Subject: Samba and ADS Support PLEASE...
Is it necessary to modify the Makefile of the samba-devel port on FreeBSD in order
to build the package with ADS support? I am not very familiar with the syntax of a
Makefile, but I can not seem to find anything in the FreeBSD 5.1 samba-devel
Makefile that talks of OpenLDAP, a requirement to ADS support. If it is necessary
could some one help me out with this?
I have tried several times with still ADS support will not compile in. Also the
/usr/include/gssapi.h file must be removed before any make (even the just plain
make) on samba completes. I have tried it about 3 times with 3 fresh installs of
FreeBSD 5.1 and a cvsup. I think there is something wrong with
the samba port but I am too inexperienced to know for sure.
Has anyone else had this problem?
i had this problem to.
i've made some changes to the Makefile and added some more knobs.
i've send my changes to the port maintainer.
for anyone else who wants to use my modified version i've attached these
files.
Makefile replaces the original samba-devel/Makefile
pkg-plist replaces the original samba-devel/pkg-plist
patch-Makefile.in make wrepld buildable samba-devel/files/patch-Makefile.in
i will rewrite the whole Makefile and the pkg-plist again to get rid of
the user-definable path stuff.

My faux pas. I'm reading up a bit, but this one may be best left to Greg. Have you verified that the vinum module has loaded after boot? One other thing I just noticed, you didn't use setupstate in the volume line of your config file...did you do an init on the second plex/subdisk before you newfs'd and mounted the volume? not a faux pas for me!! as i am new to this and it could be anything, I did init the second plex before newfs'ing and mounting it, but I think that the auto mounting is less of a problem than the config not being read (or vinum not starting) with the reboot. If i can get that fixed, i think i will be well on my way to getting this solved... it doesn't look like the vinum kld is being loaded, since even with the vinum config gone, it should say something like no vinum drives found, vinum not loaded in dmesg (i think, please correct me if im wrong) i will investigate this furthar and report back. thanks for the help roland ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But I am not able to figure out how to add an entry to my /etc/fstab file so that it is automatically mounted on reboot. I have looked in the handbook and all it says is to add the proper entries. I simple do not know what entry to add. Looks like this question has been answered. 2 - On reboot, the vinum config is erased.

Since I was able to create and mount the RAID, I assume that the configuration would still be there on reboot, even thought it is not being mounted with fstab (see problem 1). I have tried this on several systems and have yet to be successful in having a vinum config survive reboot.

Re: can I install a port with a different (previous) version ?
typicaly what I will do is just fall back to the pacage available on the lattest CD set if it is available. I think portupgrade may have the ability to restore back the backed up version of the port.

Is there a way to put the proper atacontrol command in somewhere so that it will slow the first hdd (ad0) down to UDMA33? Perhaps a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d... but before it is run, ad0 will be UDMA66. Wherever you put an atacontrol command, ad0 will be UDMA66 before that (outside of modifying the kernel), which might cause some trouble. A solution might be to first set all drives into PIO (by adding hw.ata.ata_dma=0 in the loader config) and `atacontrol' them in rc.d to their speeds (both to UDMA33). This may cause the boot to be somewhat slower. Thank you! Marshall -- DoubleF Nondeterminism means never having to say you are wrong. pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

You have pretty much the right idea. I'd do the job something like
this:
i) Edit your /etc/fstab and comment out the line that mounts
/usr/home.
ii) Shutdown and remove the current ad3 drive. Add your new 8Gb
disk in it's place.
iii) Reboot to single user mode, mounting all of the partition from
ad0, much as you would for doing a {build,install}world cycle:
# fsck -p
# swapon -a
# mount -a
iv) Set up the fdisk(8) slice table on your new drive: presumably
you want the whole disk to be devoted to FreeBSD. This also
sets up the boot sector so that you can eventually boot from
the disk.
# fdisk -B -b /boot/mbr -I ad3
Once you're done, modulo the exact size/cylinders/heads/sectors
of the disk you should see output something like this:
# fdisk ad3

