Dear FreeBSD-Team, I have a problem and I hope you can help. I will install the RouteServerDaemon on FreeBSD and I need SNMPI, a program for analyzing the MIBs. My problem is that there is no version for FreeBSD and I hope you can help me! Thanks!

Re: Shell guru needed.
Try any unix primer or
man find
or
find /my/unorganized/dir -name '*.pdf' -type f -exec echo mv {} /my/pdfs \;
and pray that you do not have files with identical names.

SOLVED: XFree86 lockfile?
I'm afraid I don't know enough about Microsoft to give you any further information, but since you say that it happened after the DHCP lease expires, you should check your configuration files on the Microsoft machine to see if they are making any assumptions about IP addresses. You could also try manually starting the client on eldar, pointing it at the (running) X server on your Microsoft box. Something like: xterm -display microsoft:0 this did the trick, after i started it, it gave the report that it couldn't find the computername. I checked the DNS entry's and they where all correct. After that i checked the /etc/hosts and saw that there was an error there. (the computername was listed multiple times with diverent IP's). After correcting this, xdm gave my Xserver a beautifull login prompt. :-) Thnx for helping me out guys!

Do you mean snmpi(8) --- as in http://www.tru64unix.compaq.com/docs/base_doc/DOCUMENTATION/V40G_HTML/MAN/MAN8/0326.HTM That I believe is a part of the isode SNMP agent which is mentioned in http://www.snmp.com/FAQs/snmp-faq-part2.txt, but the site given in that FAQ (http://metalab.unc.edu/linux/pub/Linux/system/network/isode/) apears to have gone the way of all flesh. As far as I can tell, the isode SNMP agent is pretty much obsolete nowadays (it was mentioned on a FreeBSD mailing list back in 1997-ish back when FreeBSD 2.1.x was current). Although it started as a BSD-ish program (http://www.funet.fi/pub/unix/osi/isode-ports.txt) there apears not to be any sort of port on FreeBSD nowadays. It also seems to have nothing to do with http://www.isode.com/ any more. Even if you could dig up an old version somewhere on the net and get it installed on FreeBSD, you should think twice. There were some very nasty security bugs discovered last year that are apparently present in almost all SNMP implementations (http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-03.html) and you definitely want to install something that has had those bugs fixed. Nowadays, you'ld install one of the net-snmp ports (ports/net/net-snmp or ports/net/net-snmp4) to provide SNMP functionality, but I have no idea if your routing program would be able to integrate with either of those versions. There is no 'snmpi' program supplied with those packages, and I can't see (off hand) any program providing equivalent functionality.

No. Reading the man page for mailwrapper reveals that /usr/sbin/sendmail is usually a symbolic link to it, but on my system /usr/sbin/sendmail is linked to /usr/local/sbin/sendmail, which I believe is the postfix-installed version. Instead of symlinking /usr/sbin/sendmail - /usr/local/sbin/sendmail, you could use mailwrapper the way it was designed to work, and leave the sendmail symlink in /usr/sbin to mailwrapper. Then, configure mailwrapper by editing /etc/mail/mailer.conf and pointing mailwrapper to the proper paths. I'm thinking I want to avoid making mailwrapper? What happens if I DO make it when I don't really need it?

Re: Quake III
Ruslik, The X error you sent seemed to be a permissions error to '/dev/mem', an error I'm not used to seeing. I don't think /dev/mem should be world readable. It seems that X must be suid root to read this. I don't currently run Quake client, but the module you need for X is 'GLX' or 'DRI'. These modules enable OpenGL, which is needed to run the client. Perhaps someone running client can comment. Your video card must support OpenGL for this to work. A good link for documentation on this is http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/q3a/ You must be sure that you are running linux emulation version 'base 7', not 'base 6'. The older version has antique libraries, and will cause Quake3Arena server or add-on modules to fail. I do not install the server from the ports collection. I use a quake3 install CD and the latest linux point release. Hope this is helpful, Jeff Love Burgh-Com In /etc/rc.conf linux_enable=YES I run quake3.x86 and X server lost. Log file in attach.

