a production environment 2. They have extensive FreeBSD experience 3. They have extensive Unix System Admin experience 4. They realize 3.X is not yet supported 5. They are not Microsoft agents looking for an opportunity to bash any non-Microsoft system 3.0R is NOT ready for prime time, i.e., it's not ready for newbies.

You need to tune the process limits for `daemon' in /etc/login.conf. Poke around on www.apache.org and in the www.freebsd.org mail archives, there are instructions for performance-tuning like this.

Actually, people not even as smart as you probably are have installed FreeBSD and successfully run ISPs with it. Microsoft will hold your hand, don't worry, girlie-man. Hans and Franz will take care of unix for you. In all seriousness, please tell your boss that you are NOT a unix system admin and if he'll fire your incompetent ass, he'll be able to afford a competent person.

I didn't know there were hidden issues! Actually, this may be a valid complaint. 2.2.7 is available from ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp, however, the link from the handbook to the install boot image at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html points to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/3.0-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp Perhaps this should be changed so that casual readers will only get the stable version of the software. (I've CC'd this to our documentation coordinator as well) FreeBSD is not perfect, and there are areas that can use some improvement. However, we also depend on people to tell us exactly where the shortcomings are. > If the system isn't configured correctly its FREEBSD'S fault! Why can't a > fresh install even stand on two legs? So what if its out of disk space? Not > my fault. It should have configured the partitions correctly from the first > place. What a joke! And you're blaming ME for the system having problems? As a matter of fact, I am. There is no "one" good configuration. If you want to run a mail server, you need enough disk space for a mail queue. If you want to set up a news server, you had better put your indexes/newsspools on seperate spindles. If you are running a webserver, /usr/local/www had better be large enough to hold your content. In short, you have to know what you want your machine to do when you set it up. > ADMIT IT! FREEBSD CAN NEVER HOLD A CANDLE TO NT. ONLY A MOUNTAIN TROLL WHO > SPENDS HIS DAYS SLOBBERING OVER A KEYBOARD HACKING SYSTEM CODE COULD EVER > GET IT WORKING. > > This os is not for the business world! Again, I'm sorry that you're having problems, but that is simply not true. FreeBSD not only handles our email, website, and internet connectivity, but also our credit card transactions, customer support, payroll, and customer financing, among other duties. The company I work for is a retail shop, so I think they easily qualify as a "business". Again, FreeBSD is not for everyone. If you feel that NT is a better fit to your requirements and staffing skill level, then that is your business decision which I would not presume to second guess. However, I would like to re-iterate my original note, in which I welcome you to tell us how NT fares after performing the same task for the same amount of time. -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 9 09:59:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA00369 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 09:59:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from primus.mynet.net (port23-3.lancaster.desupernet.net [208.7.253.210]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA00358 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 09:59:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jeffers@redrose.net) Received: (from jeffers@localhost) by primus.mynet.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA00850 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 12:58:45 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from jeffers) Date: Mon, 9 Nov 1998 12:58:44 -0500 From: David Jeffers To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: procfs too small?

If you absolutely *have* to do an upgrade, then try to confine it to minor revisions. It's a basic, common-sense rule.

However, 3.0R should not be used in a production environment as it is still in development. I recomend you install 2.2.7 first, and learn how to cvsup to -stable. The -stable line will transistion into 2.2.8 soon. 2.2.8 will be the last of the 2.x.x line but will be used for several years, due to it's stability. You may find that you don't really need SMP support, once you try 2.2.7. If you still want to use SMP, be aware that not all multiprocessor motherboards will work. See http://www.freebsd.org/~fsmp/SMP/SMP.html for more info. Also, be aware that the documentation is lacking for 3.0R. The docs for 2.2.7 are in pretty good shape.

I'd say most experienced system administrators know that no matter how much bugtesting a major revision to the operating system undergoes, some things only come out after it gets released. I, for one, would never use a fresh x.0.0 release on a production system, because I know issues will get discovered over those first few months. It's the same reason I didn't upgrade to NT 4.0 on my NT-box-what-just-sits-there-most-of-the-time until SP2 came out. (Not that that made it any better; I should have waited until SP3.) 3.0 was ready to move to the -RELEASE cycle---you can't betatest forever. And it's turning up some issues that will get fixed in 3.0.1 on and so forth. For myself, I'll probably wait until 3.1.1 before I really upgrade my system. I think perhaps simply making it clearer what -RELEASE and -STABLE mean on the home page would help a lot, along with having links to each installation. But I don't think that restricting 3.0 is the answer.

They put in place what they thought would suffice to inform people enough to keep newbies from running it. IMHO, it hasn't worked because it relied on people READING, which if they come from the Microsuk world, they don't (I'm sure they CAN, they just DON'T). I certainly agree with the core team's desire for greater exposure/testing. But my God, we've been deluged with newbies running it and asking questions so basic, as to prove they shouldn't be running it at all!! As Jonathan pointed out in a recent post, the link on www.freebsd.org points to 3.0R boot floppies. I hope someone changes that back to 2.2.7. The web site, IMHO, should be configured to give you the most stable, best supported, version unless you're able to READ enough to find 3.0R. If it's slightly difficult to find, and we push people towards 2.2.7, we'll be in better shape. Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

I also think it's the responsibility of the person downloading or installing something to make sure it's what they want. With proper percautions that is. I appreciate knowing that I too can try my hand at the newest and greatest should I choose to do so. I know let's ask Mr. Stallman what he would suggest ! http://www.fsf.org I really have to say it's great that there is a FreeBSD and a Linux and GNU. People get to learn this stuff and arn't left in the dark on important technology. I'm starting to understand there is alot more to simple things than what first meets the eye.

To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As a newbie, I am uncertain about how much is enough concerning information about this problem. I've installed FreeBSD 2.2.6, on a Compaq Deskpro, with a built-in video card, which FreeBSD reveals as an "ATI Mach64 with IBM514 Ramdac". The Monitor is a Gateway2000 EV700. The install was working correctly, including X, at one time, except that the /usr directory was maxed out at 103%, so I opted to reinstall on the same machine using a larger portion the 3GB harddisk for the /usr directory. I think I did everything exactly like the first time, but now, when X gets running, the display shows that there seems to be a devideing line in the center of the display, where when the mouse is passed over it, it disappears in the center of the screen and reemerges from either the right or left. The left side of the display is stable as a rock, while the right half seems to have a little flicker in it. Frankly, I don't even know enough about UNIX, X, or FreeBSD to begin to look for the problem.

I don't think that would be fare. I upgraded from 2.2.7 to 3.0-release maybe about 2 weeks after it was released for many resons. 1. IDE cd-burner and tape drive support (I have an IDE tape Drive on the desktop) 2. SCSI System change 3. better mouse sound, pnp, support,(desktop) 4. Async IO 5. Lern more about the development as well as develop my own projects etc. This wouls have not been possible if I couldn't get the newest release version.

The current link to boot floppies points to 3.0R floppies, and I'm suggesting that this is a bad idea. It should point to 2.2.7 floppies. If you took the time to read, you could find the 3.0R floppies. I also like the idea of a web page with the bullets I mentioned previously, with a statement saying "I certify..." just as an attempt to get the point across. Pat will probably spread negative thoughts about freebsd, based on his bad experiences, even though it was his own fault. I doubt he'll ever believe it was his fault. We should protect freebsd's reputation by preventing people who won't read the release notes from getting 3.0R easily. BTW, if they've been running a mail server for 4 years, it wasn't 2.2.7 anyway. He still would have been caught with his pants down because of changes in /etc config files. They should have been tracking freebsd (he didn't mention it, AFAIK). Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

I should really be more specific with my question about T1/E1. I am really after E1 card product for BSD, or for that matter, E1 with some degree of HDLC processing done in on-board chip leaving driver to be written on FreeBSD. I am really after an E1 card that I can write driver for E1/PRI, clear channel E1, nailed FR over E1, and switch FR over E1/PRI. And hopefully card that runs on PCI bus will be sufficient for now, since there is not yet support for VME bus. ps: I have ET's V.35 card and also know that they do have T1 card, so I am very much into E1 card as I am in Australia.

You'll need to download the boot and F10 Setup Disks for your Deskpro. I was running a Deskpro 4000. The embedded video card was a Cirrus Logic CL-GD5446 card with 2Mb RAM. Booting with the Compaq supplied boot disks and setup utilities will reveal the exact card for you, too. I should point out, that when running the SVGA X Server, I, too, would get horizontal lines in the middle of the screen - not often, but mainly when the the screen updates would be fast (like catting a long file in an xterm window). I used kde however, so refreshing the desktop was easy and since it only happened every once in a while I wasn't too concerned. There is an X server specifically for the Cirrus Logic or ATI cards, but since I had 1024x768x16bpp resolution anyway, I wasn't too concerned. Make the floppies from Compaq first, and find out exactly what you've got in there. If you need any help running XF86Setup afterwards, let me know and I'll be more than happy to walk you through it.

For starters, it ran fine for 4 years. You knew enough to backup the "important" files, but not the system. Ever hear of the dump command? I guess that since the system was 4 years old, can we then assume that you're still running Windows 3.11? Maybe it's common practice to have systems installed, but not have any of the installation media.... You are blaming us for _YOUR_ lack of knowledge. Face it: * Odds are, the OS was out of rev * You didn't make a system backup * You didn't have installation media for your release * You chose to install a different rev than was previously installed * You don't pay enough attention to the OS to know that 3.0 is development Now, you can use your cute little artsy-farts GUI to configure "Sendmail for NT", recode all of your majordomo listserves into Exchange, and replace the boxes since you're "upgrading" to Windows NT. And so far as your comment about FreeBSD not holding a candle to NT.... let's see anything Microsoft makes you pay money for beat a free operating system. I have yet to see an NT system have the uptime or reliability of a FreeBSD system. If you don't know better than to have a full system backup, then you sure as hell aren't a sysadmin at any company I've worked for. And if you need a GUI to configure things, then go buy Microsoft. After all, it's the OS that's designed for the lowest common denominator in the gene pool.

Let me get this straight; You had a system crash, so instead of re-installing a known good system, you upgrade a production system to the bleeding edge (3.0) without any prior testing? Honestly, this was a mistake, and the version that should have been installed was installed was 2.2.7. > cryptic errors. Sendmail keeps giving me an error: > sendmail[131]: NOQUEUE: low on space (have 0, SMTP-DAEMON needs 101 in > /var/spool/mqueue) So, sendmail gives you an error message saying that it is out of disk space, and you blame it on sendmail? No offense, but it sounds to me like the system isn't configured correctly. > To hell with FreeBSD. We are replacing all of the systems with NT versions > of sendmail. And it works great!

I don't believe it for a second. You are welcome to your opinion. If NT works better for you, then by all means, use it. FreeBSD is powerful, and can do anything that you want it to do. However, it setting it up and maintaining it does require more knowledge on the administrator's part than NT. In return, it can provide "years of trouble-free operation"(tm). You did note that FreeBSD handled your email for 4 years before a harddrive crash. Please feel free to give us a summary in 4 years from now of how well NT behaves in doing the same task. -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 9 12:01:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA14452 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 12:01:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from samizdat.uucom.com (samizdat.uucom.com [198.202.217.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA14444 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 12:01:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cshenton@uucom.com) Received: (from cshenton@localhost) by samizdat.uucom.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) id PAA18567; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 15:01:19 -0500 To: dave , archie@whistle.com cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: mpd + EQL, Livingston PM2 MLLB, alternatives? mpd load high?

I have no problem on the homenet side with the default route, it's at the ISP end where I'm losing. I believe you're right that gated must not be picking up mpd's interface and therefore not getting the static route. I'll have to figure out what to look for in the logs then learn how to persuade it to do the right thing.

OK, great. The PM3s will do real multilink PPP; the PM2 analog ports didn't have enough memory to do real MLPPP, to maintain state of fragments and all, according to MegaZone and the Livingston list. This should at least allow me to get more throughput, even if not optimal, on the POTS PM2. > You will definitely get better performance with mpd on either end and > going with multilink ppp, but if that is not an option, MLLB should get > decent performance. Well then I'll give this a shot, since I already have the box in place. Should probably upgrade to 2.2.7-stable on the dial-in box and mpd-1.0b5 on both, first... Thanks a bunch.

I didn't see it in your message, but if the left and right sides are switched and there is a gap in the middle then that is probably the case. Of course unless you are running xdm or something you might not be able to tell if the sides are switched or not. You also might want to try a couple of generic video modes (640x480x8 or 640x480x16) to make sure that it is using the proper "driver" for your card.

I guess what I'm trying to say is the way this pat guy came down on FreeBSD even though the problems were of his own design I can understand why some people endorse having a waiting period to purchase guns.

Microsoft monkeys will always download the latest version ("Oh, look: NT5-alpha2-sp17 just came out, let's put it on our exchange server!"). I do agree that if you're not clever enough to discern whether to use -STABLE or x.0-RELEASE then the default should be -STABLE. But I don't believe 3.0 was the problem for this luser. It was that the install script didn't read his mind and configure the machine with a 10GB /var partition for mail. I think 2.2.7 would have the same problem, so let's not beat ourselves up over the 2.x-STABLE versus 3.0-RELEASE thing. (I just installed 3.0-BETA [a day before RELEASE came out]-: on a very remote ISP, very reluctantly: 2.2-STABLE didn't work with our new Dell disk controller. Fortunately, it's been running very well as the web/ftp/proxy/cache system, and a clone as the SMTP/POP/IMAP system. But I saved up enough experience and bought a clue before installing: I gave the web, cache, and mail dirs *plenty* of space on their respective disks :-).

You launched the first salvo, didn't you. If you got flamed, and I know you did, keep in mind that if you start a fight, you risk getting a bloody nose. If you can remove yourself from this situation emotionally, i.e., hide your ego, you'll learn a lot from the advice buried within the flames. And if my dog bit me... HE'D hate being my dog for awhile... Here's a summary of the good advice: 1. When you need to recover from a hardware failure, resist the temptation to upgrade ANYTHING in the process. 2. Whatever software you use, track it. Test new versions, fix paks, etc on a NON-PRODUCTION machine before installing on a production machine. 3. Never fire a salvo at a mailing list, ask questions BEFORE you shoot yourself in the foot. 4. Stop thinking that computers are appliances that *self-configure*. Not everyone's environment is the same. There may be more... Good luck. As someone who helped roast you, let me say that if you'd like to reconsider, you'll still find people here willing to help you work thru your problems, if you'll stop throwing barbs and start asking questions.

I have System Commander installed on the 10.2G. I have installed FreeBSD on the ide0 slave (1.2 G) drive. Here is the problem: I boot my machine, and it comes up in System Commander. I select Win95 and everything is hunky dory. I reboot, and it comes up in System Commander. I select FreeBSD and everthing is hunky dory. I reboot, and for some reason the active partition is no longer active, and no other partition has been set as active. The result: Everytime I boot FreeBSD, the next time I reboot I have to boot with a floppy, run fdisk, and reset the active partition. This would be ok if I never rebooted after starting FreeBSD, but alas, that is not possible. :) I have tried installing with the normal master boot record and with the boot loader, and have seen the same behavior. Has anybody seen this before? Do you have any suggestions? Would using the don't use a master boot record selection work? Can I do that without reinstalling? Thanks!

People have been using -CURRENT for production systems for years. Heck, I do it myself :-) Admittedly, though, you need to understand what you're doing. I was not completely happy with the decision to release 3.0-RELEASE. Maybe we should have called it 3.0-PRERELEASE, or 3.0-RESTRICTED, or some such, just to make it clear that we didn't expect the same stability from a .0 release as we would from others.

While the above is true in the general case, it does not apply to FreeBSD. At one time, I was doing just that here, before replacing apsfilter with a PS-only filter of my own design.

It turns out I may have found something after all. I'm going to give it a shhot and report back, but in looking through some of the docs on APS Filter, I ran across this in ChangeLog: * Corey Sweeney and many others ... want remote printing functionality ... ;-) Here it is, the ugly hack: bin/apsfilter: when setting REMOTE_PRINTER=True then we print to a printer named remote. So make a printer entry in /etc/printcap for your printer named remote and set the environment variable in bin/apsfilter ( ~ line 55) Please note, now everything is being sent to the _one_ remote printer ... sorry ... !!!! And then this, in FAQ: Q 1.9 What about remote printer support Ok, _one_ is now supported. Please make an entry in /etc/printcap for such a printer called "remote": remote|remotep|LJ4 remote on ethernet:\ :lp=:\ :rm=remote_host:\ IP=addr :rp=remote_printer_name:\ :sd=/var/spool/remote:\ :lf=/var/spool/remote/log:\ :mx#0:\ :sh:sf: Create spool dir /var/spool/remote mkdir -p /var/spool/remote touch /var/spool/remote/log chown -R UID.GID /var/spool/remote chmod 775 /var/spool/remote where UID is the user id under that your lpd works and GID the group ID. Look, what SETUP did for your system ... Modify bin/apsfilter at ~ line 55. Set REMOTE_PRINTER by removing the '#' at the beginning of the line. #REMOTE_PRINTER=True This adds the command "| lpr -Premote" to the PRINT_PS variable ... Please note, that you loose control over your printjob now, since the lpr -Premote command is incoked under lpd permissions. So only root is allowed to kill jobs in the "remote" queue. Yes, this is an ugly hack, but many people reported, that they want and need it ;-) Time to see what happens... :) ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

The download section of the website must be written with newbies as the intended audience. This is most likely their first encounter with FreeBSD if not UNIX. As such, *anything* which discourages them is bad for the FreeBSD Project. I believe that part of our duty as helpers is to make things easier for the newbies. There are some people that don't want to help newbies. That's their choice, but it's no excuse for being rude. It's one thing to direct someone to a manual or a webpage. It's another thing to tell them to RTFM. -- 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 Mon Nov 9 16:03:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA10149 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 16:03:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from chmls05.mediaone.net (ne.mediaone.net [24.128.1.70]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA10131 for ; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 16:03:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sderdau@ne.mediaone.net) Received: from ne.mediaone.net (sderdau.ne.mediaone.net [24.128.122.19]) by chmls05.mediaone.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id TAA20151; Mon, 9 Nov 1998 19:02:43 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <36478334.7385389C@ne.mediaone.net> Date: Mon, 09 Nov 1998 19:05:08 -0500 From: Stephen Derdau X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Jerry CC: "Eric L.

