There is a article suitable for this topic: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/java-tomcat/index .html This is really fairly rediculous; is this the native FBSD JDK: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/java-tomcat/x35.htm l ? Why the dependancy on the Linux JDK? Why bother with a native JDK if you need the Linux one, anyway, and can run it instead (via the already-required Linux compatibility)? You need a linux JDK to do the first time installation of the native JDK -- both for jdk13 and jdk14. Once you've got a native jdk compiled and installed, you can pkg_delete the linux jdk, and use the native jdk to compile updated versions of itself (via the NATIVE_BOOTSTRAP=yes make flag). One of the really annoying things about java is that you can't compile and install JDK 1.4.1 using any flavour of JDK 1.3.1, so if you want both JDK versions, you've got to go through the whole install process from scratch each time. You need linux-compat as one of the linux JDK's dependencies. Once you have dispensed with the linux JDK you could probably dispense with the whole linux compat stuff as well. The native JDK works just fine without. On the other hand, if you've got a whole row of machines to install jdk's on, so long as you aren't in any sense publishing an unauthorized-by-Sun JDK, there's nothing to stop you going through the download, install linux jdk, download, compile, install native jdk rigmarole on just one of the machines, and then build your own package of the native jdk to install on the other boxes.

mixed files streams / nfs client cacheing
Hi,
We run a NetApp F840 filer with a 350GB volume which is mounted by our FreeBSD
4.x clients using NFSv3.
Today it seems that two fopen() calls for the same file on that mounted volume
yielded file streams associated with two different files.
Two different processes on the same host, run at approximately the same time
(although not concurrently) seem to have got FILE *streams mixed up. Each
process chdir()s to a different directory on the mounted volume, readdir()s and
then operates on the files using the relative path, rather than an absolute
path to the file.
The simplified chain of events was:
Process 5453 (starts at 19:09:46 ends at 19:09:48):
- File A is stat()'d by process only
Process 5592 (starts at 19:10:02 ends at 19:11:41):
- File B is stat()'d
- File B is fopen()'d
- Contents is read with fgets()
(the contents read at this stage, is actually the contents of File A,
not File B)
- File B is fclose()'d
- [other operations are performed]
- File B is fopen()'d again and the contents parsed for a unique token
(this time, the contents relates to File B and the correct unique token
is found. This token was *not* read when the file was previously
opened)
- File B is fclose()'d and unlink()'d
File A and File B are in different directories on the volume.
The unique token is used in logs to provide an audit trail. It is logged when
the file is written and when it is unlinked. The net result of the events
described was that process 5592 read the contents of the wrong file, before
unlinking the correct one; effectively the contents of File B were lost.
Given that the two processes were executed within twenty seconds of one
another, I wondered if some NFS caching either on the server or client side was
causing this behaviour. The client in question was running 4.6-STABLE as at Jul
17 2002.
Does it seem plausible that sys/nfs may have cached File A's information and
associated stream B with it in error? I've had a cursory look at CVS commits
relating to NFS since July 2002 in the 4-RELENG tree, but I admit to not being
an expert in this area and didn't spot anything.
I have a case open with NetApp in case this could be attributed to an error on
the filer, such as an inconsistent filesystem, although I've not yet heard
anything back.
I don't think this behaviour will be easily reproducible as the cluster causes
around 3000 NFS operations per second on average each day, and this sort of
behaviour has only been brought to my attention twice in the last month.
I have implemented a little sanity check after fopen to check that the inode
associated with the file is the same as the inode of the file associated with
the stream before proceeding, but this may not help if file credentials are
being incorrectly cached on the NFS client. Still, it can't do much harm to do
the check.
Pseudocode without error checking:
FILE *f;
struct stat ssb, fsb;
f = fopen(filename, r);
stat(fn, ssb);
fstat(fileno(f), fsb);
if (ssb.st_ino != fsb.st_ino) {
/* report inconsistency error */
}
If there's further information that I can provide to help make sense of this
turn of events I would be glad to provide it.
Cheers,
Ollie

My question : does softupdate slow down disk writes ? What you *really* want to do is put the disk cache on a second disk. It's the only game in town for Squid. I mounted a disk as /cache and told squid to use that for its cache, keeping its logs under /var on the first disk.

I have to reformat the disk this summer when things are quieter, and I can get away with a smaller disk cache on the system disk. At the moment, with the above tunefs settings, I'm using around 3-4% more available i-nodes than file blocks used as per df -i output. I'm not sure how that translates to specifying the number of i-nodes when I reformat the disk.

