cups
Hi! How do I start the cupsd a system startup? I had a look at /etc/rc.d but there is no start/stop skript! When I start the cupsd manually /usr/local/sbin/cupsd the daemon seems to stop after a time, no matter if the -F switch is enabled or not. A second question: Why is the topology of the directories of /usr/local/share/cups/model splitted up in languages (de, en ...), quite different to my Linux distro? I want to copy a .ppd file into one of these directories, but I cant figure out in which! Im using FreeBSD 5.2.1 Thanks in advance Florian -- Linux/BSD: The daemons are not longer just in my head! -- Florian Hengstberger [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://stud3.tuwien.ac.at/~e0025265 -- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Please take this somewhere else (was RE: difference betweenreleases)
Dear list moderators, I haven't been following or posting to this particular thread but the post from Manfred here caught my eye. I would like to propose the following: From now on, anyone calling for another member to be removed from the list, in an OPEN message to the list, be themselves immediately removed from the list. Posts that call for listmembers removal are childish, smack of censorship, and because they are publically posted to the list, instead of e-mailed privately to the administrators, their main purpose is quite obviously one of grandstanding.

Re: Rebooting fails after installing 5.3-RELEASE

I had FreeBSD 4.9 on one partition and Windows XP Pro on another. Tonight I erased the 4.9 partition and installed 5.3. Since then I have been unable to get the machine to reboot when booted into FreeBSD. Calling reboot or shutdown -r now syncs, displays the uptime, then roughly says: Shutting down ACPI Stray irq9 ACPI-0265: *** Error: Hardware never changed modes Just an update on my progress: There is no option in the BIOS of my ASUS board for disabling ACPI. On the suggestion of someone else with an ASUS board I switched the interrupt mode from APIC to PIC, which did not help. If at the Beastie menu I choose option 2, ACPI disabled, it does not help. If I choose option 3, safe mode, it does not help. If I choose option 4, single user mode, it does not help. If I choose option 6, then run 'unset acpi_load', 'set hint.acpi.0.disabled=1', 'boot', it does not help. Only by choosing option 7, reboot, have I gotten the machine to reboot successfully. Using 'reboot' or 'shutdown -r now' resets the machine to a state where the BIOS never comes up and the reset button must be pushed to boot the machine. I tried resetting my BIOS, erasing my hard drive, and doing another clean install of 5.3-RELEASE. The issue is still present. I removed the NIC and CD-ROM (everything but the hard drive) and the issue is still present. I never had a single problem with 4.9-RELEASE or Windows XP Pro on this box. This is my first time installing a 5.x build, and while I'd love to use it, not being able to reboot unless I'm at arm's reach from the reset button is a pain. Any ideas? -- Best Regards, Travis J.

Re: Do you need to dismount /usr to dump it?
[Matt Staroscik, 2004-11-09] If I boot to single-user mode (reboot, hit space, do boot -s) and dump /usr to a file, I get read errors on a couple of blocks. : I thought it was safe to dump /usr in single-user mode. Will I need to boot off a CD or try another trick to get a clean dump of /usr? Or perhaps I am not using the right fsck options? You do not mention which version you are running, but if you're running 5.x and the /usr-partition has a ufs2 filsystem, you could use the -L option to make a dump of a 'live filesystem' Dump will then make a snapshot of the filsystem, dump that, and then delete the snapshot. The dump will then be consistent, and as the disk were immideately after issuing the dump command.

Yes - they should be rebuilt (as part of the kernel build, in fact, I believe) unless you have set MODULES_OVERRIDE in /etc/make.conf. Good, that makes sense. One thing to bear in mind, and that has bitten me three times now (I /will/ learn, soon...) is that after the installkernel, some of your firewall rules will not work with the old world. The best bet is to boot to single user, do the installworld and mergemaster, then reboot. Your firewall rules should now function as before. Oh, and if you use ipfw instead of pf, set NO_PF=true in /etc/make.conf - without this, and if you don't add the appropriate users and groups before installworld, the installworld will puke. I'm sure will have other caveats. These are the ones that keep getting me, though. Thanks for the tips - I do use ipfw so I'll make sure I do all that.

When I do a pciconf I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:2:0: class=0x040100 card=0x10061102 chip=0x00071102 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Creative Labs' class= multimedia subclass = audio [EMAIL PROTECTED]:14:0:class=0x03 card=0x01671028 chip=0x47521002 rev=0x27 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'ATI Technologies' device = 'Rage XL PCI' class= display subclass = VGA I noticed that they both the soundcard and the graphics card appear to be pci3:*, could this be my problem?

