How to start KDE automatically at booting
Hi Folks, I am compelled to start KDE from multi-user mode with following command; # kdm I tried following steps without success; creating /usr/local/etc/rc.d/kguilogin.sh with only 2 lines #! /bin/sh kdm or with exec kdm kdm xinit kdm xinit /usr/local/bin/kdm -- xinit /usr/local/bin/kdm and chmod 500 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/kguilogin.sh. On booting it only booted to multi-user mode. Kindly advise how to make KDE started automatically at booting TIA Stephen Liu ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Check out the -P and -PP CLI switches to portupgrade(1). If I read them correctly, I cannot have packages replaced with packages, and ports with ports. That is, unless I can figure out which are which, ahead of time, and select the right switches for the right things. Is there an easy way to determine which are which? No, see my response.

Boot from the Win floppy and type 'fdisk /mbr' (no quotes), or boot from the XP CD, go into the repair console and type 'fixboot' and 'fixmbr'; then reboot into FreeBSD and reinstall the FreeBSD bootloader; or 3. Do step 2, then boot into FreeBSD from the CD, go into post-install configuration, choose to install a normal MBR (not the FreeBSD bootloader), write the change, then install GAG (URL in previous message). There are other options as well, but these should be enough to burden you with for now. :) Jud ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

IPFW SQUID 2 bsd boxes 2 different internet routers
Here is something that gave me uphill for a long time which I thought I might share with anyone who is interested. The problem was the traffic was too much for the one line so we installed a second line. How to divert all the http 80 stuff down the second line using a second box as a proxy? Box A is the bsd gateway with nics IIF and OIF. Runs ipfw which forwards the tcp 80 connections from the IIF network to box B It has a default gateway of internet router C Box B is the squid proxy running in httpd accelerator mode with one nic on the same network as the Box A OIF. Runs ipfw which forwards the tcp 80 connections coming into it to 127.0.0.1:3128. It has a default gateway of internet router D The answer is all in the ipfw rules. On box A: Add this rule AFTER the natd rules Ipfw add (rulenumber) fwd (Box B) tcp from any to any 80 out via (oif) On box B: Ipfw add (firstrulenumber) fwd 127.0.0.1,3128 tcp from any to any 80 in via (oif) That rule forwards all incoming requests to the squid running on the localhost. If you are stuck with only one box do this in the rules: Ipfw add fwd 127.0.0.1,3128 tcp from any to any 80 in via IIF Ipfw fwd (router for the http) tcp from any to any 80 out via OIF Any suggestions, improvements or shoot me downs are welcome.

Other people have described how you can arrange for startx to be run automatically whenever anyone logs into your system console -- however I'm guessing that isn't exactly what you mean. If you want to set up a system with a graphical login screen, check out xdm(1) --- you can enable that by editing the file /etc/ttys and changing the line: ttyv8 /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon xterm off secure to: ttyv8 /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon xterm on secure xdm(8) is the 'X Display Manager' -- the default look is not amazingly pretty, but you can customise it a bit to make it look nicer: investigate the files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm. Note that is you use xdm(8), when you log in the ${HOME}/.xsession script will be run to populate your desktop and start up a window manager, rather than the ${HOME}/.xinitrc script that's run by startx. The two scripts have very similar effects, and you can probably get away with copying one to the other initially. If you're a Gnome user, there's a workalike program gdm(8) you might want to use instead, and I believe the KDE stuff comes with (surprise, surprise) kdm(8). Their documentation should tell you exactly what you need to put into /etc/ttys in order to substitute them for xdm(8).

RE: Problems resolving hosts
You are experiencing one of the many problems created by the new file system in the 5.x development releases. The file system gets all locked up and then times out before releasing the sector on the hard drive so it can be read by program. All of the 5.x series of FreeBSD releases are from the development branch and contains experimental and un-test kernel code and is recommend by the official FreeBSD web site as only appropriate for users who can debug kernel code, to be used at your own risk. The 4.9 version is the current stable production release appropriate for general public consumption.

First of all, here's what my /var/log/messages says: Feb 27 15:47:50 beastie kernel: CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.60GHz (2593.68-MHz 686-class CPU) Feb 27 15:47:50 beastie kernel: Origin = GenuineIntel Id = 0xf29 Stepping = 9 Feb 27 15:47:50 beastie kernel: Features=0xbfebfbffFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE, SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,PBE Feb 27 15:47:50 beastie kernel: Hyperthreading: 2 logical CPUs so to my understanding there should be two CPUs available. However neither top nor systat show any indication of more than one CPU. Please note that I've got options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel device apic# I/O APIC in my kernel - and don't have I386_CPU in my kernel config file. As a test I've used two instances of cpuburn which should, upon availability of two cpus, distribute among them (i.e. one cpuburn process per cpu) but again top doesn't show that there's more than one cpu. Here are my questions: o) Why does /var/log/message flag 2 CPUs whereas top and other tools show only one? o) Any tools to see the actual load on the two virtual CPUs?