Alias on loopback interface???
Hi folks. I'd appreciate any comments on the pros and cons of configuring an alias IP on the loopback interface. I've tried it and it works OK, but perhaps there are repercussions that have not occurred to me. Why? Well I have a number of BSD gateways, each of which has numerous interfaces, and I am forever confusing myself about which IP address really identifies that box. I am planning to set assign each box a unique IP for my internal admin purposes, but then got to wondering which interface is most suitable to carry this new alias. That's when I though - Hey - why not use lo0 ? I do run ipf/ipnat and ipfw/DUMMYNET on many of these. Clearly I will need to make provision for this unusual traffic on the lo0 interface too. Of course, the IPs I intend using will be RFC1918 compliant private addresses. Thanks for any comments.

Device probing
Hi, I am trying to port the Linux i810 DRI kernel module to FreeBSD and am having some difficulty recognising that the device is present in the system. As I understand it, the list of unattached devices is passed to the probe method of a PCI kernel module so that the module can decide whether it is one that it supports. Is it possible to attach to an already attached device? The reason that I ask this is that a test module which looks for my i815 graphics card is able to find it if the AGP kernel module is not loaded, but if the AGP module is already loaded it can't. I have tried RTFMing, but I'm not sure that I'm even looking in the right place. I am running on FreeBSD 4.8 on a Pentium 3. Any assistance or advice will be most welcome.

You don't offer any source code, but people are often gotcha'd by the
fact that FreeBSD really means must be zero when it describes spare
entries in a sockstat as MBZ. Linux doesn't care.
If you have a
struct sockaddr_in a;
try changing it to
struct sockaddr_in a = {};
- C semantics for structure initialisation mean that unspecified fields
are set to zero.

Re: DPMS not working
Guy, I won't help much solve the problem. All I want to say, is that I see the same thing on my system (FreeBSD 4.8 with up-to-date-from-ports Xfree and other software). I have a regular monitor, SamSung SyncMaster 20GLsi. Indeed it only blanks. When I do xset dpms force off in my X-display, nothing happens. I vaguely remember it used to work in the past (when my OS was also Linux, instead of FreeBSD). However, when I go elsewhere, e.g. ctrl-Alt-F1 text screen, do a setenv DISPLAY my-X-display and then repeat the xset command above, xset q says Monitor is Off. Hmmm, but I'm on the same monitor, which is on !?!? My wild guess is, that this may be broken with recent Xfree 4.3.0. Or is only XFree broken in the FreeBSD ports collection? A wrong FreeBSD patch?

RE: spamass-milter questions
I use mimedefang and get this error when it is not running. Its my understanding that the definition in your .mc file is to tell sendmail where to look to get a pid for the milter so that it can pipe a message through it. The milter needs to be started before sendmail. Try doing the following: #killall sendmail #spamass-milter -p var/run/spamass-milter.sock -f #sendmail -bd Check your log and see what you've got... If that didn't work, you may have a permission problem on a related file or folder. As far as deleting messages if they are spam, with spamass, it looks like there is a patch available to redirect messages to a different folder. I'm assuming that you could hack that up a bit and send it to /dev/null, but I haven't really looked at the patch. I would suggest going to spamass home page at: http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/spamass-milt/ and browse through there support forums. The easiest way I have used spamassassin for deleting or saving email to a users folder is with procmail. You can send it to a folder in the users home dir. named accordingly, or straight to /dev/null. I wouldn't suggest this route on a high volume mail server though. If you go this route, *Make sure you read about the procmail bug that will corrupt the mail file by removing the 'F' from the first 'From' line of the message. There is however a simple fix for this. Mimedefang works awesome. Not only do you get the Spam filtering but you also get an antivirus scanning as well. Plus the mailling lists are very informational, and that is a big PLUS!! Let me know if you want to go either of the other two routes and I can help you out further with those as I have a first hand experience with them. Hope this helps you out. DEATH TO SPAM!!!

