What is a good MOTHERBOARD ? ( FreeBSD 4.6-RC2 / Raid 1 )

2003-10-25 Thread Ethan Akins
URGENT!!

I am on an emergency search to purchase a new motherboard / CPU that will 
run with [ Version: Freebsd 4.6-RC2 / RAID 1 configuration ].

What motherboard are you currently using that has ZERO problems while using 
Raid 1? Also, if you can link me to the site in which you purchased it from 
I am ready to buy one right now.

Thank you in advance...

Ethan

P.S.  -- I have just purchased a brand new A7V333 a few weeks back and the 
Raid 1 mirror will not last more than 24 hours so I must find an alternate 
board / cpu immediately! Yes, I have tried several modifications but mirror 
continues to remove itself from the configuration.

I have used FreeBSd before which installs only on a primary

Sorry - 3 ways,

1. /stand/sysinstall - and Configure/Packages and install them from the 
FreeBSD site.

2. pkg_add package name

3.  2. Update your ports tree, update the ports database, install portupgrade,
upgrade the installed ports (such as KDE) with portupgrade

Yep.  Me again.  Sorry. :)  Did you ever find a solution to this (see below my name)

Vinum now reminds you every time you enter a command if configuration
updates are disabled.  

The trouble with recommending this sort of thing is that it has no
relevance, and it'll go down in folklore as a solution to all kinds of
problems, when in fact it has a very limited scope and wouldn't have
helped here.

Hard Drive Issues

2003-10-25 Thread Justin Gruenberg
I've been having a bit of an issue with my 120gb Maxtor hard drive under
FreeBSD.  As of right now, the disk is set up with one NTFS partition,
but I'm not sure if thats relevant.  BIOS reports the correct geometry
and size, and Windows also reports the correct size.  The disk is ad1.

If do a dmesg, I get these messages relating to the drive:

ad1: 2014MB  [4092/16/63] at ata0-slave UDMA100
ad1s3: slice extends beyond end of disk: truncating from 240091425 to
4108671 sectors
ad1s5: slice extends beyond end of disk: truncating from 167782797 to
4108608 sectors

Steps I've already tried (in no particular order):
1.  A friend said that I could disable the drive in BIOS, and FreeBSD
would query the controller, and get the info from there.  I did disable
it, but I got the same results.
2.  Checked in Windows XP is the disk is set to a "dynamic disk."  I
understand they are not compatible with any operating system besides
XP.  The disk is listed as "Basic"
3.  I've tried taking the geometry from BIOS and manually putting it in
from fdisk in sysinstall.  With the values copied verbatim, fdisk says
that they are incorrect, and will not use them.  I have also used the
geometry published by Maxtor.  Those numbers work, but the hard drive is
only around 8gb.
4.  I was advised on IRC to try switching the drive from its position at
primary slave, to somewhere else.  I changed it to secondary slave, and
had the same results.

The Values that BIOS gives:
58853 cyls
16 heads
255 sectors

Values from Maxtor
(http://maxtor.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/maxtor.cfg/php/enduser/olh_adp.php?p_faqid=596)
16383 max cyls (238216 actual)
16 heads
63 sectors

The Values that BSD reports (from fdisk):
256 cyls
255 heads
63 sectors

Thanks a lot.

Correct, I'm not.
I can't get 'homeunix.net' as a domain using WebHop.

There's no possibility that I've hosed anything like /etc/hosts.allow or
one of the files that restricts connections?

Yes, the router has a web interface for configuration.  It had been set
to forward requests on port 80 to the webserver on port 80.  That was
working perfectly for over a year.  I've now set it to port 8080, in and
out, which is, of course, working.  I have also enabled the DMZ, which,
AFAIK, places the server outside the firewall, thereby eliminating
it...?

Now I've told apache to listen on port 80, no joy.  Change back to 8080,
perfect!

> It certainly is perplexing.

It is, isn't it?

Dyndns support just answered my last post to them, and basically just
explained what DNS does as a way of denying that they are at fault, and
I believe them.  To quote them, "DNS is just like the Yellow Pages.
Your phone book doesn't know you are going through it, calling every
number, and subsequently start deleting entries."

Hi Marwan,

  I have FreeBSD 4.8-R, I installed postfix latest from /ports.
  The problem is this box has no domain, its just an fakeip 192.168.*
No problem with that. Don't forget to specify proxy_interfaces if this

Please check your inet_interfaces setting:

inet_interfaces = localhost

might be what you need.

