Re: Recommendations for wireless networking and FreeBSD
Hey, Ive been using a 54g card on 5.1 current for a while know quite successfully for a while know. The card I am using is a Dlink with an atheros chip, this chip is only supported in current at this stage. If you are running 5.1-Current you can # man ath and it gives a list of card that use that driver I've just moved into an apartment in which drilling and running wires is taboo. Has anyone delved successfully into the realms of wireless networking their FreeBSD groups? My main server is running 4.8-STABLE, and I have a client machine running 5.1-RELEASE (which has been suspect to a lack of driver support for its onboard NIC in FBSD anyway), but I am not married to any of these releases and would up/downgrade if a solution was available. I'd also prefer a Wireless-G access point and adapter solution if possible, as opposed to the much slower B solutions available. Thanks ~John If you wanted 802.1g you would more that likely have to upgrade to 5.1-Current - Do you Yahoo!?

Re: Overheating attributed to Freebsd --sysctl variablesnotavailable--
The answers below are right, even if this vars are out, the machine
should still work, or it has faulty hardware.
OS's like Windows 95,98,ME don't do idle calls unless you install
something like rain on them, so they would always trash such a machine.
In addition, if you would have the machine build with idle (c1) calls,
and where running a long compile/code job (8+ hours), then it would
crash also, that kinda defeats buying a powerfull processor...

FWIW, I doubt the accuracy of that last paragraph, and don't think

I have a related problem. In my case, it's a borrowed laptop on which
I installed FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT (quite a while ago, but last
{build,install}{kernel,world} was circa July 2003). Also installed on
the system is Windows 2000 Professional. The related problem I have
is that I can fairly easily get the laptop to power off due to
thermally-initiated shutdown using FreeBSD (complete with current
temperature has exceeded system limits type messages on the console
beforehand), but can't seem to do so via Win2K. :-(
These are the same two (2) operating systems I am using. FreeBSD will cause my
AMD-MP's
to overheat while only idling --depending on the room temperature.
Now I know that in a sense this is apples and oranges, because I don't
do precisely the same things under both operating systems. But, it
seems that high-CPU/system activity under FreeBSD will ultimately lead
to a thermal shutdown, but not on Win2K (no so far as I've been able
to manage, anyway).
Exactly what I'm experiencing unless and until I set the following:
machdep.apm_suspend_delay: 0
machdep.apm_standby_delay: 0
If i have the above two (2) lines set to:
machdep.apm_suspend_delay: 1
machdep.apm_standby_delay: 1
Its just a matter of time before one or more of the processors overheat and the box
shuts
down --without notice.
This is inconvenient, to say the least. For
example, a FreeBSD buildworld or buildkernel will not complete; it'll
get part way through before the machine becomes too hot and shuts
itself down. Similarly, building big ports like Mozilla won't
complete, which makes portupgrade a bit of fun. Needless to say, this
system doesn't get updated much. :-)
You may want to try and set those above variables to '0'
machdep.apm_suspend_delay: 0
machdep.apm_standby_delay: 0
Now I'm not saying the machine doesn't become physically hot when
running Win2K, too. It does (e.g., when playing CPU-intensive games,
etc.). But somehow, Win2K is able to manage things so that the system
does not become so hot that the shutdown kicks in.
Same here
So, I'm wondering if there's some sysctl or other knob that can be set
in FreeBSD that will ameliorate this problem.
Once again try:
machdep.apm_suspend_delay: 0
machdep.apm_standby_delay: 0
(I thought
laptop/mobile CPUs generally were able to step down to lower clock
speeds to conserve power/run cooler, for example.) If I could do
system rebuilds and port builds without having to restart that'd be a
big improvement! :-)

Generally all you need to do is delete the linux_base 7 stuff and install linux_base 8 before you attempt to install anything that would depend on the linux_base port. Ports don't fulfil their dependencies by checking that a particular other port has been installed. Rather they check for the presence of a particular file (often a shared library). Only if that file isn't found then they will attempt to install a port that provides what is required. However, in many cases there are several ports that could fulfil the dependency, and if one of those is already installed things should just work with that. If you're a portupgrade(1) user, you should run pkgdb(1) to fix up the dependencies recorded for the installed packages. That's just bookkeeping, and doesn't affect the day to day operation of the system, although it does make it simpler to upgrade ports later on. Also look at the ALT_PKGDEP array in pkgtools.conf as a way of automatically recording the modified dependency in newly installed ports.

[Please cc and excuse the formating as I'm forced to use the webmail for now] Hi, I've changed, as a result of a failure, my mobo from a GA-7VT600 1393 to a GA-7VT600-L, both with VIA Apollo KT600 / 8237 cipset.