You need to *build* ftpd with the option set so the appropriate code is enabled. The system distributed ftpd is *not* build with such support. If you have the system source installed, go into /usr/src/libexec/ftpd and type make INTERNAL_LS=true depend all install All future invocations of ftpd will now have ls built-in. (A scan of the source notes that FTPD_INTERNAL_LS is the wrong define, it should be INTERNAL_LS.)

A ".0" suffix should be sufficient warning, after all the jokes which have been made about using any ".0" release of anything. If this is really not ready for prime time, perhaps we need to layer the web site better. For the floppies, we could have buttons labeled : Download public release - for the usual person. Download beta release - expect extra problems. and Download alpha release - to boldly go where only the systems team has gone before. The question then would be whether we would get enough folks punching the beta test button to get sufficient testing performed. And, the problem would still remain of when to transition software from beta to public release. There is no magic rule for any OS on going from beta to public. Sometime after the beta testers run out of critical bugs, you have to jump and pray.

Date: Mon, 9 Nov 1998 16:23:00 -0800 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2232.9) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, This problem sounds like your XF86Config file is setup incorrectly; your video card is attempting to drive your monitor at a rate it cannot handle. Have you tried switching to different video res- olutions (via ctl-alt-+ under X)? You may be able to get the screen into a workable state this way. If this is the case, you may want to edit /etc/XF86Config and kill the video mode that causes the screen to be funky. Another fix may be to re-create your XF86Config file. First, save old version which is in /etc. Move it to XF86.old or something. Then, use xf86config or XF86Setup to specify your video card, mouse, monitor etc... These programs both make a new XF86Config file by asking you a bunch of questions. xf86config can be run in an xterm under X whereas XF86Setup must be run from a character terminal without X running as it starts up X itself and presents you with a 640x480 GUI. As a note, you should know the capabilities of your monitor (refresh rates, see manual), what kind of mouse you have (serial, ps/2 etc...) and what kind of video card you have when you invoke these programs because they will ask you and you don't want to appear stupid in front of them. ;) Once you have created a new XF86Config file, try to restart the X server. If it is running, you can kill it with a ctl-alt-backspace. Then you can restart it via startx or xdm. Don't worry about screw- ing up because you have a saved XF86 config file. Unless you screw up really bad and cause your monitor to explode. ;) Seriously, if you don't know your monitor's specs, be conservative (don't say: "hell, my monitor can do ANYTHING!") If these things do not work, I would suspect some strangiousity with your built-in video card. Good luck with your troubles!

It's amazing the people that they let run networks. I wonder whose brother he is? My company has had to "embrace" NT for some uses, but we sure aren't loony enough to use it for our mail servers. What really makes me scratch my head is Cisco. They are planning to use embedded NT in some of their products. It's a router, it's a web server, it's a floor polish!

No, you probably changed the netmask on the loopback interface. I'd like to see 'ifconfig -a'.

However, in the meanwhile, the situation has changed a bit, and now it looks like I'm probably going to be installing a commercial version of Unix that will support software RAID as well as growing the filesystem online -- that is, unless you can tell me how this can be done with FreeBSD (or any other *BSD) or Linux. >In ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/archive-info/ there's a doc describing the hardware >layout. wcarchive is super-slow in responding right now or I'd have the >full url. I've seen that article. It's very interesting, but I don't think our budget will stretch that far. Besides, I really do like the idea of being able to grow the filesystem online -- I still have to turn the machine off to put in new drives, and I'll still do a full backup of the server before I take it down, but at least I shouldn't be forced to to umount & newfs the RAID array, and then restore from tape. Thanks again! -- Brad Knowles If you wouldn't take out a one-page ad in the Wall Street Journal to say something, then don't say it by email.

The executable is fine in the src dir. Paths: /dsmud /src : contains .c, Makefile, and executable /inc : contains .h /obj : repository for .o files. gmake is run from /dsmud/src. I've poured over the online version of the .info of gmake, and as far as I can tell we are doing what is correct, but we always get the error: gmake: *** No rule to make target `act_comm.o', needed by `darkshade'. Stop. It's my understanding that the vpath allows gmake to check the directories as set in INCDIR, SRCDIR and OBJDIR, but this doesn't seem to be happening.

Hi! Thanks for the answer.. But I can't find any section in man for ccd or ccdconfig that says the partitions being put together have to be of the same size? That's one of the uses of ccd, that you can concatenate drives of different sizes..

Presumably John didn't install FreeBSD 3.0 on his one and only coprporate email host. Especially without smoke testing it for a week or two offline. Heck, I don't put Solaris or Irix in the hot seat at work until I'm assured its not going to bite me. Am even leary of applying maintenance and security patches on a production box. I've got some SGI O2's with Irix 6.3 now with a badly broken swmgr (SGI's software installation tool and package manager). Strange the ones in *that* room configured the same all broke but the ones in another room configured differently didn't. All installed and patched from the same set of CD's. Upgrade to Irix 6.5 cures the problem. I mention this because sh*t happens, no matter how much regression testing one does. Spent the weekend putting 3.0 on this machine. It wasn't a terribly smooth ride, didn't expect it to be. Was deliberately waiting until 3.0-release for the developers to quit actively adding new features and shift into "making it stable" mode. Didn't make it easy on myself, at the same time I changed video and ethernet boards, and added a sound card. Video works but I can't startx the way I used to. Sound card works under NT but not 2.2.7 or 3.0 yet.

The driver name is fxp. Wait one second, the question was, *ISA* EtherExpress Pro/100. An animal with the potential to occupy 100% of the ISA system bandwidth. See "man 4 ex" for the manpage entry for the 10M bps ISA card. The *PCI* EtherExpress 10/100B is quite a nice card. And inexpensive. See "man 4 fxp". At less than $60 it would be much cheaper to simply buy a new PCI card rather than write a driver for a discontinued card. OTOH you might have fun and learn something adapting a driver for a new card. Not knowing what chip is on your card I'd guess you need to study both the fxp and ex drivers. The fxp probably resembles your chip the most, the ex will show you something about how to interface with ISA. -- 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.

Netscape works fine on my CURRENT box. It turns out, it's something to do with NFS. My home directory is from a NetBSD-1.3.2 server. When I run netscape, ktrace shows that the process gets hung while looking at my ~/.netscape files. I tried using an NFS v2 mount, with the same result. As root (with home directory in /root, and thus local), netscape has no problem. We've had no problems with NetBSD NFS servers in the past, including NetBSD, FreeBSD-pre-3.0, Linux, and Solaris clients. I've had the August snapshot interacting with NetBSD with few problems for months on a different machine, so I'm leaning towards it being due to a change in FreeBSD since then, but of course that's not conclusive... If someone familiar with NFS would be willing to look at it, I can try to capture the NFS traffic with tcpdump and send it. I can't remember if I mentioned it before, but this is on a dual P-II system, straight from Dell, so I'm running with SMP enabled. As I mentioned on the freebsd-smp list, one disturbing thing is that the ktrace output has garbage characters in it at spots.... some kind of corruption, perhaps? Any help appreciated...

Usually, my first thoughts when something breaks is "What did I do wrong?" "What did I screw up?" or, "What did I change?" have you noted the 'I' in all of those questions? I imagine that even on the absolute worst OS imaginable, human error is the number one source of problems. I do technical support at small office and the primary problems I have to troubleshoot end up sounding like "The COMPUTER stopped working," when in fact the user innocently, and/or ignorantly messed up. That is what I am there for, that is what this list exists for. Today I was trying to run a java program that started giving me java.lang.blah exceptions. What was the source of the problem? I downloaded a new classes.zip (Winblows 95) into my java directory. Having foreseen a potential for some screw up at this point, I had renamed the old file classes.zip.ORIGINAL. Just goes to show that with the proper precautions, any error is repairable, with the proper precautions. Remember, "What did I do wrong?"

You can't limit swap, explicitly, but you can limit the total datasize of the process. See /etc/login.conf.

You have to know what you're geting into when you 'invent' names. Unfortunately that name will get exposed to the outside world and you will run into problem with sites that will throw you out since your fake address doesn't resolve. There isn't much you can do about this other than change your hostname to match your dialup name or limit your mail correspondence with hosts that like you.

Dig up a copy of PAO at http://www.jp.freebsd.org and buy a support PCCARD SCSI adapter. Then connect the CD to the SCSI card and it should work.

Try running dump as dump -0auf /dev/nrst0 / the a option says 'use the whole tape'. If that does wierd things use the 'B' and 'b' options; see the dump manpage.

Without any flags, you're not usiing interleave (striping) or mirroring, so you should be OK. >>> When I try to do what the below cut shows, the system hangs!

Try disabling the tcp extensions in /etc/rc.conf and/or executing the following commands: sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1323=1 sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1644=1 See if that helps. TCP over satellite is a unique problem that is being worked on.

And you're blaming ME for the system having problems? This is flawed thinking. No machine will run if it doesn't have a sufficent amount of hard drive space. The only "auto-configuration" that occurs under FreeBSD is if you select the "auto" option under the FreeBSD fdisk-alike. The same applies for disklabel. Configuring the kernel is a big part of using FreeBSD. If you are incapable of *basic* configuration, I have to wonder how the machine(s?) behaved for four years. To blame you is vaild, for none of us could have directed you to make the mistakes you did. Please reconsider your decision and attempt to find what you did wrong and try again.

Your JetDirect manual will tell you to submit the job to the 'text' printer instead of the 'lp' printer. If it's not connected via a JetDirect card, set up a2ps.

The problem is that the machine that this happened on is remote. (It's in USA and I'm in Sweden).. And there's noone around there who can do experimenting. The most they can do is reset the box, which is not fun either, because it's a "semi-production" box.. I will have to live with non-concatenated disks.. I guess I'll survive :)..

Now that the excitement is done, please allow me to describe what was required to get it going: 1) Thanks to some people on this list, reading the APSFilter FAQ, and some insights from (of all places) one of the Linux How-To's, I got a working printcap. In addition to changing the "lp" entries to point to /dev/null, I needed to add an additional printcap entry as follows: remote|remotep|JetDirect EX Plus:\ :lp=/dev/null:\ :rm=runabout:\ :rp=raw:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/remote:\ :lf=/var/spool/lpd/remote/log:\ :mx#0:\ :sh: where "runabout" is the hostname of my JetDirect. Once that was done, I tried another printout.. a simple one, my .login file. Instead of getting my .login, though, I got a single line printed out on the printer that said: -r must be followed by or x Which leads to... 2) Upon looking at the apsfilter script, I found where it was trying to add the -r parameter in this section of the script: (this is kind of long) if [ -z "$GS_RESOL" ] then # default is _not_ to fiddle around with # ghostscripts printer driver resolution PRINT_PS=" gs \ -q \ -sDEVICE=${PRINTER} \ -sPAPERSIZE=${PAPERSIZE} \ -dNOPAUSE \ -dSAFER \ -sOutputFile=- \ ${GS_FEATURES} \ ${PS_INIT} \ - " else # if we urgently need another resolution # then we use it (selectable in /etc/apsfilterrc # or in $HOME/apsfilterrc) PRINT_PS=" gs \ -q \ -r${GS_RESOL} \ -sDEVICE=${PRINTER} \ -sPAPERSIZE=${PAPERSIZE} \ -dNOPAUSE \ -dSAFER \ -sOutputFile=- \ ${GS_FEATURES} \ ${PS_INIT} \ - " fi I don't know how it's happening, but somehow the GS_RESOL variable is being set, but to a blank value, so that it's trying to call apsfilter with the -r option, but nothing after it. The solution was to simply pull out the line with the -r, and after that, I'm now printing and having a great time of it! I realize this mail is probably somewhat superfluous, but at least if anyone has trouble with this in the future, well... here's your solution! :) And who knows, maybe this will end up in the mailing list archives. Thanks again to everyone for their help on this!! ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

I managed to get my modem card working but I'm not sure if it's the right way. I built a kernel with sio0 and sio1 configured, however during boot I get a bunch of error messages about sio1 not being probed. However when pccardd starts it assigned my modem happily to sio1 and it works OK. However I have found an option called EXTRA_SIO and was wondering if I can use this to re-allocate the space for sio1 without the error messages at boot time? How is this normally done. What about ethernet cards? I haven't been able to get my ethernet card going yet. Do I need any special options for it?

No idea why as I'm not familiar with solaris as much as I am bsd. the ultra is our dns server. the netra our reverse dns. Anyhow, it does all work fine. We have a p2/333 running 3.0 and Zeus quite nicely now. 3.0 went in as smoothe as 2.2.6 for me. 3.0 may not be stable yet but it's running great for us on our test server. Nice job on it so far.

While we've discussed this matter, and in principle we're in agreement, you should leave Jeremy to make up his mind himself. Maybe he's just trying to get used to the system. FreeBSD 3.0 is maybe not as stable in some areas as 2.2.7, but it's not going to panic every two days either. Jeremy, 3.0 is a "be careful" release. Don't set up large web or ftp servers with it. But it contains a number of new features, and if you're used to Microsoft, you'll be astounded how reliable it is.

Actually I tried PNIC driver and find out that _my_ DFE-530TX wasn't supported by Bill's PNIC driver. I mailed to Bill and got answer which says that DFE-530TX is based on VIA "Rhine" chipset. There's ongoing work to support that chipset but currently there's no driver.

I think I had similar problem while installing 2.2.7R. I guess you have following directory structure on the media you install from : FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE bin .. packages All (I'm sure it's empty! put all packages here) audio x11 .. Having istalled minimal complect I tried to install some audio packages like you do: /stand/sysinstall->configure->packages-> and always got "unable to fetch .." So, move all files from "packages/audio", "/x11", etc to "packages/All" directory. Well, I hope it will help. Esli chto pishite po-russki.

BUT HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THERE WERE HIDDEN ISSUES?" :-) Installing and running a NOS, _any_ NOS, is not child's play. This goes doubly for any Unix. Unix is incredibly powerful and flexible, but it can also be extremely knowledge-intensive. (Note that I do not say _labour_-intensive, as it is quite possible to run Unix boxes which operate for months, or even years, without human intervention. But to do that, you have to put in the required amount of brainwork at the start.) I often say (only half in jest) that I know no part-time Unix system administrators. They tend to be a semi-fanatical bunch who spend _all_ their spare time hacking away at their systems, streamlining a little process here, polishing a script there, and just generally increasing their own knowledge base in the process. NT, on the other hand, with its habit of hiding the real complexity from you, is well suited to part-time administrators. Look at it this way: I have the habit of _always_ putting my car keys in the same drawer. Always. I never have to think about where my keys are - I just open the drawer. Every now and again - maybe once a year - I manage to put my keys somewhere else for whatever reason. When I then open that drawer, I enter a complete and total state of panic. Since I'm not used to remembering where I put my keys, I don't even have a _clue_ where to start looking. NT is a bit like that. It's fine while everything works. But the day something goes wrong (or the day you want to do something just a little bit out of the ordinary), prepare for a coronary. This isn't an NT bash, BTW. I even go so far as to recommend NT to some of my clients. People who want to (say) run their own Web server and who do not have the required level of experience to operate a Unix box... well, I have better things to do than to hold their hands all the time, so I point them at NT. The fact that running NT is far less a labour of love can be a bonus in many commercial situations. Now, here's my suggestion: Once all this has settled down, and your new network is quite up and running, get your job to sponsor you an old 486 or something. Then try to set up FreeBSD (yes, even 3.0!) on it and PLAY with it for a month or two. If you have _any_ problems whatsoever, come right back to this list. If you still don't like working within the Unix paradigm, well, then at least you'll be able to say so from a position of strength. How's that for an idea? -- V Johann Visagie | wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 | ICQ: 20645559 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 10 02:29:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA06289 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 02:29:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from netvisor.hu (mmtp86.mit.bme.hu [152.66.81.166]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA06280 for ; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 02:29:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from szoli@netvisor.hu) Received: from localhost (szoli@localhost) by netvisor.hu (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id MAA17005; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 12:38:42 +0100 Date: Tue, 10 Nov 1998 12:38:42 +0100 (CET) From: Memphisto X-Sender: szoli@linux.intranet.netvisor.hu To: Doug White cc: David Jeffers , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: SB Vibra 16 - Luigi?