If you need more help, please post the output of `postconf -n`.

Re: Custom FreeBSD boot floppy??

Hi.
Go to http://people.freebsd.org/~picobsd/picobsd.html and download the
BootFORTH demo
(floppy image)
(Direct link: http://www.freebsd.org/~picobsd/bootldr.bin )


Copy it to a floppy (using dd(1)) and you have a boot floppy that you
can mount (it has a ufs filesystem) and customize.
You can also create a bootable floppy manually by following the
instructions in The Handbook, but the picobsd floppy image is a great
starting point for this kind of thing.

Postfix as localhost

2003-10-25 Thread Dead Line


Hello everybody,

  I have FreeBSD 4.8-R, I installed postfix latest from /ports.
  The problem is this box has no domain, its just an fakeip 192.168.*
  Now, after I installed postfix and disabled sendmail, my openwebmail 
client start to say
  Unable to connect to SMTP server:25

  I tried the configuration in /postfix/main.cf   to ip 192.168.0.2 or ip 
127.0.0.1 or localhost
  but all fail in my box and nothing works as SMTP!

deadline - send message error - couldn't open SMTP server 
192.168.0.2:25
deadline - send message error - couldn't open SMTP server 127.0.0.1:25
deadline - send message error - couldn't open SMTP server localhost:25

 Also when i try to telnet to my smtp seems no response and i dunt get a 
postfix welcome msg!

192# telnet localhost smtp
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.q8online.com
Escape character is '^]'.
and it doesnot response to commands here!

 In the same time, postfix reload or check, reads no problem.

 Seems postfix cannot read a IP number as smtp server/port.
 anyone kindly has a solution for this?
 Thank you too much
 Marwan Sultan.

gnome-vfs supports an NFS VFS, but it is not enabled by default, and I'm
not sure it even works.

Hmmm... It's not the basic "look up the IP number" part as that's
working just fine.  You don't seem to be using their (dynDNS) web
redirection service (ie. howse.homeunix.net resolves to 66.168.145.25
which whois reports belongs to Charter Communications).

I think that dynDNS would seem to have managed to pull off their
datacenter move without much noticable fallout.  That's pretty
impressive...

If Charter are denying any interference with the port 80 traffic at
all, then they are almost certainly correct.

I think you've established that your FreeBSD box is working correctly.

So, I guess, by a process of elimination you might have a problem with
your cable router/modem?  Is this a device that has a HTTP interface
that you can configure it with? -- since it seems to be working
perfectly well for all of the other ports, there must be some reason
for it to do nasty things specifically to the port 80 stuff.

It certainly is perplexing.

Cheers,

Matthew

1. Copying files from a floppy disk:
  a) mount the floppy (bad floppy might cause a kernel panic!)
 mkdir /floppy (if it does not yet exists)
 mount -t msdos /dev/fd0.1440 /floppy
 Now you can copy the files as usual (cp).
 
 You can also put the following line into your /etc/fstab and use
 mount /floppy to mount your floppy
 
/dev/fd0.1440 /floppy msdos rw,noauto,nosuid 0 0

  b) use the mtools port: ports/emulators/mtools
 Be sure you have this line in your /usr/local/etc/mtools.conf
 drive a: file="/dev/fd0"
 
 Now you can use mdir, mcopy, etc. just like on MSDOS
 
2. Extracting rar archives: Use the ports/archivers/unrar port

 Simon

ARGGHHH!!
Are you talking about my ISP (Charter Communications) or my Dynamic DNS
service (DYNdns.org)?

I have just spoken to Charter Tech Support for the second time about
this, and the tech assured me that they were not 'affecting' port 80 in
any way, nor were they using anything similar to portsentry.

It seems more likely to me that the culprit is DYNdns.org, since I have
only been using them since about the 11th of this month, and *also* they
have just completed a major task - moving their datacenter.

Assuming you planing your modum to build up the connection (i.e. you
turn it on and you have a internet connection.), then it doesn't matter
if FreeBSD support it or not. What you looking for is a modum that has a
IP connection for your intranet and a connetion for your intranet (line
input).

