mysqladmin won't work
First of all im running FreeBSD 4.8 and mysql-server-3.23.56 Im planning to install phpmyadmin and phpnuke on my webserver for content and I forgot the root password for mysql and Im not the first maintainer of this server so I have no idea what the password could be. I was thinking to override the previous root password so I checked the documentation for mysql and it said do this as root: QUOTE: 5.5.6 Assigning Account Passwords Passwords may be assigned from the command line by using the mysqladmin command: shell mysqladmin -u user_name -h host_name password newpwd The account for which this command resets the password is the one with a user table record that matches user_name in the User column and the client host from which you connect in the Host column. ENDQUOTE so i tried that and. #mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password mysql mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)' # mysqladmin -h localhost password mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)' I don't get it, whats happening? Btw im using putty to ssh into the server, could that be a cause? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: apache + SSL, modssl vs OpenSSL

Thanks. apache+mod_ssl is my preference, but that's really just me. Either will serve you well. Functionality and configuration file sysntax is slightly different between the two but that's mostly a matter of individual preference rather than any organic difference. One thing that mod_ssl supplies is the EAPI, which enables a number of other extensions to apache, such as the ability to define and use variables within the apache configuration files. You might be interested to know that mod_ssl is a standard part of Apache 2.x 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

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 credit has been lost along the way, but I was quoting the man page. If I am following you correctly, then having a ~/,bashrc, ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile file is worthless, if bash reads only the first file that it finds. I am referring in this scenario to the ~/.bash_profile file. I haven't ever tried multiple ~/.bashconfigfiles. FWIW, the idea that more than one might get read seems a little scary. If it was, trying to debug unexpected bash behaviour would certainly lead to a head-shaped crater in the wall by my desk. That isn't exactly what I gleamed from the FreeBSD book by Annelise Anderson. Perhaps what she is referring to is an older version of bash. I'm sorry, but I haven't read this. I am not insinuating that you are incorrect; I am just trying to get the most accurate information in regards to how bash works. Absolutely.

Since portupgrade needs ruby, portupgrade gets stuck as soon as upgrading ruby-1.6 removes the /usr/local/bin/ruby file.

Just a couple more observations: /etc/profile and ~/.profile are both in fact the configuration files for sh, but bash reads them, presumably because it is at root a feature-rich version of sh. Having both shells read the same files would normally be a good thing on any given system (if you want, say, a non-standard path in sh you'll probably want it in bash too) and so this is the default and FreeBSD does not create any of the ~/.bash* files. Therefore, the ~/.profile file is not worthless on a standard installation of FreeBSD, in fact it _is_ the user config file when an interactive bash shell is started. But, as I understand it, if you want to you can override the sh config for bash while leaving it in place for sh by using a ~/.bash* file. Different versions of these files match different file naming conventions of different unixen. But only one such will be read, in a stated order of precedence, to avoid confusion.

RE: SSH Problem
Hi,
Remote rootlogin's are disabled .. which is good for security reasons,
what do you mean with it does not work as user
You login under ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] which then gives you a shell
for $user when you properly authorized. After that you can use X11,
You mean that X11 does not run as $user? it runs under root?
Well perhaps it's already started by root, so that you tunnel to
X11 where it's already running. You can try to fix that by starting
X11 as $user, for example using startx {when it's not running yet}
Hope this helps a little, if not, perhaps i did not understand your
question to the fullest, sorry for that :)

s3 trio 3d2x
Hi, I got S3 Trio 3D2X AGP video card running on FreeBSD 5.2R box. The problem is, I boot system (GENERIC kernel configuration) with agp_load set to YES in loader.conf then perform dmesg. Dmesg says that I have Generic VGA card, no S3 Trio 3D2X. I tried to compile s3.ko kernel module and then perform kldload s3.ko... It says that I have non-S3 compatable card and all. What's wrong?