Multiple FreeBSD-installations on one harddisk?
In order to run two (different) versions of FreeBSD on one Harddisk (4.9 and 5.2) are there any special caveats/pitfalls besides having a separate slice for every installation?

Re: Boot and MBR.
Just out of curiosity what is the order in creating a dual boot system? Which operating system do you put on first? I see that having WinXP setup in partitions is not a good idea, yet I'm not aware of how to load the system in just a slice? I would appreciate any and all help in trying to get this thing online. I need my workstation back as soon as possible. Thanks. I am not sure which thing you are referring to when you use the word 'order' but... Install whatever MS-Win system you want to have first and make sure it boots OK. Then, use one or another utility to shrink the MS slice and make room for another - you can have up to 4 primary slices. FIPS works fine if the MS slice (called partition in MS land) is a FAT, but if it is NTFS you will need some more sophisticated utility like Partition Magic (which is not free - about $69 in Best Buy type stores) I have heard there is a newer free one now available that can handle NTFS and MS extended slices (partitions in MS speak) but I don't remember the name. Partition Magic will create a slice (which they call partition since they are mostly MS oriented) and mark it as a FAT32 - or something else if you tell it too. Then install FreeBSD. Presuming you use the CD sysinstall method, when you get to the partitioning stage it shows you the primary slices on the disk and what they currently have in them. Put the cursor on the new FAT slice that was created when you resized stuff with PM or FIPS and 'D' delete it. Then hit 'C' create and it will make that a FreeBSD slice. Then hit 'S' make it bootable (which, non-intuitively will put an 'A' in the Flags column to indicate it should be bootable. I have also, sometimes, moved the cursor up and marked the slice with the MS system in it as bootable (hit 'S' on it) but sometimes not bothered and it hasn't seemed to make a difference as long as the MS system booted OK before I got started. As soon as you get this done and hit 'Q' to save and go on, you will be presented with a screen that has three choices. BootMgrInstall the FreeBSD Boot Manager Standard Install a standard MBR (no boot manager) None Leave the Master Boot Record Untouched On this screen you want to choose the first one: BootMgr Then use the tab to make sure OK is selected and go on to the next stuff. After this you will be put in to a screen to divide up the FreeBSD slice in to partitions. Do this as needed for your installation From here on out you are past the boot stuff. You will choose what you want installed - if you have room, just grab it all, and where you want to install from - FTP or CD, etc Finish up the install and network configuration. When you boot, you will be presented with a menu something like: F1 DOS F2 FreeBSD or maybe F1 ?? F2 FreeBSD or I have on one machine F1 ?? F2 DOS F3 FreeBSD because it is a Dell machine and has a bootable Dell Slice with their maintenance stuff on it. You get a menu listing for every slice that is marked bootable regardless of what it is. It labels all MS FAT slices as 'DOS' regardless of which MS system is on it.. You get the ?? if the Boot Manager finds it bootable, but doesn't know sort of system it is - such as for NTFS. It doesn't have to know what kind of system it is to boot it so the ?? doesn't matter. It is just a cosmetic annoyance. IF it is too much for your stomach to take, then you can get a fancier Boot Manager such as GAG or GRUB and install it and you can configure those with whatever labels you want to use. Those can be installed later after the system is fully installed and you have some time to play. The basic FreeBSD boot manager is small to fit in the official one sector space that is available. The fancier boot managers generally use some additional space that, by convention is never otherwise used, but is not officially available for it. I kind of with they (whoever does this sort of official definition) would just officially redefine the standard so the whole unused cylinder was official boot mangler space. jerry Res Ipsa Loquitor, Mark-Nathaniel Weisman Site Master Mystic1.net -Original Message- From: Mark Weisman Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 4:59 PM To: Jerry McAllister Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Boot and MBR.