I have the cheap ALCATEL which could be converted to the more expencive
version. I started out calling in with a PPTP client, but switch because
the line kept dropped. Then I let the modum have the public IP,
turned on nat on the modum and let it build up the connection. Recently
I switch this off nat (because of slot limitations) and used a routing
option istead. My gateway doesn't have a clue about how to build up the
connection it just uses it and it talk normal IP protocol, not PPTP.

What you are looking for in a ADSL modum is: (in short)
- line in connection to the internet
- IP connection to your intranet (local LAN)
- Ability to build the connection it self (inclinding convertion PPP to
  PPTP or any other protocol that requered)
- Abilty to route packets though
- Its not a must, but it would be nice to have a nat option on it, just
  as a backup.

P.S. Please cut unrelated text out!!

Custom FreeBSD boot floppy??

2003-10-25 Thread yo _
Hi Everyone!

The MBR on my hard disk is corrupted (or sometimes is), after re-installing 
FreeBSD it was not overwritten and fixed even though the complete system 
was. So when i need to boot i use the bootcds i used to install FreeBSD and 
at boot0 i press any key (during rapid / - \ - spinnings) and boot my hard 
drive using the command "0:ad(a,0)/boot/loader". When there is a power 
failure, it requires me to go back to the system and repeat the process.

How could i make a custom boot floppy (or even boot cd) to load 
"0:ad(a,0)/boot/loader" automatically, since the MBR never gets repaired 
(however many times i've tried). If this information is already documented 
somewhere, a point in the right direction will be more than sufficient, even 
if the information is about MBR repair and installation of the FreeBSD boot 
loader.

I am using 4.8-RELEASE, thanks to all in advance!

Thanks for that, Roman, I did so and got some sort of binary to play with.
For a port, however, I think I must 
dig in deeper, or rather climb higher for that matter -- autoconf & co. are
used for making the makefiles, so I 
probably must fix it there somewhere there. If it was for plain makefiles, I
might not have the problems I see, 
but this is something entirely new for me ;-)

Thanks, Dan, I'm not that far yet. As I said above, I'm still trying to
understand what is required by nvtv in 
the first place. There still seem to be bugs in there, at least with my
card. I have contact with the author who 
is willing to help as long as I can build and test. Which I sort of achieved
now with your help and the of a 
friend. Anyways, as I must have overread that comment in bsd.ports.mk,
thanks for the pointer. 
 
In any case, if it makes to be a port, I'll proceed as suggested. 
 
So, thanks for the help and watch ports@ if it ever makes it there ;-)==) 
 
All the best, 
 
Peter. 
 
Btw, iopl() and ioperm() I currently simply get around by uncommenting them.
Which probably makes those 
sections unuseable for the cards covered there, so I would not mind a hint
for these by any other reader ;-)

Installing 5.1 on laptop causes CD-ROM to hang

2003-10-25 Thread Brian Dessent

Hi, I'm trying to install FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE on an older IBM thinkpad
770 laptop.  This is a Pentium-233 MHz vintage model, with 256MB RAM.  I
chose 5.1 because I have a Cardbus 3com 575 Ethernet apaptor and it
looks like there's no support for Cardbus at all in -stable.

So I boot the laptop from the 5.1-RELEASE mini CD-ROM, and a buch of
messages scroll by.  Before I can read them I'm in the blue sysinstall
screen, so I have no way of really reading what the kernel said.  I was
able to catch more than a few "unable to map IRQ" lines or something
like that.

Anyway, my Ethernet card is not activated, so I can't use it to
install.  If I choose to install from the CDROM all goes fine and it
says it's copying the base files into /.  But somewhere in the middle of
this process the CDROM will just "hang."  The activity LED goes on solid
and the installer program just times out trying to read any more from
the disk.  After a while it pops up an error about "Unable to read, do I
want to retry?"  But it really doesn't matter what I do at this point,
it seems the CDROM interface is totally borked until I reset the system.

So, it's apparent to me that there's probably some kernel settings that
I need to mess with.  Either I need to get the Ethernet card recognised,
or I need to figure out why this CDROM just hangs all of a sudden.  I
have tried re-burning the CD-R at a slower speed, this had no effect. 
I'm pretty sure that the CDROM is fine, as I've installed other
operating systems without any problem.