RE: 5.0RC2 on an iPaq IA1
Don't rule out hardware problems. I have been working with 4.7R on an IA-1. The power supplies in there aren't the greatest, and I've had problems with wireless keyboards loading the units down to where they had problems booting. I would suggest you get a self-powered USB hub, and make all your connections through it (or try one of those keychain NAND drives). I managed to get everything, including the wireless keyboard transciever, to work just fine that way. That said, I've had the most success with booting my IA-1 from a microdrive. I did have to boost the CF Vcc to 5V by lifting and jumpering the middle two pins to an unused serial connector (CN10), but that done, the system is remarkably stable. BTW - is your IA-1 a white or blue unit? I'm still trying to figure out how to get FBSD to recognize the external MII PHY on the clipper ethernet port.

archos and freebsd
Hello, I got an Archos Jukebox Studio 20 for Christmas, and want to hook it up to my FreeBSD box. It's uses a usb cable for data transfer, and I've never had to use usb on FreeBSD before. I've done some research and the best page I could find with instructions was http://www.stalker.org/~sean/freebsd-p2040/... but the kernel config and supplied archos.sh script doesn't work for me. I'm a little behind when it comes to usb... is that what firewire is? On his page it says to compile firewire, sbp, scbus, da and umass. I'm cvsup'ed to 4.7 stable from release and did what he said. When I try and 'mount -t msdos /dev/da0s1 /archos' I get 'Device not configured'. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I believe that you need to get the source for JDK from the sun site (after agreeing to their license agreement) and then compile it using the patches provided at the following site: http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk13.html See above site for more info.

difs between 4.6.2 and 4.7
I'm installing freebsd on a dell laptop (latituted). It only has a 6 gig drive. I guess my concern is to keep the install small both required memory and disk space. Yet, i would like to use the 'newest' version in hopes that it will have the latest kde and xfree stuff. This may be a mistake though. if the choice is between 4.6.2 and 4.7 which would be a better install if the criterion were 1) keep the install small (hard disk space) 2) keep the working set small in ram 3) make sure the important ports will work -- kde, openoffice, -- a good gui browser (any recommendations) and zope tia. -- David Bear College of Public Programs/ASU Mail Code 0803 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

audacity is creating (??) unwritable-by-cdrecord wave files
As the subject says I am creating and manipulating wav files of audio tap recordings. The extent of manipulation is to join sides A B into one file and do some noise reduction cleanup, and write the file in wav format. then attempting to write the file to cd with cdrecord cdrecord -v -eject speed=12 -pad -audio file.wav results in the following error. cdrecord: Inappropriate audio coding Googling on the error gets me this solution After some poking around I found that these files are often mono (one channel) and that the following conversion makes them writable by both cdrecord and xcdroast: sox infile.wav -c 2 outfile.wav split Can someone explain the problem behind thise solution as I'd much rather fix this in writing the file from audacity.

Xargs is pretty neat. You have to remember that there are different
implementations of it, too, so xargs on Linux would probably be
different than xargs on *BSD (it always is different in my experience).
The differences would mainly be in switches and default behavior.
I use xargs with lots of different utilities, just depending on what I
need to do with whatever files I'm catching. For example, let's say I
wanted to rename some files:
locate *.PDF | xargs -I % mv % `basename % .PDF`.pdf
It's handy if you have a bunch of files in one directory that you want
to check somehow:
ls *.{jpg,gif} | xargs -J % file % | grep -v 'JPEG\|GIF'
Moving files to another directory is a popular use:
locate *.suf | xargs -J % mv % /path/to/dir
Note that you do not always need to use xargs.
locate *.PDF | while read name; do
mv $name ${name%.PDF}.pdf
done
There's lots more you can do with it. Your imagination is almost your
only limitation. :-)