There are circumstances where you don't want to use an X display manager, and there are circumstances when you do. For a home or a desktop system, having a graphical display manager provides a much nicer user experience, IMHO. It is true that gdm(1) has had a history of security problems, but I believe the latest version has had all known problems fixed and it is as secure as anything you might use in that circumstance. As for starting the display manager from the RC scripts: this is all very well right after boot up, but it doesn't always mix too well with people logging in and out all the time. /etc/ttys is used to make sure {x,g,k}dm is automatically restarted once the user has logged out -- it's exactly analogous to the way that getty(8) is used to manage logins to tty devices. If you want to run a display manager in daemon mode, that's your privilege, but running out of /etc/ttys is certainly an option -- it's documented that way for xdm and kdm, whereas gdm docs say neither yea nor nay on the subject. People have reported that the ttys method works with gdm -- so long as gdm doesn't daemonize itself and retains control of the console then everything should be OK.

Search Path in bash2
I am trying to modify the execution path on a FreeBSD system for all the bash2 users on that system. The man page says that default path is system-dependent, and is set by the administrator who installs bash. A common value is ``/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin:.''. How do I set, or in this case, reset it? There are a number of profiles and configuration files that look like they might work such as login.conf, but I see no change in the $PATH I get and I didn't run across anything in the port of bash that seemed to set a path. The path I do get is perfectly good, but I also want users to get a shot at /usr/local/etc which isn't in the default path. Thanks a lot. I almost think I am loosing my magic touch. I can't find the global PATH setter for bash2 anywhere.

Re: ppp server: arp proxy things? (re-post)
Hello, [...] Now to what I can understand, the biggest problem is the proxy arp. I can have bc compuerts connects to bs, but I cannot let them access other hosts on the LAN. A true example: bc1 is 10.0.0.11, on the other side of the tunnel is 10.0.0.10 (bs). bs also have a NIC address 10.0.0.9. bc1 ping 10.0.0.10 and 10.0.0.9 just fine, ping other hosts gets time out. I do have enable proxy (and enable proxyall) in my ppp.conf; I do have gateway_enable=yes in my rc.conf. So it is a simple question: ppp connects okay, but proxy arp is not working, what should I do? what is your routing table? # netstat -rn (should work on freebsd, windows (cmd) and mac os X (terminal)) Now I just built a bluetooth based LAN access server, that is to run several serial connection over bluetooth, so you can think they are many simple serial connection, and ppp runs over the connections through tun. The network is like this: [gateway/firewall: 10.0.0.138] --- [many hosts, 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.8] | | +-- [10.0.0.10 -tun- 10.0.0.11] -- [bc1] [bs: 10.0.0.9]+-- [10.0.0.12 -tun- 10.0.0.13] -- [bc2] +-- [10.0.0.14 -tun- 10.0.0.15] -- [bc3] 10.0.0.138 is also the DHCP/DNS server. bs means bluetooth LAN access server, bc1 is a notebook computer with bluetooth, bc2 is another, and bc3 yet another. why? PPP server can assign IP addresses just fine without any DHCP. just put ppp/bluetooth clients on a separate subnet, i.e. in ppp.conf on bs something like (check with ppp(8) man page) server: ... other stuff ... set ifaddr 10.0.1.9 10.0.1.1-10.0.1.254 accept dns ... other stuff ... start rfcomm_pppd(8) with '-l server'. now all ppp/bluetooth clients should be of 10.0.1.0/24 subnet. make sure - all ppp/bluetooth clients have default route set to 10.0.1.1 - bs has gateway_enable=YES - bs has valid entries in /ets/resolv.conf - all non-bluetooth clients should have route to ppp/bluetooth clients via bs, i.e. to reach 10.0.1.0/24 subnet packet should go to bs (10.0.0.9) I have pppd running on bs. I'm pretty dumb with ppp, to get it working I setup three ppp lables in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf, holding the address from 10.0.0.10 to 10.0.0.15. read ppp(8) man page and look at /usr/share/examples/ppp/ Currently bc1, bc2, bc3 connect to bs correctly, I don't have any route/proxy to let bc to connect to other computers in the LAN, say 10.0.0.1. Now I wish to make the network really transparent, that is as if bc1, bc2, bc3 is in the LAN, to be pinged and sshed. I wish to make: * upon each ppp connection, bs ask 10.0.0.138 to assign an IP address from address pool to bc, also let 10.0.0.138 give other dhcp information like dns server, search domain etc. If bc love to register a DNS entry it should be able to do so. * When someone in LAN (say 10.0.0.5) wish to connect to bc2 it should be no problem (so-called proxy arp). I hope I'm clear. Am I still far away from getting that work? Where to find a guide to achieve that? Thank you! max __ Do you Yahoo!? Get better spam protection with Yahoo!