You should be asking straight PHP questions on a PHP list.
In the mean time, your stylesheet declaration might look something like
this depending on how you are implementing CSS:

The FS=; is a pattern expression that is used to match the first line

By setting up filesystem quotas on the /var partition -- assuming your mailboxes are in the default place in /var/mail. procmail understands how to deal with the EQUOTA error and causes sendmail to bounce over-quota messages with an appropriate error message. To set up quotas: i) Compile kernel with 'options QUOTA' added to the config file. Reboot with new kernel. ii) Add: check_quotas=YES enable_quotas=YES to /etc/rc.conf iii) Edit /etc/fstab to tell the system to enforce quotas on the /var partition: /dev/da0s1e /var ufs rw,nosuid,userquota 2 2 See fstab(5) for details of the userquota and groupquota options. iv) Reboot -- quotacheck(8) will be run to count up how many files and bytes are owned by each of the different userids, and the quota system will be enabled by running quotaon(8). v) Running repquota(8) will now give you a nice little report showing how much space each userid is using up on the partition: % repquota -av vi) However, no usage limits have yet been set. Use edquota(8) to set them: # edquota username This will put you into the $EDITOR editor (or vi if $EDITOR is unset) showing how many files and how many bytes are in use for that username on each of the partitions with quota limits. Fill in appropriate numbers in the 'limits' sections: anything you leave at '0' will be unlimited. Save the file, and then check that the settings were registered OK: # quota -v username And that's all there is to it.

I eventually gave up on fixing the contens of the mergemaster directory in the source tree, and fell back to a new buildowrld. The final straw was that if I did not have megemaster.8.gz the insatll would fail, but I alos needed mergemaster.8 (the uncopressed version). But then make complained about not having the compressed version :-( -- They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -- Benjamin Franklin ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[Repost] Limiting connections to CVS
Reposting to list, as I was locked out of -questions over the weekend, and I don't know if I got any replies. - I read somewhere that they were able to limit CVS pserver connections to 4 a minute. I would like to do something similar. I currently have a firewall/nat box running 4.9-RELEASE-p1, using ipf. The CVS server is behind the firewall/nat box running on 4.9-RELEASE-p1.

IBM x345 SMP server perfomrance collapse when running jails
Hello, my IBM server don't like jails. I did a fresh 5.2.1 install and everything worked perfect and _fast_. I did a simple performance test with afi0 on a 500mb directory. afi0 did the backup in 82 seconds. After that I start 3 jails, just to compare the performance differences - well, it's a disaster! the same backup procedure was done in 110 seconds. I couldn't believe that and started additional 7 jails just to verify the result and surprise: backup test took 17 minutes but the load averages were at '9,32 8,54 7,22'!? The jails are extensive (apache, mysql, postfix, imap...) but that should not be problem on a smp 2 x 2.8 xeon. I run the same jails on fbsd 5.1 and didn't notice these performance problems. The jails were build on a 5.1 installation, but I'm running 5.2.1 now - could that be the problem? If yes, why?? I'll try to build fresh 5.2.1 jails with fresh mysql apache etc. but it takes so much time when the other jails are running - I can't turn them off.. :/ Does anybody has any hints for me?

Re: FreeBSd on PowerEdge 2300?
I wanna know if it's possible to install FreeBSD 4.9 on DELL PowerEdge 2300? My install failed when the install CD search for Hard Drive, can I have help please? Sure. We have a several of 2300-s running FreeBSD and most have been upgraded to 4.9 (or reinstalled as 4.9).They have also run 3.2, 4.3 and 5.1. I presume the HD is SCSI. Is it possible that it is not seated completely back in to the slot?Is the disk in slot 0? (Actually, I think it will work in the wrong slot if there are no other disks before it, but...) The only time I have ever had trouble on a 2300 is when a disk was not seated well and locked in to the slot. You didn't post much information about what you saw, so it is hard to guess. Maybe it would help to copy any messages that appear on the screen as it attempts to boot that might relate to the SCSI controller or the HD. jerry Thanks.

vinum on 5.2
Hello, I've put together a site: www.davemehler.net/vinum.php based on some internet research and a lot of doc readings, detailing an upcoming server install with vinum and raid1. I've now heard secondhand that vinum under 5.2 doesn't work with swap due to changes in the kernel and might not work at all after a few more modifications.

