5.25 Floppy

2003-02-07 Thread northern snowfall
Morning, all;
I'm trying to get a Mitsumi D509V3 1.2MB 5.25 floppy drive
to work on FreeBSD 4.2.6. The operating system reports the drive
is available and definitely makes contact with the drive (visual
confirmation: LED). The issue is during read/write from the
drive. Error message:
fd0c: hard error reading fsbn 0 (No status)
I have the proper drive type set in the BIOS. FreeBSD seems to
agree according to the dmesg:
fd0: 1200-KB 5.25 drive on fdc0 drive 0
I've been doing simple read tests using:
dd if=/dev/fd0 count=1 bs=512 | hexdump ;
Any suggestions?
Don

have you tried using:

I think 1.2MB is the normal size for a 5.25 dual sided floppy.

that you 
can edit /etc/fstab (test with mount if it is mounted). Also you could use
the 
Live-CD-ROM (disk 2) with the Fixit-Console, then do fsck and/or mount

1) Are true bitmapped graphical consoles possible in freebsd, I mean at
least like the resolution of the Vesafb driver in Linux? (Something like 16,
24 or even 32bpp with 1280x1024 screen resolutions)

xftree (part of the xfce window manager/desktop) has a Browse

if it does then your converter might not be functioning correct. Else i

  Hello
  
  I installed a VPN connecting 3 sites together using IPSEC and Racoon
 on Free BSD. Each site
   has a FBSD gateway with a LAN. The sites are interconnected with
 Frame relay links. However
   occasionally these links go down, thereby cutting the connections
 and so the tunnels become
   inactive.
  
  The problem am facing is that whenever the links come back up, racoon
 does not auto negotiate
   to reactivate the tunnels what could I be doing wron ? I always have
 to restart racoon manually.
  
  Whats the way forward for me ? Or is it the normal behaviour of FBSD
 ?
 
 I don't know if the behaviour is normal or not.
 
 But there's a port somewhere that I used a few years ago to solve a
 similar problem.  I looked,
 but I can't remember the name, and now I can't find it (I'm hoping
 someone will read this
 message and know what I'm talking about, thus providing the answer).
 
 Anyway, this port was a simple program that ran as a daemon and
 monitored network status, when
 it saw an interface go down, or a host disappear (all configurable) it
 would run a script of
 your choosing.  It would then run a different script when the host
 became available again.
 We used it for a similar situation (wireless LAN would drop frequently)
 and it worked
 wonderfully.
 
 Hope you can find it, or someone knows the port I'm talking about.

What's the best way to make certain I have removed all traces of lp* from

_remove_ existing stuff, right?

suppose to be any more different than if they were compiled into the the 
kernel using the config file.

But then again, I'm not an expert with the kernel either...

 Suprise! It now works.

 So why doesn't it work with the KLMs?

well as I understand it the default kernel doesn't have support for sound, 
so loading the module without kernel support does not work.
I'm not exactly sure but I believe that is it. Someone with more kernel 
knowledge may know better than I.

I thought that was the newer ones.  Weren't the old style 5.25s 640K?
It's been so long . . .

Where the heck did you even find a working one?  

Around the house. We have three...


Even the 3.5s are
pretty much beyond usefulness for me now that the net is everywhere
and the CDRWs are so easy and cheap, but those 5.25s would be pretty
interesting for nostalgia.


Nostalgia, sure... but, hacking an 8086 boot disk just to access an even 
more
ancient hard disk with an original 70s FORTRAN compiler and libraries?
Much cooler.

Either way, I'll bet Daxbert's advice will at least set you in the
right direction.

Good luck.


I appreciate the luck =) But, I tried that before posting to the lists. 
No such
luck in that direction. The driver plumbs the fd?.* interface along 
with the
fd? interface based on values probed from the CMOS, so, its basically a
namespace bind on static size media.

 Inspirons 8200 are great, but they weigh so much. If you are going to use it
 at your work maybe you don't mind that the laptop weigh four-five kg.

