Re: New FreeBSD Installation
Hi, and thanks in advance for any help provided. I am trying to install FreeBSD 4.10 on a new, clean ProLiant DL380 g3. It has four 72.8 GB drives, and currently set up as a RAID5 by it's Smart Array 5i boot controller. How about installing via ftp ? thats what I have used in the past when I didnt have a working CDROM I want to start by making this as simple as possible, so only one operating system (BSD). Some specs: ProLiant DL 380 G3 Intel Xeon @ 3.06 Ghz NC7781 Gigabit Server Adapter IDE CD-ROM 1 : DW-224E I have created both the kern.flp and the mfsroot.flp diskettes, and progressed through the initial installation. The first problem I have encountered is being unable to initialize the media from my ISO diskette. I get the following error message: Error mounting /dev/acd0 on dist: Input/output error (5) 100% This is surprising, since on the Hardware Probe results, I have: acd0: CDROM DW-224E at ata0-master using PIO4 Now I have read that an older issue was that the CD-ROM drives needed to be set as slave to the hard drive controller in order to work properly, but thought this was an older issue, and taken care of. (?) Yet, when I do a Standard Installation, Use the Entire Disk (setting as Bootable), Install a Standard MBR (no boot manager), use Auto Defaults for the Disk partitioning, Attempt a User installation (to keep it basic), and accept the FreeBSD ports collection suggestion, then choose my Installation Media type as CD/DVD (and will be using the 4.10 Disc 1 ISO), the Error mounting... etc comes up. I do not believe it is the CD-ROM drive itself - there are several disks that I have tested and ran upon it (the ProlLiant's SmarStart, for example). Has anyone encountered this problem? I have read at several areas that it might be an issue with the RAID controller (?) Thanks again for any advice, and have a great holiday weekend!

Re: local mail delivery
Fetchmail retrieves mail from remote mail servers and forwards it via SMTP, so it can then be read by normal mail user agents such as mutt, elm(1) or BSD Mail. It allows all your system MTA's filtering, forwarding, and aliasing facilities to work just as they would on normal mail. in short: it is fetched and inserted into your mta taken from http://www.catb.org/~esr/fetchmail/ greetings ruediger mikko wrote: Hi, I am wondering how should I setup a server.

I do not understand how the mail travels: I make a ssh connection to start imapd on the target mail-host with fetchmail, to get the mail, but to whom program does fetchmail give it to? sendmail?

However, you can configure it to pass the mail directly to procmail(1) or some other local delivery agent if you know that all the incoming mail is addressed to just one account. Since you don't want to use procmail(8), probably that would have to be the default delivery agent: mail.local(8) Since you're using spamd, you need some way of feeding the mail to it for scanning. That's generally done via procmail rules, but you can use a sendmail milter instead -- see the mail/spamass-milter port for example.

Re: Hot Swap hardware on FreeBSD?
what about buying an external raid-box? then you dont have to care about these questions ;) the external box is doing raid 5 with hot standby disk and is connected to the system via scsi and looks like one big drive. the box itself is full of hot-swappable ide drives and the system does not notice, if something goes wrong, because the box handles these things on its own. greetings ruediger Stephen P.

250GB hd: Can FreeBSD use 137GB (bios) as Linux or Windows do?
Yesterday, I wrote about CANNOT READ BLK from my new hd that I filled via firewire: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2008-July/179646.html The response suggested to check for faulty hardware, which I am still trying to do. I found FreeBSD reporting the drive to have 128GB instead of 232GB as FreeBSD did when the drive was connected via firewire. Searching the web, I found one reference of someone else having problems with 128/137GB using the same (latest) bios on this five year old (Centrino) laptop (Acer TM800). From Western Digital, I got Lifeguard, which installed ddo (dynamic drive overlay). With ddo, FreeBSD can access the full drive. Unfortunately, I need to dual boot Windows XP, which seems to be impossible with the ddo MBR. Anyhow, both Linux (Knoppix, 2.6.24) and Windows XP (SP3) can access the whole drive without ddo. With Linux, I checked that I can indeed write and read high sectors. Thus, it is only the bios, not the controller that is limiting lba48 access. (At least with the geometry the disk reports.) Is there any way to have FreeBSD access the whole drive without ddo, too? If that is not possible, can you think of any way to load ddo only for FreeBSD, but have Windows XP started with a regular MBR? I am not sure, why the ddo MBR does not boot Windows XP, but since Windows XP does not need it and ddo is not supported in dual boot environments, I guess I cannot complain.