Re: Boot and MBR.
Mark, You might want to try booting the box with a Win98 Rescuse disk and running 'fdisk /mbr'. This -should- re-window-ize the MBR. Then run fdisk from the prompt and set the Windows partition as active. Reboot and see if Windows boots normally. You will not see any indication of the existance of the BSD installation at this point. Should Windows come up okay, install Grub (or GAG if it suits your fancy) and you -should- be off and running. DISCLAIMER: The ^^^ -should- ^^^ is in there because I'm not entirely familiar with your environment and configuration. As always, when working with partitions, it is possible that you will lose one, both or all of the slices and installations on the box. If there is anything worth keeping, ensure you have it backed up...

Re: Multiple FreeBSD-installations on one harddisk?

(See the man page for the boot0cfg command.) The boot1 program needs the boot0 update feature to determine which slice is being booted. 2) FreeBSD 4.9 does not understand UFS2 file systems (the default file system for FreeBSD 5.2). Therefore, if you create a file system under 5.2 that you want to access from 4.9, specify the UFS1 file system format when you run newfs. 3) FreeBSD 4.9 and 5.2 store UFS1 summary data (e.g. amount of free disk space) in different places in the file system superblock. If you mount the same file system writable from both OS, you might like to fsck -p the file system after you switch to the other OS. Anything special to take care of during installation (esp. when installing the second FreeBSD?) Be very careful not to enable a newfs for any preexisting partition (on the other OS slice) when working in the sysinstall disk partition menu. I generally avoid the issue by doing the installation onto another disk and manually copying the new OS onto the first disk. Caution dictates making a full set of backups before installing the second OS. Is it possible to use the same swap-partition for both instances of BSD? Probably. It used to be possible to configure a partition outside of its slice by specifying an out-of-bounds partition offset to the disklabel program. I don't know if this is still tolerated. I strongly advise against it. You can probably declare a special swapdev in a kernel config file. Perhaps there is a relevant syscontrol or hint (which I don't know about) that you could specify in /boot/whatever. I strongly advise against this also. Disk space and main memory are very cheap these days. If you have enough main memory, you don't need much swap space. Creating a dependency of one OS on another's installation could create a painful long term maintenance problem.

I want to take the 60 gig drive from the OpenBSD box and use it as a mirror to the 60 gig in the FreeBSD box. The catch is I want to create the mirror on FreeBSD before I move the drive so I can copy the data on the OpenBSD box to the FreeBSD box. Is there a way I can configure the drive on FreeBSD with vinum so I can copy the data from the OpenBSD drive then insert the 60 gig drive in the OpenBSD box into the array on the FreeBSD box?

Re: Search Path in bash2
Martin McCormick wrote: I am trying to modify the execution path on a FreeBSD system for all the bash2 users on that system. The man page says that default path is system-dependent, and is set by the administrator who installs bash. A common value is ``/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin:.''. How do I set, or in this case, reset it? The man page also says: When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-inter- active shell with the --login option, it first reads and executes com- mands from the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior. But so far as I have seen, at least on FreeBSD, /etc/profile does not generally contain path info. This is normally set in ~/.profile and the default contains something like this: # remove /usr/games and /usr/X11R6/bin if you want PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/ bin:$HOME/bin; export PATH So my guess is that to conform closely to this way of doing things, add the path to each user's ~/.profile and also to /usr/share/skel/dot.profile so it is there immediately for new users. Alternatively, unless someone contradicts this, the man page seems to suggest you could add a path to /etc/profile and it would then be system-wide. I have never done this myself, though, so can't vouch for it whereas I have edited ~/.profile frequently. HTH.

RE: Problems resolving hosts
Well if you had paid closer attention to what Travis wrote you would have read that nothing had changed on that 5.2 lan box or his lan network so your guess about resolv.conf is way off base, and that UFS2 being the problem is a much more sound opinion. And as far as IPFW goes, your statement is again another case of you not paying attention to what was written. You really need to read closely before opening your mouth saying things which are not true. I never said that IPFW is completely broken what I said is ipfw stateful rules do not work in an Lan network when ipfw's divert/nated legacy subroutine is used. This subject was beat to death in a long thread back around the first of the year. You should check the archives for the technical details before you sound off demonstrating to everyone how little you know about what truly has transpired. Open mouth insert foot. You should also read all the posts to this list and see for your self all the 5.2.1 problems people are having. Bottom line is 5.2 is an very dirty release and is an long way from being moved to stable. It's formal release date has all ready been moved back 3 time and will more than likely move back again. The kernel development team just bit off more than it could handle this time. If it gets moved to stable in it current condition it will only end up being one of those 5.2.1.1.1 releases as fixes are applied to the stable branch and fixing stable releales is not an goal of the stable branch. -Original Message- From: Chuck Swiger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 27, 2004 1:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Travis Troyer; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Problems resolving hosts JJB wrote: You are experiencing one of the many problems created by the new file system in the 5.x development releases.