How can I automatically delete messages that gets the X-Spam: Yes flag set? I want to do this for messages I forward to other server etc. Ie. virtusertable: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's quite tricky to do that for just some of the e-mail passing through your system. You can tell spamass-milter to bounce e-mail if it scores more than a certain amount using the '-r nn' flag, which is good for getting rid of the most egregious spams. However that filtering occurs with all of the e-mail passing through your system, including stuff you're sending out. The problem with spamass-milter is that it's an input mail filter (input from the p.o.v. of the sendmail MTA process), and so doesn't have the natural connection to the user receiving the mail (hence the ability to eg. look up preferences in the user's home dir or the like) that a delivery filter would. There are some hacks with the '-u' option, but they can't distinguish local and remote addresses that happen to have the same username, they don't deal very well with delivery to multiple recipients and I don't think they cope very well if you use genericstable to make your e-mail address different from your login name. Probably your best bet is to install something like procmail as your local delivery agent on the system where the mail gets finally delivered. You can send the objectionable stuff to /dev/null very readily that way. Even so, that won't save you the bandwidth required to relay the spam from one of your mail servers to the other. One thing I've found beneficial when running spamass-milter is to make the spamd process it passes all the messages to run as a different user than root/nobody. This permits spamd and spamass-milter to use the auto-whitelist and bayesian matching filters -- these require write access to a chunk of disk space in order to keep previous results. I chose 'mailnull' as the UID to use as parts of the mail system already run as that. Since mailnull uses /var/spool/mqueue as it's home dir I used the '--virtual-config-dir' option to get spamd to keep it's working files in a different directory: spamd -a -c -u mailnull --virtual-config-dir=/var/spamassassin/%u -d Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

problem with hardware raid and freebsd
I have a Mylex AcceleRAID 160 with 2x 72GB U160 scsi harddrives. I had setup a RAID 1 with the raid card on the two drives, I installed freebsd on the drives without a problem, however when I start freebsd back up both hd lights are solid as if they're working like crazy. I then took the primary drive out and the system still ran without a problem so I knew that the raid was working. But then when I put the drive back in for the drives to sync back up both hd lights went off and I got a kernel timeout error on the mylex card. Any suggestions? I'm using FreeBSD 4.8. If I upgrade to FreeBSD 5.1 would it fix this? I'm also willing to go to OpenBSD if that will fix the problem since I have experience in OpenBSD.

SpeedTouch 330 USB ADSL Modem
I have a SpeedTouch 330 USB ADSL modem which I am trying to connect to Qwest's ADSL (PPPoA). I am running FreeBSD 4.2, and all I can find in the docs is support for a SpeedTouch USB, not the 330. Though, on the SpeedTouch website, it says it supports Linux, which means that somebody has most likely ported it to FreeBSD. Anyway, I tried the instructions in the handbook for the Alcatel Speed Touch USB and it seems that everything is fine except for the firmware that you download off of the SpeedTouch website. I am expecting to download speedmgmt.tar.gz, and they just have a zip file binary that extracts into 2 binary files that the Makefile doesn't recognize.

NAT Dropping Internal Connection
I have a P-200 running 4.8-STABLE running as a NAT box at home. It runs well, except that periodically it will drop it's connection on the internal side of the network. The external interface still works, but the internal machines can't ping the NAT box at all and the NAT box can't ping the internal machines. I've looked through the mailing lists and google for hints why this might be happening, but I can't find anything. /var/log/messages also reveals nothing. Here are the relevant kernel options: options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT options IPDIVERT options IPFILTER options IPSTEALTH options RANDOM_IP_ID options TCP_DROP_SYNFIN Would any of those cause the problem, or is there a kernel option that I'm accidentally leaving off?

devfs and umass devices
I just upgraded to 5.1-RELEASE last night. I have a Jungsoft Nexdisk USB memory stick that is being successfully recognized. Since I want the memory stick to be usable by users of group operator, I need the /dev/da0s1 device to be mode 0664. Then they can mount the device on one of their own directories (via vfs.usermount=1). Under 5.0, I used rc.devfs to add a ruleset to devfs using the following commands. This worked fine: ruleset 99 rule add path da0s1 mode 664 rule -s 99 applyset Under 5.1 I tried doing a similar action with devfs.conf: permda0s1 0664 This does not work, and after looking over rc.d/devfs, I realized that this only works for devices present at boot time, and not for umass devices inserted later. Is there an accepted means of adding a ruleset using the new rc system? Is there another way of doing what I want? I understand that rc.devfs is deprecated, so I don't really want to use it unless I have to.

