What does portsclean *mean*?

2002-11-28 Thread Roger Merritt
I tried running portsclean after upgrading a lot of my ports recently, and 
got this output:

[root@kepler:/usr/ports]# portsclean -DL
Detecting unreferenced distfiles...
no unreferenced distfiles found.
** /usr/lib/compat/libc_r.so.4 is shadowed by /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4
** /usr/lib/compat/libedit.so.3 is shadowed by /usr/lib/libedit.so.3

So, does this mean I should delete the libraries in /usr/lib/compat? Then 
continuing:

** You have multiple versions of libgobject-1.3 but 2 of them are not from 
packages:
gobject-1.3.13 (/usr/local/lib/libgobject-1.3.so.13)- ?
gobject-1.3.1 (/usr/local/lib/libgobject-1.3.so.1)  - ?
and the symlink (/usr/local/lib/libgobject-1.3.so) points to:

 -- Skipping gobject-1.3.13 because it is newer than what the packages 
provide

 -- Skipping gobject-1.3.1 because it is newer than what the packages provide

I don't understand what I should do here. Should I delete the older 
libraries? What does it matter that they are not from packages? I never use 
packages, I always download and build the port, which is how I just got 
these conflicts! Or are they conflicts? Do they matter? If not, why does 
portsclean tell me about them?

** You have multiple versions of libglib-1.3 but 2 of them are not from

** Clean out /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg manually on occasions.

Does this mean I should delete the three libraries in 
/usr/local/lib/compat/pkg?

** Try using libchk(1) (sysutils/libchk) to find out unreferenced libraries.

One of my gripes about the portupgrade group of tools is that their 
documentation doesn't explain their error messages. Any help would be 
appreciated.

ok, i'm obviously not making myself clear...  my problem wasn't

Problems with ftp

2002-11-28 Thread Werner Rips
Hello,
I need some help with ftp.
Just installed FreeBSD4.7 on two boxes. On both I activated ftpd in 
ined.conf.
When I start an ftp session, I can login, but when I want to transfer 
files bigger then 1024 bytes,
the ftp client goes into --stalled-- and does not transfer anything.
With files smaller than 1024 bytes the transfer works fine.

Can someone tell me what to do?

Thanks in advance

Just a guess.  FTP has an 'active' mode and a
'passive' mode.  I believe that your default
environment sets your FTP client to 'passive.'

Once you have logged in to the FTP server,
enter the command 'passive'; this will turn
'passive' mode off, placing you in 'active'
mode.  Then try your transfer.

FreeBSD as Desktop OS with support for Windows

Hi People

I want to use FreeBSD as my desktop OS with Gnome but I still need to do 
Windows luser support. I have installed Gnome 2 on FreeBSD 4.7 Stable and 
now I'm trying to figure out what is the best solution. Does the Vmware 
port still work and or should I just install Samba and which Office

experience using either.

I use TightVNC instead of vmware. Works quite fine, and it's almost

As for office software: all my attempts to use various incarnations
ended in disasters:

Koffice (~1 year ago): no Kapplication lasted longer than ~30
seconds
AbiWord (june/july): 70% of attempts to save a short and simple
.doc made Abi go in a tight loop or just die. I ended up using
wv (/usr/ports/textproc/wv), which *did* work as advertised.
OpenOffice (~1 month ago): crash! boom! bang!

I use vmware (version 2) continuously with 4.x-R (in the moment 4.7-R) and
it works very well. As far as I know there is no support for hosting
the current vmware version 3 on FreeBSD.

www.realvnc.com

The original vnc project from ATT has moved to become RealVNC.
I've used tightvnc for months, but I recommend you look at realvnc.
It's faster, more reliable and the graphics don't take a year to update
over slow links.

It also has cool support for bandwidth adjustments so it can pick the best
encoding to use automatically. It works very well in my experience.
You can even install it on a live remote system (which I've also done many
times) by checking the 'resgister as service' and 'start vnc service'
boxes in the installed.

installed 1.0.1 from the port.

the installer kept complaining about not being able to write files

started openoffice, went File - Autopilot - Presentation (or some
such).  booom! instant crash.  how long does it take to click through to

automatic save of native MS Office documents = automatic crash of OO.

pasting a graph from a winword doc file = general failure in 70%
cases.

in 1 out of 10 crashes the PowerPoint lookalike comes back up dead.
it does offer to recover the files, but then freezes.  after another

At work I have the luxury of having a second computer (an old one) with
Win2k on it if I have to walk a user through something, or test
something before we put it into production.  I use vnc (in ports) to
manage the servers.