Anyone using a SOYO KT600 Dragon motherboard?
Hi all - Looking at building a new system and was wondering if anyone is using one of the SOYO KT600 Dragon motherboards (either the plus or ultra platinum)? http://www.soyo.com.tw/products/proddesc.php?id=257 http://www.soyo.com.tw/products/proddesc.php?id=256 I've searched, but haven't found these specific models. Their site says it's supported under FreeBSD, but I'd like someone to confirm that :-) I'll be emailing SOYO as well, but figured I'd get this out there in case they take awhile to respond. I'm most interested in knowing if the audio/lan is supported. Both boards use the VIA KT600 / 8237 chipset. The ultra uses CMI 8738 for audio which is listed on freebsd.org as supported. The plus uses VIA 1616 which isn't listed, but Via VT82C686A is... but I can't find any info on that latter chip on Via's site. I also can't find any information on beyond VIA MAC 10/100 Ethernet for the VIA KT600. Any info/stories on this board would be appreciated.

Trouble using the man subsystem
I posted about this a while ago. For some time, I've had a broken manpage system on my FreeBSB box. Currently, it's at FreeBSD-4.9. The symptoms are: sometimes I get an error about not being able to locate tmac for tty-char. Though I can find that in /usr/local/share/groff, etc. Most times, I will do man command and the prompt just returns. Nothing, nada. I'm absolutely puzzled, because a reinstall (makeworld/buildworld) does NOT resolve the problem.I cannot see there to be any odd environment variables, however this suggests there may be a configuration issue somewhere.I'm out of ideas, and wonder if anyone out there has suggestions about where to look, how to fix this.

Re: Backing up kernel before upgrade - 4.9 - how?
Hi! In order to have a safety belt I'd like to backup my current kernel before upgrading (i.e. make installkernel) my newly compiled kernel. Which files do I need to back up? I thought about /kernel (file) /modules (directory) Running make installkernel backs up your current /kernel as /kernel.old and /modules as /modules.old. The previous *.old is removed, so if you want to preserve *these*, you'll need to do it manually. -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * One can never know for sure what a deserted area looks like. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

vfs.aio tuning question
Couldn't find any real explanation of these parameters online, but I noticed they appear to have disappeared in 4.8. I have a 4.6 system that shows the following parameters when sysctl -a is executed: vfs.aio.max_aio_per_proc: 72 vfs.aio.max_aio_queue_per_proc: 1024 vfs.aio.max_aio_procs: 32 vfs.aio.num_aio_procs: 0 vfs.aio.num_queue_count: 0 vfs.aio.max_aio_queue: 1024 vfs.aio.target_aio_procs: 4 vfs.aio.max_buf_aio: 72 vfs.aio.num_buf_aio: 0 vfs.aio.aiod_lifetime: 3000 vfs.aio.aiod_timeout: 1000 Now, I'm pretty sure these have something to do with asynchronous I/O, and I'm under the impression this is a bad thing to use. It appears this 4.6.2-RELEASE system is using it, but I don't know how to verify it or how to be sure it's not going to wreck something. If possible, I'd like someone to point me to a reference that describes the async features in some detail and particularly these parameters. Also, are they really gone from 4.8 or do they have to be 'turned on' somehow - and when is this an acceptable configuration? Thanks a lot folks.

One, that you have Gnome installed on your box, and two, that you are attempting to install KDE concurrently. If you notice in the Errata, there is a conflict among the programs on the install cd requiring different versions of OpenLDAP. I experienced the same thing. Here's what I did to get them both working. I give thanks to Marcus in #freebsd-gnome for fixing the problem. First, I updated my ports tree. cvsup -g -L 2 /dir/to/ports-supfile Second, I needed to update gnomemeeting since it required the older version of openldap-client and KDE needed the newer. In doing this, I found that libxml needed to be updated for gnomemeeting to update. I did one update of gnomemeeting, and retried KDE ... it didn't work. So then I decided to update the openldap-client. So, I did this as a whole: # portupgrade -ra libxml # pkg_deinstall openldap-client # installed openldap-client21 from ports # portupgrade -f gnomemeeting # pkg_add -rv kde [I didn't want my box to have to spend three days building it, so I used packages.] Everything worked like a charm.

Software (even the operating system) simply doesn't enter into the equation. True, software can manipulate the hardware in certain ways to make it run cooler or conserve energy during certain periods, but you simply can't hold the software responsible for actual, physical hardware failure. I still say that the best solution is to figure out how to better cool your system. Buy a bigger heatsink, add more fans to the case, cut holes in the case to improve airflow, whatever. You could even buy different hardware with the rationale that the stuff you have is defective by design because it overheats under normal use and I wouldn't complain.