If you like the Dells for FreeBSD, and like the keyboards, you should 
be aware that Dell uses that keyboard across quite a few notebooks, not 
all of them as heavy as the 8200.  The Inspiron 4150 is a lighter 
machine, due to having a 1 inch smaller display and only two spindles 
(the 8200 has three, counting the module bay).  On the Latitude side 
the C840 is essentially the same machine as the 8200, while the C510, 
C610 and C640 have the same base as the Inspiron 4150.  The primary 
differences between Latitude and Inspiron versions are that Inspiron 
emphasizes style, while Latitude works with the broader range of 
Latitude docks.  Note that the 8200/C840 can support a CAD-capable 
graphics card and has a really nice large display, if that's important 
to you and you can stand the weight.  We do run mechanical CAD on our 
C800s and C810s.

 Are all it's devices (screen network, modem et all) well supported under
 FreeBSD?

I have had an 8200 since April last year, hard drive went on it
last week so I had to re-install 4.7 from scratch. I use the built in ethernet
(xl0) and have used the docking station ethernet (xl1). I didn't get the 
built in modem, since it was a WINMODEM. I mistakenly bought a Cardbus 
PCMCIA modem, so I couldn't use that. I ended up with an IBM X-jack PCMCIA
from my old Thinkpad. I got it with the NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go card in it.
The first incarnation I used the nv drivers, this time around I'm using the
Nvidia supplied drivers. I'm running in 1400x1050 with 122 pixel clock,
64.89 H sync, 59.98 V sync. The only problem I seem to have is with the mouse.
I keep getting :

Feb  6 21:10:56 himinbjorg /kernel: psmintr: out of sync (00c0 != ).
Feb  6 21:10:56 himinbjorg /kernel: psmintr: discard a byte (1).

Feb  6 21:11:01 himinbjorg /kernel: psmintr: delay too long; resetting byte coun
t

and the mouse runs rampant and does nasty stuff. If anyone has a
suggestion. I tried a few things, still won't stop it.

Otherwise, besides the deep groove in my shoulder, I love this beast.

monochrome monitor

I have a monochrome monitor I'd like to plug
in to a pentium-based FBSD router.  This worked
fine on the old 386 computer it came from, but
now that the 386 is dead, I'd still like to
use it over a color monitor.  Pulling the VGA
card and replacing it with the mono card and
monitor does not work.  Any thoughts?  (I
didn't find anything useful in the handbook
or archives, but maybe I missed something.)

Thanks.  I put back the VGA monitor card and

Well, I just remember from the old days being able to choose between VGA, CGA, 
MGA??.  Where MGA usually referred to a Hercules or
other monochome adapter.

The stippling (sp?) may be due to the BIOS auto-detecting the video type.  It may very 
well detect Mono/MGA/something when the
monochome card is installed.

So, does your host boot, just without video suport?  Or does it sit there and beep at 
you as if there was no video card installed?

It booted and ran fine with only the mono card in there,
just no video.  With both cards now, the VGA works and
still no mono.  (Before today I only had the VGA in.)

I'm guessing either the BIOS does not handle mono, or
maybe just this mono card.  Thanks for your help so far

 Thanks.  I put back the VGA monitor card and

 the display type as VGA/CGA but stippled
 out, as it also stipples out the amount of

 There are other video related memory settings

 is not an option.  True??
 
 
  Well, I just remember from the old days being able to choose between VGA, CGA,

  other monochome adapter.
 
  The stippling (sp?) may be due to the BIOS auto-detecting the video type.  It may 
very well detect Mono/MGA/something when the
  monochome card is installed.
 
  So, does your host boot, just without video suport?  Or does it sit there and beep 
at you as if there was no video card
installed?
 

 It booted and ran fine with only the mono card in there,
 just no video.  With both cards now, the VGA works and
 still no mono.  (Before today I only had the VGA in.)

 I'm guessing either the BIOS does not handle mono, or
 maybe just this mono card.  Thanks for your help so far
 and whatever other things you might suggest to look at,
 but it seems like a dead end at the moment.

I would suggest that you change your boot loader to use the serial console as default. 
 You'll still miss all of the BIOS POST
information which is being delivered to the non-working mono video, but at least 
you'll get everything after the initial boot blocks
are read.  That's presuming you have another host / dumb terminal to connect to the 
serial port.

MySQL Replication Script

2003-02-07 Thread Odhiambo Washington
hiya,

being a perl novice, I am wondering if someone has managed to use
one nifty script written by Matt Simmerson for mysql replication.