Note that the packages get access to rules in the order in which they were loaded, e.g. if IPFW is compiled in the kernel and IPF is loaded as a module, IPFW sees packets before IPF. -randall -- :// randall s. ehren :// voice 805.893.5632 :// systems administrator:// isber|survey|avss.ucsb.edu :// institute for social, behavioral, and economic research To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Driver for DVD-RAM
Greetings fellow BSD enthusiast. Can you let me know how to persue the following question, in the event that it has already been posted and answered. I am interested in attaching a DVD-RAM drive to an Intel computer with FreeBSD operating system. The computer has a S.C.S.I. board, and Panasonic makes a drive that attaches to a S.C.S.I. board. Panasonic offers no device drivers for FreeBSD. Has anyone else tried to do this? Is a device driver available? Can the proposed arrangement work with a default S.C.S.I. driver? Could such a device be made bootable? Any advice is appreciated. [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Re: Disable Mozilla profile
I once suggested on bugzilla that there ought to be a -never-ever-show-the-profile-manager option when starting mozilla, but I don't think it went over very well. Here is the (fairly active) bug, relating to mozilla opening a new window when it is already running and its icon is clicked again: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122698 Not sure in what context you are seeing the unwanted profile manager. I have a bunch of X-terminals running from a FreeBSD server, and when the (mostly windows-trained) users get the profile manager they tend to panic. And even if they don't panic, there is a somewhat tricky proxy setup which needs to be set up if they try to make a new profile. It never works. It would be very nice to just disable profiles completely.

Re: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter
Does anyone know any hardware (of the size of a regular home DSL router) that can give me a simple limit of X bps for two IP addresses. I am running out of time and removing ipfilter (which I use now) and adding ipfw, learning dummynet and then figuring out will take time (at least 5 days with my FreeBSD IQ level). I am also hoping it would be in $500 range. just add IPFW, IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT, and DUMMYNET to your kernel, no need to remove IPFILTER. then just add whatever rules are needed for dummynet. IPFW should then leave your packets alone for ipfilter to handle. -randall -- :// randall s. ehren :// voice 805.893.5632 :// systems administrator:// isber|survey|avss.ucsb.edu :// institute for social, behavioral, and economic research To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: archos and freebsd
Okay - I added a couple more things to my kernel config file - but for all I know they have nothing to do with getting what I want. From what I've read, this is just supposed to work. I feel like I'm taking shots in the dark trying different kernel configs, etc. I did read the firewire/00README file - but given my level of knowledge with kernel source and modules it didn't really help much. I assumed that everything was done when I did a build/installworld to 4.7 stable. I have tried the two methods that I thought would work... first was the complete build/installworld. When that didn't work I did what the firewire/00README file stated, downloaded the latest firewire tarball and made it manually. Neither worked.

Installing FreeBSD 4.7
Dear Sir, I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.7 onto a device. It's a PIII-1.2GHz with 1024 megs of memory, two-drive RAID supported by Promise FastTrak100. I can boot the Kernel floppy and MFS root floppy with no problem. After all the conflicts had been resolved, /stand/sysinstall Main Menu was displayed. Then I selected a standard installation. I got a message --- No disks found! I'm wondering if FreeBSD 4.7 can be installed in above device. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

RE: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter
The question is, are they charging you for total bandwidth used, or some real time rate limit? When you use bandwidth shaping, you can reduce your rate, but that will just spread things out. So if they are charging you for total bytes moved, then you would have to do some math to figure out what that breaks down to in Mbps, and put a throttle in to that rate. I'm not sure what Mike means by packets already traversing the network. If you shape your bandwidth, it's not like all those packets just pile up at your server's front door, waiting to get in. The IP protocol will pause within itself to not exceed your defined bandwidth. -Daniel -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Hari Bhaskaran Sent: Friday, January 03, 2003 6:24 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter Hari: I think you are going to find that rate-limiting at the box won't provide any fiscal relief.

May be /usr/ports/sysutils/ipa is the answer to your problem. Quote from port description: ipa(8) allows to make IP accounting (network accounting) based on FreeBSD IPv4/v6 Firewall (including IPFW2), OpenBSD Packet Filter and IP Filter accounting rules on FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD. It supports limits for accounting rules and limits events as limit is reached, reached limit is expired, etc. It understands time intervals like end of day, end of week, end of month, etc. ipastat(8) is a viewer for IP accounting database made by ipa(8).