The jesus fish (or holy mackerel or Ichthys or whatever you want to call it) has no variance of meaning across cultures, when it contains the Greek letters ΙΧΘΥΣ -- because it really only exists within one extended cultural family. Its meaning is clear. I'm not aware of any other meaning for the mere intersecting-arcs fish symbol itself, without the Greek letters, either -- but I wouldn't necessarily jump to any conclusions about it without trying to look it up and, failing that, asking about it (with clear reference to the fact that I tried and failed to look up any meanings aside from the obvious). Meanwhile, swastikas have many meanings, in many cultures. They have different meanings from the Nazi usage in parts of Asia, North America, and even in Germany itself. The Nazis got it *somewhere* you know; they didn't invent it. Context matters. I'd think a devout Christian would have much more reason to complain about a Flying Spaghetti Monster (whose only purpose is to mock mystical belief systems) than a Daemon, and that an Orthodox Jew would have much more reason to complain about SS lightning bolts than a non-diagonal swastika held aloft by a smiling Buddha. Considering we now have the Internet at our disposal, I'm not terribly inclined to give a lot of leeway to people who ask for symbols like a Buddhist swastika to be changed without having gone to the minimal trouble to look it up on Wikipedia. In truth, even the Hakenkreuz (the swastika variant the Nazis use) is not strictly negative in meaning; it was a Germanic folk symbol before it was misappropriated by the Nazis, and it has not *lost* that previous meaning just because it has gained strong negative associations to those who do not know its full history. Place it in a white circle on a red field, though, and as far as I'm concerned you have every right to be disturbed to see it associated with something you might otherwise like -- because that is quite clearly a Nazi-specific context. The same goes for the Nazi Party's parteiadler, depicting a stylized eagle atop a wreathed hakenkreuz. Again, my intention to butt in here was just to point out that many times we find things hilarious, a simple analogy can help us better understand that it may very serious to others, such is life though, and the 'others' should also make an effort to understand us. Sadly, our judgements almost always get in the way of seeing beyond each other's myopic viewpoint. The fact that someone misunderstands something that can be double-checked with trivial effort (far less effort than complaining on this mailing list), and uses that misunderstanding to justify complaints and trying to convince someone to change a mascot with years of history, seems in no way justified to me. For me, the key difference is not anyone's biases, per se -- it's willful ignorance, which I am never inclined to justify or excuse, in principle. Back to the issue at hand (and actually on-topic), I personally don't like the circle with cones and don't think that FBSD should move away from the little red Devil or Daemon or whatever you wanna call it (does he have a name?). In _my_ judgment, for example, the circle with cones looks like some sort of sexual fetish, but then again we're all free to interpret it as we like, and who am I, as a relative newcomer to FBSD to form an opinion anyway :) The mascot's name is Beastie (roughly homonymous with BSD). Of course, Beastie is *not* actually a FreeBSD symbol, per se: he's a BSD Unix symbol in general. The first sentence of the Wikipedia page for Beastie (Mascot) says The BSD daemon, nicknamed Beastie, is the generic mascot of BSD operating systems.[1] The sex toy logo doesn't do anything for me, but it is at least a FreeBSD-specific symbol, and I guess I'm willing to suffer the indignity of having a kind of dumb, largely meaningless symbol, if it means FreeBSD actually gets a symbol at all. My biggest complaint with the sex toy symbol is that it doesn't lend itself easily to simplification a logo really should
sudo -K/-k ineffective
Hi, Upon doing sudo some-command as a normal user (non-root), sudo asks for password only once, subsequent invocations of sudo doesn't ask for password - even though I do sudo -k or sudo -K in between. Although sudo starts asking for password after the time stamp expiry. in other words: % sudo mkdir /newdir sudo asks for password authentication, creates the directory after successful authentication % sudo -k % sudo -K % sudo mkdir /another_new_dir sudo don't ask for password authentication, and creates the directory In sudoers file, NOPASSWD is NOT set. here is my sudeors file: http://pastebin.com/WFnXCLE1 Output of uname -a: FreeBSD foo.bar 8.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE #0: Mon Jul 19 02:55:53 UTC 2010 r...@almeida.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Is this known bug?