The file specification I am attempting to recover from the archive throws tar completely off.

Re: Extracting individual Files via tar
You should always use the f option to specify the archive - for example tar -tzf archive.tgz to list or tar -xzf archive.tgz to extract. In your example below, you didn't specify an archive so it defaulted to the device /dev/sa0, which it couldn't open. Any extra arguments are treated as archive members - eg tar -xzf archive.tgz files/to/extract In your example below, it was trying to find 2 files in a non-existent archive. - Original Message - From: Martin McCormick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Extracting individual Files via tar The command tar ztf /usr/local/src/ports.tar.gz produces a table of contents just like the man page says it should.

Re: make dev problems
In the immortal words of Jason Burris [EMAIL PROTECTED]... The system didn't have the sources, so I downloaded the first CD ISO and extracted them from there into: /usr/src/sys Could there be more sources that I need to extract? Also I tried the suggestion: cd /usr/src make buildkernel KERNCONF=COMPUTERNAME wait a bit make installkernel KERNCONF=COMPUTERNAME And I just got the message: make: don't know how to make buildkernel. Stop There is nothing in my /usr/src directory besides the /sys dir. You only have the kernel sources, you need the rest of the base sources and a make buildworld before you can compile the kernel. You might want to consider installing cvsup (pkg_add -rv cvsup-without-gui) and getting the latest version of the complete sources. for more details, the handbook is always a good source of information.

4.9-RELEASE jails and named
Greetings, I have a server which will host 3 websites, and is assigned a single local IP address (one from the 192.168.x.x group). I created 3 jails which are up and running, and each website will be contained entirely within it's own jail. The jail hostname reflects the domain of the website it will host. The only daemons running in each jail (for now) are cron and sshd, and each jail has a single wheel user. Some might call this the beginnings of a virtual server? This host server runs named. For now, I tell my home computer to use the host server's public IP address as my only DNS server, so I can access (in theory) each jail/website by name. I enabled named in rc.conf, then created named.conf, then created zone files for the server, the 3 jails/websites, and reverse DNS. This process was rather complicated, and somewhere along the way I have configured something wrong. The way the zones are set up for the jails/websites, when I ping from my home computer, it resolves the name to the host server IP and pings it just fine. But if I try to ssh to the jail/website by name, it ends up ssh'ing to the host server. The only way I found to ssh into the jail/website was to first ssh into the host server, then from there I could ssh to the jail/website by using it's local IP address. At least pings from the outside world can get to the host server but once at the host server, how do I get that traffic routed to the correct jail/website (local IP address)? This is much tougher than I expected, and after hours of trial and error trying to self-teach myself how to do this, I digress... I must once again ask for help from the experts. All assistance is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Chris ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

By the sounds of it you have one external IP address but three jails (each running on a 192.168.x.x address). If you want to be able to forward requests for different domains to internal jails based on the hostname, this is not possible. The only way to do this is (that I know of) is to use a single Apache server with Virtual hosts. Otherwise, you will need to obtain at least two more external IP addresses. Of course, you could also run the web servers on different ports... -lewiz. -- I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. --Bob Dylan, 1964. -| msn:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | url:www.lewiz.org |- pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
suidperl in ports?
Hello, I just did a perl portupgrade from perl-5.8.0 to perl-5.8.1_2 and suidperl is apparently missing. Some apps the server runs need suidperl. Do someone can help?

Re: jdk14 port
Ok, I figured out what the problem was. It's really quite interesting. you see, I was building this via ssh to my server. My server has had network issues (due to the connection) all day, and my ssh sessions were lagging horribly. it would freeze for a long amount of time. I noticed the build always seemed to error at a different point. So I thought to myself, maybe the ssh freezing is causing a problem so i fired screen and ran: cd /usr/ports/java/jdk14 script jdk14-out.log make package then i detached from the screen, and ran xtail jdk14-out.log to keep an eye on it. and sure enough, it built with no problems whatsoever. I have NEVER seen anything like this, but I guess it makes sense.

pkgdb -F and a few other questions
Hey All, By now I have posted alot of questions and you are probably getting tired of seeing my name in your inbox... But I have yet another for you. I am currently running FreeBSD 5.1-Current, I have SquirrelMail 1.4.2 and Courier Imap installed. I installed a plugin for SquirrelMail that required Perl 5.8 or above. Look to find out I have 5.6.1 installed. I ran CVSup -x -L 2 sup-ports and then a portupgrade -Rra and wala, still Perl 5.6.1. So I de-installed 5.6.1 and make install on perl 5.8.1, ran the pkgdb -Fa and all these errors poped up. Some of the app's were dependent on Perl 5.6.1, so I had it point to the Perl 5.8.1 and all is well, and ran a use.perl port command. For what ever reason I had to re-install SpamAssassin, and the razor-agents ports too. Now if i run pkgdb -F I get what you see below: --- Checking the package registry database Missing origin: bsdpan-CPAN-1.7.6 - Ignored. (the package is held; specify -f to force) Missing origin: bsdpan-Data-Dumper-2.121 - Ignored. (the package is held; specify -f to force) Missing origin: bsdpan-ReadLine-Perl-1.0203 - Ignored.

