Interesting new warnings in boot msgs from -current kernel

RE: LDAPed FreeBSD
Are you trying to configure your entire system using LDAP as the database backend, or are you trying to serve current system info? If you are trying *configure* the system using LDAP as a database, then good luck. Our company, Cybernet Systems, has spent over ten man-years developing a HTML-based front-end for just such a purpose. When we (I) first started this project (NetMAX, http://www.netmax.com/), we evaluated LDAP as a backend. I found it too buggy (at the time) for our purposes. Does it implement record locking on read/write? Does it allow you to "batch" your changes? Does it provide for server start/restart when appropriate? Can you do cross-validation of data, for example, can you make sure that you give the DHCP server an IP address that is not already taken, or make sure that it is in one of your subnets? There are lots and lots (gobs!) of these kinds of checks that need to be done for a "complete" system configuration service. If it doesn't daemon restarts, batch-mode changes, and system checking/cross- validation, then you'll probably end up with something similar to webmin (http://www.webmin.com/). PLUG You could easily spend years making a complete interface to setup your server, or you could purchase the NetMAX software (about $500, see http://www.netmax.com/). A FreeBSD 3.2 version is in-the-works (a 2.2.7-system/2.2.8-kernel is currently available). Also, a Linux version (based on RedHat 5.2 with a 2.0.37 kernel) is currently in beta (the distributed beta is a 2.0.36 kernel, though). /PLUG -Mark Taylor NetMAX Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netmax.com/ On 04-Jul-99 Amancio Hasty wrote: I am playing around with configuring the system and providing a CLI , programmatic interface and a html interface . Floating in my mind is to present a uniform configuration repository similar to windows registery however the information repository is implemented with LDAP. See http://www.openldap.org for info on LDAP. The tough part is creating the LDAP schemas for the various daemons or services. Got lucky and found an IETF draft : An LDAP Schema for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Service http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-gu-dhcp-ldap-schema-00.txt I am using the above draft to explore configuring dhcpd. My first cut at configuring dhcpd via LDAP is to extract all the configuration information from the LDAP server and writing the information to dhcpd's configuration file and then have dhcpd parse the configuration file. This approach minimizes the changes to dhcpd and provides persistent configuration information for dhcpd. The start of my html interface is at: http://www.star-gate.com/dhcpd.html Thats just a dummy front end . The real interface is being implemented as a servlet and will provide a more rich presentation --- help files , How To, etc... The CLI interface can be as easy as using the existing ldap shell tools. The programmatic interface is simply the LDAP C and Java interface available from : http://www.mozilla.org/directory So far I have a simple ldap schema based upon the IETF draft which I can manage from my servlet and query from dhcpd.

AMD K6-III CPU and Tyan S1590S at 450MHz
FYI, I just upgraded from a Pentium/P54C at 133MHz on a Tyan Titan-III motherboard to an AMD K6-III CPU at 450Mhz (100MHz bus speed) on a Tyan S1590S "Trinity 100" AT-form factor motherboard. Runs really good! I previously built a machine with a K6-2 at 350MHz on an FIC VA-503+ motherboard for FreeBSD testing and as the Windoze 98 platform for Total Annihilation game playing, and was very happy at how that worked out. So, when it came time to upgrade the old Pentium, I did the AMD thing again. The on-board 256K L2 cache and 100MHz bus really makes this machine quite spritely. Even with the crummy old SCSI fast (non wide, non ultra) disk, there's a very noticable improvement. At boot: CPU: AMD-K6(tm) 3D+ Processor (450.92-MHz 586-class CPU) Origin = "AuthenticAMD" Id = 0x591 Stepping=1 Features=0x8021bfFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,MCE,CX8,PGE,MMX AMD Extended Features=0x808029bfFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,K6MSR,MCE,CX8,SYSCALL,PGE,M MX,3DNow!

This combination is recommended (by me, at least). After doing computer surgery to swap motherboards it came right up with no problems at all. I was surprised. I've submitted a PR with a patch to add support for the L2 cache display above for -CURRENT. louie To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Depends on your motherboard. Try to just disable UDMA66 first. Thanks, that's what I did. It works fine (I'm using a SOYO 5EHM motherboard with an AMD K6-2/200). Performance is excellent; bonnie gives: ---Sequential Output ---Sequential Input-- --Random-- -Per Char- --Block--- -Rewrite-- -Per Char- --Block--- --Seeks--- MB K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU /sec %CPU svax32if 100 10336 95.5 14246 57.3 5733 35.9 11372 95.4 17128 57.0 147.9 3.3 that's 17MB/s for block reads (this varies quite a bit depending on the physical position on the disk). Not bad for a disk costing £165 for 13.5GB. On the other hand the system really grinds to a halt while the benchmark is running.

Also, what are your make.conf options? Make sure that you don't have NOPERL defined in there.

alpha kernel build failure (w/patch)
Anyone object to me fixing the wb driver so kernel builds on
the Alpha don't fall over anymore? The patch was gleened from
the similar changes to the al driver. Thanks.

Re: loads of SetAttrs in cvsup of cvs repo
* Mark Huizer ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [990705 02:47]: I did change the cvsup server some time ago, but I'm now back at cvsup.nl.FreeBSD.org hey! that's my queue! when did it start to happen? If it was last week, then there might have been some cause in the upgrading of the machine to 3.2, or it might involve softupdates. That was once last week, which made sense to me after you told me you upgraded cvsup.nl. I think Wilko must have suffered from the same `problem'. regards, -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven asmodai(at)wxs.nl The BSD Programmer's Documentation Project http://home.wxs.nl/~asmodai Network/Security SpecialistBSD: Technical excellence at its best Cum angelis et pueris, fideles inveniamur.