The script is here: 

http://matt.simerson.net/computing/sql/mysql_replicate_manager.pl

Problem is simple for me - it just refuses to take my commands

wash@ns2 - ./mysql_replicate_manager.pl -u root -p MYPASS -i

 MySQL Replication Manager 1.3.3     
   by Matt Simerson

DBI connect('database=mysql:host=localhost:port=3306','root',...) failed: Access 
denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using
password: NO) at ./mysql_replicate_manager.pl line 656
db connect failed: 


wash@ns2  - mysql --user=root --password=MYPASS
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 555723 to server version: 3.23.54-log

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql




Someone possibly sees what the issue is at line 656 ???


Thanks

point :

#define _write(fd, s, n) \
	__syscall(SYS_write, (int)(fd), (const void *)(s), (size_t)(n))

I'am not really familiar with the way FreeBSD handle interrupts. I like from 
any one of you to tell me what functions will be called next and in which 
files, till we get the string of the printf function argment displayed in 
the terminal.

Thank you very much for this hint with ACPI!

The values in the disklabel are not used anymore.  They were, way back
when disk latency was horrible and the OS needed to know things like
that to optimize writes, but that code has been removed or sommented
out for a long time.


It would be nice if this information could be removed from the disklabel.
I guess if that's not feasible, a notation in the documentation would be
nice (I was confused about this about a year ago).

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

  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

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

information  on  page  iv  (the  page  before  the  beginning  of  the Table of

errata for an older version.

You can get the current document in four forms:

The instructions on page ii (opposite the title  page)  tell  you  to  look  at
ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2  for  the  errata  list.   That's wrong.
Look at this list.

Pages 190 and 191

The description is not very clear about which text appears  when  booting  from
floppy  for  initial  install,  and  which  appears when booting normally.  The
procedure is very similar, but there are some differences.  Add  the  following
text after the heading Boot messages:

You'll  boot  your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot
from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system.  Later, after the  system
is  installed,  you'll boot from hard disk.  The procedure is almost identical,
so we'll look at both versions in the following examples.

Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with:

If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see:

Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter:

When you insert the MFS root floppy and press  Enter,  you  see  more  twirling
batons, then the UserConfig screen appears.

UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration


After  the  kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are
installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c  option  to  the
boot loader:

The  bottom  two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating
that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file

nfs_client_enable=YES   # This host is an NFS client (or NO).
nfs_server_enable=YES   # This host is an NFS server (or NO).


Page 265


The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver.   The
scsi  program  is  no  longer  available  in  FreeBSD  3.x.   Instead,  use the
camcontrol program.  Replace the text with:.

Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by  allocating  an
alternate sector for the data.  IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI
drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation.   Usually  it
is  turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not.  When installing a
new disk, you should check that the parameters  ARRE  (Auto  Read  Reallocation
Enable)  and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on.  For example,
to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter:

# camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3
# scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3

This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one  specified  in

Re: monochrome monitor

I have no manual for this (used) Acer Pentium 120.
The Acer web site does not appear to have schematics
or other MB information (that I could find).  And
looking at the MB I see nothing that leads me (a
non-tech) to think there's a VGA/MGA selector.
Anything particular writing or abbreviations I
might look for?  (Good thought.)

Long, long, ago, motherboards had a jumper on them, with one
position for monochrome, and another position for everything
else.  Either I missed it, or you didn't say what motherboard
you are using, but you might take a close look both at the 
docs and the board itself to see if there is such a jumper on
yours.

Depends where your windows is. Assuming its on another box, samba should
be able to do it; it can be both client and server. The win box should
be set up to sharing (in this case the win is the samba/netbios server
not the*nix!), for the CLI on your *NIX (samba client in this case) you
can use the smbclient program which is an ftp like interface to samba
shares(beit on a NIX or a Win box). Not sure if this is what you mean.


Not quite. I have samba on FreeBSD and would like to see the windows file 
on anothe machine on the Lan. I do have FreeBsd on another machine (this 
one) and I can mount the Windows files even on a FastTrack raid array(1) 
access, copy  write (if I remember right) files. But how to do the same 
from the *nix on the Lan?


I don't know cygwin (to be run from the win box I reckon; I think this
is more for when you want an X-in-a-window from a *NIX client onto a
Win box), never tried it.


Personally, I have never needed it as i have postgres  other stuff on the 
FreeBSD machine. :))

dhcpd subnets?