(noperiph:sym0:0:-1:-1):SCSI BUS reset delivered. -- HP NetserverLH3r
Ok i fixed my subject a bit. Well I've tried FreeBSD (4.4, 4.8, 5.0), SuSE Linux 8.1, Redhat 9.0. All these operating systems fail to detect the hdd and when trying to load the scsi drivers for it it gives timeout errors (redhat suse). FreeBSD gives: (noperiph:sym0:0:-1:-1):SCSI BUS reset delivered. (noperiph:sym1:0:-1:-1):SCSI BUS reset delivered. This made me think that it might be a problem with the hardware configuration. I've got two exactly the same machines. Both give exactly the same error. I changed the scsi configuration on one machine. Trying different settings. No change. (except for the few times where my changes disabled the hdd and it couldn't find any OS). I installed the FreeBSD putting the drives into another HP server (which btw also happens to be a Netserver LH3r), and putting them back afterwards. Booting of the cd gives the same error. What does the error: (noperiph:sym0:0:-1:-1):SCSI BUS reset delivered actually mean ? What is FreeBSD actually complaining about ? I would assume that these HP servers (we have inhereted a few of them) would use the same type of hardware. The server I'm trying to install this on is a HP cluster server which has an external Raid Storage (which is currently disconnected from the servers). The servers themselves are HP Netserver LH3r's. The standalone server I used to do the install on is also a HP Netserver LH3r. The only noticeable difference between the standalone server and the server in the cluster is that the standalone server has a single processor and the cluster servers are dual processor. I've removed the SCSI card which is used to connect the server to the external Raid Storage and the installation still gives the same error. Now I could start to think that the hardware might be busted, but these servers were still running Redhat 7.1 a few days ago. If I want to try using the NCR driver (mentioned below), How would I go about doing that ? What else could I try. Maybe if I understood the error((noperiph:sym0:0:-1:-1):SCSI BUS reset delivered) a little better, I could try a few other things. hints/tips/anything appreciated. Another weird thing I noticed: - While another guy was installing FreeBSD on an HP pizzabox he also got this error: (noperiph:sym0:0:-1:-1):SCSI BUS reset delivered, but it continued to boot and he was able to install the box. hm ? e.

RE: Directory permissions for majordomo

Re: Need a little help with a proof of concept cgi.
Dragoncrest wrote: hi all. I've got a little proof of concept idea I want to do and I was looking to get some advice from some of the CGI experts on this list to help me with it. What I want to do is simple. I have like 3 users I want to track and retrieve the following stats on. 1. Total number of total messages received since XX date @ xx time. (since last clearing of counter) 2. Total number of messages filtered as spam. 3. Total number of messages filtered as viruses. I'm sure that there has to be a way to do a very simple cgi script that will be able to be called each time an email is received and after it is sorted so as to increment the individual counters related to each of the sorting criteria. Then when someone loads the cgi script via a Unclear on the concept. I think you want to separate the tallying of stats from the display. The stats can be kept up to date via procmail recipes, content filtering or logfile tailing. That happens all the time. When someone hits your CGI script, you only have to retrieve the statistics, whether they be from a flat file, a DBM file or a database table, and format the results as you see fit. This way you can also produce a test browser that works from the command line. web browser off your web server they can see the stats for each user and clear the counters/mailboxes if necessary. The stats would be my biggest concern. I'm no huge cgi expert and I also figured that this might be useful for a lot of other people in some form so I'm sharing the idea in hopes that those of you with more experience with CGI might be able to come up with a working cgi script. I don't think it will be anything huge, but I'm unsure where to start. Thanks for the input everyone! :) First off, start gathering your stats. That has nothing to do with CGI, and will probably present enough challenges as it is to keep you busy for a while. You might also want to look at packages that do this sort of thing already, like mailgraph. (But otherwise your idea sounds like an excellent learning opportunity).

contigmalloc1 panic on install
I've recently tried to install both 5.1 Release and 4.8 Release on a Toshiba laptop and I get this error: panic: contigmalloc1: size must not be 0 during boot up (see full boot text below). 4.8 will actually install fully before giving this error, but 5.1 won't even get that far. From doing some reading it seems to be an ACPI error but with 5.1 the option to boot with ACPI disabled gives the same result. Possibly it is an AGP error since that is the last line before the panic (see below). I'd appreciate any pointers, though buying a new laptop may be in order :) Please reply to my e-mail address as I am not on this list.