Re: Driver for DVD-RAM
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Greetings fellow BSD enthusiast. Can you let me know how to persue the following question, in the event that it has already been posted and answered. I am interested in attaching a DVD-RAM drive to an Intel computer with FreeBSD operating system. The computer has a S.C.S.I. board, and Panasonic makes a drive that attaches to a S.C.S.I. board. Panasonic offers no device drivers for FreeBSD. Has anyone else tried to do this? Is a device driver available? Can the proposed arrangement work with a default S.C.S.I. driver? Could such a device be made bootable? Any advice is appreciated. [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm no SCSI or or DVD-RAM expert, but I think I can answer some of your questions. For reading, the DVD-RAM should look like a CD-ROM to the SCSI system. Whether or not there is a driver is something you can check at the hardware list on www.freebsd.org. Even if there isn't a specific driver, it _might_ work anyway, if it's pretty standard in its design. As far as writing to the device, there are no drivers that I know of. However, FreeBSD has a spiffy SCSI passthru system that allows software to directly control SCSI devices: this is how cdrecord works. Last I checked, cdrecord did work for many DVD burners, but you couldn't get the DVD capable version for free, you had to purchase it. That's been almost a year, so things may have changed, but there's a point for you to start researching.

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. === Last update 3 September 1999 This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. = Contents: I:Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the questions (the hackers). Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey [EMAIL PROTECTED] Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? === Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people
The Complete FreeBSD, second edition: errata and addenda
Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Last revision: 21 June 1999 The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printingout,at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] General changes ___ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake [EMAIL PROTECTED] for this information Location of the sample files On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM).

Something like: xterm -display microsoft:0 this did the trick, after i started it, it gave the report that it couldn't find the computername. I checked the DNS entry's and they where all correct. After that i checked the /etc/hosts and saw that there was an error there. (the computername was listed multiple times with diverent IP's). After correcting this, xdm gave my Xserver a beautifull login prompt. :-) Glad to hear that we've solved the problem. But looking back, consider the approach. Reinstalling seldom helps.

Re: Disable Mozilla profile
In the last episode (Jan 03), Adam Stroud said: Thanks for the reply, I am seeing the profile manager when I try to open a second instance of Mozilla. I cant open another instance until I create another profile. I understand that these profiles can be useful, but they can also be a sole reason not to use Mozilla. You should not try and open a second instance of Mozilla on the same profile, since they won't communicate with each other and you'll probably end up corrupting your cache files, bookmarks, history, etc etc. The mozilla port installs a wrapper script at /usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla that only launches mozilla the first time it is called, and after that passes commands to the running instance. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Redirecting root's email
I am having trouble redirecting root's email to an external email
account. This is a 4.7-Release box with not very modifications done to
the standard installation.
I have tried creating a .forward file and placing it in /root with my
external email address in the file. No luck.
I tried editing /etc/aliases and changed the line:
#root: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
to:
root : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and then I ran the newaliases command. Still no luck.
I think it has something to do with name resolution, but I'm not sure
what's going on. In /etc/hosts I have the following:
127.0.0.1 localhost.visimation.com localhost
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxforcefield.visimation.com forcefield
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxforcefield.visimation.com.
In /etc/resolv.conf I have this:

iomega usb zip 100
Dear FreeBSDers, I've tried using the mount command to mount my USB Iomega Zip 100 drive but have failed. Upon boot w/ the device plugged into the pc, the kernal recognizes it as umass0 but on the very next line it states that Get Lun (stalled). How do I mount a USB Iomega Zip 100 drive under FreeBSD 4.7?

Re: Disable Mozilla profile
Thanks for the reply, I am seeing the profile manager when I try to open a second instance of Mozilla. I cant open another instance until I create another profile. I understand that these profiles can be useful, but they can also be a sole reason not to use Mozilla. If it is just you, maybe what you are looking for is Ctrl-N (New window) or (even better) Ctrl-T (new Tab) ;-) The mozilla port installs a wrapper script at /usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla that only launches mozilla the first time it is called, and after that passes commands to the running instance. Hmm... yup. I am pretty sure that is what I am using. I updated to 1.1 soon after it came out, maybe I should try the latest version of the port.

Re: Spontaneous 4.7-S reboots when using a Serial over USB adapter
I have noticed that if I disconnect the serial port from my usb to serial adapter and leave the dongle in(Aten International Serial adapter, SiS 5571 usb controller), my machine will reset as soon as I [Attempt to] send data from the usb side.