I'm concerned with Exchange's stability, so I'm pushing IT on the idea of a FreeBSD box for internal mail and news (our "bulletin boards"). Last night I installed and configured qpopper and innd successfully, and even on a little 486/66 they seem to perform quite nicely, standing up against a pair of mean Pentiums trying to throttle the little box with heavy mail and news posting loops. We're a company of about 60, and I think a Pentium 100 in a back closet somewhere should be ample to support all that we do. The last aspect I'd like to test is security. I've got my test box up and running as newtoy.com on the net presently, and next week I hope to make a public posting offering $100 out of pocket to the first person who can get in and retrieve either mail or news from my machine and tell me how they did it. If the configuration stands up in that kind of a hostile environment, I would feel confident that it would be secure against curious co-workers on our isolated network. Before I do this, I'd like to know if there are any known security issues with the Walnut Creek distribution of 2.2.7-RELEASE or the included ports of qpopper and innd. Any pointers would be -very- much appreciated. And if NewToy survives the test with all its little secrets intact, I'll gladly make that $100 a contribution to the FreeBSD efforts instead. ;) Cheers!

Not planning on putting a global feed onto a 486 I hope. I would think what you propose would be fine. It should be easy to size disk, taking into account space in a /var partition for incoming and outgoing mail; same for news. Give it enough memory to run all this stuff. If you're running a nameserver on it, give it more cuz DNS wants to cache information it acquires about external domains. > The last aspect I'd like to test is security.

If you track any of the security lists, I think you'll find that you can't prove security by offering a bounty like this. It's usually used as a marketing ploy by vendors. Just cuz no one wants to hack into it today doesn't mean you won't become vulnerable tomorrow. I don't think it's a useful test. Better to put the time and money into some security analysis. You might want to set up the box and check out what ISS and Ballista think of it; they're commercial tools. You can also use the free but aging SATAN, or the newer SAINT scanners against it. Check out the new free tool Nessus, too -- it seems to be growing rapidly. > Before I do this, I'd like to know if there are any known security > issues with the Walnut Creek distribution of 2.2.7-RELEASE or the > included ports of qpopper and innd.

And there have been issues with qpopper recently, on all platforms, and it's been fixed. Check the lists for details. But IMHO FreeBSD is the easiest OS to secure for a variety of reasons all relating to open source. Lots of eyes have looked at the code, good guys looking for holes, bad guys looking for exports. The distribution is more controlled than some other popular free UNIX-like operating systems :-) and this in my mind reduces chaos, a good thing for security. You can track 2.2-STABLE with CVSUP and stay up the minute with your entire operating source code, compiling in fixes as soon as they emerge. This is a *massive* win, IMHO. This doesn't help, tho, with many of the most common exploits -- which are typically due to improperly configured systems. I have a habit of bringing up a new box, disabling inetd and everything I can't demonstrably prove I must run (nfs, rpcbind, sendmail, etc -- where appropriate), then installing SSH. Then I don't need telnet and ftp and all my passwords and other traffic are encrypted and my hosts can use cryptographically significant mutual authentication. If you wanna get punk, set up packet filters with FreeBSD's built-in ipfw, or the ipfilter package. Then you might wanna consider stopping bad guys at your border: packet filters on your router, a real firewall (home grown with fwtk is OK too!), etc. But this gets way beyond the example you site: is NT or FreeBSD more secure for an email and news server. It begins to address the enterprise. You should consider getting on the freebsd-security list, too. Good luck persuading your keepers. I find it all to rare that actual facts and logic can swap people brainwashed by a multi-billion-dollar marketing and propaganda machine, and that so-called IT people who don't want to read will always prefer colorful grope-n-poke interfaces to something robust. PS: is there anything wrong with your Novell and cc:Mail? or is it just management's idea of a fashion statement to abandon a system that that works well and jump on the NT-lemming bandwagon? Sigh...

Check out http://home.san.rr.com/freebsd/dal-upgrade.html. There's a lot of good information there on configuring your kernel and your system to run an ircd in the most optimized fashion possible. As far as hardware goes, ircd doesn't require much disk space, but it does use a fair amount of memory, depending on how large of a network you're on. I would recommend a minimum of 64 MB of memory, or if you're on a large network, at least 128 MB. ircd doesn't use that much, but that way your system still has plenty of memory left for its other tasks. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

But the problem is, None of them boots! Neither from DOS-> install-> configure, Nor turn off/on the PC. After the floppy drive indicator flashes for 4-5 seconds(the "bootable" was inserted at the beginning and so was the CD), the machine was simply dead. No response from the keybaord, no error message on the screen. I thought my floppy drive crashed, but it boots for MS windows stuff(98, 95) normally. Can you help me out? I really appreciate.

We have there three machines with DECchip cards. Time to time we get alignment errors and similar messages but nothing strange was happened since. My understanding is that de driver has lot of debugging hooks enabled default. Somewhere in the lists I read that such behavior can be disabled easily.

After that I tried to play a wav file - "#play foo.wav" and it played fine. But when I run mpeg3 audio player .. "#amp samba.mp3" it just makes terrible noise! x11amp said "Incompatible OSS Driveross sysinfo=0:0 unable to get fragment size" :( The same happened when I tried to use Luiji sound driver (pcm0) instead of snd0, sb0 ..

But on 'the bad outside' I prefer *nixes like FreeBSD or Linux. We have had a so called 'Firewall Solution' for NT 4.0 but it was worse. It was so worse, that I kicked it really off. Slowly, huge and huger hardware requirements and the 'ease' of configuration (it was that, what you call 'interactive') considered me, to chose something other. I'm not very experienced with any *nixes, a little bit HP-UX, but not much. But it was although not _so_ difficult to configure.

It uses the National Semiconductor DP83800. Unfortunately, the only documentation I've found for it so far is a NS app-note, but no datasheet.

Use 3.0 if you are willing to except a slightly untested OS. 3.0 was released only a few weeks ago. See http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html. Those instruction will have you download the 3.0 install disc image. If you want 2.2.7 you must go to our ftp site and download the 2.2.7 install disc image.

FreeBSD is based on BSD 4.4Lite. I supported minicomputer systems running Gould's UTX-32 which was part System V and part BSD back in 1985-1990. I had always hoped to get my hands on a low cost BSD. Imagine my surprise when I found FreeBSD for FREE!! Actually, I spent $60 and got Greg Lehey's book with CDs. But that was version 2.1.5, and I've since downloaded via the Internet version 2.2.7 and 3.0RELEASE for free. The book still comes in handy. See http://www.freebsd.org/ >Are user licensing required for FreeBSD? no >We are currently considering setting up our own mail server (for >internet, internal etc) and would like to use UNIX, I have heard that >FreeBSD and BSD are almost the same. FreeBSD is based on BSD 4.4Lite. There is only one FreeBSD specific book in publication, to my knowledge, but I have collected many BSD books over the years (since 1985) and they are applicable. If you find yourself needing books, check out http://www.ora.com/ >Any help would be appreciated. Also, what version and file would I >download? If you have Internet access that doesn't charge by the hour (unlimited), even if it's via a 33K modem, you can download two files, boot.flp and either fdimage.exe or rawrite.exe. fdimage.exe is the current best bet, but if it doesn't work on your system, try rawrite.exe. And then boot the floppy, and install FreeBSD via the Internet for free. There are instructions at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html You could also buy the only FreeBSD specific book on the market WITH or WITHOUT CD-ROMs at http://www.cdrom.com/ Specifically check out http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/os.htm You could buy the CD-ROMs without the book, but the book will save you a lot of time. I recommend that you buy or download version 2.2.7 and learn how to track -stable with cvsup. The latest release of FreeBSD is 3.0, but it's still in development and needs more polish. You don't need the headaches. Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

If you need it right now then go to http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html and get crackin'. :) I will say this. FreeBSD runs Apache too. I recommend you install Apache. It is a great server.

If you install FreeBSD in the current diskspace that is occupied by Redhat you will destroy everything that is currently there.

You may wish to make a new config file- I tend to use LINT as a template. -Reboot- 5) check that "/etc/make.conf" is using nothing higher than -O as anything higher breaks some of the ELF ojects. 6) "make aout-to-elf" Couple of odd things the aout-to-elf move will move almost all of your shared libraries but it doesnt move all of the symbolic links to the library files. Also it wont update the /var/db/pkg +CONTENTS files so pkg_delete will not work right. -David Langford To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 10 12:13:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA08678 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 12:13:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from postoffice2.direcpc.com (mail.direcpc.com [198.77.116.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA08661 for ; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 12:13:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from snowfox@newtoy.com) Received: from newtoy ([206.71.119.54]) by postoffice2.direcpc.com (Post.Office MTA v3.1.2 release (PO203-101c) ID# 0-45425U50000L50000S0) with SMTP id AAA18980 for ; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 15:13:55 -0500 Message-ID: <001a01be0ce7$66047760$7c000080@newtoy.com> From: "SnowFox" To: Subject: Slow ed revisited - D-Link DE-220P & if_ed.c multibuffering Date: Tue, 10 Nov 1998 14:19:15 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3155.0 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3155.0 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I wrote about 120-130k/s transfer rates with a D-Link DE-220P NE2000 compatible card - cable wiggling and all didn't seem to help, so I went spelunking in the code today. (*Huge hugs for open source - I learned how network cards work today... this if fun!*) =) Okay, if_ed.c detects the card as an NE2000 compatible and assigns it a 16k buffer. This much is nice. Unfortunately, ed_probe_Novell_generic defaults to creating two transmission buffers, and this is what's slowing me down. Hard-coding "sc->txb_cnt = 1" gets me upper 900k/s rates. (Bonus points for anyone who can tell me why? I'd gone into the code assuming I was on an 8k buffer witch-hunt, but the specs on D-Link's page say 16k.) I'd like to get if_ed.c patched to fix this condition for future releases, however I'm not sure how to best go about detecting this specific card. I know the plug and play string ends in "DLK2201" if the card hasn't been flashed with specific port and interrupt settings and "DLK2202" if it has, but I don't see anything that looks like an ISA PnP hunt section in FreeBSD for a reference on how to cleanly use this information. Anyone know better than me on how to handle this, or has anyone seen a good ISA PnP primer?

Yes, that's correct - the WinModem relies on using the drivers that the manufacturer supplies for Windows to drive the modem... The upshot is that the modem offloads some of the DSP functions of the modem onto the host PC, thus making the modem cheaper, and pretty useless for other operating systems (that don't have specific drivers)... (And judging by the amount of problems we've had - not too hot even when run under windows!)

Then I needed to add WinNT to the box (business requirement, not a personal preference) so I slapped in another drive trying not to touch my FreeBSD drive. I put in 4 gig IDE drive, configured BIOS to boot from C first and then SCSI, and installed NT fine. However, when I switched back the BIOS to boot from SCSI first in order to boot my FreeBSD, I got the old menu F1...DOS F2...FreeBSD but this time FreeBSD would not boot any more, it would just hang. I tried to go into fixit, and do fsck. The command fsck -y /dev/sd0s2 performs some cleanup and exits with the message /: write failed, file system is full Segmentation fault I wanted to mount my partition sd0s2a so I can check out my config files and fstab, but I do not have sd0s2a entry in my /dev/ directory while I am running fixit. All I have is sd0s1 sd0s2 ... sd0s4, and rsd0s1, ..rsd0s4. When I mount sd0s1 to mnt mount -f /dev/sd0s1 /mnt and do cd /mnt all I see is lost+found directory that has many many #9999 entries, where 9 can be any digit. My questions are 1. did I loose everything? 2. Can I somehow restore this drive and my old settings 3. If not, is there any way to recover data from the non-bootable FreeBSD drive. All I need from this disk are my data files, so if I reinstall FreeBSD on to the different drive, will I be able to recover data from this current drive?

I did get X up using the XFCom_3DLabs server for freeBSD (2.2.6) that I found via suse. I'm seeing some very strange behavior(s) though and can't find any mention in FAQ's at freebsd or XFree86. Does this ring a bell for anyone and/or any suggestions? Thanks in advance... What I see is: - lots of console messages: "calcru: negative time: -16060891 usec" (many various usec values here) - the whole machine seems to run very sluggishly, even in non-graphics mode - the calcru stuff seems mainly to start happening after having started the XFCom_3DLabs server that I had to download. But the sluggishness occurs even before that. - In graphics mode very odd stuff is evident: - xclock with almost any args streams miriad messages: "Warning Select failed: error code 22" - I have F-keys setup for warpto in my tvtwm. Often, the warpto works, but the warped-to window doesn't get focus - mouse selection is eratic: double click doesn't always work, right-click often selects entire line, rather than just up to end-of-word - when server exits, I always see: 'FreeFontPath FPE "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1; freeing' So, a lot of this seems like I should be bugging the X-server author, but the calcru stuff makes me suspicious. Should I just swap the board? Suspect something with motherboard? Or...? One more question: There is supposedly a new version of xf86Config as well, but I could only find the binray for Linux(?), none for freeBSD. I got the new cards file, but should I somehow get the new binary too? If so, where/how? Thanks, k. -- Ken Marx, kmarx@bigshed.com Eliminate redundancies in the staffing!!

The only effect this should have is that the board will no longer be able to send out back-to-back packets - all of the packets will have a small amount of delay between them.

I tried WP7 and WP8 (beta) on FreeBSD 2.2.2, 2.2.5 and 2.2.7. The result is always the same: segmentation violation while trying to load a WP6.1 file. I still have to try it on a Linux box, but in the meanwhile if someone can suggest me something to do to get sure it's not FreeBSD fault, I would appreciate very much.

I've played with the sessionlimit, accounted and ttys.accounted capabilities, used cap_mkdb (even though the comments in login.conf indicate that a login.conf.db is not mandatory) and can't achieve the results I'm looking for. I would greatly appreciate some advice on what to do from start to finish, assuming that console login / ssh can actually be restricted. Thanks, Sheldon.

It's > correct in reality. Well then... that would explain that part of it. An errno of 61 is ECONNREFUSED - which means the connection was refused; as if you're not running an X server, or not pointing to the right one. Display #1 for your local machine is at port 6001 (the normal display is on port 6000). You need to have an X server listening on 6001 as well as 6000. (Although, in /etc/services, it lists ports 6000-6063 as ports for the X11 server - you may not actually have one listening there.) Maybe it wants to be ":0" ? - Dave Rivers - > > RDM > > | Date: Tue, 10 Nov 1998 16:00:04 -0500 (EST) > | From: Thomas David Rivers > | > | > > | > I've installed vnc from the ports collection, but cannot startup > | > the server program.

Therefore, the connection refused errno is simply a symptom of the server which doesn't start (properly). In /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc, there is a file cursor.pcf.gz.

Do you have any suggestions to solve this problem? It's a bad sector on the disk. Execute the command scsi -f /dev/rsd0 -m 1 -P 0 Make sure AWRE and ARRE are enabled. If not, run scsi -f /dev/rsd0 -m 1 -P 3 -e and change the 0 to 1. Change sd0 to the disk in question.

Here is what I have done so far. I added the antispam rules from /etc/mail into my sendmail.cf. I uncommented the check_rcpt rule. I restarted sendmail. BOth sites on my list and off can still send email. The spammers are making me sick. I even rebooted the system. THose rules are never ever called. I have not upgraded to 8.9 yet, I am still on sendmail 8.8 which was delievered with 2.2.6. I really need a quick solution. I also need to allow a few people from off site to continue using email. What could cause the new rule not to do anything? I saw that somebody else had a similiar problem in the freebsd database, but nobody answered. PLEASE! I am about ready to shut my system down at night! Thanks, Mike P.S. Note this email is from compuserve.

Why don't you just shoot a copy of the 3.0 stuff over to the 2G disk, create a boot floppy, boot said boot floppy, then point it to the partition with the rest of 3.0 on it and install disk to disk? If the network is fast enough for you, you could install directly from WC or a mirror. Or its pretty easy to network install off one of your own machines. I have a 4MB 386SX16 in a luggable case (plasma display folds down and everything!) with a minimal 2.1.0 installed on its 850MB IDE HD. I sorta think of this machine as a "network cdrom" altho it doesn't have a CDROM, it does have the worlds worst (worst that actually works) 8 bit 3-Com ethernet card. Perfectly good for doing network installs (if you remember to select "slow NFS" as 1k network packets are the limit for this card and system). Perfectly good system to haul to a friend's house for an installation party back in the bad old days before I had access to a CD-R. -- 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 am sure there is a simple way, but I don't know it yet. In this situation I use the TryNullMXList option, and declare domain.com with the IP of the internal mail server, while the external mail server has the highest priority MX. TryNullMXList means "if I am the best MX for this domain, but don't handle the domain myself, try the domain as a host, rather than generating local config error". Works a treat!

First this is not a FreeBSD specific issue but I ask anyway. I am on several mailing lists, and since my mailbox is getting swamped I thought you maybe could help me or point me to a place for help. I never used procmail yet, so can any of you share a .procmailrc maybe? it would be nice to have like -questions, -current, cvs-all and so on in separately mailboxes. And I am using mutt, any tips for managing several mailboxes, or how does procmail handles this? I am a bit lazy today, I understand if you just tell me to read procmails manpage and I will, but not today :-) Best regards, Anders 'synker' Andersson synker@sanyusan.se To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 10 16:13:44 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA11426 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 16:13:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hyperhost.net ([207.159.132.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA11419 for ; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 16:13:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from patseal@hyperhost.net) Received: from asus (port7.annex8.radix.net [205.252.108.7]) by hyperhost.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id TAA05428 for ; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 19:13:21 -0500 (EST) From: "Patrick Seal" To: "FBSDQ" Subject: Ftp Permissions Date: Tue, 10 Nov 1998 19:13:17 -0500 Message-ID: <000301be0d08$14c35e40$0200a8c0@asus.hyperhost.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2377.0 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3155.0 Importance: Normal Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I want the user patseal in the wheel group to be able to upload into /usr/local/www/data/ The only way I see to do that is to change the owner from root to patseal for that directory.