SoundBlaster 16 PnP ISA Card on 5.1
Hey Folks. I just subscribed to the list, but I've been using FreeBSD on and off for a few months now. There has, however, been one thing lacking from my FreeBSD setup and that is the ability to play sound! I followed the directions in the handbook (namely adding the line to load the snd_ab16.ko kernel module to loader.conf) and adjusted the volume. The sound, when it does play, is compressed -- i.e. runs at 10 times the speed it should. I can't even play any audio with XMMS. Anybody have any ideas? It's a Creative SoundBlaster 16 PnP ISA card (model CT4180), and it's in a PIII450 box with an ASUS P2BF motherboard. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

I didn't claim that his resolv.conf changed; I didn't claim that his LAN network changed; I said that the behavior he describes is quite close to what would happen if one of the nameservers referenced in resolv.conf was having problems. Do you not comprehend this? And as far as IPFW goes, your statement is again another case of you not paying attention to what was written. You really need to read closely before opening your mouth saying things which are not true. I never said that IPFW is completely broken what I said is ipfw stateful rules do not work in an Lan network when ipfw's divert/nated legacy subroutine is used. This subject was beat to death in a long thread back around the first of the year. You should check the archives for the technical details before you sound off demonstrating to everyone how little you know about what truly has transpired. Open mouth insert foot. Young one, you are considerably less clever than you evidently think you are. That's not surprising; this is unfortunately true of most people. A tone of condescending snobbery pretty much is never appropriate, regardless of who is right or wrong. I don't need to review the archives to remember that discussion; at that time I read them and concluded that you were unable to understand how to make IPFW+NAT work the way you expected it to.

I tried you recipie changes you sugested and the .procmailrc changes. I am not familiar with gotmail, but maybe it is calling the default global .procmailrc file instead of your local .procmailrc file. Also check your procmail logs (if you have it turned on), and your logs from gotmail, if it has logging capabilities.. also, the newer procmail versions do support Maildir delivery, whereas the older versions do not.. and the older versions should be used with a program called Safecat, but not needed for newer procmail versions. This not having a defaultdelivery file in your system also worries me, as it should have been installed by default. -- Gary ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: SoundBlaster 16 PnP ISA Card on 5.1
Hello, In my /boot/loader.conf file i have: snd_sb16_load=YES and that was all i needed to do. Aside from that you might need a volume control prog.

Re: Vinum configuration question.

One running OpenBSD on a 60gig drive and one running FreeBSD on a 10gig drive with a second 60gig for storage. I want to take the 60 gig drive from the OpenBSD box and use it as a mirror to the 60 gig in the FreeBSD box. The catch is I want to create the mirror on FreeBSD before I move the drive so I can copy the data on the OpenBSD box to the FreeBSD box. Is there a way I can configure the drive on FreeBSD with vinum so I can copy the data from the OpenBSD drive then insert the 60 gig drive in the OpenBSD box into the array on the FreeBSD box? There are several ways to achieve what you want to do. The most obvious would be to create the Vinum volume with only one plex and copy the data across via the network. You could then move the disk on the OpenBSD box and create another subdisk/plex on it, then start it. There's no way to keep the original data on the OpenBSD disk, since Vinum requires a different format from native disks, and OpenBSD has a (slightly) different on-disk format from FreeBSD.

I think you mean your audio is simply sped up? At the risk of going far enough OT to be banned, there are two types of audio compression. One is amplitude adjustment, as it were, and another is time compression (yes, check out some multitracking software), so it's possible to use the term in the sense he's using it, but it's a tad, what, {arcane?} unless you're producing hip-hop records Maybe we should recommend getting a slower processor? :D :D KDK ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Problem with dhclient
I am running FreeBSD version 5.2.1 I seem to have developed a problem with running DHCP on my computer. The dhclient is no longer working correctly. It was running fine until today. Upon bootup it no longer makes a connection. I have tried sysinstall and things get even weirder. I click configure Networking interfaces and then my network card device. No to IPv6 and yes to DHCP. At that point an error message is printed across the screen saying: dhcp client: end_packet: no route to host interface on device /dev/cuaa0. Eventually this message times out and I get to the configuration screen. However, entering the correct information does not seem to help. I have tried removing the /dev/cuaa0 device and rebooting, but nothing good happpens. How do I go about getting it working again. I should mention that I have two other computers on this net, all connected via a network hub to a router and then to a cable modem. The other two machines are running XP without any problems. This machine was working correctly until today, Therefore I assume that something got corrupted. Thanks in advance.