I use openoffice--my workstation is running 4.7.  I just downloaded
openoffice from openoffice.org and installed it following the directions
for Linux (using the FreeBSD binaries) more or less--untarred it into
tmp, then, as user cd'd to tmp and did ./setup.  It complained about
being unable to register a README file, I clicked ignore, and everything
went fine--I can read Word and Excel documents if necessary, and create
ones that are compatible for the users if I have to do so.

Quick note--at home I'm using CURRENT as workstation--started doing it
just for fun, but right now, everything is working perfectly--however,
the openoffice.org binaries didn't work properly--however, there is a
tbz package made just for current--I don't have the url handy at this
instant, but if you need it let me know (I found it by going to the
FreeBSD search mailing lists thing, put in openoffice and just chose
CURRENT as the only list to search and it was the first or second hit.)
That works perfectly in CURRENT.

If you simply need MS to walk a user through something from time to
time, vnc would probably be adequate--if you need one running MS handy
to test out things then you might have to use VMWare or the like. Or
take some box that a user has totally ruined and slap Win2k on it and
just use that when you have to use MS. :)

Hope this is of some help

Samba is only for Windows Network Neighborhood support... meaning that
it allows FreeBSD to show up on a windows network. As far as I know if you
have the vmware software the port should still work, but I don't know if
it can download the vmware stuff from anywhere. If you get vmware working
you can just use ms office inside the virtual machine... I'm not sure
which of the office packages you listed works the best... but I've had
pretty good experience with koffice being able to open most .doc files.

Network Driver not being probed during boot

2002-11-28 Thread David Dooley
Hi,

Can any one tell me if they are using the de network interface card and if
it is still working with a 4.7 kernel. I built a kernel approx 50 days ago and
all was fine. Any kernel I build now with the latest supped sources and the
network card is not being probed during boot. The card works fine if I boot a
4.4 Generic kernel.

Has the de NIC been depreciated in favour of another driver if so what. I
can find nothing in the UPDATING file in /usr/src. A friend informs me that
the de driver source has not been touched since some time in 2000, but
something has changed. I am using the same kernel configuration file that I
have used on this box for almost a year now and it normally get an upgrade
every couple of months.

If any further information is required I'd be pleased to supply.

Thanks for your time and consideration of this problem

David.

 Subject: how to ssh as root


 
  I used to ssh as root to a FreeBSD box and uses the root password.
  Today, I reinstall 4.5-Release and try the same thing:
 
  $ ssh -l root mymachine
  otp-md5 100 pl6491 ext
  S/Key Password:
 
  I was expecting something like:
 
  $ ssh -l root mymachine
  root@mymachine's password:
 
  I did set PermitRootLogin to yes in file /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Why this
  change?
 
  Thanks.

Am I correct?
and which linux progrom should I install

Thank you very much



Why do you not use the FBSD native one? This work
fine.


Please avoid top posting and cc the list, please.

The meaning of the FreeBSD native one is: there is a binary which is 
compiled for FreeBSD and that does not need any linux emulation.

Why don't you use that Zend Optimizer?

 all was fine. Any kernel I build now with the latest supped sources and the
 network card is not being probed during boot. The card works fine if I boot a
 4.4 Generic kernel.

Hmmm... Can you compare dmesg from the failing kernel to dmesg from
the 4.4 kernel which works?  Is it just the de0 card that's failing to
show up?  What output does:

pciconf -l -v

produce?

 Has the de NIC been depreciated in favour of another driver if so what. I
 can find nothing in the UPDATING file in /usr/src. A friend informs me that
 the de driver source has not been touched since some time in 2000, but
 something has changed. I am using the same kernel configuration file that I
 have used on this box for almost a year now and it normally get an upgrade
 every couple of months.

No changes in that area of the kernel have happened recently that I'm
aware of.

You're probably running a native apache binary. You can't mix this
with linux binaries. Make sure you build everything native from source.

Question from an Argentinian developer

2002-11-28 Thread Diego Efe
Hi,
   First, I want to thank you all for this great OS,
to me, it beats every other Free Unix system, at
least...
   I'm making my first steps in C/C++ programming
after a couple years of PHP/Perl/JavaScript scripting.
   I've started a little program to try to manage
filesystem quotas whitout having to manually edit
(with $EDITOR) the parameters.
   Investigating I found out that I have the
quotactl() function to do the job and the statfs()
call to retrieve filesystem information, but here's
the question.
   I'm having problems with the values that the statfs
retrieves. I've been comparing mi values with the ones
returned by the webmin (webmin.org) utility, who in
turn calls the edquota, quotacheck, etc. functions and
can't understand the system. In some cases seems to
work using statfs-f_blocks * dqb_curblocks and the
like but, to finally ask the question:
   I have made the whole circuit of FreeBSD
documentation, really, but still can't understand the
values.
  Finally, I'm running a 4.6.2 version on a AMD K6-II.
  I'll appreciate any help and please excuse my poor
english. Keep up!