You seem to be running the latest version of popper which is important.... As for INND, the one in the ports should be fine. Install things like tcp-wrappers and also ipfw. Deny all access by default, and then grant if possible access to specific hosts only for incoming connections. If you are going to administer your box remotely, use ssh to talk to the machine. There is pretty decent documentation about ipfw on the www.freebsd.org documenation pages. If you get stuck are unclear, post more questions to the list. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 10 22:57:14 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA10191 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 22:57:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from orbit.flnet.com (orbit.flnet.com [205.240.232.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA10125 for ; Tue, 10 Nov 1998 22:57:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from henrich@orbit.flnet.com) Received: (from henrich@localhost) by orbit.flnet.com (8.8.5/8.8.4) id BAA29884; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 01:56:46 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <19981110225646.23039@orbit.flnet.com> Date: Tue, 10 Nov 1998 22:56:46 -0800 From: Charles Henrich To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Riva TNT X Server for FreeBSD 2.2.7 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89i X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 2.2-BETA_A X-PGP-Fingerprint: 1024/F7 FD C7 3A F5 6A 23 BF 76 C4 B8 C9 6E 41 A4 4F Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just compiled up the XF86_SVGA server with the Riva TNT patches from the Riva web site under FreeBSD 2.2.7, and it seems to be working just peachy keen at 1920x1200@16bpp, I've uploaded the server to ftp.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming for those who might benefit.

I just finish a 10/100M fast ethernet driver for the VT86C100 fast ethernet NIC ( also, you could reference the same homepage for more info). We are eager to add our driver to the newly published FreeBSD so that the end-users could install our NICs more easily. I am wondering if I could send the source code and the NIC to you. After your test, the driver could be bundled in FreeBSD. If you want to get more details , please mail me and I'll do my best. Your help would be appreciated, thanks.

I have an ISA EtherExpress PRO/100 Card here. On the bigger chip we find: ES9752ABC4 DP83800A VF 10/100 Mb ISA MAC on the smaller one it is: ES9752ID DP83840AVCE I think the second line is the important one. It also got a 25MHz oscillator and a (empty) ROM socket. It got three LEDs: 100, ACT and LNK. A while eago, I asked on the lists about support for it but the answer was no. -Andre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 11 01:28:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA25174 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 01:28:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from host.nstl.nnov.ru (host.nstl.nnov.ru [195.98.49.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA24900 for ; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 01:27:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from alex@nstl.nnov.ru) Received: from nstl.nstl.nnov.ru (root@nstl.nstl.nnov.ru [195.98.49.71]) by host.nstl.nnov.ru (8.8.8/8.8.7) with ESMTP id MAA03249; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 12:24:09 +0300 (MSK) (envelope-from alex@nstl.nnov.ru) Received: from nstl.nstl.nnov.ru (jonny.nstl.nnov.ru [10.0.10.5]) by nstl.nstl.nnov.ru (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id MAA29299; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 12:24:09 +0300 (MSK/MSD) Date: Wed, 11 Nov 1998 12:22:52 +0300 From: Alexander Dubinin X-Mailer: The Bat!

The problem is: We have server witch "on" only when someone at work, but the last one who leave room must down it, but only I have root password and other have only users account and password to 'on' system . Please explane me how common user can down server without root password. I would like to have such solution: Add new user call 'shutdown' with password witch use then system start and when this user login system must start some script file and halt itself. Is it possible to do this ??? If yes, please tell me how can I do it. P.S.: Sorry for my English.

No... a Winmodem will not work under FreeBSD in any way shape or form. The problem is, the modem uses the system CPU and memory for it's operation. To do this you have to have special drivers. Since every Winmodem manufacturer assumes that their product goes into a Windows based PC, they wrote drivers. On the same token, it's not worth anyone's time to write FreeBSD drivers for the wide range of Winmodems on the market. As every single one is different! Besides, you're 10 times better off spending and extra $30 and getting a real modem. Now... as for your original problem, it's possible that your modem is not being reconized by the PNP driver because it's not a 'compatible' modem. (Supra, USR mostly) I had to have someone add the PNP ID string from my Boca Modem into the PNP code. So... your answer is probally to still look into investing in a new modem.

And, since you can't talk to the X server, the font isn't found. I think it's because you don't have a :1 X server running, just a :0 one... that is, you have an X server listing on port 6000, just don't have one listening on port 6001. - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 11 06:02:13 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA18090 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 06:02:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from 3rdrock.coserve.org (3rdrock.coserve.org [198.213.49.88]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA18054 for ; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 06:02:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fabry@panam.edu) Received: from earth (earth.coserve.org [198.213.49.85]) by 3rdrock.coserve.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id HAA05956 for ; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 07:59:33 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from fabry@panam.edu) Message-ID: <02ab01be0d7b$d7369690$5531d5c6@earth.coserve.org> From: "Alain G.

After your responses and reading the apache docs, it looks fairly easy to set up. Next question, with the machine having two NIC's and being on two completely different domains, I don't see a problem for individuals to telnet to either domain and ending up at the same host. But my question is the following. Will the pop3, imap, sendmail server respond and return mail to the respective individuals. f.e. let's assume I have a user1@domain1.com and a user2@domain2.org, if I send mail to both users, will sendmail process both requests and will pop3/imap answer both requests without any configuration. thanks, Alain To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 11 06:03:36 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA18162 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 06:03:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from caladan.tdx.co.uk (caladan.tdx.co.uk [195.188.177.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA18155 for ; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 06:03:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kpielorz@tdx.co.uk) Received: from tdx.co.uk (lorca-tx.tdx.co.uk [195.188.177.242]) by caladan.tdx.co.uk (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id OAA04503; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 14:03:11 GMT Message-ID: <3649991E.972CE74D@tdx.co.uk> Date: Wed, 11 Nov 1998 14:03:10 +0000 From: Karl Pielorz Organization: TDX - The Digital eXchange X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "Alain G.

Use vipw to change the user ID to 0 2. Use chmod +x /sbin/shutdown to allow ordinary users execute privilege. Solution 1 might allow users to Control-C their way to a root prompt. Solution 2 seems best to me. Anyone see any problems with solution 2 ?? Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

It has about 2,000 accesses per day. I compiled the kernel with the following options: CHILD_MAX=256 OPEN_MAX=2000 But, for instance, when I type "ls" the system often returns: "ls: .: Too many open files in system" Or, when I type "su", it returns: "Couldn't open /usr/libexec/ld.so." How do I solve this problem???? I'm having troubles with my scripts (they stopped working). Please, send the solution directly to my e-mail; I don't subscribe this list.

I don't remember why I used the funny -ic flag -- maybe it had something to do with an old system V utility of the same name? Anyway, I use it (in conjuction with a hairy awk script) to massage wtmp for login sessions that span multiple days since whatever I was doing (again, I don't remember the details) didn't account for a session until the session ended (and sometimes that was weeks later.) Anyway, maybe someone else can make use of this.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there, I came across a piece of software that claims to speed up considerably, namely idl 5.1, when running on "special hardware", because it is programmed in "OpenGL". Now, this one caught me the open, I have no idea about it at all: - I understand that OpenGL describes a standard to access video hardware (i. e. graphics adapters) that provide certain (which?) hardware facilities to accelerate graphics generation and output, is that true ? - If so, what does Xfree about it ? - Is it a client or a server issue (when using two machines)? - Is there anyone who has experience with it to comment on performance ? Any short comments (or pointers) appreciated. Thanks a lot, Best regards, Peter.

National Semiconductor has the DP83840 datasheet available on its web page, but I'm currently going through a lot of run-around to try to get the datasheet for the DP83800. Intel says they don't have an SIK for this board, and NS keeps telling me to get the datasheet for the DP83800 from their distributors, but the distributors I've talked to claim they don't have it.

It is quick hack patch for FreeBSD-2.2.7-RELEASE and ESS chipset(or other chips??). This function is from VoxWare code (sb_mixer.c). But it was changed.... I think that code is need to calcurate correctly.

A UserID like shutdown won't tell you who really invoked shutdown 2. Solution 1 has a possible security hole via Control-C Solution 2 will result in a entry in the shutdown log with the real UserID and there is no security hole, AFAIK. Solution 2 also allows the user to specify shutdown at a specified time or fifteen minutes from now. Man page has more info. Solution 1 shuts down right now. If you used /sbin/shutdown with Solution 1, you could hardcode a time, such as +15 in the passwd file, but that's not as flexible as doing it from the command line.

I have an NEC Versa V/50 laptop with 16 meg of ram and a Toshiba 250 meg hard drive. I'm attempting to install a minimal FreeBSD system (just the /bin distribution). I have successfully gone through the novice install, and it all seemed to work. I installed the normal boot manager, and used the "work and play with others" option. However, when I reboot, I get the following error: bad disklabel cant find boot.config cant find boot.help Then, I hit enter at the boot: prompt and get the message: Can't find kernel I attempted to boot directly to 0:wd(0,a)kernel and get the same message. I also tried disabeling the IDE drive in the BIOS, but that resulted in the error "No Boot Device". I have not been able to get the machine to boot at all. From the mailing lists, it seems as if the partiion got "clobbered". My question is, what caused this, and what can I do to correct the problem? I realize I will most likely have to reinstall. What should I do to prevent this from happening again? Thank you in advance!

Most experienced unix users, AFAIK, would use sed for this. I believe sed is fairly difficult to master quickly from the man page and I think your need is immediate.

An ugly way would be to have them press ctrl+alt+del, and turn it off after FreeBSD has shutdown, but before it starts up again. There have been two other suggestions already, one of them must be useable... You could also make /sbin/halt setuid root, which may work (`chmod 4555 /sbin/halt'). Don't let anyone use /sbin/shutdown, since they will be able to get a root prompt that way. I don't think they can with /sbin/halt. (Well, they could then reboot and boot up with -s to get single-user mode. I think making console insecure in /etc/ttys make solve this, since they will need to enter root's password.) I may be talking shit as well, but it may be useful... -- 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 From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 11 10:22:26 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA16176 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 10:22:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from jason05.u.washington.edu (jason05.u.washington.edu [140.142.78.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA16166 for ; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 10:22:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jcwells@u.washington.edu) Received: from saul10.u.washington.edu (root@saul10.u.washington.edu [140.142.13.73]) by jason05.u.washington.edu (8.8.4+UW97.07/8.8.4+UW98.06) with ESMTP id KAA48098; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 10:22:07 -0800 Received: from S8-37-26.student.washington.edu (S8-37-26.student.washington.edu [128.208.37.26]) by saul10.u.washington.edu (8.8.4+UW97.07/8.8.4+UW98.06) with ESMTP id KAA17361; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 10:22:06 -0800 (PST) Date: Wed, 11 Nov 1998 10:21:42 -0800 (PST) From: "Jason C.

Search for Mesa3D in our ports collection and on the net. OpenGL describes a graphics API. Some hardware follows that API. You'll have to talk to card vendors to find out which cards support it.

Hmmm, thanks for the tip, but... I did think of this, maybe putting /usr/local on the new slice, but I could see perhaps a few probs in the future. Thinking on, what if I backed up my whole /usr to a machine with a big disk on the local net and deleted my /usr.

It's a SoundBlaster 16 on a 3.0-current ELF box (supped two nights ago). Built a new kernel with pca0 and pnp0. The system recognized it on boot. Cdcontrol says it can play the disk (cdcontrol -f /dev/wcd0c play), and cdcontrol status says that the disk is playing. But my speakers are silent. I believe the hardware is properly configured; if I switch to my (dusty) NT hard drive, the card works perfectly. Any thoughts?

This is a question about validating = passwords=20 over

Then the following is executed: = (psuedo=20 code)
  If stringCipher equals=20 stringCryptedPassword

 The code works fine under AIX, = but bombs=20 under FreeBSD.

For a whole tree, something like this may work: cd /where/your/files/are find . -type f | xargs perl -npi.bak -e 's/Name/Last_Name/g' then remove all the *.bak files when it's finished.

I wanted to find out more about it. I foound that it has been giving this message since NOV 9. And so I found out that the first address chimer.unt.edu is not returning any pong, but the others are. So could it be that because chimer.unt.edu is in the first in the sequence that is why its not checking the others. I dont know what going on or could it be that cron was set wrong to jump to the next one if one server is down. I tried to find where it is configured. The rc.local file only tells cron_enable="yes". So can tell me where it is in FreeBsd 2.2.5 and can you tell me what to do please. I would really appreciate.

It's also something that a service provider may want to do. Occasionally I create test accounts and login with them for debugging purposes. However I don't want to pollute wtmp (which is used for accouting and billing) so I zap the test entries when I'm done. I have also zapped user wtmp entries from time to time so they don't get billed for a session. > I realize he may not be a *cracker*, just wanted to point out the > possibility and warn that even if he's not, your solution could be > valuable to a *cracker*. If they were a real cracker they would know how to do this themselves, it's not exactly rocket science. If they are the type that downloads cracks from rootshell.org then they probably have no idea what a wtmp file is. Also, if they get root access they will no doubt act in a destructive way which will be easy to detect (human nature). Also most cracks that gain root don't leave wtmp entries around. It's only access via login (guessed passwords) that does it. I hope nobody uses easy to guess root passwords, if they do they deserve being cracked (harsh I know).

Do you realise that /etc/passwd doesn't actually contains the encrypted passwords? On most Unix boxes that have a shadow password facility the encrypted passwords are hidden (/etc/master.passwd) unless you are root. The easiest way is to use suidperl and to make your script suid root. Then use... ($login, $pass) = getpwnam($user); ...to locate the encrypted password. > $stringCipher = crypt($stringGuess, $stringTemp) > (Where $temp is the first two characters of the encrypted password)(*) Change this to... $stringCipher = crypt($stringGuess, $stringCryptedPassword) If Perl calls the system crypt() function it will handle the MD5/DES difference automagically. By passing the full encrypted password instead of just 2 characters the crypt function can check for $1$ itself and encrypt the guessed password using MD5 instead of DES.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.1i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I did an install of FreeBSD today, and it clobbered permissions on our NFS-mounted /var/mail (changed the group to 6, which doesn't map to anything on our other machines, and changed permissions from 01777 to 0775). Is there any way of controlling whether or not the install should do this? It's a bit disconcerting, as after the change mutt is not able to read mail without overriding dotlocking, which might confuse the average user. I realize 01777 isn't the safest setting, but it works for us on our collection of operating systems and mail clients and daemons. Maybe the install could prompt if it saw an existing /var/mail that was NFS-mounted???

Your XFree86 installation is incomplete. You'll need the developers files to use imake. Get the file X332prog.tgz off your FreeBSD installation media (or off the ftp site), cd to /usr/X11R6/ and tar xzf it. Just be sure you're in /usr/X11R6 first. Aslo, if you don't need to be on the bleeding edge of AfterStep development, you might consider using the FreeBSD port or package "AfterStep-devel". It's currently at 1.4.5.3, but I'd imagine they'll be catching up soon. Cheers, Mick The Reverend Jasper P.

Does anyone know of any problems or incompatibilities with this processor and FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE or FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE? Also, I have noticed that the NE2000 ethernet cards are only listed in the ISA section of LINT. Are PCI NE2000 ethernet cards supported under FreeBSD? Thanks!

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'm having some strange problems getting a modem to work with FreeBSD. I originally started by attempting to get ppp up and running- after a vanilla 2.2.7 install. The modem is a PNP USR 56k modem, which was set to use com3 by Windows 98. ppp has no trouble recognizing the presence of the modem on cuaa2, but has a VERY strange behavior when talking to the device. (I can duplicate all these problems with minicom- I don't think ppp is the culprit, and everything works perfectly under windows98.) I tried building a new kernel with controller pnp0 in the configuration file, but the new kernel could not find any pnp devices. The computer seems to be recognizing the modem- when running ppp, I can do a set device /dev/cuaa2 and talk to the modem, but the modem does not send any characters to the console unless prompted by the next character in the input from the console. In addition, typing basic commands to the modem don't ever return any text responses. ('OK', 'NO DIALTONE', 'BUSY', etc...) For instance, I can type to the modem: "at" and it displays a until I type a "^M" and the cursor returns to the start of the line and displays at In addition, I can type "atdt1234567" and the display is always 1 character behind what I just typed. I type: display: a t a d at t atd 1 atdt 2 atdt1 3 atdt12 4 atdt123 5 atdt1234 6 atdt12345 7 atdt123456 ^M atdt1234567 and the modem correctly dials. NOW, the really funny behavior comes in. I dial up to my isp, and the modem appears to sit there idle- until I start typing spaces to the console. It appears that each space typed to the terminal echoes ~16 characters. I can hit spaces until I get to the login prompt (which has already gotten n spaces past login:), get past the authentication, switch back to packet mode (in ppp) and then sadly watch the modem disconnect... All of this while entering commands w/o spaces - just assuming that the modem is correctly sending characters to the other end of hte connection. I tried fiddling with E/F commands to teh modem to no avail... It appears to be a problem with the modem echoing incorrectly, but I have the feeling that the kernel is having some problems correctly interfacing with the vacuous (non pnp configuration of a pnp card) communication to the device. I took the liberty of printing out all the ati commands (NOTE: I held the space bar down for a good 1/2 hour to see all the characters of this output from the modem...)

