To install you have to disable UDMA in the BIOS. Re-enable UDMA once the patch has been applied. BTW, sound and USB work fine, have not tried firewire nor know of XFree86 support.

Jail setup with FreeBSD 5.0
Hi. I am trying to setup a jail in FreeBSD 5.0 RC2. I found out to use mount -t devfs / $D/dev instead of cd %D/dev; sh MAKEDEV jail. So, i configured my jail a bit, and wanted to start it with the command:jail /jail/ssh testhome 192.168.0.201 /bin/sh /etc/rc But the jail is not starting, here the output: hw.bus.devctl_disable: 1 - 1 Entropy harvesting:sysctl: kern.random.sys.harvest.interrupt: Operation not perm itted interruptssysctl: kern.random.sys.harvest.ethernet: Operation not permitted ethernetsysctl: kern.random.sys.harvest.point_to_point: Operation not permitted point_to_point.

make hierarchy
Hello all, the other day i tried to build a jail, which didn`t work out. I had started by updating all sources with 'releng=4'. this is what i did. D=/here/is/the/jail cd /usr/src make hierarchy DESTDIR=$D make obj make depend make all everything went well up till 'make all'. it gave errorcode 1. it couldn`t set my max.writespeed with burn.c if i recall correctly. So i tried it with downloading all sources with releng=4_7. Did all the previous steps and it gave me another errorcode 1. So i thought it would be the best thing to get the sources with releng=4_7_0 and do it all over again. When i got to make hierarchy DESTDIR=$D it said: don`t know how to make hierarchy. stopped. I's really like to try and build a jail, but i`m kinda stuck in the process. Does anyone know what to do or how to solve this?

I'm using 4.7-Release and I was wondering if my sources where uptodate! I

Revision numbers for example db_defs.h started with:
* from db.h 4.16 (Berkeley) 6/1/90
* $Id: db_defs.h,v 8.47 2002/05/18 01:02:53 marka Exp $
*/
There were no revision annotations anywhere in the file:
How do you find out if you have the correct sources of the files before
recompiling and installing?
Usually all you need to do is find the $FreeBSD label in the file, eg.
% grep -F '$FreeBSD' /usr/src/UPDATING
$FreeBSD: src/UPDATING,v 1.73.2.76 2002/11/20 16:56:45 bmah Exp $
Any file originating from the FreeBSD project will have a revision
label like that, as will many files imported from other sources.
However, as you correctly observe, some contributed sources don't
contain the revision label. In this case you've got to go to a
FreeBSD cvs repository and grab a copy of the appropriate version of
the file and compare it directly with what you have on your system.
eg.
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/contrib/bind/CHANGES?rev=1.1.1.7.2.8
Download the appropriate version, and diff(1) it against the version
in your source tree. If it's the same, then you're happy. If there
are differences, you're going to have to use the cvsweb.cgi interface
to see if it corresponds to an earlier or later version of the file
than shown in the advisory, and act accordingly.
Alternatively, look at the dates that fixes were applied as notified
in the advisory: if you last cvsup'd using one of the listed tags
after the given date (and did a {build,install}world cycle) then
you're in the clear.
In the specific case you mention, 4.7-RELEASE does contain the
vulnerability in question. Those are the files in CVS tagged with
RELENG_4_7_0_RELEASE. Your best option is probably to upgrade to
4.7-RELEASE-p2 which is the latest version on the RELENG_4_7 branch
and contains only minimal changes (all of which are security fixes)
compared to 4.7-RELEASE.

Re: your mail
Well! I have very many bad sectors! How can I do to get rid from them? Unfortunately, if you are seeing bad sectors, it probably means that you have already used up all the spare remapping sectors - this happens in the background without you knowing it.If this is true, it also probably means that the disk is rapidly going bad and just doing a low level format might buy you only a few days reprieve before it dies altogether. So, your best bet by far is to rescue as much important data from the disk as possible now and get a new disk. Forget the low level format.

undelete or ffsrecover
Hello,
First of all, if this is the wrong group, please redirect me to a more
appropiate place.
I am trying to recover some files I have accidentally deleted. However,
ffsrecov continuously complains about a corrupt super block and misssing
magic. The filesystems are ok, however (as long as you trust fsck) and
mount without problems.
I've also come across undelete(2), but since I have no clue about C, I
did not get very far with this (just put a main() { ... } around the
example. Compiled, but did not do anything).
I am running 4.7 stable (~week old) with soft-updates enabled
filesystems on an intel box.
Most info I found on the web said no chance, but have been quite old
and the appearance of an undelete function raised some hope.
Is there any way of getting those files back ? There has been no write
activity on that partition since and now its mounted read-only. I do
have the inode of the parent folder (which contents I am missing) and
the names of the top level files and directories.
Thanks for any help

simple xdm setup
Hi all, I want to set up my X configuration as follows: 1) I want all clients (people) to log in to machine 'Server'using the GUI login.This brings them to their desktop. Typically these people are on windows machines running X servers such as eXceed or X-Win32. Some might be tunneling through ssh (port forwarding)so they would need to connect to local displays? 2) There is no physical keyboard or mouse attached to 'Server' 3) for administration purposes the command line is adequate, so there is no need for a GUI console. Essentially I want the PCs to function like dumb terminals running X displays. This is a fairly common scenario right ? How do I set up xdm for this? I searched the web but clear info was very sparse for FreeBSD (I am on 4.6.2). All pointers/help appreciated. Thanks, Shv.