2003-02-07 Thread Paul Hoffman
Greetings again. I have a DSL connection with 32 addresses. My 
ifconfig line in rc.conf looks like:
ifconfig_tx0=inet a.b.c.130  netmask 255.255.255.224
defaultrouter=a.b.c.158

This works fine. I am trying to configure dhcpd (from the ports 
collection). My config file says:

default-lease-time 86400;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.224;
option routers a.b.c.158;
option domain-name-servers a.b.c.130;
ddns-update-style none;

subnet a.b.c.158 netmask 255.255.255.224 {
range a.b.c.150 a.b.c.157;
}

This gets the fatal startup error:

/etc/dhcpd.conf line 7: subnet a.b.c.158: bad subnet number/mask combination.
subnet a.b.c.158 netmask 255.255.255.224
 ^
Configuration file errors encountered -- exiting

This is a valid subnet, and it works just fine for everything else. 
What is dhcpd wanting?

That makefile is /usr/local/etc/cvsup/src/Makefile, I suspect.
At least, that's where you asked cvsup to put it.

 I simply moved /usr/local/bin in front of /usr/bin on in my .profile

You might also want to change /etc/manpath.config's search order for the

Otherwise man lpr will not give you the CUPS lpr man page ;)

Resize File-Backed vnode Device

2003-02-07 Thread Hans Zaunere

Fairly straight forward question I suppose.  I'm creating several file-backed
vnode devices on a single physical disklabel to support some jails.  If I
start the file at 1gb is it possible to increase the file without losing the
data within it?  Would growfs be safe to use?  Could I be so bold as to just
tack on 100mb of null chars at the end of the file (I would doubt it,
although it'd be nice).

My goal, is to be able to deliver jails, based on a filesystem that can
resize easily.  The physical disk is 80gb so I have the room; it's just a
matter of delegating it a easily manageable manner.   So far, using vnodes
seem to be my best bet, although I'd like to hear other ideas that people
have come up with.

Thanks,

What are these different memory figures in TOP?

2003-02-07 Thread Dan Delaney
Hello all.

Is there a full explanation somewhere of what EXACTLY those six memory 
usage figures mean that are displayed in 'top'? You know the ones: 
Active, Inact, Wired, Cache, Buf, Free. The man page for top doesn't 
explain them at all. What exactly is the difference between active 
and wired? Between cached and buffered? How do you read those 
values to determine whether you need more RAM?

Thanks.

  Morning, all;
  I'm trying to get a Mitsumi D509V3 1.2MB 5.25 floppy drive
  to work on FreeBSD 4.2.6.

Cool.  My father still has a 5.25 drive in production use - he has
large numbers of 5.25 disks containing old work, and maybe once a
year needs something off one of them.  Works fine on his W2k box.

 The operating system reports the drive
  is available and definitely makes contact with the drive (visual
  confirmation: LED). The issue is during read/write from the
  drive. Error message:
  fd0c: hard error reading fsbn 0 (No status)
  I have the proper drive type set in the BIOS. FreeBSD seems to
  agree according to the dmesg:
  fd0: 1200-KB 5.25 drive on fdc0 drive 0
  I've been doing simple read tests using:
  dd if=/dev/fd0 count=1 bs=512 | hexdump ;
  Any suggestions?

Drive might be broken, disk might be broken, disk might not be
formated, and finally make sure you know what kind of 5.25 both the
drive and the disk are. 8088/86 machines stated off with single sided 8
sector one @160k, then double sided 8 sector (320k), then single sided 9
sector (180k), then double sided 9 sector (360k).  That was the
standard.  AT machines (i.e. 286s and later 386s  486s) used 1.2Mb
5.25 disks.  These AT drives could read 360k PC disks (PC = 8086/88,
BTW) but if you wrote to one there was a very good chance it would never
be readable by a PC again, because the 1.2Mb AT drive had a read/write
head 1/3 of the size of the 360Kb PC drive, and often the mark it left
was too small to be read by larger PC heads.  For that reason I always
treated 360k disks as read-only media on 1.2Mb drives.

As other people have said, /dev/fd0.1200 and /dev/fd0.360 look like you
friends here.  Personally I don't bother compiling fd stuff into the
kernel any more.

Re: 5.25 Floppy

I thought that was the newer ones.  Weren't the old style 5.25s 640K?
It's been so long . . .

Where the heck did you even find a working one?  Even the 3.5s are
pretty much beyond usefulness for me now that the net is everywhere
and the CDRWs are so easy and cheap, but those 5.25s would be pretty
interesting for nostalgia.