Look at section 2.5, and 2.5.3 in particular. It seems to me the installer can do what you want without much fuss, but I have never used 2 disk like this before. I would(without having actually doing it in real life) but /var, /swap, /root, and /tmp on ad0 then move to ad2(if the 2nd hd is on the 2nd cable, if not it will be ad1) and use the whole disk for /usr. Samba is on the default install, depending on how far down you strip it. Type $mount_smbfs //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/node /mnt as root(the super user). Sounds straight off the man page, which reminds me type $man mount and $man mount_smbfs for some good info. The mount command works like this: mount_smfs= mount a file system(fs) of type samba(smb) //user= user or account name of the computer you are connecting to. For example, on win98 the user name for the login screen when you boot up is what you type. If you forgot it, search for password files on the windows box and delete them(*.pwl). Next time you login just fill in the blanks to reset them and you will have full control of the box as a root type user, pretty lossy security isn't it? @sever= the computer name. Look under network properties for the computer name, or right click on the my computer icon and read it from the info there. node= the part of the drive that you are sharing. Did I forget to mention sharing? You have to have file and print sharing active under network properties, then right click on the folder(or the whole drive) from within explorer, chose sharing, chose how you want to set it up. To see if it is being shared open network neighborhood and you should find what you choose in there. If you choose to share c drive, node = c. /mnt= the mount point on freebsd. This can be anything you want. When I dual boot I do a mkdir(make directory) to create a folder called /win98. It is empty until I mount my fat drive to it. To make things simple you can make a c directory to mount to, but that is why /mnt is there and empty.

Looking at your Linux boot messages, it looks like your firmware and driver versions are off. I've seen this cause a fair number of issues- you should be able to get a flash disk on IBMs support site, as well as the updated Linux driver at least. I suppose the big question is what version of the firmware the BSD driver wants?

It's reported via the kernel because ultimately, memory allocation goes through the kernel/system calls. What are your system specs, RAM, typical processes being run, output of top or memory usage summary etc? Are you running anything 'unusual'- Java tends to be a bit of a hog, databases, or learning to program?

Question: LinkSys W11 802.11b Card
Hey group, Was wondering if anyone has successfully gotten a LinkSys W11 802.11b wireless card to work? When I run: # pccardc dumpcis I get a card found but no information returned. If I enable the card using: # pccardc enable 0 (or 1) wi0 -i 3 I get a kernel panic or lockup after the wi0 line returned by the kernel. Thanks for any help on this.

Re: Extracting individual Files via tar
you must use the f flag when manipulation files. no f flag equals attempt to access tape drive. Martin McCormick wrote: The command tar ztf /usr/local/src/ports.tar.gz produces a table of contents just like the man page says it should. The man page also says that individual files can be recovered or listed but I haven't gotten that to work at all. if I try: $ tar zt ports/print/pstotext/ /usr/local/src/ports.tar.gz tar (child): /dev/sa0: Cannot open: Permission denied tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file tar: Child returned status 2 tar: ports/print/pstotext: Not found in archive tar: /usr/local/src/ports.tar.gz: Not found in archive tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors In the successful test, tar obviously knew which specification was the archive and was able to uncompress it with the z flag. The file specification I am attempting to recover from the archive throws tar completely off. I looked in the handbook and all the examples I found were the more usual procedure of unpacking whole file systems as in tar zxf somedir/archive.tar.gz I'm not having trouble with that use of tar.

Re: Anymore help out there? Re: mail never gets sent
You need to configure sendmail to route via your ISP's SMTP gateway. Many IP's are listed in a 'dial up user blacklist', and yahoo, aol, etc will reject your mail otherwise.

Re: Anymore help out there
Set your SmartHost in your sendmail config to relay through your ISP's SMTP relay will fix the problem. Robert Huff wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: The timeouts look suspicious. Is your upstream blocking outgoing SMTP connections (perhaps in an attempt to stop spam)? A quick way to check would be to: telnet mx4.mail.yahoo.com smtp No response would mean that someone is blocking you out (either upstream or the receivers). Tried that, it just sits on simradusa# telnet mx4.mail.yahoo.com smtp Trying 216.136.129.5... and never connects. Bingo. Same response here, and I know I'm being blocked.