I got my first good clue after adding level 15 logging to see an 80-sec delay between MUA-launched sendmail and the MTA daemon. I then used level-99 logging to find The book is pretty useless. The reason the fix you are using works is because you have an IPv6 connection by default, and by explicitly specifying an IPv4 address, IPv4 is used. The issue here is the .in-addr.arpa. delegation for localhost is considered to be local. When the getpeername() happens, it gets an IPv6 address instead of an IPv4, and the the gethostbyaddr() hangs looking for ::1.in-addr.arpa., but has no problem finding 1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa.. You can fix this by disabling the DNS cross-check in the file sendmail.cf, and by getting rid of the peer name lookup in the loopback case. What you did with the IPv4 just took advanatage of the fact that the in-addr.arpa. IPv4 delegations existed, when the IPv6 loopback address ones did not. Is there a quick way to disable IPv6? While I figure that out or rebuild my kernel, I got a quick fix by changing, in my submit.mc, this FEATURE(`msp') to this FEATURE(`msp',`[127.0.0.1]') This isn't the correct fix. The correct fix is to add an IPv6 address and in-addr.arap. delegation for the loopback in your local DNS. As far as the HoldExpensive I recommended, the way you stated the problem seemed to indicate that it was a failure to connect, not a failure to validate a connection was going through. In general, ou want to queue up any mail that can bring up a link, if your link is transiently connected, and then control the link with a seperate queue interval. The other DNS statements I made were to ensure that the interface did not end up bouncing up when sendmail was started, for local mail delivery, or for remote mail delivery, outside the administratively controlled queueing intervals (which could be on the order of seconds, if you wanted). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Hi Keith - Probably should keep the same thread going - I almost missed your reply on this - plus people use the archives to help solve issues :) I still think it's a permissions issue, but we can check a few other things as well. What's the output of this command? $ps -aux | grep -i 'qmail-lspawn' On my system, this is what I get: nostromo:[~] ps -aux | grep -i 'qmail-lspawn' root 164 0.0 0.2 892 196 con- I 6Dec02 0:01.20 qmail-lspawn ./Maildir/ Notice the preceding . and the trailing / on the Maildir - do you see the same thing? If not, check your rc file in /var/qmail - it should have your delivery method (or, if your directions call for it, it may be in a file called defaultdelivery in the /var/qmail/controls directory). I know that Matt has made the install simple by making allot of perl scripts - so check in both places. It's common to miss the last / or the . in the command.

Hi Fuzzy, :)
Since you are running sendmail 8.12.6, I strongly recommend using milter. Of
course, you could also do a quick-and-dirty hack with a macro:
HSubject: $Check_Subject
D{MPat}XXX templates
D{MMsg}Go away, please.
SCheck_Subject
R${MPat} $* $#error $: 553 ${MMsg}
Something like that. :)

Mysterious problem with ldconfig and ld
This may be a very simple fix, but so far I've found no solution. Just installed expat-1.95.5 in a FreeBSD 4.4 machine. The install went fine, and I verified that ldconfig had picked up the library: host# ldconfig -r | grep expat 73:-lexpat.4 = /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4 However, I need to install other packages that require the expat library, and the configuration fails stating that the expat library cannot be found. In fact, just a simple test fails: host# ld -lexpat /usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lexpat I made sure any previous installations of expat were nuked and all files deleted. And the /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4 does exist: higherinnovation# ll /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 294728 Jan 3 19:44 /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4 If ldconfig has an entry for the library and is pointing correctly, what is the problem? Maybe I've just been staring at this for too long.

To me, this is just a list of sites whose admins have neglected to perform the necessary upgrade-maintenances, seemingly for almost three years even. To me, this is just a list of potentially vulnerable sites. Yeah, I've always felt the same way. If you're making runtime changes to your systems without testing that they restart properly, you're asking for disaster sooner or later; especially as you stack update upon update. If you're not performing updates at all, you have other issues. What's really significant is the (lowest) number of *unscheduled* restarts; unfortunately, that's not easily posted on a scoreboard.

Re: Mysterious problem with ldconfig and ld
Hmmm, I guess I just assumed that since ldconfig had cached the absolute path to the library, ld would not need to know the library path as well, but for some reason it did. What ultimately fixed the problem was hardcoding the -L /usr/local/lib in the configure script, since it refused to pick up that directory any other way. Thanks for your help. As a point of curiosity, I'd still like to know why ld would still need the -L /usr/local/lib if the full path to the library is already in the cache? -- Justin Hopper [EMAIL PROTECTED] UNIX Systems Engineer http://www.spry.com ---BeginMessage--- This may be a very simple fix, but so far I've found no solution.