v) Set up FreeBSD partitions on your new drive using disklabel(8)
-- decide before hand what partitions and what sizes you want:
# disklabel -e ad3s1
This will pop you into an editor -- you need to add lines at
the end after where it says '8 partitions:' -- don't touch the
line for c:, but add lines for a: (/), b: (swap), e: (/usr), f:
(/var) etc. Set fstype to 4.2BSD (or swap for the swap
partition). Some calculation will be necessary here. Sizes are
given in numbers of sectors, which are usually 512bytes apiece.
Eventually you should end up with something that looks rather
like this:
#size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
a: 26214404.2BSD 1024 819216 # (Cyl.0 - 16*)
b: 2097152 262144 swap# (Cyl. 16*- 146*)
c: 716819670unused0 0 # (Cyl.0 - 4461*)
e: 262144 23592964.2BSD 1024 819216 # (Cyl. 146*- 163*)
f: 12582912 26214404.2BSD 1024 819216 # (Cyl. 163*- 946*)
g: 56477615 152043524.2BSD 1024 819216 # (Cyl. 946*- 4461*)
You need to fill in the first three columns -- you can fill in
the fsize, bsize and bps/cpg fields if you want, but the
newfs(8) command used in the next step will fill in the blanks
for you. The stuff after the '#' on each line is automatically
generated.
vi) Create filesystems on the new partitions using newfs(8). There
are any number of parameters to play with when creating
filesystems which is all very confusing. If you don't have a
specific need for a specially laid out FS, then just take the
defaults. These will be fine for general purpose filesystems
of the sort of size you'll be needing:
# newfs -v /dev/ad3s1a
using /usr/ports between jails
Hi: I want to share my /usr/ports between some jails. /usr/ports and jails are running on the same machine. AFAIK I have two options: 1. nfs (export /usr/ports through nfs) 2. mount_union: # mount_union /usr/ports /usr/jail/jail1/usr/ports Is there anyone using any of this options?

Re: Need some insight on error messages that I am getting.
snip Is there a way to put the proper atacontrol command in somewhere so that it will slow the first hdd (ad0) down to UDMA33? Perhaps a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d... but before it is run, ad0 will be UDMA66. Wherever you put an atacontrol command, ad0 will be UDMA66 before that (outside of modifying the kernel), which might cause some trouble. A solution might be to first set all drives into PIO (by adding hw.ata.ata_dma=0 in the loader config) and `atacontrol' them in rc.d to their speeds (both to UDMA33). This may cause the boot to be somewhat slower. Thanks! I will look into this. I appreciate the help in this matter!

So i am going to try to configure the ps2 mouse port. device /dev/psm0 port auto flags -z 4 After this i usually reboot the machine,(need to learn how to stop and start the moused from the command line ). Now weather i set the mouse up this way or using /stand/sysinstall, i get the same effect. If i move the mouse around in console mode i notice that it disappears while i am moving it and then reappears in its new position when i stop moving it. So when i startx i cannot follow where my mouse is at because of the blinking problem. This really [EMAIL PROTECTED] Now i notice if i disable acpi at startup the mouse works correctly in the console mode, but i loose the ability to use my usb ports(figures), and when i try to startx with acpi disabled my mouse is stuck in the top right corner jumping around. Finally I try to use the mouse in the usb port, so i configure the mouse such as (rc.conf) usb_enable=YES moused_port=/dev/ums0 //This Number Came From dmesg. moused_type=auto moused_enable=YES after a reboot i can c my mouse in console mode and it moves around, but an error occured during init of the rc.config file that reads something like cant open /dev/ums0, device busy. X will not run returns with an error something like no core pointer available. So I have no mouse available in new 5.x series.

Re: Trying to see website from the Internet
hi, In order to eliminate the router as a cause, I made a direct connection from the DSL to the computer (no router). But I wasn't able to reach the DSL modem page from my FreeBSD box. So I installed Apache on my Windows box and ran the line to it. I am able to see the running website from the ISP-assigned LAN in this case, but still not able to reach it from the ISP-assigned dynamic IP. This leads me to believe that the problem has nothing specific to do with settings on the FreeBSD box or the router. The Windows box has no firewall, so there's no issue of blocked ports, I guess. I keep thinking it's the ISP, since I don't really understand how requests could / or could not go from the dynamic IP to the ISP-assigned LAN IP without their router or whatever.

howto dissallow upgrade for specific port?
Howdy list, I have a port that I do NOT want to upgrade: python-2.2.2 If I do upgrade it, some of the software on my system will not work correctly.