Got my FreeBSD server up and running purty good now, but having a prob accomadating the Ms. Windows users... I can connect using pap fine from my 2.2.7 box to my 2.2.7 server via modem, using the newest user-ppp from www.awfulhak.org (which works great :) The one that came with the realease was extremely broken.) Using mgetty, works fine.. now the problem. Whenever I try to connect using a Win95 or WinNT DUN adapter, it goes no farther than the "Verifying username/password" (a quick look in the /var/log/ppp.log confirms that it HAS already gotten past PAP, and is in the process of negotiating a connection between 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.0.1 (!?!?) ) I have the setup 'zactly the same as for the BSD dialin, which could very well be the prob.. it's basically ppp.conf --- papcuaa0: enable pap set ifaddr x.x.x.x. 10.2.5.1 255.255.255.255 --- (regarding the 10.2.5.1; I use natd) also appropriate username/pw combos in ppp.secret Connections have successfuly been made using the after-dial terminal, so this problem seems to be mgetty/PAP related.. The Win side has nothing but the DNS set (haven't tried the auto-DNS stuff yet; wanna get this working first.) But on the good side, besides that everything works great! 'specially since I upgraded ppp, the old one was sooo broken :) I got wine to compile, (much better than I expected) ... seems all the probs I had with it came from not including all the SYSV options that can be found in LINT ... I also installed Luigi Rizzo's sound driver in order to get the linux real player 5.0 working; works wonderfully as well.. Anyway, I am firmly rooted in BSD; but I guess my Win friends aren't happy enuff with wine's (alpha) stability to switch quit yet ;-) Any suggestions - please email to frumpler@hotmail.com since I don't currently subscribe to the mailing list :/ Thnks! -form ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 11 22:02:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA01098 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 22:02:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from oz.phear.net (slwag2p27.ozemail.com.au [203.108.157.75]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA01065 for ; Wed, 11 Nov 1998 22:02:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jim@phrantic.phear.net) Received: from localhost (jim@localhost) by oz.phear.net (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id RAA01789; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 17:01:53 +1100 (EST) Date: Thu, 12 Nov 1998 17:01:52 +1100 (EST) From: Jim Mock To: Andrew McNaughton cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: pico prepends lots of U's In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 12 Nov 1998, Andrew McNaughton wrote: > I originally installed FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE and have cvsuped to > 2.2.7-RELEASE.

ANY help wil be Sounds almost like it could be a termination problem. Have you checked your drives and controller card to be sure that the first and last device on the chain is terminated (accounting for external devices as well as internal), and that no others are? Also, if you have only internal devices and no external (or the other way around) and your SCSI had an automatic termination setting, if you can, force the card to have termination on rather than using the automatic setting. I've found that to be a help on my Adaptec 2940. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

Do you have access to the source of this program/command? What language is it written in? If it's in C, you can probably hack it to make use of the syslog(3) interface.

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 More info / thoughts on the modem echo problem ... I got a new ppp from awfulhak.org, and tried to use gdb to trace some the data flow from tty<->socket<->tun0(?)<->kernel<->/dev/cuaa2 (This is purely speculation- feel free to correct, as I have only a slight idea of tun0's purpose...) I stumbled upon the following hack in the source, and thought it might be relevant: #ifdef __FreeBSD__ /* * A FreeBSD hack to dodge a bug in the tty driver that drops output * occasionally.... I must find the real reason some time. To display * the dodgy behaviour, comment out this bit, make yourself a large * routing table and then run ppp in interactive mode. The `show route' * command will drop chunks of data !!! */ if (mode == PHYS_INTERACTIVE) { close(STDIN_FILENO); if (open(_PATH_TTY, O_RDONLY) != STDIN_FILENO) { fprintf(stderr, "Cannot open %s for input !\n", _PATH_TTY); return 2; } } #endif Now, this alludes to an error _reading_ input from the tty, and it seems that the error is in ouput getting to the terminal from the modem. Though, after some more thought, I was thinking that this might be something do do with the way that the tty is using select() to get input from the fds... I thought that maybe if input from the console was triggering a callback to tell that the MODEM was ready with output, it would account for the output from teh modem getting to the console after each input... In addition, I noticed that when trying to get the disagnostics from the modem by holding down the space bar thr output from the modem would proceed in approximately the same rate as the repeat rate from the keyboard. Trying to be semi-automated, I started pasting mouse-buffers filled with spaces. To my dismay it slowed the output from the modem IMMENSELY. Could the X paste grab small chunks of spaces, and pass them to the shell running minicom? Each pasted chunk of spaces would generate a single select() interrupt and signal a byte to be read from the modem. When the modem is connected to my isp, puhing space is enough to generate a sizeable block of data to be read from the modem. Is this completely in the wrong direction? Help! Its a horrible end to be using windows 98 to type mail... Josh (This is a semi-followup to a message earlier tonight entitled "funky modem echo!")

What I'd like is an extra layer on the TCP/IP stack for win'95 systems, which would give the client a second IP-number for access to the inarts of the company LAN. This would be through an encrypted tunnel over the already build public IP connection. Termination would be on a VPN-server on the company LAN, or at the firewall. I could be a NT-system, but prefably a FreeBSD (Linux) box. I'd prefer it on a seperate server, since I believe in keeping functions apart, and I'd rather not combina a VPN-encryption server and a firewall. - Does anybody use commecial software which can do this?

Interactive AS Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm trying to profile a program using "gcc -pg" and gprof, but I'm not getting any stats from beyond the initializing code: After writing 63356 (exactly 2^16 :)) bytes to gmon.out, no further output is generated, even though the program appears to be running flawlessly, handeling incoming transactions with no problems at all. (everything is compiled with -pg, "make clean" is done, there is plenty of room on the disk & so on. No obvious blunders I could find). Does anyone have a clue about where I should start to look for a solution to this one?

This gives me better transmission rates - on a 20 meg binary transfer, I get upper 900k/s xmission rates, but receives are sitting in the middle 600k/s range now. Interestingly enough, leaving duplex enabled but forcing single packet transmissions in if_ed brings the receiving rate up substantially while bringing the transmission rate down to the 800k/s range. I'm definitely out of my element here - I've not done anything with device drivers since some tape device work in Amiga days, but I'm having too much fun to stop. I'm going to track down authentic NE2000 and revised duplex 10-BaseT specifications to see if I can make this work without limiting the card to simplex . I've already contacted D-Link about their JITI extension to the NE2000 standard so I can find out if any precautions need to be taken to guarantee smooth operation. Also, I spotted Sujal's ISA PnP extensions. Is there any reason these aren't being supported here? I'd like to have a hand at folding in interrupt and address detection and would appreciate mail from anyone willing to give a revised if_ed.c a try. ____________________Reply Separator____________________ Subject: Re: SLOW ethernet send...

Get out the card's setup software and you might find that the card reckons it's in DUPLEX. Set it to SIMPLEX. Let us know what happens.

The only differance is that I got a slightly better quality, external ISDN modem. (Adtran XRT) All I had to do was change the cauu device in the PNP configuration. Then I used 'tip yy' at the command prompt to access the modem. At that point there is a command that allowed me to go into a visual configuration mode, I choose to automatically update SPIDs, exited out, killed Tip, and it started automatically dialing. Now.... the Motorola dosen't have automatic SPID update (which is the main reason I didn't buy it,) but you should have about as many problems. :) Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 12 05:18:28 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA06769 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 05:18:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dsinw.com (dsinw.com [207.149.40.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA06764 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 05:18:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from hamellr@dsinw.com) Received: from direct-source.com.direct-source.com (ppp118.pm3-0.pdx.dsinw.com [207.149.41.118]) by dsinw.com (8.8.8/8.7.3) with SMTP id FAA05763; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 05:15:30 -0800 (PST) Date: Thu, 12 Nov 1998 05:13:26 -0800 () From: Rick Hamell To: Justin cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: certificate In-Reply-To: <364AAD6A.3A9C3CCA@sensation.net.au> Message-ID: X-X-Sender: hamellr@dsinw.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > i was just wondering right, > microsoft have all there courses like, mcp and mcse certification > but does FreeBSD have anything like that ???? > or if not do you guys if theres a unix networking or unix general or > unix anything type certification you can get ?? > thanks alot :) Well, you might want to check out your local community college. There is no official 'certification' for FreeBSD. There may be for of the 'bigger' Unix systems, probally of an in-house type. (Engineer Bob working at xxx company has earned xxx companies Unix certificaton.) Either way, in my opinion, certifications are pretty much a way for the big companies to make money off stupid people. Though they can in some cases be good learning tools if you're jumping in feet first.

I have built two custom kernels, one without X server and using a SCO terminal, and the other with X server using the vt100 terminal. I have followed the directions in the FreeBSD manual, but it just does not seem to want to work. Here are the two kernel configuration files. When I load the first one, called "KAIBSDKRNL", I get no error messages upon bootup, everything seems to work fine, including my mouse and vi. When I load the second, called "NEWKAIKRNL", I get several errors upon bootup, my mouse stops working, and directional keys in vi stop working. The errors that I get are as follows: rc.i386 configuring syscons: Keymapkbdcontrol: setting keymap: inappropriate ioctl for device blank_timevid control: must be on a virtual console: inappropriate ioctl for device mousedmoused: cannot open /dev/consolectl: device not configured vidcontrol: must be on a virtual console: inappropriate ioctl for device. I have also included my rc.i386 file. There really is only a two line difference between the two kernel config files, and that is at the terminal section. Any assistance you could provide me would be greatly appreciated. I am fairly new to unix and have really hit a snag.

You can't undelete files under FreeBSD, or any unix-like system for that matter. This is because the unix filesystem is not designed for undelete.

I've been using idled for quite a while now with no problems. It works very well, and is easy to set up. The documentation is very understandable. idled is in your ports collection, if you have them installed, under /usr/ports/sysutils/idled. ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

Ugh. PPTP is riddled with holes; search for "PPTP security" on any search engine to find out why. Right now, I'm using the KAME IPsec stack to connect two FreeBSD boxes using IPsec over IPv4. You get an additional benefit of getting IPv4 over IPv4 (IPIP) tunneling as well if you don't want the overhead of IPsec. -- Jason T.

Supposse FBSD is installed in the second drive (drive D) and the only booting sequece is A:, C:(according to the BIOS), will FBSD be able to boot? Can Boot Manager handle this? Is Boot Manager always installed in the C drive. 3. If I choose to install everything(select 'ALL', 'All'... during the process), how much HD space do I need?

I have System Commander installed on the 10.2G. I have installed FreeBSD on the ide0 slave (1.2 G) drive. Here is the problem: I boot my machine, and it comes up in System Commander. I select Win95 and everything is hunky dory. I reboot, and it comes up in System Commander. I select FreeBSD and everthing is hunky dory. I reboot, and for some reason the active partition is no longer active, and no other partition has been set as active. The result: Everytime I boot FreeBSD, the next time I reboot I have to boot with a floppy, run fdisk, and reset the active partition. This would be ok if I never rebooted after starting FreeBSD, but alas, that is not possible. :) I have tried installing with the normal master boot record and with the boot loader, and have seen the same behavior. Has anybody seen this before? Do you have any suggestions? Would using the don't use a master boot record selection work? Can I do that without reinstalling? Thanks!

My next question is where do you get the install CDs from? Also, the computer I am planning to install the system on does not have a CD-ROM. Is it possible to break the files from a different computer using a zip drive? Please let me know as I think this system looks very good. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Olivier Onorato.

Have you installed Star Office? I noticed this exact problem on my machine when I installed it. Basically, somehow the LANG environment variable is being set. To find out what is causing it to be set try: % grep LANG `ls -A $HOME` and then edit any configuration files which set this. If Star Office has caused this, you will need to edit your .sd.sh or .sd.csh.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Has anyone successfullly run kppp under FreeBSD using the ppp daemon. I have pppd properly setup (it works fine on the command line), but when I try to run kppp under KDE 1.0, it properly dials my ISP, the chat script sends the right information, but after "Authenticating the Network" or somesuch, it immediately hangs up and reports a "the ppp daemon died unexpectedly!." Strangely, the /real/ pppd apparently then takes over, dials the ISP and establishes a properly connection, leaving the kppp error dialog standing sheapishly there. I searched the KDE archives and bug reporting list, but no problems of the nature I described could be found. Furthermore, none of the bug reports involved someone using FreeBSD. I then tried searching the FreeBSD archives for the past two days and got this: None of the archives you requested () are available at this time. [That doesn't look right ^^^] Please try again later, or return to the search page and select a different archive. I did /specifically/ check off the questions box and used to /proper/ search and submit box, yet there is nothing in the ()?? Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Input errors can be caused by a variety of things, including cabling problems, wrong duplex, and input buffer overflows. What sort of machine is this (CPU/motherboard)? 5Mbps is relatively very low traffic. For comparison, wcarchive does around 85Mbps on average, with uptimes that have been in the months. What version of FreeBSD are you using? Are the interfaces operating in 10Mbps mode or 100Mbps mode? There is a hardware bug when using them in 10Mbps mode that can be (and is in newer versions of FreeBSD) worked around in software. The bug causes the receiver to go dead. It looks like you're using a switch (no collisions); what type of switch are you using and how is the duplex configured? -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 12 14:09:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA29169 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 14:09:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mxrelay.lanminds.com (mxrelay.lanminds.com [208.25.88.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA29164 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 14:09:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jb@syndicate.net) Received: from syndicate.net (usr1-dialup60.mix1.Bloomington.cw.net [166.55.19.60]) by mxrelay.lanminds.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id OAA10199 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 14:08:41 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <364B5C2F.716969AD@syndicate.net> Date: Thu, 12 Nov 1998 14:07:43 -0800 From: James Brown Organization: SYNDICATE Consulting Group, Inc.

I plan on using it as a firewall Man if your 200mmx is a firewall whats the rest of your system look like :-) I hook up using isc-dhcp2 and I use natd for my internal network If you get isc-dhcp2 working the natd stuff is so your internal network can also use the same connection.

I'd just calculate the difference, but there's that whole } PST/PDT thing. Suggestions? You can start cron in an environment where $TZ is set to GMT - rather than the following line in /etc/rc: echo -n ' cron'; cron you might try: echo -n ' cron'; TZ=GMT cron This will cause cron to schedule your jobs according to GMT, so if you had 23 23 * * * /bin/date your job would run at 23:23 GMT. However, the output of /bin/date will reflect your local timezone. For me, the output of the above scenario is Thu Nov 12 17:23:01 CST 1998 So you'll need to arrange for your jobs themselves to also set $TZ if you want them to output in GMT as well. -- Jon Hamilton hamilton@pobox.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 12 15:39:54 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA11865 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 15:39:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gamefish.pcola.gulf.net (gamefish.pcola.gulf.net [198.69.72.22]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA11852 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 15:39:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from psalzman@gamefish.pcola.gulf.net) Received: from localhost (psalzman@localhost) by gamefish.pcola.gulf.net (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id XAA06108; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 23:38:58 GMT (envelope-from psalzman@gamefish.pcola.gulf.net) Date: Thu, 12 Nov 1998 23:38:58 +0000 (GMT) From: Phillip Salzman To: "Alain G.

I installed the package version, which was not compiled with -DAUTO_PPP. Thanks for the tip. Our dialup server was running Linux until last week, when it ate it's disk drive. We got a new IBM DCAS 4.3G UW SCSI a couple of days ago, and the resident Linuxhead is gone, so I'm FreeBSDing the system. He'll be amused when he gets back. ;^) We're also planning on sticking a 16-port serial board into this beast to talk to the serial consoles on some of our lab equipment. Do you have any suggestions for good, high-density serial boards? We'd like one that allows us to use RJ-45 connectors on a rackmount panel, if possible. Thanks again for the help, Jack. As usual, the FreeBSD support line comes through in record time! -- Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?

Yes -- you'll have to access the file(s) again to get them to remap, but after that they should be okay.

Actually, it appears that the disk controller is loosing the DMA channel. Perhaps you have two devices sharing a DMA channel, like a soundcard?

In general it's highly discouraged due to potential spool corruption. To improve the permissions on the mail spool, make all of your mail program sgid mail.

Please explain what you mean by 'lost my old configuration.' If you were expecting the -c changes to migrate, they won't.

NT is... ummmm..., well. Anyway... the general order of things is this: 1. Build BSD gateway with 2 NIC's: one for the subnet, the other for a direct connection to the motorola box. 2.

To get my 2.2.5 boxen up with 2 PCI variants, I needed to add two lies for ed0 *and* ed1 *without* any options set for either. The driver then lookes for PCI cards and finds them. -Chuck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 12 18:06:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA02810 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 18:06:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from support.centercomp.com ([206.129.174.240]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA02787 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 18:06:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from eric@clean.net) Received: from snmp (midgard-42.PEAK.ORG [198.68.22.106]) by support.centercomp.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id SAA17298 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 18:02:08 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <4.1.19981112180347.00b21100@clean.net> X-Sender: eric@clean.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.1 (Demo) Date: Thu, 12 Nov 1998 18:05:24 -0800 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Eric Hake Subject: Slow User PPP?

Local traffic between the FreeBSD and NT boxes gets to the NT box just fine, but anything else looks fine according to tcpdump, but never gets recognized by the NT box. The NT box has TCP/IP, IP address is 10.0.2.17, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 10.0.2.15, and the FreeBSD rl0 is configured as 10.0.2.15, netmask 255.255.255.0 and broadcast 255.255.255.255. This was working fine before I upgraded (although I was using a NE2000 card then, and the NE2000 seems to have died since then), and I don't understand why local traffic works, but anything returning from the internet does not.