Help Setting Up .bashrc
Hello, My environment variables indicate SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash and ENV=/home/rperry/.shrc. My understanding is that bash reads ~/.bashrc for interactive shells and $ENV for non-interactive shells. I don't have the ~/.bashrc file. Neither do I have a ~/.bash_profile, or a ~/.bash_login file. I also see where the startup files for bash are .profile and .bashrc. One of the settings in my .profile indicates that ENV=$HOME/.shrc; export ENV. I've read where bash will read other files (e.g., .shrc, etc.) when it's own initialization files are not present but I'd like to set up the appropriate bash files anyway. I've seen examples of the .bashrc file in some text but was looking for something from within FreeBSD. I found some /src/share/skel/dot.* files but none for bash.

Re: Help Setting Up .bashrc
Kevin D. Kinsey, DaleCo, S.P. wrote: Bob Perry wrote: Hello, My environment variables indicate SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash and ENV=/home/rperry/.shrc. My understanding is that bash reads ~/.bashrc for interactive shells and $ENV for non-interactive shells. I don't have the ~/.bashrc file.

One of the settings in my .profile indicates that ENV=$HOME/.shrc; export ENV. I've read where bash will read other files (e.g., .shrc, etc.) when it's own initialization files are not present but I'd like to set up the appropriate bash files anyway. I've seen examples of the .bashrc file in some text but was looking for something from within FreeBSD. I found some /src/share/skel/dot.* files but none for bash.

Bob Perry Well, do you want any environment variables present? ;-) You can probably get by with what you've got until you figure out you need more. And, you can just put whatever it is in whatever files bash *will* read Since bash isn't part of FBSD, I don't know that you'll find any example dotfiles within FreeBSD. I'd look in either /usr/local/share/* or /usr/local/doc, or wherever the bash manpage or website suggests that the documentation might be You can make your own, of course. Look at .shrc., .profile, etc (i.e.) some of the files that *are* default installed, and see what's there. Mostly these are things like aliases (shortcuts?), setting up your CLI prompt in a fashion you desire, chooing a default editor, pager, terminal environment, etc. Also, you *will* likely want to set a PATH for bash, in whatever rc file(s) it will read.

FreeBSD filesystem performance in Enterprise
Curious how FreeBSD ffs performs in Enterprise-level environments (ie: email stores that send 100's of thousands of messages per day) versus other filesystems like XFS (I heard thre's a port going on for FreeBSD..?), ReiserFS, et al. Is there a FAQ that covers some of this and the various tuning issues one might consider (filesystem and kernel).

Network File System (Coda, AFS) question.
Hi, I'm interested in setting up a distributed file system across two 5.2.1 machines. I wanted this to work such that the two machines had /different/ data but through the use of some software they can be ``mounted'' to provide a single large volume (almost the same way that the RAID0 works). First of all I'm not sure that this is possible -- I'm having a little trouble understanding some of the Coda terminology. If somebody could confirm/refute this I'd be interested. Secondly does anybody know which is my best bet (in general -- regardless of network concat support)? AFS ports seem to be nonexistent (bar a client) while Coda has a version 6 port (but no documentation newer than 2000 that I can see). If Coda is not able to do what I want -- does anybody know another way to do this?

Re: Unexplained reboots with 4.9
I recently brought up an old 700MHz P3 4.9 machine and added a 3ware IDE raid I had similar behavior on a 5.x-CURRENT machine which was solved by moving the IRQs assigned to cards around; the BIOS set up the SCSI controller, the AGP card, and the Ethernet card to share the same IRQ and this wasn't working. If the machine just locks up (are you running X? Do you have a serial console attached so crash info stays around?) then my guess is that it's basically hardware. Any ideas for trying to figure out what is wrong with this machine? I know very little about IDE or 3ware, so I won't be of much help there. My hardware is all Supermicro P6DLH/P6DGH and the disks are all SCSI. I am running one system under 4.9-STABLE using 8 SCSI drives in 2 vinum RAID arrays and haven't had a peep out of that machine for a long time, except for sector failures (drives are EMC surplus).