Re: freebsd along with debian
If you already have Debian installed, with GRUB on MBR and you have a free primary partition lying around then you can install FreeBSD normally using the free primary partition as your BSD slice and making BSD partitions over it. When FreeBSD ask you about Bootloader chose to leave the MBR untouched. Once FreeBSD is installed you can boot into Debian and add FreeBSD entry in grub's config file. Next time you reboot you should get option to boot in Debian or FreeBSD right from GRUB. I did same 2 weeks ago, I had WinXP and Debian Testing, now I have FreeBSD and Debian Testing and I am happier than ever :) On Fri, Aug 6, 2010 at 12:26 PM, Umut Tabak umut.ta...@gmail.com wrote: Dear all, As a potential user of FreeBsd, I would like to install FreeBsd along with Debian testing.

As far as I can read from the installation manual, FreeBsd's partitioning scheme is different than linux, this is the 1st difference I know for now. I would appreciate if you could direct me to web pages(if any) where these differences are pointed out.

THe number of cdrom in /dev
hi, I'm sorry to bother you. I know you probably got something better to do. So I'll just take a minute. My system's been down for a while - anyway I wanted to add data from a cd, but the prompt reads can't have more than 32 cd devices or drives. I couldn't figure it out tried alot. So now I'd like to take some of the devices out of the directory. However, I rm and they mostly return. I'm careful to keep those I see in the ref 4.2 book but do I have to change permissions or file types or should I use mv to another directory so I don't lose them permenetly? Cause I need a job and all I want to do is -- Can you belive this! practice SQL admin and database --oh joy! anyway if you've got an advisory or a fix for this and your not to annoyed please send it. You guys do a great job I wouldn't miss this for nut'in.

PRINTING... Sure I'm lost somewhere
Hi. I lost my way... FreeBSD 4.9 updated via cvs/makeworld/etc to latest ENGREL_4. Installed CUPS+GHOSTSCRIPT+etc via ports. All seems okay. Modified /usr/local/etc/cups/cups.conf to accept my calling via web interfance (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:631) All it's okay... ..but... Yes there is a 'but'! Where is my Parallel Port ? I mean, I'm inside of CUPS admin web page. It's time to setup a printer. I choice name, etc... But when CUPS give me choice of the ports... there are everyone but the printer port! Maybe the kernel did not loaded ! I do a : 'dmesg | grep lpt0' and it return : lpt0: Printer on ppbus0 lpt0: Interrupt-driver port Then I do : lptcontrol -e -d /dev/lpt0 but it return me : lptcontrol: open: device busy Am I mistaking something ?

RE: Future of FreeBSD 7.0 and up
Dwight! What ! How! Installing FreeBSD takes flat 3 minutes!!! after i'm done, I do install the ports, with 2 more minutes!! Then from ports Tree I just command make install clean for Apache PHP5 webmin, lynx-ssl radius and few more ports, like pop3 and others.. PLUS!! i configure it as a gateway, for my datalink routers (wan branches) and lan GW, plus upgrading to latest patches..and adding few routes.. it takes, few hours, infact around 3 max! If I dunt upgrade the system it takes 1 hour only! so i dunt know how more easy you want it to be! Oh, forgot to tell you, i have a freebsd server thats working since year 2000!! till today! plus few others. The review you pointed us to, is just totally unprofessional one. Marwan Sultan System Administrator. From: Dwight Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] Good morning, My name is Dwight Smith, and I only had a question or two in terms of the future useability of FreeBSD. I have used it on and off and found it to be a great UNIX operating system for servers, but my only major concern was the amount of time it takes to prepare a server such as an Apache Server with PHP and MySQL support as opposed to a Linux system which is what I am currently using now as well as my company. I guess my question is that will the ease of building or installing software for FreeBSD ever streamline to where you do not have to do as many steps and text config file entries? What had me curious to asking this is this article I read about a review on FreeBSD 6.2 (http://www.softwareinreview.com/cms/content/view/67/) The reviewer had a lot of criticisms that seemed harsh, but at the same time raised some valid points. I only ask this question as I would like to see FreeBSD get the same recognition as Linux as FreeBSD is a powerful OS that should not be overshadowed and I hope it doesn't cause it saved my IT job many a times when a server crashes and I have to piece together an old PII with 32 MB RAM and install FreeBSD with Samba. So thanks in advance for your attention in this and I wish all of you the best.