Unlike RoadRunner users, you don't have a 'login' issue to deal with. However, you may or may not have a static IP with @home. If you *do* have a dynamic IP address, then you'll need a DHCP *client*. There is an ISC version in the ports collection but I prefer to fetch my own(www.isc.org). In general, you will want to: 1. Build BSD box as you *seem* to have done. 2. Get your DHCP client up and running(if you need it). 3. Fix any admin details like resolv.conf Don't forget, get all the @home connection info *before* you start (eg nameserver IP, your IP address if static, etc...). -Chuck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 12 18:50:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA07672 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 18:50:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from uz.ComCAT.COM (uz.ComCAT.COM [204.170.64.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA07667 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 18:50:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jerryr@ComCAT.COM) Received: from uw.comcat.com (uw [204.170.64.249]) by uz.ComCAT.COM (8.8.8/8.8.8/sol2/mh/19980701) with ESMTP; id VAA00525; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 21:50:00 -0500 (EST) Received: from localhost by uw.comcat.com (8.9.1a/8.9.1/sol2/clnt/19981012) with SMTP id VAA03242 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 21:49:56 -0500 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: uw.comcat.com: jerryr owned process doing -bs Date: Thu, 12 Nov 1998 21:49:56 -0500 (EST) From: Jerry X-Sender: jerryr@uw To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FTP upload access to site 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'm trying to give particular users access to directories under my domain example: domain.com/stuff/user1 domain.com/stuff/user2 I want each to be able to upload to their own dir only (user1, user2). but I also want the dirs to be seen on the web without ~ username etc... just as is domain.com/stuff/user* .

They have slightly different formats. man 5 crontab says: The format of a cron command is very much the V7 standard, with a number of upward-compatible extensions. Each line has five time and date fields, followed by a user name (with optional ``:'' and ``/'' suffixes) if this is the system crontab file, followed by a command. It sounds like you copied the system crontab into root's crontab. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 12 19:57:52 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA15156 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 19:57:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mailhost2.cac.washington.edu (mailhost2.u.washington.edu [140.142.33.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA15151 for ; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 19:57:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dmorrisn@u.washington.edu) Received: from u.washington.edu (D-128-95-141-86.dhcp.washington.edu [128.95.141.86]) by mailhost2.cac.washington.edu (8.9.1+UW98.09/8.9.1+UW98.09) with ESMTP id TAA05196; Thu, 12 Nov 1998 19:57:28 -0800 Message-ID: <364BAEF1.F99866E3@u.washington.edu> Date: Thu, 12 Nov 1998 20:00:49 -0800 From: Don Morrison X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.07 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Doug White CC: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: so-called "spindown" problem References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Actually, it appears that the disk controller is loosing the DMA channel. > Perhaps you have two devices sharing a DMA channel, like a soundcard? > I do have an old sb awe-32 installed, how (where) can I check to see if this is what's causing the problem?

I've tried converting it to BMP format using the xview program & I've also altered the line in my .fvwm95rc file which executes the xsetroot program. After logging out & logging back in via XDM, my background image failed to appear. So I then typed the following line in an xterm window: xsetroot -bitmap & where is the full path of my desired BMP file. The xsetroot program responds with the following error message: xsetroot: bad bitmap format file: where is the name of my BMP file. Is it really possible to get a JPEG image to show up as the background of my fvwm95 desktop automatically upon login via XDM? And if so, how? I'm using version 2.2.5 of FreeBSD, but I doubt this little bit of info will be useful in answering my question.

You can't convert an rpm to a package. You can, however, install Qmail from the port (/usr/ports/mail/qmail). You can also compile it directly from the sources; it compiles cleanly, and there are FreeBSD-specific instructions in the Qmail tarball for configuring the various user accounts Qmail needs. You'll have problems compiling Vmailmgr, though. You'll need to install the egcs compiler port or package first, and set the environment variables CC and CXX to /usr/local/bin/gcc and /usr/local/bin/g++, respectively, before running ./configure. You'll also find that "make install" will fail initially, and you'll have to edit lib/Makefile and lib-cgi/Makefile to get it to install. I'm using Vmailmgr in testing on one of my FreeBSD 2.2.7 boxes, and it seems to be running fine.

But I thought that's only needed when I am dealing with non-realistic IPs. Before I have DSL, I had PPP account with multiple IPs and I just connect the crossover cable between the NICs on my two FBSD machines: no NATD needed. The method depicted on www.freebsddiary.com was to redirect the traffic to two machines without real IP. Is my understanding to the problem correct?

Cold Fusion rocks. You might want to check out PHP (http://www.php.net). PHP3 is Open Source, is available now, installs flawlessly on FreeBSD, and is way better than Cold Fusion. I'm in the middle of converting a pretty big site from Cold Fusion to PHP3, and I can't wait 'till it's done.

Thanks, I might try that, though that'll make everything in cron run at GMT. I was hoping for a way to control that per item. I've also been considering the possibility of just configuring the whole system for GMT instead of local time, but I'm not sure what kinds of annoying side-effects that might have.

I have an Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B in a P200 box running a FreeBSD 2.2.6-BETA (a few days before 2.2.6 came out... has an uptime of about 210 days now, been running ever since I set it up ) and Samba that talks to various Win95 clients ranging from 486DX/33s to 486DX4/100s all with 3COM EtherLink III NICs in them. When transferring data between any of the clients and the server, collision rates are absolutely horrible, and traffic flow oscillates between a fair amount of real data passing (500-700kb/sec) to so many collisions that no data passes at all (according to netstat -w1). The collision indicator on the hub is lit solid when any transfers are occurring. I recently added a K6-233 client with a Pro/100B in it and now get a consistent 800-950KB/sec between it and the server with not nearly as many collisions as with the other clients. The only explanation I can think of at this time is there is some kind of odd timing difference between the Pro/100B and some other types of NICs, just bad enough to cause storms of collisions. On a similar note, I have Pro/100B's in all of our servers at work, and never experience collision problems like this. Of course, we're in a heavily switched environment. :-) Well, I do have one setup in a (underpriveledged, technolgy-wise) classroom with a Pro/100B in a P133 server running (ugh) NT talking to clients with cheap NE2000 clones and Intel EtherExpress ISA NICs, and get collision storms with some of the clients, but not others (some do/don't among identical clients, even).

So I worked at the workstation console itself. I found that for example if I typed 'ping localhost' or 'netstat xxxx' functions I iether got timeouts or long waits.

The only one was the /sys/i386/KERNEL - but I suspect that was what caused the problems in the first place. - There was a /kernel.config file but this was empty.

Please explain what you mean by 'lost my old configuration.' If you were expecting the -c changes to migrate, they won't.

The developers realised what they had spawned, and crept off to live in a cave on a mountain somewhere :) The manpage has it exactly right when it says: "A weird imagination is most useful to gain full advantage of all the features." Still, it does the job admirably well: here we have several hundred machines, 5 different OSes, all automounting madly from a mixed bag of FreeBSD/SunOS/Solaris servers. I've only ever seen it die due to pilot error, which is more than you can say for Sun's efforts in the same line.

You don't say how you installed it - Was it from the ports collection? - Have you rebuilt your system (i.e. was it ever 2.2.6?) - Maybe you'd installed Squid previously, and its the one from the older system? > The conf file didn't have the log file line uncommented at first so I > did that, the file also didn't exists at first but it does now. > > I am only using one user - root so I do *think* it can be security on > the file. Squid rarely runs as root - it normally runs as 'unknown' or on our systems as a seperate user called 'squid' - It's complaining because it can't write to it's log files... Look through your squid config file - and find out who it's running as, then touch the log files, and chown them to the user Squid is running as... Of course, you might not have those directories to begin with, again - check they exist and are writeable by the user Squid is running as...

There has been a lot of hype about ssh recently, try www.rootshells.com as a good starting place... The last I heard was that there is a 'known' potential problem with running SSH compiled on certain versions of Linux with Kerberos support, but I'm not claiming to be the authority on it...

Here is what I did. 1. Setup DNS MX record for new domain to point to the same host as the one serving the old domain. 2. Made an entry in /etc/sendmail.cw file to accept mail for the new domain. 3. Created several entries in /etc/virtusertable.txt file like this userid@mailhost.newdomain.com localuserid 4. Compiled virtusertable.txt into virtusertable.db with makemap program. 5. Uncommented out Kvirtuser entry in sendmail.cf and changed db type to hash 6. Refreshed the sendmail daemon. Problem is when I send a mail to someone who has identical mail ids in both domains it works OK. In case userids do not match, e.g. webmaster@newdomain.com is a different person than webmaster@olddomain.com, virtusertable entries are completely ignored and message gets send to the webmaster@olddomain.com . In case userid in the old domain does not exist, message does not get delivered at all with an error message: uknown user. This again makes me think that virtusertable does nothing.

Also, should the virtual user table look like: webmaster@olddomain.com localuserid webmaster@newdomain.com anotherlocaluserid (i.e. get rid of the 'mailhost' portion)?

Maybe you can help. I want to develop a Community FreeNet,but I am unhappy with what I have seen in other cities. When members/guests sign on I would like them to experience an "AOL" type of community. My quandary is with Web, Mail, Chat, FTP, & News server applications which will I need to add to FreeBSD and which are compatible and how should they interlink ie: separate boxes? Your assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Static links persist in- * definitely and represent fixed rules for translating IP packets. Dynamic * links come into existence for a specific TCP connection or UDP transac- * tion or ICMP echo sequence. For the case of TCP, the connection can be * monitored to see when the associated aliasing link should be deleted. * Aliasing links for UDP transactions (and ICMP echo and timestamp re- * quests) work on a simple timeout rule. When no activity is observed on a * dynamic link for a certain amount of time it is automatically deleted. * Timeout rules also apply to TCP connections which do not open or close * properly. Timeout values are defined as follows: #define ICMP_EXPIRE_TIME 60 #define UDP_EXPIRE_TIME 60 #define TCP_EXPIRE_TIME 90 NATd uses default values. Hope this will help you a bit.

I created usernames and made their > 'home' dir stuff. But its not seen on the web?? First, it would have been nice to tell us if you are using Apache or some other product. Second, assuming you are using Apache, you must have either A) Not read the docs, or B) Not edited the configuration files. Since I've been guilty of both, I won't pass judgement on you, but that's not to say others won't. If you are using Apache, and the latest and greatest (1.3.3, compiles/runs "out of the box"), the following from srm.conf should ring bells: # UserDir: The name of the directory which is appended onto a user's home # directory if a ~user request is recieved. UserDir public_html Write a script to add the directory to everyone's home dir. This requires changing the permissions to something more acceptable, like ~/ at 0701 and ~/public_html/ at 0755. As for uploading, the permissions you set on the filesystem govern that. Obviously, you want them to be able to write to their home directory. The only problem I see with this is that the users can become confused when uploading through Netscape or another browser because ftp(1) and it's clones start in the user's home directory. Netscape needs to know "/home/$USER/public_html/". $USER is, of course, the username. -- Kris Kirby UAH Mail UAH CS Home WWW ------------------------------------------- TGIFreeBSD... 'Nuff said.

When you run it, it executes an instance of Xvnc, which is a modified X server. In this case, it's being run on the display neale.econ.vt.edu:1. For some reason, Xvnc can't find the cursor font file and dies here. > > _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61 > > _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61 > > _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61 > > _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61 > > _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61 > > _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 61 > > xrdb: Interrupted system call > > xrdb: Can't open display 'neale.econ.vt.edu:1' [snip] These (and following) error messages are produced when vncserver tries to start up a set of X window clients for you (similar to xinit after it starts up a X server). They all run with $DISPLAY set to neale.econ.vt.edu:1, so that they will connect to the Xvnc server, rather than any "normal" X Windows server that might be running on the machine. Unfortunately, since Xvnc died above, all of these clients fail too (hence "errno = 61"). Russel D.

Since you have a /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/cursor.pcf.gz, the problem might be that /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir is missing or corrupted. You might want to see if this latter file exists (and is readable, etc.) and that it contains a line that looks like this: cursor.pcf.gz cursor Just for the record, Thomas David Rivers wrote: > I think it's because you don't have a :1 X server running, just > a :0 one... that is, you have an X server listing on port 6000, just > don't have one listening on port 6001. This is right, except that the X server that was supposed to be listening on port 6001 (a.k.a. display :1) was really the Xvnc server.

To do so, add a line to /usr/local/etc/idled.conf that reads: exempt login all For example, to prevent myself from being logged out, the line I'd add reads: exempt login data all ("data" is my login name.) ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

It usually happens after several (in my case many) reboots. The file system cannot be checked, and any attempt to do so generates an even more corrupt file system. In my case I'd been running FreeBSD for a couple of days, then started running Windoze for about a week, then when I tried to boot the FreeBSD partition I got the is message. The file systems get badly corrupted (I had some _VERY_ intereting special files the last time this happened - as in directories changed to special files with really weird major/minor numbers). About the only thing to do is reload... :-(!! When this happened to me first I reformatted the partition as DOS and did a scandisk throuogh with surface scan; no media errors were found. No media error messages are ever logged, so I suspect it's not a media problem. The configuration is as follows: - Libretto 70CT, 32M RAM, 3.2Gb IDE hard drive - FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE - Drive parititioned 2GB for Windoze, 1GB for FreeBSD - Windoze '95 factory installed In each case the box ran for days or weeks with no problems, then this error occurs. There does not appear to be a way to recover the file system. Help!! :-0!!

Will they be able to run Netscape on their machines? I want to experiment but I need a pointer to start. Thank you.

I once had the unenviable job of writing a Sun-style automount map parser. We had a program that was supposed to be able to check files in user's home directories, and only check the ones that were actually hosted on THIS machine, to avoid automount storms. My first cut worked no-so-well, but then we had a new guy, a friend of mine from college, come to work for us. I pushed the job off onto him, and he finished it in an amazing 11 months. Ugh. > Still, it does the job admirably well: here we have several hundred > machines, 5 different OSes, all automounting madly from a mixed bag of > FreeBSD/SunOS/Solaris servers.

First, the amd command: amd -p -k i386 -l syslog /home /etc/amd.home /home is (of course) where our home directories need to show up. The /etc/amd.home map looks like: /defaults type:=nfs;sublink:=${key};opts:=rw,intr,grpid jer rhost:=thrallo;rfs:=/export/home/jer wpeters rhost:=salty;rfs:=/export/home/wpeters Now when I try to login to one of these accounts, or just cd to their home directory, I get: bash-2.01# cd ~jer bash: cd: /home/jer: No such file or directory But mount shows: bash-2.01# mount /dev/sd0s2a on / (local) /dev/sd0s2f on /usr (local) /dev/sd0s2e on /var (local) procfs on /proc (local) amd:2372 on /home thrallo:/export/home/jer on /a/thrallo/export/home/jer and the following filesystem entries: bash-2.01# ls -l /home total 1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 30 Nov 13 11:32 jer -> /a/thrallo/export/home/jer/jer and /a/thrallo/export/home/jer is mounted and readable.

And does it contain the requested "jer" subdirectory? >So, what's up? Have I hosed the configuration somehow? I rather suspect that if what you showed was the entire content of your map file, it could be replaced by: /defaults type:=nfs;rfs:=/export/home;sublink:=${key};opts:=rw,intr,grpid jer rhost:=thrallo wpeters rhost:=salty Here, for example, is an excerpt from a similar file in use here (which we actually use as a source for a NIS-supplied map): /defaults type:=link;fs:=/n/${rhost}/${rhost}${path} dhw rhost:=pau-amma ambrisko rhost:=crab jim rhost:=hal julian rhost:=shrimp mark rhost:=cheetah archie rhost:=bubba bmann rhost:=chaco Note that specifes type=link, vs. NFS. Here's the map that completes the picture: /defaults rhost:=${key} * host!=${key};type:=host;fs:=${autodir}/${rhost}/root;opts:=nfsv2,nosuid,grpid,soft,intr \ host==${key};type:=link;fs:=/ So that way, from my own desktop (pau-amma), I don't try to use a loop-back NFS mount to refer to my home directory; it's merely (the illusion of) a symlink. But from other machines, it does the expected NFS stuff. In general, I've found that avoidance of loopback NFS mounts is a Good Thing. That, combined with specifying nfsv2, has actually made the difference from being able to crash my machine by running a "make" to uptimes of weeks. david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 13 11:27:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA18512 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 11:27:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from eis-msg-002.jpl.nasa.gov (eis-msg-002.jpl.nasa.gov [137.78.160.158]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA18498 for ; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 11:27:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bkwan@mail1.jpl.nasa.gov) Received: from bhk-pc ([137.78.161.236]) by eis-msg-002.jpl.nasa.gov (Netscape Mail Server v2.02) with SMTP id AAA12191; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 11:26:49 -0800 Message-Id: <3.0.3.32.19981113112457.00942a00@mail1.jpl.nasa.gov> X-Sender: bkwan@mail1.jpl.nasa.gov X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.3 (32) Date: Fri, 13 Nov 1998 11:24:57 -0800 To: Niek Albers From: "Bruce H.