Patchlevel 4 report.
Roberto de Iriarte writes: I could not help but notice the complaints about the difficulties to get native Java running on FreeBSD. For a change, i wanted to say just thanks for the excellent work, i've found the new patchlevel to be very stable (on libc_r and libkse) and excellent performing (especially on libkse) Sorry, but this is apples and oranges. I had to install jdk-1.4.1 as part of OpenOffice 1.1; having done so, I don't actually know that I'll _use_ any of the Java components. I am prepared to believe once installed Java works perfectly. But that's worth diddly if installing it takes dynamite, heavy machinery, and industrial epoxy* ... and there's no listed way to build OpenOffice without it. Don't get me wrong: I'm thankful for the work the maintainers have put in. And I have no problem agreeing to the licenses and downloading various tarballs. But having done so, I expect this to be as smooth as any other port build. Instead, it's been one of the least pleasant builds I've ever experienced and - yeah, I'm less than thrilled.

Once it happens, the machine reboots. I originally thought this could be due to heat from processors so I took measures to reduce heat. There are currently 2 fans pushing air into the case and 3 fans plus 1 blower pulling air out of the case. Each CPU has a new amd cpu fan with bearings and the temp is well within the limits of normal operation. I am at a loss for this and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on ways to fix / mitigate. Still sounds like some kind of hardware problem, because it runs fine as long as it isn't under pressure and fails in a different way each time. If it's always the same CPU, that may be a hint. Bad RAM is the most frequent culprit for such unpredictable problems, though. If you have the opportunity to disable SMP and try again (e.g., you have a GENERIC kernel around that matches your userland), that would be worth a shot. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: vinum concatenated raid setup problems - SOLVED
I see this has been solved, but i'll throw one more gotcha to watch for out there. Use of 'vinum saveconfig' is a good thing. From the vinum man page: saveconfig Save the current configuration to disk. Normally this is not necessary, since vinum automatically saves any change in configu- ration. If an error occurs on startup, updates will be disabled. When you reenable them with the setdaemon command, vinum does not automatically save the configuration to disk. Use this command to save the configuration. As I was learning to use vinum I made frequent mistakes, disabling updates, then built the system, rebooted, and nothing survived ;) Had to rtfm a couple of times before I caught that. Alvin Mike, Thanks for the pointers on the fstab file, they solved that part of the puzzle. (and trying to help with the other issues) Greg, Thanks for pointing me to the right part of the vinum manpage...it was indeed the simple fact that I was trying to build the configuration on disk's rather than partitions that was sabotaging the mission! ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No. I did a `configure MYKERNEL-K6;make depend;make; make install' just as mentioned in the on-line FreeBSD handbook. Why isn't the path something with /boot/kernel? Because it's the path of your kernel config file. The actual, compiled kernel is always in /boot/kernel, so it's not really mentioned. arp: Frequently I get this message on the first console: arplookup 213.84.240.105 failed: host is not on local network This means your network is configured strangely, although a lot of ISPs seem to think this is the way to do it. I searched the inter-net, but I did not found a satisfying answer. 213.84.240.105 is hanging on the inter-net, an FreeBSD has a local IP-adres. So why this arplookup? What causes this lookup? You have computers on your hub that have a network number that doesn't jive with the IP/netmask you've assigned to the network card. If you don't care, you can ignore the messages. All it means is that ARP was not able to turn the IP address into a MAC address.