I've read the FreeBSD handbook, but it talks about this whole kernel
config process that I never see.  There's one line in there about how
this is deprecated in -current in favor of the "device.hints" method. 
However, the documentation on how to use this method is non-existant. 
What exactly am I supposed to set?  I've looked at the manpage of the xl
driver that this card uses, and it says nothing about hints.  I managed
to get into the loader command line interface, but I have no idea what
commands I need to use or options I need to set.  And I can't read the
boot messages because they scroll off the screen.  In linux I would just
use ctrl-alt-Fn and switch to a different virtual terminal and then use
shift-pageup to read the messages, but I haven't found a way to do this
in FreeBSD.

Any ideas?

I am having this problem in a new install of 4.8. One, a us robotics
courier v everything (56k), will dial out, talk to my isp but never
settle on a connection; it just emits a steady tone. The second, a
hayes
accura 288 v.34+FAX, works fine. Both of these modems work fine on a
slackware 9.1 box. The courier exhibits the same behavior with 4.7.
I
don't want to pull down ports at 28.8kb so I'd like to get the
courier
working. Is this an init string thing? I haven't touched anything in
ppp.conf except the obvious three (and cuaa0), and resolv.conf is
correct, after all, the hayes works. I'd appreciate any pointers
here
before I start mucking around with the configs.

That's good in one way: it means that your system is actually working
perfectly well.  Unfortunately it also implies that the problem is
actually somewhere in the network downstream of you.  Since it seems
to affect all external users equally, the problem must be within your
service provider's network.  The only thing you can do is open a
ticket with your support and pray that it gets looked at by someone
with a clue.

The on/off behaviour often means that you're interacting with a dual
server system, which is possibly meant to provide redundancy, but one
of the servers isn't working correctly and the load balance isn't
cutting out the duff machine.

How to see subnet page

2003-10-25 Thread Wayne M Barnes
Dear FreeBSD,

I have a private (192...)  subnet on a separate ethernet card.

From anwwhere, I want to view a web page being put out by 192.169.0.22
of my subnet.  I can (only) view it when I am at my console, but
I want to view it from home, for instance.

What lines in /etc/rc.firewall would accomplish this?
I was thinking I might come into my public IP address:8080, and
have web requests to 8080 be [diverted, forwarded, shunted, passed] to
the web server on 192.169.0.22.

I can't seem to satisfy ipfw syntax for this; nor can
I fathom the man page for ipfw.

I would appreciate a sample rc.firewall, if anyone knows this
situation.

Thank you,

Crash in gui

2003-10-25 Thread jason dictos
Hi All,

   Today my machine has locked up twice within the span of an hour, and both 
times it locked up when I clicked on a link in Gaim. The lock is hard, and 
there's no message in /var/log/messages that I can see, so my question is how 
can I debug such a problem? Where even the caps lock button no longer 
reponds?

I'm using 5.1 + all security patches

Or passing the date in an environment variable.
I think something like

 datestamp=`date +%F`
 find $FILES_DIR -xdev -type f -iname '*.bak' -print0 | \
 tar --remove-files --null -T - \
 -cvzpf $TAR_DIR/bak_files_${datestamp}.tar.gz

should work.

This is discussed regularly on a variety of FreeBSD lists.  You can
search the list archives if you want.

One particularly easy solution is to use NFS.  You may not want to let
the clients mount it R/W, though.

cvsup allows you to specify a date, and it will retrieve the files
that were current on that date.  [supfile syntax is 
date=[cc]yy.mm.dd.hh.mm.ss
according to the manual]

For a single port, it might be easier to use the web interface.

Boot Problem

2003-10-25 Thread Kris Davidson
This may be a complete newbie question, or it may have been answered 
before but I would appreciate any help or input that can be provided.

I have a Sony VAIO PCG-GRZ615M laptop which I'm trying to install 
FreeBSD on. I boot from the CD and then try selecting each one of the 7 
boot options however each option I pick returns the below and then the 
system reboots, as such I can not start the installation.

Can't get the faster of two modems to work with 4.8

2003-10-25 Thread rloef
I am having this problem in a new install of 4.8. One, a us robotics
courier v everything (56k), will dial out, talk to my isp but never
settle on a connection; it just emits a steady tone. The second, a hayes
accura 288 v.34+FAX, works fine. Both of these modems work fine on a
slackware 9.1 box. The courier exhibits the same behavior with 4.7. I
don't want to pull down ports at 28.8kb so I'd like to get the courier
working. Is this an init string thing? I haven't touched anything in
ppp.conf except the obvious three (and cuaa0), and resolv.conf is
correct, after all, the hayes works. I'd appreciate any pointers here
before I start mucking around with the configs.

thanks,

The best thing to do is take some time to learn enough about IP routing to
understand what's going on and decide whether or not your setup is correct

bochs running -stable

2003-10-25 Thread Nimrod Mesika
I'm trying to run -stable under bochs 2.02 so that I could play a
little with the kernel.