I just got one started up and noticed that when I try to use the disk administrator in NT it states: No signature found on Disk 0. Writing a signature is a safe operation and will not affect the ability to access this disk from other operating systems such as DOS. I've never allowed this signature writing for fear that it will mess up my boot manager that allows me to choose between NT and Freebsd at startup. Does anybody know what would happen if I did allow this signature writing to occur? Thanks!

I believe it is the old WaveLAN/PCMCIA, not the IEEE 802.11. I vaguely remember Craig saying something about updating the card to 802.11. Will 2.2.7+PAO work only with the new card? When I plug in the Wavelan card, it recognizes: wlp0: nwid [0:0] mac:[8:0:6a:2a:6:5c] it recognizes it as PCMCIA 915 MHz. When I use wlconfig to find out the configuration etc., I got: # wlconfig wlp0 wlconfig: get PSA: Invalid argument When I tried to set the nwid with the number Jon gave us, I got: # wlconfig wlp0 nwid A913 I got the same error message saying PSA: Invalid argument. Similarly when I try to change the irq. Maybe we have the wrong entry for the card in /etc/pccard.conf: # NCR Wavelan PCMCIA # If you want to use Japanese version, uncomment the second config # line and comment-out the first line. card "Lucent Technologies" "WaveLAN/PCMCIA" # config default "wlp0" any # US version (915MHz) config default "wlp0" 10 # US version (915MHz) # config default "wlp0" 10 0x01 # Japanese version (2.4GHz) ether wavelan insert echo WaveLAN PCMCIA inserted insert /etc/pccard_ether $device remove echo WaveLAN PCMCIA removed remove /etc/pccard_ether_remove $device I have tried the other config lines above with no improvement. The wlp0 entry in the kernel is set to irq 10. Any ideas? Thank you.

I don't understand what you're trying to do, but a word of caution: watch /etc/fstab and make sure it's correct at all times. If you get fstab out of sync you better have a fixit floppy/CD handy.

Hmm, I think that you misunderstand the purpose of tcpdump. I don't believe there is any way for tcpdump to show errors, it only shows the content of the network packets.

You need to amend your kernel config file's device specifications with the resources of your devices (ie, ethernet card), or boot -c after installing your new kernel and configure the resources there. I suggest the former, that way the settings stick with each kernel built.

The 'read error' comes from making a disk dediated (ie, no partition table) and your BIOS can't handle it. You'll have to reinstall, and select 'yes' to the question 'do you want to make this partition compatible with future operating systems?'.

In 2.2.x, the only tape drive supported are SCSI tape drives, but luckily all such drives work fine.

I've noticed too that the boxes you click on to select which archives to search have checks in win95 and are grey when selected in 2.2.6. Could it be that I'm having a font problem?

You've just experienced the famous HP 'stairstepping' problem. By default HP printers are set up to require CR/LF as an end-of-line indication, while UNIX just sends CR. There is either jumper settings or an escape code in your manual that will change the EOL setting. I don't know what it is for the LJII off the top of my head.

Since most of my (not included) users are from thrallo, which has two home disks, here's what I've got now: /defaults type:=nfs;rhost:=thrallo;rfs:=/export/home;sublink:=${key}; opts:=rw,intr,grpid jthomas rfs:=/export/home1 dmorgan rfs:=/export/home larsen rfs:=/export/home dduffy rfs:=/export/home cpanza rfs:=/export/home1 jer rfs:=/export/home wpeters rhost:=salty (The /defaults line is wrapped here for clarity, but not in the original) It seems like I should be able to leave off the rfs:= for users on thrallo:/export/home, but that doesn't work. I guess there has to be something in the second column?

This machine is all remote mounts; it doesn't have any home directories on it. I'm moving my FreeBSD workstation to automounts once this is working, so I'll pay close attention to the loopback avoidance code.

This seems to be a problem with the ISA NE2000 cards (not just for FreeBSD but W95 as well). PCI NE2000 cards seem to be OK. Eddie.

Chalk one up for the good guys. I convinced management to let me set up a freebsd box for virtual web hosting when we discovered we were over our licensing on our BSDI servers. Quick question: When setting up virtual hosts on BSDI, I use this type of setup ifconfig lo0 alias and then a arp -s blah blah blah Now from what I see in the freebsd list and such is that to set up the ip situation, I just need to do this in the rc.conf ifconfig_vx0_alias0="inet netmask 255.255.255.0" I note two major differences here, first the bsdi aliases the loopback where freebsd does a direct alias to the network device... also bsdi wants me to do an arp -s... Do I need the arp entry for freebsd? The answer to my question would be nice, but I am also very interested as to the "why" of the answer. Which method is best?

Well, I've just got NE2000 10Mbit cards: ed0 ISA ed1 PCI ed2 PCI And only the ed0 device in the kernel config file. I'd be interested to know if anyone has got a NE2000 10/100Mbit PCI card to work correctly in the 100Mbit mode, and what the speeds are like... Eddie.

PCI NE2000 cards seem to be OK. A couple of things...first, "SIMPLEX" above refers to whether the card/driver will see it's own packet transmissions and does not refer to the (half/full) duplex of the link. A collision rate of 10% is not very high and is not a problem. For half duplex circuits, packet acknowledges will collide with the traffic in the other direction, and depending on the timing, this can cause lots of collisions or relatively few. Even a collision rate of 100% (average of one collision for every packet sent) will only reduce your network throughput by perhaps 15%, so a collision rate of 10% is in the noise. The reason that the Pro/100B cards have more collisions is because the inter-packet spacing for transmitted packets is the minimum allowed for IEEE 802.3 and this doesn't leave much room for another transmitter to start talking without a collision. If you mix slow cards with fast ones, the effect is exaggerated. The bottom line is "Don't worry about it, it's not a problem". -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 13 14:06:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA09513 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 14:06:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from buffy.tpgi.com.au (buffy.tpgi.com.au [203.12.160.34]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA09508 for ; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 14:06:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from eirvine@tpgi.com.au) Received: (from smtpd@localhost) by buffy.tpgi.com.au (8.8.7/8.8.7) id JAA01645 for ; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 09:06:49 +1100 Received: from tar-ppp-179.tpgi.com.au(203.26.26.179), claiming to be "tpgi.com.au" via SMTP by buffy.tpgi.com.au, id smtpda01613; Sat Nov 14 09:06:37 1998 Message-ID: <364CAD7F.74A88934@tpgi.com.au> Date: Sat, 14 Nov 1998 09:06:55 +1100 From: Eddie Irvine X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.03 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: NE2000 card in 100Mbit mode.

Hello: I have written several fast ethernet PCI drivers for FreeBSD recently and have just started work on a driver for this chip (and the 3043 Rhine I, which I gather is register-compatible with the Rhine II). I only managed to get a sample NIC today, however I don't think it will take me too long to finish what I have. That said, if your driver is ready now, I wouldn't mind using it and saving myself some work. You can send the source code to wpaul@skynet.ctr.columbia.edu or wpaul@freebsd.org.

The patch is only for a file in the source tree. What I did was I applied the patch, using `patch' command and ran `make'. It looked like `make' removed my source tree, created a new one based on the .tar.gz file in the `distfiles' directory, and spent a couple of hours building the `old' port from scratch. Does `make' always unpack the `.tar.gz' file every time? Is there a way around this? Better yet, what is a correct way to build from a patched source tree? Thank you very much, Suttipan Limanond.

Linux and OS/2 can boot from a logical partition. DOS, WinBlows NT, and FreeBSD require one of the four primary partitions. Note that one primary partition is used when you first create a logical partition. IBMs Boot Manager (also available with Partition Magic) also uses a primary partition. Some other "boot manager" solutions may not require a partition at all. Here's a possibility: 1. Boot Manager 2. FreeBSD 2.2.7 3. FreeBSD 3.0R 4. Extended DOS partition for logical drives 1. Slackware Linux 2. Red Hat Linux 3. Debian Linux 4. Yag Linux (hey, I can't spell it) 5. Who knows Linux FreeBSD 2.2.7, I'm pretty sure even -stable, has problems with multiple FreeBSD partitions (second and subsequent FreeBSD partitions want to mount / from the first FreeBSD), but I believe 3.0R will handle it correctly (and this problem is possibly really just a Boot Easy bug). Note that you may be limited by any particular OS as to how many logical partitions you can have. Since DOS and WinBlows use the alphabet, you can only have 26 drive letters. You could have more logical partitions, but not be able to assign them a drive letter. Other OSes could have some such stupid restriction (but I've never seen a stupid programmer that wasn't a Microsuk only programmer!). Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes.

In my experience, the 3 card config will work *if* you put in a 'dummy' definition for ed1. For example, device ed0 /* all *your* ISA config stuff here */ device ed1 /* Nothing here! Dummy device! */ I haven't mixed ISA/PCI NE2000 cards on BSD before, but this appears correct from similar experience. The two PCI cards *should* get autoprobed as ed2 and ed3. 2. As someone pointed out earlier, there was no such NE2000 with 100Mbit capabilities. The original Novell Eagle series cards were 10Mbit/ISA. Consequently, unless there is a *special* driver offered by the manufacturer of *your* cards to run at 100Mbit, you are out of luck. Of course, in 100Mbit mode, we no longer have an NE-2000. -Chuck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 13 15:00:53 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA15982 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 15:00:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from iway1.iw.net (iway1.iw.net [204.157.148.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA15969 for ; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 15:00:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dragonknight@dtgnet.com) Received: from dragon (rap-dialup-23.dtgnet.com [216.16.6.23] (may be forged)) by iway1.iw.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id QAA02557; Fri, 13 Nov 1998 16:59:51 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <004801be0f59$2369e100$0100005a@dragon.dtgnet.com> From: "Dragon Knight" To: "Doug White" , "Steve" Cc: Subject: Re: 3.0 CD Images Date: Fri, 13 Nov 1998 15:58:29 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >On Thu, 13 Nov 1997, Steve wrote: > >> Okay..

As these cd Images are .img files i am not sure whether they use the same internal format or whatever it may be that would make them compatible/incompatible perhaps you can burn them with EZCD. I fear that it may not read the RockRidge extensions correctly and truncate the filenames to standard iso-9660 8.3 format. But i haven't tried it yet... Perhaps Gear or CDRWIN, which i hear are better than EZCD, will be able to do it, i do not know for sure. But what i plan on doing tonight or tomorrow is perform a net-install of version 3.0 (because i have an IDE CD-R) and making the CD using FreeBSD, because then I know it will work.

You can use the generic file if you want to, but if you want some of the additional anti-spam aren't in it. To do that you'll need to make your own .mc file and add the features to it. There's an in depth description of the features at http://www.sendmail.org/. Follow the anti-spam link.

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

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The second edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter: $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz The numbers after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Thanks to Stuart Henderson for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech Page 7 Install ports when installing the system mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very Page 9 Install ports when installing the system good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 175 ________ In the section Mounting file systems, replace the text down to and including the example with: Microsoft platforms identify partitions by letters which are assigned at boot time. There is no obvious relation between the partitions, and you have little control over the way the system assigns them. By contrast, all UNIX partitions have a specific relation to the root file system, which is called simply /. This flexibility has one problem: you have the choice of where in the overall file system structure you put your individual file systems. You specify the location with the mount command. For example, you would typically mount a CD- ROM in the directory /cdrom, but if you have three CD-ROM drives attached to your SCSI controller, you might prefer to mount them in the directories /cd0, /cd1, and /cd2. [1] In order to mount a file system, you need to specify the device to be mounted, where it is to be mounted, and the type of file system (unless it is ufs). The mount point, (the directory where it is to be mounted) must already exist. To mount your second CD-ROM on /cd1, you would enter: # mkdir /cd1 only if it doesn't exist # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd1a /cd1 Thanks to Christiane Yeardly for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph ____________________ [1] This numbering is in keeping with the UNIX tradition of numbering starting from 0. There's nothing to stop you choosing some other name, of course. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: Page 13 Starting the spooler xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: To do this, you could type in, on presto, $ rsh freebie xterm -ls -display presto:0 & The flag -ls tells xterm that this is a login shell, which causes it to read in the startup files. It might work without this flag, but there's a good chance that some environment variables, such as PATH, may not be set. In practice, the xterms menus in the window manager will perform this function for you when you select the appropriate menu item. Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia for drawing this to my attention. In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. Page 15 Starting the spooler o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 17 Starting the spooler www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find Page 19 Starting the spooler the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%. Page 1620 _________ The description of /etc/hosts.lpd erroneously refers to the file /etc/ftpusers. This should be /etc/hosts.lpd, of course. Thanks to Anders Andersson for drawing this to my attention.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, "The Complete FreeBSD", published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. Since going to press, a number of anomalies have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the first edition, formatted on 19 July 1996. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the second edition (16 December 1997), please check the parallel posting or get the file at ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2. I apply these changes to the current source of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me (grog@freebsd.org). --- Changes: 5 December 1996 --- Page 192: Middle of the page, the indented small print comment. Replace with: If your system doesn't have the directory /usr/src/sys, then the kernel source has not been installed. To install from the CD-ROM, perform the following steps: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/dists/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - The symbolic link /sys for /usr/src/sys is not strictly necessary, but it's a good idea: some software uses it, and otherwise you may end up with two different copies of the sources. --- Changes: 28 November 1996 --- Page 135, second paragraph: replace with In addition, you may need to create the device nodes if they don't already exist. By default, the system contains four virtual terminal devices in the /dev directory. If you use more than this number, you must create them, either with MAKEDEV (see page 162), or with mknod (see page 573). When calculating how many devices you need, note that if you intend to run X11, you need a terminal device without a getty for the X server. For example, if you have enabled /dev/ttyv3, /dev/ttyv4, and /dev/ttyv5, and you also want to run X, you will need a total of 7 virtual terminals (/dev/ttyv0 through /dev/ttyv6). With MAKEDEV, you specify how many virtual terminals you need: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV vty7 make 7 vtys Alternatively, you can do this with mknod: # cd /dev # ls -l ttyv0 crw------- 1 root wheel 12, 0 Nov 28 10:25 ttyv0 # mknod ttyv3 c 12 3 # mknod ttyv4 c 12 4 # mknod ttyv5 c 12 5 # mknod ttyv6 c 12 6 In this example, you list the entry for /dev/ttyv0 in order to check the major device number of the virtual terminals (that's the 12, in this example; it may change from one release to another). You need to specify this number to mknod. For more details about major and minor device numbers, see page 160. --- Changes: 20 November 1996 --- Figure 10-4, page 172: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s3a through /dev/sd1s3h as shown. Figure 10-6, page 176: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are *still* called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s1a through /dev/sd1s1h as shown. (Well, at least the average turned out right :-) The man page section (pages 225 to 766) was sorted by ASCII name of the man page, with the result that the man pages whose names start with upper-case letters come before those whose names start with lower-case letters. Sorry about that. If you're looking for a man page, probably the best place to start is in the Table of Contents on page vi. The man pages are really just excerpts. The total FreeBSD man pages format to some 6,000 pages, far more than I could possibly put in this book. --- Changes: 1 November 1996 --- Major changes: 1. No difference in installation from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. When "The Complete FreeBSD" was written, you still needed a separate installation procedure for installing from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. This is no longer the case. The following modifications to the text come as a result: Page 14, table: Remove references to atapiflp.bat and inst_ide.bat. FreeBSD 2.1.5 no longer has separate boot floppies and installation procedures for ATAPI CD-ROM drives. Page 29: Remove the text "You will also need a different boot disk (/cdrom/floppies/atapi.flp). If you are creating the boot floppy with MS-DOS, you can use the file ATAPIFLP.BAT to create the floppy." The resultant text reads: IDE CD-ROM drives, more properly called ATAPI CD-ROM drives, are a new kind of CD-ROM drive which connect to the same controller as your IDE hard disk. Currently, FreeBSD 2.1.5 support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives is in alpha test. In order to install from an ATAPI CD-ROM, the drive must be jumpered as slave device. The installation may or may not work--please let us know if it doesn't, especially if you can give us some indication about the cause of the trouble. You can also create this boot diskette with the aid of the VIEW program (see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 38). Page 35: Remove the points referring to atapi.flp. The text for the third box from the bottom of the page should read: If the direct boot doesn't work, you will need to make a boot floppy, which may be either a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" diskette. Create a boot floppy by copying the image /cdrom/boot.flp to diskette. Refer to Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD, page 39. If you have an IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drive, see also the section on this kind of drive in Chapter 2, Installation Concepts, page 29. Page 43, after first example: remove references to ATAPI. The resultant text should read: Don't try this from MS Windows--the installation will fail with the message not enough memory. The boot will progress in the same way as if you had booted from floppy. The advantage of starting VIEW is that you get more documentation: ultimately VIEW will start INSTALL to boot the system. INSTALL doesn't always work. It depends on what drivers or TSRs are in your system. There's no reason to try changing your MS-DOS configuration to get it to work: it's a lot easier just to boot from floppy (see page 38 for further information). 2. Changes to section on installing a second disk. Page 170: The bottom paragraph should read: When the message Three seconds until format begins... appears, you can still change your mind by hitting CTRL-C before the message Formatting... appears. After that, you can't stop the format: most disks can perform a format by themselves, so scsiformat just issues the command to format the disk. Since there is no SCSI bus activity, the disk activity lamp will also not light up, and since the scsiformat program will just be waiting and not using any CPU time, you could easily get the impression the nothing is going on. The disk format can take a long time--depending on the disk, up to 90 minutes. Page 173, after table 10-5: Add the text If you're unlucky, fdisk will give you a completely different idea of the disk geometry from what scsiformat did. Possibly you can decide by examination which program is wrong, or maybe you can look at the dmesg output for a tie-breaker. In all cases I have seen, it has been fdisk that returned the incorrect information, and only when the disk did not have a valid partition table. For example, this happened with a disk formatted for BSD/OS: # scsiformat sd1 MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48 Mode data length: 35 Medium type: 0 Device Specific Parameter: 0 Block descriptor length: 8 Density code: 0 Number of blocks: 2051615 Reserved: 0 Block length: 512 PS: 1 Reserved: 0 Page code: 4 Page length: 22 Number of Cylinders: 1760 Number of Heads: 15 Starting Cylinder-Write Precompensation: 0 Starting Cylinder-Reduced Write Current: 0 Drive Step Rate: 0 Landing Zone Cylinder: 0 Reserved: 0 RPL: 0 Rotational Offset: 0 Reserved: 0 Medium Rotation Rate: 5400 Reserved: 0 Reserved: 0 # fdisk sd1 ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 0 is: sysid 255,(BBT (Bad Blocks Table)) start 1023744, size 2108293151 (1029440 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 768/ sector 15/ head 147; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 255 The data for partition 1 is: sysid 101,(Novell Netware 3.xx) start 1646292846, size 1814062195 (885772 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 356/ sector 50/ head 0; end: cyl 256/ sector 50/ head 114 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 0,(unused) start 0, size 0 (0 Meg), flag 61 beg: cyl 364/ sector 37/ head 98; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0 The data for partition 3 is: Looking at the output from dmesg, we see: (aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors) sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760 cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track. What's less obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615 sectors. Unfortunately, if you calculate the number according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77 = 2,032,800. How come? The disks report the total number of sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use them all. The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the disk. Page 173, middle of page. Change the text after the "no magic" message to: The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple smoke. It refers to the fact that it didn't find the so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table. Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't surprising. It's also completely harmless. Page 173, last example. Remove the first 22 lines, from ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* to, but not including the next occurrence of this line. Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet * The total number of sectors in the partition. Calculate the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here. Page 178, middle of page: after # disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161 insert When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''. Since there isn't any label, it can't be found. This is another harmless chicken and egg problem. Page 182: In the section "Creating the file systems", add the first line to the example: # newfs /dev/rsd1h Further down the page, the last example should also read # newfs /dev/rsd1h 3. Other changes Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition". Add the text: It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition on the first disk. At the moment, it's not possible to install from extended partitions. Page 136, bottom: Add the text If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens). If you're running X, open another window and use su to become root. If you're running in character mode, select another virtual terminal and log in as root there. Only when you're sure you can still access root should you log out. Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual". Add: Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to build the cross-references. Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled. It should read: ze0 214 IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller zp0 214 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III Page 205: Change the section titled "lpt0" to: lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could conceivably have. Most people don't have three printers: you can comment out the definitions of the printers which you don't have.