Diego

 No, it addresses exactly your problem, modulo the fact that your

 different.

 ok, i'm obviously not making myself clear...  my problem wasn't
 replacing a drive in the RAID, it was replacing the root disk. the
 system booted off a seperate stand alone root disk. the RAID is entirely
 independant of the root/boot drive.

Yes, you're certainly not making yourself clear.  Why did you need to
do anything?  In a previous message you stated that you did a 'vinum
create', though it's not clear why.  I suggest you send me (in private

Note the difference between VSZ and RSS.  VSZ is the amount of
memory that the process has mapped, RSS is what is physically in
memory.  So parts are being dumped to swap as memory fills up.
Freebsd will swap out parts that aren't being used.  This is not a
bad thing, unless your machine is using swap a lot (run top or
systat -vm to see what's happening in real time) - in which case you
need to get more ram (or reduce the use of it).

However, that looks like a particularly high value for nmbd there.
Maybe it's a memory leak (or not) be a memory leak.  You could
probably get some of your swap back by restarting samba :-)

ntp server problems on 10.x.y.z address subnet

2002-11-28 Thread vikashb
Greetings,

I have a FBSD 4.5p23 box which I have configured to act
as a ntp server for a 10.x.y.z subnet 
the conf files are :
/etc/ntp.conf

server 198.w.x.1
driftfile /var/run/driftfile

/etc/rc.conf

ntpdate_flags=198.w.x.1
ntpdate_enable=YES
xntpd_enable=YES
xntpd_program=ntpd
xntpd_flags=-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid


configs :
hq-gw  = 198.w.x.1   (fbsd box clients can connect)
hq-ntp = 196.z.y.2
fw-hq-pvt  = 198.w.x.189 + 10.131.156.2
pvt-ntp= 10.131.156.5 (fbsd box clients can not connect)

clients can connect to hq-gw 
clients can not connetc to pvt-ntp

The HQ chaps will not route 10.x.x.x adresses
since they use those adresses between routers.

The pvt-ntp gets its clock from hq-gw.
hq-gw gets its clock from a server ht-ntp
hq-ntp gets its clock from lennier.cc.vt.edu.

I have check the firewall rules on fw-hq-pvt
and the rules are :
allow pass udp from any to hq-gw 123
allow pass udp from hq-gw 123 to any.

on pvt-ntp:
if i execute ntpdate hq-gw
i get :
ntpdate[pid]: adjust time server hq-gw offset 
if i execute ntptrace hq-gw
i get :
198.w.x.1: stratum 15, offset -1.362497, synch distance 0.05914
196.z.y.2:*Timeout*

If i move pvt-ntp to the 198.w.x network,
then clients can connect to it.
if i move it to the 10.131.156 network
then clients get no server suitable for synchronization found

Please advise.

I need your advice .
which of the two would be faster on freebsd ?
any optimaization tips ?
the system will handle a few mailing lists of 30,000+ subscribers ( news letters ,not 
a discussion list ) and over 20,000 users.
I am thinking of load balancing this between three servers and am looking for info on 
that as well.
thanks 
Ber .

interpretation of arp output

2002-11-28 Thread Cliff Sarginson
Hello,
An arp -a gives the following line (amongst many happy bunnies)

angelus.raggedclown.intra (192.168.1.50) at 00:a0:cc:d1:fb:88 on rl0
[ethernet]
? (192.168.1.255) at ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff on rl0 permanent [ethernet]

Can someone explain this to me .. the line with the ? obviously.
Whether it is relevant or not the line above represents a Windows
XP system that does not get run very often (which means it may always
be there, but I have never noticed it).

uname

FreeBSD willow.raggedclown.intra 4.7-STABLE FreeBSD 
4.7-STABLE #0: Mon Nov 25 02:28:08 CET 2002

A question on AppleLaser Writer 16/1600 PS [off-topic-ish]

2002-11-28 Thread Cliff Sarginson
Hi,
I have been given on of these beasts.
I am going to set it up as a network printer.
However the giver does not remember the password
or IP address assigned to it (you use telnet obviously
to login to it for configuration). He has not used it in
2 years so I suppose that may be understandable.

Reading the handbook it seems you can expunge the IP address, but
methinks you need the password to get in first :(.

Does anyone know a trick for this ?

When did Sendmail become a third-string MTA?