I have a separate 'development' -stable partition. I haven't made
any modifications to the system yet -- just tested that the
partition is bootable and everything works fine.

However, when trying to boot the same partition under bochs I get a
BTX error when /boot/loader is loaded.

(I get similar error when I try to load the kernel directly. Boot2
seems to be working fine, though - I can list the files in the root
partition).

Any ideas? (the kernel is compiled for I586)

I have a working freebsd-4.7 image downloaded from bochs.sf.net. It
works with the same .bochsrc file so I suspect this is a kernel
configuration issue (or maybe using a dedicated partition wasn't a
good idea?)

It turns out that FreeBSD cannot assign an IRQ to my USB controller(s):

# dmesg | grep uhci
uhci0:  port 0xe000-0xe01f irq 11 at device 16.0 on pci0
uhci0: Could not allocate irq

uhci1:  port 0xe800-0xe81f irq 11 at device 16.2 on pci0
uhci1: Could not allocate irq
device_probe_and_attach: uhci1 attach returned 6

Under Linux 2.4.22 on the same box, IRQ 10 is shared between my WinTV PVR card and a 
USB UHCI at I/O 0xe000; and IRQ 11 is shared between my GeForce 2 card, PCI modem, and 
a USB UHCI at I/O 0xe400 - with no conflicts, as far as I can tell.

Is there any way I can coax FreeBSD into letting these devices share IRQs 10 and 11?

compile automounter with LDAP support

2003-10-25 Thread Antoine Jacoutot
Hi :) 
  
I sent the following message to the list some time ago but got no answer. 
I sending it again in case someone could help me on this. 
Basically, I would like to recompile adm, shipped with the base system, with 
LDAP support (after installing the openldap port). 
 
 
What I did is add the following line in /usr/src/usr.sbin/amd/amd/Makefile : 
SRCS+=  info_ldap.c 
  
Unfortunately id does not work :( 
I did the following: 
  
$ cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/amd 
$ make clean && make depend && make 
  
I then get the following error: 
  
 /usr/src/contrib/amd/amd/info_ldap.c:403: `LDAP_SUCCESS' undeclared  
 (first use in this function) 
 /usr/src/contrib/amd/amd/info_ldap.c:410: `LDAP_NO_SUCH_OBJECT'

 *** Error code 1 
  
 Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin/amd/amd. 
 *** Error code 1 
  
 Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin/amd. 
  
I don't really know what to do, I guess ldap libraries aren't found or  
something, although I do have OpenLDAP installed and working (as a samba PDC 
and Unix users authentication system). 
 
Thanks in advance for your ideas...

Yes -- the Windows SSH clients generally use the SSH2 key format from
the commercial SSH corp. ssh program.  The key files are stored in a
different format to OpenSSH, but the keys themselves are compatible
over the wire when connecting between different SSH variants.

You can convert keys from commercial SSH programs to OpenSSH format
using ssh-keygen(1) with the '-i' flag, or as Frank says, some of the
Windows clients will accept OpenSSH format key files.

Cheers,

Matthew

Yes, I noted that in my other message in this thread.  However, all
previously discussed variations (in this thread) on this command have
the same problem.

On FreeBSD the maximum possible argument list is long enough for most
purposes.  Unless the OP is going to be dealing with a great number of
files to back up then the commands as stated will work fine.

> Thanks for the response, but what would be a better solution?

There are several possibilities, all of which equate to passing the
list of files to backup to the tar command (or equivalent) via stdin
rather than the command line.  Perhaps the simplest is to use the '-I'
or '-T' flag to tar(1):

find $FILES_DIR -xdev -type f -iname '*.bak' -print0 | \
tar --remove-files --null -T - \
-cvzpf $TAR_DIR/bak_files_`date +%F`.tar.gz

Other possibilities would include using cpio(1), which can be
persuaded to emit tar format archives, or to build a perl backup
script based around the File::Find and Archive::Tar modules.

Cheers,

Matthew