It's alot easier to use the port and install it than installing the extensions alone. I've done it both ways and the port saved alot of time and headaches. If it is actually Apache 1.1.3 (not sure if it was a typo and you meant 1.3.1) that you're running, it'd be even a better choice because it'll upgrade Apache too.

If you install the bash2 port, you can use it as a restricted shell by starting it as `rbash'.

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've just installed 3.0-RELEASE (my first FreeBSD install, though I've been using SunOS, Solaris, Linux, and other Unix for several years). FreeBSD is on part of a Quantum Fireball ST, which is connected via a Buslogic BT-958 SCSI HBA. I know this drive has firmware bugs that make it unstable (command timeouts under Linux, CCB timeouts under FreeBSD) when run with a queue depth of larger than 7. Under Linux I add BusLogic=QD:[10,7] to the kernel command line. This limits the Queue depth of the fireball (target 1) to 7. I have yet to find a similar setting/command in FreeBSD. So, how do I do at least one of: disable tagged command queue globally disable tagged command queue for that drive limit queue depth to 7 I would greatly appreciate an answer, as I would like to give FreeBSD a real try, but I can't with SCSI timeouts under any sustained heavy write activity. -- Simon Karpen karpes@rpi.edu slk@acm.rpi.edu #include I don't speak for RPI in any way.

I know this is XFree86 specific, but I just know that you're the only ones that can get it right... Sorry if I bother some people with this. My monitor blew up, I won't have it for a week, and I got a spare here which is a old VGA (it seems). I say this because it is a 15-pin connector, and it is color. I wasn't able to configure it correctly under X, because I don't know anything about this monitor. Well, in fact I know that it is a 14" color monitor. Manufacturer: Aamazing (yes with 2 a's), model# CM-8428X. I managed to configure it as a standard SVGA, but I get a screen that is to narrow (? is that the word for "not wide"? sorry, I'm french-speaking :)), and too tall to fit on the screen. I haven't been able to fit it on the monitor, and this damn grandpa don't have anything to narrow or shorten the image... I don't know what I should do. Is there a way to find out what it really is?

Hard to see what would stop a binary download from working at the server end, especially from multiple servers, as long as the file has appropriate read permission. You don't say *what* went wrong, but, putting my Sherlock Holmes hat on, it would seem that you have not eliminated the obvious: namely that apart from the file, your ISP and machine are common in all cases. Try a different ISP and/or machine, and proceed deductively from there.

What does the tagged openings msg mean? I get them only if the scsi devices are getting more work to do. It doens't seem to matter how long the scsi timeout is set in the kernel. The Quantum disk is an UltraWide2 type, and so is the onboard scsi controller (Asus P2BS mainboard.) Can I alter scsi driver or kernel parameters to get rid of this timeout delay? Maybe it has something to do with the hd firmware like with some other Quantum disks. All works ok, but the bootup takes a long time.

Recently sendmail and a few other programs decided to start dying on me with sig 10's and 11's ... so I decided to upgrade. I did a fresh install (wiped out the old install first), and I wake up today to find that sendmail died again. This time, instead of rebooting, I want to find out what's going on. The machine is still in the state of being unable to start sendmail, so I can do all kinds of debugging and tracing, and will even give someone an account on my machine if they wanna poke around. But here's some information: 3.0-RELEASE ppro200, 80 MB ram, 6GB IDE stock sendmail 8.9.1 with .cf I generated from my own .mc file I ran a ktrace against the sendmail invocation but the dump is too large to post here, so I can make it available via ftp as ftp://poseidon.hamsterville.ultranet.com/ktrace.out (that's the binary dump; you'll want to run kdump against it) here's what I see in my messages log: Nov 14 11:11:26 poseidon sudo: ben : TTY=ttyp2 ; PWD=/usr/var/log ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/sbin/sendmail -bD -d0 -v Nov 14 11:11:26 poseidon sendmail[14234]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: cannot bind: Invalid argument Nov 14 11:11:26 poseidon sendmail[14234]: problem creating SMTP socket Nov 14 11:11:26 poseidon /kernel: pid 14234 (sendmail), uid 0: exited on signal 11 and here's what i get on the command line: Version 8.9.1 Compiled with: MAP_REGEX LOG MATCHGECOS MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7 NAMED_BIND NETINET NETUNIX NEWDB NIS QUEUE SCANF SMTP USERDB XDEBUG ============ SYSTEM IDENTITY (after readcf) ============ (short domain name) $w = poseidon (canonical domain name) $j = poseidon.hamsterville.ultranet.com (subdomain name) $m = hamsterville.ultranet.com (node name) $k = poseidon.hamsterville.ultranet. ======================================================== 451 opendaemonsocket: cannot bind: Invalid argument Segmentation fault Also of interest, I have no other problems (yet, at least) with any other programs on the machine.

Now, I can leave my sendmail down for a while, but I eventually need it back :) Not to mention that if any of you reply to the hamsterville address, I won't get the email until I either fix the issue or reboot. :) But since email conversation is likely to be needed, use goodwinb@ma.ultranet.com to get to me, and I set the reply-to as such. (you can never have too many email accounts) And I just found out that I can't send mail out from the FreeBSD box, either. Sigh.

I have two drives. The first is fully freebsd. ppp works fine when I booted from this drive. My second drive, which has a DOS partition, and then a freebsd partition, boots fine, and everything appears to be working. Expect for some resone it refuses to alk to the ppp interface. This is only when booting from this drive, (dev/wd1s2). I cannot eliminate the dos partition on this drive because this is my install partition. I need the first hard drive to install win95 on (apps I need to run), so freebsd must run from the second drive. I'm truly afraid to reformat my first drive simply for the purpose of testing whether ppp will magically work if dev/wd1s1 is my root partition. All I truly want is two drives with one os each? And right now it seems neither will work unless it's on what dos would call c:. Any help is GREATLY appreciated. -- "There were some sensible, rational, and intelligent things to say.

Somebody on your network has systems with the same IP address.

It means that two NICs are reporting the same IP address. Sometimes this is hard to track done. I was running a local DNS server. I ran nslint over the zone files and found the problem.

If you're looking for fault-tolerance across drives, there is default support for DPT SCSI RAID controllers in 2.2.7R. I believe it was first added in 2.2.6.

Without any fancy filtering or anything, you should still be at least able to print basic text. What command are you using to print it? "lpr" ? And if so, if you run "lpq", does it show a print job in your queue? I think your problem is probably with your printcap file, so if you can show me what that looks like, it'll be helpful.

Oh, please. And the day after I ate a pastrami sandwich on rye with mustard my wife got pregnant. Just because two things are true, you can't conclude that one caused the other. Maybe there were exploits against sshd a year ago, but unless you have more evidence than you've stated above, you shouldn't be suggesting to people that your root incursion was allowed by ssh. Vague suspicions based on no evidence should be kept to oneself. As for the rootshell.com thing, the following two things are known: 1. www.rootshell.com was cracked, and the cracker gained access through ssh. 2. There are possible buffer overflows in the Kerberos code in ssh. Nobody has shown that he can exploit these overflows to gain root access, and in any case it would be very difficult to do, if it's even possible at all. >From the above two pieces of data, many people have concluded that rootshell was compromised through an exploit against the Kerberos code in ssh. This may be true, but the conclusion can not be drawn from the above, which seems to be all that is publically known. Another plausible explanation is that the cracker knew the root password and simply logged in via ssh. "Gained access via ssh" is not the same thing as "gained access by exploiting a buffer overflow in ssh." The rootshell people themselves have never said that the break-in was caused by an ssh security hole. I'm not defending ssh; for all I know it's a seething mass of exploitable buffer overflows. But people have been drawing all kinds of unfounded conclusions about it out of thin air, and I wish that people would stop spreading this misinformation as if they knew what they were talking about.

I just installed a scsi cdrom but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to want to function propperly.

I know I don't have any ID conflicts and the chain is propperly terminated (this is actually the first device in a chain of three.) My question is first: Why the heck does the kernel care about the size of the cdrom on boot? That seems more like something that mount_cd9660 would want to figure out. Second.. As a result of this, when I go to mount either /dev/cd0a or /dev/cd0c, I get "device not configured" as a result of the above error message.. anyone have any words of advice? -Wayne To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 14 17:10:56 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA05508 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 17:10:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from oz.phear.net (slwag1p09.ozemail.com.au [203.108.157.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA05503 for ; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 17:10:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jim@phrantic.phear.net) Received: from localhost (jim@localhost) by oz.phear.net (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id MAA00628; Sun, 15 Nov 1998 12:09:56 +1100 (EST) Date: Sun, 15 Nov 1998 12:09:49 +1100 (EST) From: Jim Mock To: Aleksandar Obradovic cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Where did ppp 2 go?

But it was at SGI if that rings any bells. In that SGI article it was suggested that as much as a 200% collision rate should not cause worry. It was pointed out an early collision happens in the first 64 octets, so a backoff and retry doesn't cost much bandwidth. Late collisions are after this 64 octet window and are a bad thing suggesting a collision with another host too far down the wire. That's a real eye opener when one starts worrying about the length of wire over which the speed of light isn't fast enough (I know about velocity factors, typically 60% but possibly 80% in some coaxial cables, so Big Fat Hairy Deal, its only 60% of C). One other thing SGI mentioned is that different ethernet hardware used in various SGI system report collisions differently. I've noticed my 3com card at work (forgot model, uses the vx driver) almost never reports a collision. OTOH the 8-port hub its plugged into may have its collision light on solid. -- 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 believe this message stems from the line: options "CD9660" in your kernel config file. This option tries to mount a CDROM at boot time. Thus, if you don't have a CD in the drive... My drives work well so I've never researched the conditions on the "size" statement. However, you should have a similar line in /etc/fstab: /dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 which allows for: % mount /mnt/cdrom assuming you are root or have configured another user for appropriate group access. -chuck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 14 18:35:53 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA10799 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 18:35:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from awfulhak.org (awfulhak.force9.co.uk [195.166.136.63]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA10791 for ; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 18:35:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from woof.lan.awfulhak.org (woof.lan.Awfulhak.org [172.16.0.7]) by awfulhak.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA24041; Sun, 15 Nov 1998 02:27:17 GMT (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from woof.lan.awfulhak.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by woof.lan.awfulhak.org (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id CAA01268; Sun, 15 Nov 1998 02:29:04 GMT (envelope-from brian@woof.lan.awfulhak.org) Message-Id: <199811150229.CAA01268@woof.lan.awfulhak.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: "Dan Mahoney Jr." cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Unresponsive TUN/PPP In-reply-to: Your message of "Sat, 14 Nov 1998 12:14:07 CST."

Thus, if you don't have a CD in the drive... > My drives work well so I've never researched the conditions on > the "size" statement. Actually, this allows for the ISO 9660 file system format (the most common cdrom layout). As with NFS or MSDOSFS, it is necessary if you wish to have your kernel support cdroms. At boot time, unless something is really screwy with FreeBSD, the kernel only knows about the root file system and its swap partition. I should not attempt to touch any other device as a file system until it hits multiuser mode and the startup script specificaly call /sbin/mount. I know that some devices (notably zip drives) won't want to initialize propperly if there is no medium present but it doesn't prevent operation, you should just get extraneous error messages at boot time. In my case, I inserted a CD which I know has a functioning 9660 file system present and I still got the errors. However, not being a bonafied kernel hacker, I am not certain I can figure this out by digging through the source code. > However, you should have a similar line in /etc/fstab: > > /dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 > > which allows for: > > % mount /mnt/cdrom This merely allows for the short form of mount (instead of something along the lines of "mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd0a /cdrom" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 14 19:55:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA16533 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 19:55:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from sdcc10.ucsd.edu (sdcc10.ucsd.edu [132.239.50.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA16527 for ; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 19:55:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from crouilla@ucsd.edu) Received: from localhost (crouilla@localhost) by sdcc10.ucsd.edu (8.8.3/8.8.3) with SMTP id TAA01665; Sat, 14 Nov 1998 19:54:33 -0800 (PST) X-Authentication-Warning: sdcc10.ucsd.edu: crouilla owned process doing -bs Date: Sat, 14 Nov 1998 19:54:33 -0800 (PST) From: Chuck Rouillard Reply-To: chuck@ucsd.edu To: Aaron Parmelee cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: set up printing In-Reply-To: <3.0.5.32.19981114213553.008f3d60@net66.com> 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 [chop] > to test (unsuccessfully) i use: > > lptest > /dev/lpt1 > > when i type lpq: > > warning no printer daemon present (bad news, i think) > > 1st root0 (standard input) 13308 bytes > > thats what i have so far.

FreeBSD starts numbering ports from 0, so lpt0 = LPT1, lpt1 = LPT2, etc. 4) The most important one: the "if" field should contain the command for a filter, if any, not the line printer daemon (lpd) itself. Incidentally, you also are missing an "equals" sign between "if" and "/var/log". But even that notwithstanding, you don't want to call lpd from printcap. lpd must already be running. In turn, this "master" lpd launches a new lpd for each print job, which then terminates when the job is finished. However, a master copy must be running. For now, you should just delete the "if" field in your printcap. Then, to get your master copy going now, just type "lpd" at the prompt (as root, of course). Then, to get it to be running when you boot your machine up, find this line in your /etc/rc.conf file: lpd_enable="" Or it may read: lpd_enable="NO" In either case, change it to read: lpd_enable="YES" > when i type lpq: > > warning no printer daemon present (bad news, i think) Yes, bad news -- as I said above, it's because your lpd isn't running. > 1st root0 (standard input) 13308 bytes Yup, that's the print job sitting in your queue. You should probably delete it before running lpd -- to do so, just type "lprm -" to clear out the queue. Once you have lpd running, then try printing something using the command "lpr filename", using a simple file like your .login -- "lpr .login". > say, how do you rename your computer? i'm tired of seeing "myname" everywhere. You mean change the hostname? That's in /etc/rc.conf as well, on a line that starts with "hostname=". Fill in the appropriate value there.

Sorry. I omitted that point in my original post. The user had something like: ifconfig_ed1="inet 192.168.0.98 netmask 255.255.255.0" in /etc/rc.conf. But until the above mentioned step was done manually, ifconfig -a did not show an IP address. I admit my details are sketchy. I was helping someone on IRC and I probably do not have all the details. I also seem to recall being told that an ifconfig had to be done once, manually, to initialise things.

No. When the box is booted, "ifconfig ed1 inet 192.168.0.98 netmask 255.255.255.0" is run from /etc/rc.network (given the line from /etc/rc.conf you provided above), exactly as if you'd run it manually from a shell prompt. Is the interface really ed1? I notice the command line you gave above is for ed0. This would explain ed0 not being configured when the box is booted up.