Either way, I'll bet Daxbert's advice will at least set you in the
right direction.

Good luck.

 have you tried using:

 appreciate the zillions of posts by confused admins.

There was a long and heated debate around enabling sendmail when the idea of 
making the option tri-state came out as a reasonable compromise. Yes, it 
might have caused some confusion, but then again, so did the fact that 
sendmail_enable=NO did _not_ turn off sendmail... But for better or worse 
it's gone now, apparently because it was incompatible with rcNG.

720k are

Make Buildworld hanging - where to look

2003-02-07 Thread Tom Wiebe
Hi all,

Trying to get a FreeBSD box up and running, but I keep hanging randomly 
when building or installing world or kernel.

I've tried at least 8 times so far, initially using an NFS /usr/src 
containing releng_4. Thinking that I was having problems with my 
network card or something I've now been trying to simply buildworld and 
kernel from the source on the ISO of 4.7 release.

It proceeds fine for 10+ minutes, sometimes I've gotten all the way 
through to the installworld phase, and then the machine simply freezes 
up in the middle of the install. Other times it's quit just a minute or 
two into buildworld. No response at the console, no response to pings, 
nothing logged anywhere in /var/log/*, nothing printed to the console. 
Seems totally random and it seems to not want to tell me anything about 
what's happening.

I've checked the SCSI ID's on my drives, and everything _seems_ in 
order there, The machine was working fine before adding a new SCSI 
drive.

Here's an outline of the hardware:

	Intel Server board 440gx
	2x P-III 550 processors
	2x 512Mb ECC Dimms
	3x 9.1 MB Quantum V drives at ID's 2 4 and 8
	
I'm pretty sure it's a hardware problem, most likely with the scsi 
drives, but the Adaptec scsi manager on the board doesn't show any sign 
of SCSI problems. My next step is to run out and find a new SCSI Cable 
(Ultra 2 LVD), is there anything else I should look at first?

   Subject: Server locking hard -- A LOT!!!
  
  
   Hello.  I've recently faced a rather odd issue that I've never seen
   before.  I bought a new server (specs below), and I loaded it up with
   FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE (I know, I know, not for a production environment,
   but this is a personal server).  Now, whenever I get about 30
   simultaneous connections, the box just locks hard.  I tested all the
   hardware components (CPU, Memory, HD, NIC, etc.) and even bought new
   ones just to make sure and all end up with the same result.  I can never
   keep a decent uptime (never went past 2 days so far).  As soon as I get
   a mediocre http load (30 simul. connections), the box just locks hard.
   I built a debug kernel, I tried everything imaginable, and I have not
   found a solution whatsoever.  Everyone seems to be stumped by this.  I
   tried FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE, 4.7-STABLE, 5.0-RELEASE and 5.0-CURRENT on
   this box.  All give me the same result.  I checked everywhere for
   relevant logs to explain what is occuring, but had no such luck.  This
   is truly the million dollar question for me right now, because I have no
   idea why it would lock under such a petty load.  I'm not sure what to do
   to fix this issue, I've tried many different areas for support and
   haven't come up with anything as I stated earlier.  I'm not overclocking
   or anything if that's what you're wondering.  If anyone could assist me
   in any way shape or form to get this working, I would appreciate it very
   very much.  Also, if you e-mail back, I'm not subscribed to the lists,
   so could you please CC it to me.  In the past 4 hours, it has locked
   hard about 3 times because of a 28-34 connection load.

  I have seen things like this that are not software related at all but due to
  a faulty power supply.  Did you replace that when you went out and bought
  new hardware?  You might want to try and take off your CD-ROM and or the
  secondary HD.  This will cut back on your power usage and might be a good
  test.  If it still does it, get a new power supply that has enough juice.

 Well, I took off the CD-ROM drive, so now it's just the two HDs and a
 floppy drive.  We'll see if it was a power supply issue after all.
 
 Thanks

English, Chinese, and Latin.

Of course, that does depend on what you're going to use them for.

Because so many of the European languages are based on it. It's a good
foundation for learning portuguese, french or german. I believe
chinese fills that role for asian languages.

I don't need to have any latin knowledge to learn french, portuguese or
german. I could only guess you'ld learn latin to be able to read a
really old book that doesn't come translated.