usb pendrive problems
Howdy list, A co-worker of mine has a neat little usb pen drive. I set it up properly in /etc/usbd.conf with this entry: - # The entry below mounts Todd's Pendrive when the Pendrive is plugged in. # It then umount's the Pendrive when the device disappears. # device pendrive devname umass[0-9]+ attach sleep 1 /sbin/mount /home/todd/pendrive detach /sbin/umount -f /dev/da0s1 /home/todd/pendrive - And it's set up in fstab with this entry: - /dev/da0s1 /home/todd/pendrive msdosfs rw,noauto 0 0 - But, the problem with all of the above is that the detach command doesn't work because the device is already removed before it can run umount! Frequently, I've found myself with two pendrives mounted: - /dev/da0s1122M43M79M35%/usr/home/todd/pendrive /dev/da1s1122M43M79M35%/usr/home/todd/pendrive - But the first one is a ghost, and if either are umount'd, my kernel panics and my system reboots! Is there a way to reliably umount an already disconnected umass0 SCSI-2 device? Thanks! -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. === Last update $Date: 2003/03/09 22:09:31 $ 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, -newbies 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
The Complete FreeBSD: errata and addenda
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 O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The Complete FreeBSD has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor Installing and Running FreeBSD.

I called my ISP, they're not blocking inbound connections on port 80. lynx localhost always works on the web server. host howse.homeunix.net always resolves correctly. apachectl restart doesn't help.

The short answer is that most linux programs run at about the same speed under linux and FreeBSD. Running linux software on FreeBSD is also about the same speed as recompiling the source for FreeBSD native. This is what you'd expect, and this is _usually_ what you get. There are a few exceptions (all of which have nothing to do with the linux emulation, but which will still affect you). I should mention that I'm certainly not an expert--until the past few weeks, I hadn't used a BSD operating system in years. Also, I'm using FreeBSD 5.1 vs. various Mandrake versions, and (briefly) Redhat 6.2 and 8.1. But I can offer some observations from my (limited) experience. 1. Multimedia may be much slower on FreeBSD, if you have hardware for which acceleration is either non-existent or harder to get working on FreeBSD. On my ATI Rage, for example, I can't get DRI, or Xv, or vidix working on FreeBSD. This means that full-screen games, OpenGL apps, mplayer, etc. all run very slow on FreeBSD. If you don't have hardware for which this is an true, or don't plan to do much multimedia/gaming, this won't affect you; otherwise, it's a huge difference. 2. UFS seems to write significantly faster than ext3 in some cases. Things like squid proxies, mail servers, web browsers, GNOME programs that do too much gconf'ing, etc. seem noticeably faster in FreeBSD. This only matters if you spend a lot of time running apps that don't play well with ext3 (in which case you should be usin Reiser, XFS, or whatever's best for your usage in linux anyway). 3. FreeBSD's swapping may also be smarter or faster. Or maybe not. I know that, e.g., working with gigantic files in gimp seems to be a little faster than under linux, and the memory-leak bug in SMAC doesn't make the game slow to a crawl quite as quickly. This may be a consequence of /tmp, etc. being on UFS, or something completely different. 4. While running a similar set of services, FreeBSD may be using less background processing time. Or maybe not. I definitely see significantly lower CPU usage (idling under X, FreeBSD shows about 2-10% CPU, linux about 15-35%). However, this may just be an artifact of linux's notoriously bad reporting, or the fact that I'm using the O(1) kernel and preemptible kernel patches, or maybe something stupid some GNOME applet is doing because I configured it wrong under linux; who knows CPU-bound processes certainly don't seem to run a whole lot faster (as they should, if this were something real). Other than these cases, for the most part, I haven't seen much speed difference with linux apps--or ports to FreeBSD. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Statically Linked IceWM
hi , Can some one tell me if it is possible to build IceWM statically linked ( FreeBSD as well as linux i am using FreeBSD 5.0).i downloaded the source tar and made changes to the make script by adding the -static parameter but still the executable produced is not statically linked but dynamically linked. Please tell me the way to go ahead. ( tell me if it is possible also) Thanks in advance.

Could you be losing your dhcp lease and then renew it and get access to apache back. I have 2 NICs in crystal and http://crystal always works on the internal network. I don't do that very often because I have a router after the DSL modem and use the external address for even my internal accesses. Crystal's firewall does the nat translation for the 6 machines connected through it. Topaz (this machine) has its own IP and doesn't do nat. The firewall is also much tighter and anyone using the IP address is trying to break in. I log everything on this system. It cost me more for 2 static IPs but that was a lot less trouble. You don't always have that choice.