Re: contigmalloc1 panic on install
The laptop has a Trident CyberBlade Ai1 chipset, 8Mb RAM. If I go through the 4.8 Installation from the CD (which goes smoothly until I reboot), if I try to set up X using the graphical display the system locks up hard. That may be a driver issue or it may be related to the contigmalloc1 panic associated with the AGP. But this is easy enough to avoid to just complete a base install - I will attempt to get into single user mode and compile a debug kernel and see if I can give you some more detailed data.

swap not being mounted (or so I think)
I am running 5.0 Release on an i386 Intel system. I have 256MB ram and in /etc/fstab swap is called out for 492MB. How can I tell if this is mounted and in use? Mount does not indicate swap (/da0s1b) is mounted. I ask, as I cannot use dump to backup my raid. My raid is /dev/vinum/raid and mounted at /raid. When I try to dump either /dev/vinum/raid or /raid, the system panics and halts. I am thinking the dump is bombing due to lack of swap space. I was able to dump previously, until I added the raid. The raid is (4) 9GB SCSI drives on the second SCSI controller while the boot drive is /da0 on the first SCSI controller. Both controllers are on-board. The first dump encounter left the system in a single user state with all file systems requiring manual fsck. After doing such, I was able to go to multi-user mode. The raid is back and visible through the network. Just very concerned about the tape (dump) not being able to run.

To the best of my knowledge this is correct. The root partition is on da0s1a. What am I missing? Install root partition as UFS1 rather than default UFS2. If 5.1 still doesn't work, try 4-STABLE.

Owing to the need of purchasing a supported video-card before it's too late for my 4.6.2, I would like to know if the X Window System driver can run fine or not the ATI 8500. I have noticed the driver is not listed in the 'sysinstall' tool. If I choose 'ati' using xf86config or editing /etc/X11/XF86Config, would the card work as well as a Matrox 550 one? You would actually want the radeon driver, not the ati one. http://www.xfree86.org/4.3.0/radeon.4.html http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/index.html I've never personally used one, but it seems like it ought to work. -Will Should do 2D fine. The latest Radeon I recall seeing 3D acceleration for in X is the 7500, so the OP may have to wait a bit for 3D to happen.

Need a little help with a proof of concept cgi.
hi all. I've got a little proof of concept idea I want to do and I was looking to get some advice from some of the CGI experts on this list to help me with it. What I want to do is simple. I have like 3 users I want to track and retrieve the following stats on. 1. Total number of total messages received since XX date @ xx time. (since last clearing of counter) 2. Total number of messages filtered as spam. 3. Total number of messages filtered as viruses. I'm sure that there has to be a way to do a very simple cgi script that will be able to be called each time an email is received and after it is sorted so as to increment the individual counters related to each of the sorting criteria. Then when someone loads the cgi script via a web browser off your web server they can see the stats for each user and clear the counters/mailboxes if necessary. The stats would be my biggest concern. I'm no huge cgi expert and I also figured that this might be useful for a lot of other people in some form so I'm sharing the idea in hopes that those of you with more experience with CGI might be able to come up with a working cgi script. I don't think it will be anything huge, but I'm unsure where to start. Thanks for the input everyone! :) ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Questions about bootable raid 1 using atacontrol.
Hi, I have a server running 4.8 on a single disk. I'd like to set it up to mirror and be bootable. Killer performance isn't critical, but maximal flexibility to frankenstein it together from spare parts is. So, I'm shying away from hardware raids, and even the pseudo-hardware raids. I'd like to just stuff two ata drives in there and use atacontrol to set them up. I gather that I can't just cram a second disk into the existing system, rather I'll have to do dumps to somewhere, set up a raid, disklabel/newfs, then restore the dumps onto the raid. Is that an accurate summary. Once it's running, how do I recover if/when a disk pukes. It sounds like atacontrol's rebuild command only works w/ real controllers. Do I need to boot from a cd and then dd onto the new disk, or??? Do I need to add the new disk into the raid somehow?

Help: can't send email from my box.
Hi, all I have tried below echo this is my testing email | mail -s 1st mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] but no luck. /var/log/maillog show me that [EMAIL PROTECTED], ctladdr=pjn (1001/1001), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30040, relay=localhost.mytestdomain.com [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by localhost.mytestdomain.com My question are 1. Is it possible for sending emails from the host that hasn't run sendmail on it. 2. It seem mail try to connect SMTP on localhost.mytestdomain.com. If I want mail connect to SMTP on the remote host (@mydomain.com's mail server), or say I want to change my outgoing mail host. How can I do this ?

Thanks in advance, 1) You will need to set up sendmail as submit-only on your box. Look at /etc/mail/freebsd.submit.mc and man rc.sendmail 2) You need to set up sendmail to use another mail server instead of localhost.

FBSD 4.8-STABLE and S/Key
Heya Folks; I just tried to get s/key support working, I read the hand book and all it shows is using keyinit as the users to enable there one time passwords, and then when I login or ftp/etc, it shows the s/key support line. But the password's that keyinit generates do not work? Any ideas? I can not login at all via the s/key password(s). Thanks. - Jason L.