Re: problem
Hi, there... Didn't really sure can this helps... I had the problem like this with specific Compaq SCSI adapter. (sorry, didn't remember now it's numbers...etc) I reach out this problem by the way below: 1. Install fbsd on another pc (in my situation I have it on my desktop) 2. Build custom kernel with those SCSI adapters drivers 3. Put custom kernel into boot floppy. After that I start installation of fbsd as always and that's all...

Jenoptik JD2100f camera and FreeBSD?
This camera looks tempting. The software it comes with is for Windows and MacOS 9, of course. It's not listed by name on the gphoto2 list, though other Jenoptik cameras are. And it apparently works with Linux as a USB drive: http://www.steinionline.de/lol/JD2100f_en.htm - which suggests that working with FreeBSD should be at least *feasible*. So. Has anyone used this camera with FreeBSD? Or, at least, related Jenoptik cameras? I have FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE here.

The machine has 768 megs of ram 1024 megs of swap and GENERIC kernel. BSD is on it's own disk and I proceeded to build world while cp'ing some very large directories to the raided disks. On top of that I threw in a few large untar and gunzips on the raided drives . After a while the machine locked up. Where should I look to try to hunt down the problem of the machine locking up nder heavy loads? Are there any log files created that would lead me to believe it ran out of memory?

Compaq ML310 integrated ATA100 RAID controller supported?
One of the smaller offices where I work is looking to replace a decrepit P90 desktop running FreeBSD with newer server hardware. They got a quote from a vendor who wants to sell them a Compaq Proliant ML310 with two 40G ATA100 drives on a controller which does RAID 1 in hardware. I looked at the supported hardware list on freebsd.org to see whether the integrated ATA RAID controller in a Compaq ML310 is supported by FreeBSD. I see no mention of it, but I am not giving up yet. I have not found any information on Compaq's web site as to what chipset or manufacturer Compaq uses to implement this ATA RAID control- ler. Any leads as to the technical info of the controller chipset, and the degree of compatibility with any existing (or forthcoming) FreeBSD drivers would be appreciated. What I have found is the name of the driver, MegaIDE, and some various links to RedHat-ish tech support articles, such as: http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/15976.html If anyone is anyone running an ML310 with the integrated ATA RAID, I'd be grateful to know what device it uses, and any installation considera- tions arise from use of the integrated ATA RAID.

cdrecord problems: too many coasters
I have been trying to make some audio CDs from wav files and keep running into difficulties that aren't apparent until its too late. Symptomatically, here's what happens. I burn the CD with cdrecord, specifying that the files are audio files (I have played them with wavplay and they're fine). I get one track to record, but all subsequent tracks won't play in a CD player or computer. I just noise (sounds like the digital equivalent of a record skipping). here's the command I have used: sudo /usr/local/bin/cdrecord -pad -audio -vv speed=0 -eject dev=0,1,0 *wav -- Paul Beard: seeking UNIX/internet engineering work http://paulbeard.no-ip.org/paulbeard.html 8040 27th Ave NE Seattle WA 98115 / 206 529 8400 Disclaimer: These opinions are my own, though for a small fee they be yours too. -- Dave Haynie To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

It does have some legitimate uses, according to this page ( http://www.atstake.com/research/lc/ ): Consider that at one of the largest technology companies, where policy required that passwords exceed 8 characters, mix cases, and include numbers or symbols... * L0phtCrack obtained 18% of the passwords in 10 minutes * 90% of the passwords were recovered within 48 hours on a Pentium II/300 * The Administrator and most Domain Admin passwords were cracked It doesn't have to be this way. Crack-resistant passwords are achievable and practical. But password auditing is the only sure way to identify user accounts with weak passwords. LC4 offers an easy and adaptable way to address this threat and find vulnerable passwords. Take it from a 1998 Microsoft security bulletin: consider evaluating a tool such as L0phtcrack 2.0 for assisting in checking the quality of user passwords. -- Paul Beard: seeking UNIX/internet engineering work http://paulbeard.no-ip.org/paulbeard.html 8040 27th Ave NE Seattle WA 98115 / 206 529 8400 Laughter is the closest distance between two people. -- Victor Borge To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message -- Stacey Roberts B.Sc (HONS) Computer Science Web: www.vickiandstacey.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
RE: L0phtcrack
Not thatasking how to crack Windows passwords from a hotmail email box is just highly suspicious. Acting angry when you get questioned about it is even more so. I also point out that I'm not the one needing an answer. There is an answer to your question, we just want more information about who you are and why you want to know. If you want to continue in this vein, I'll be happy to accomodate you. Flame mail doesn't really bother me. If you want to offer a decent and reasonable explanation, I'll be happy to help you.