Good day/night.
I have been having some troubles with devfs (the config files that is).
Here is what I want todo:
I want to be able to allow users in group 'cdrom' to acces (rw) to
/dev/acd0
First of all i created the group ;). So far so good.
Then i uncommented this line:
link acd0 cdrom
in /etc/devfs.conf (My only change in that file, so far).
So far so good.
Now heres where the trouble begins: I can by using the command line
utility (devfs) allow users in group cdrom to rw /dev/acd0{cdrom}
By issuing the following commands:
# devfs ruleset 10
# devfs rule add path acd0 group cdrom
# devfs rule add path acd0 mode 0660
# devfs rule applyset
Here I have:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] thib]$ ls -al /dev/ | grep acd0
crw-rw1 root cdrom 4, 21 Nov 9 23:11 acd0
lrwxr-xr-x1 root wheel 4 Nov 9 23:11 cdrom - acd0
So far so good.
But when I add these lines:
own acd0 root:cdrom
perm acd0 0660
to /etc/devfs.conf
I get this:
/etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_set_ruleset: you must specify a ruleset number
/etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_apply_ruleset: you must specify a ruleset
in my dmesg.
Okey. So I took a look in /etc/defaults/devfs.rules and did the
following: (PS: I removed the own/perm lines in /etc/devfs.conf
# touch /etc/devfs.rules
And added these lines to the file:
[devfsrules_cdrom=10]
add path acd0 group cdrom
add path acd0 mode 06660
When I reboot I get the same error messages:
/etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_set_ruleset: you must specify a ruleset number
/etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_apply_ruleset: you must specify a ruleset
Here's the kicker, even though I get these error messages it DOES WHAT
I WANT...
My questions is, what is the proper way of specifying a ruleset in
either /etc/devfs.conf or /etc/devfs.rules and wich of the files should
I use ?
I'm sorry if I missed something obvious in the manpages (or did not
google enough).
Please CC me for I'm not on the list.
Do you have something like this in your rc.conf?
devfs_system_ruleset=system
Judging by your devfs.rules you want:
devfs_system_ruleset=devfsrules_cdrom
--
Anish Mistry
Humm. This works. But how to come about this when I have setup some more rules ?
Can I add new lines e.g:
devfs_system_ruleset=devfsrules_cdrom
devfs_system_ruleset=devfsrules_bar
devfs_ e.t.c. ?

Nelis Lamprecht wrote:
Oops my bad. The only other explanation I can think of then is that

I thought that too. First, I had no path specified in named.conf,
defaults to /var/run/named.pid - relative to the (ch)root dir.
I tried to specify that path with and without leading / in named.conf,
options { pid-file }. Same result.
Starting up with '-u root' creates a pid-file where I expect, and the
directory has correct permissions as listed in previous post.
I have now tried this:
# chroot -u bind -g bind /var/named /usr/local/sbin/named -c \
/etc/named.conf
This starts up bind and a pid file is correctly created in
${CHROOTDIR}/var/run but since prileges are dropped before binding to
the interface it runs on an unprivileged port. Not really satisfying
either :-(
And this fails:
# chroot /var/named /usr/local/sbin/named -g -u bind -t / -c \
/etc/named.conf
with the same error as before. Somehow it appears that named tries to
create a pid file as a user that is not 'bind' nor 'root'. Is there some
way I can get that information out?
Mystery deepens...?

Will a SD card reader solve this problem?

The following devices are included in my kernel: device scbus device da device pass device uhci device ehci device ohci device usb device umass After rebuilding the kernel and rebooting, I tested the configuration by plugging in my camera. The following is the output of dmesg: umass0: KONICA_MINOLTA DiMAGE Z2, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2 umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT (this is repeated if I don't unplug the camera) If I do a camcontrol devlist I obtain KMCA DiMAGE Z2 1.00 at scbus1 target 0 lun 0 (probe0) so I guess the camera is recognized but no device node was probed. I am also getting the following error when i do $mount -t msdos -r /dev/da0s1c /camera msdos: /dev/da0s1c: Device not configured which I guess isn't too surprising. I have read various threads regarding this TIMEOUT failure error and some has suggested doing some quirks with the src/sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c file which I am not comfortable with doing. Will a SD card reader solve this problem? Any help is much appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Scripting the lock-screen function in xscreensaver?
I'm running xscreensaver as part of Gnome, and would like to be able to control it in a way I can't figure out. Most panel icons can right-click to a properties window that gives, among other things, the command that will be executed by clicking on that icon. The lock icon does not have this; the properties window just controls the aspects of the display, the timing of the blanking, etc. I'd like to change the action of this icon so that, before locking the screen, it executes (for example) ssh-add -D to clear all of my ssh-agent's identities. Similarly, I'd like to know the command for locking so that I can put it elsewhere; for example, into an rc.suspend file, so that if I close my laptop's cover it will automatically lock the screen. This at least I would have expected to find in the man page, but perhaps I missed it. Thanks.

about the tmpmfs=YES in rc.conf
Hi guys, I have just upgraded to 5-stable branch, and I noticed that the tmpmfs=YES and tmpsize=20m options can be put into /etc/rc.conf directly to create a memory file system automatically.

Any and all help preciated.
It is probably not a problem with the base Apache itself which is
leading to the segfaults. Rather I'd suspect that some module you're
loading into apache is causing the problem -- I mean a 3rd party
module like mod_php{4,5}, mod_jk or mod_perl.
The first step is to narrow down what the cause of the problem is.
Try commenting out the LoadModule directives in httpd.conf until you
can isolate which one is the cause of the problem.
Note: I'm assuming that you're using the standard prefork MPM --
that's definitely the preferred (in fact the only working) method
under 4.10. I think it's still preferred in 5.x, but in that OS
version you might be able to succeed at using one of the threaded
MPMs.
Cheers,
Matthew
Thx for your answer.
Will follow your advice and try to pinpoint which module causing the

Hi.
After some more googling and some experimenting with commenting out
LoadModules in Apache httpd.conf,
I'm positive the problem is a bug in PHP and related to the
php4-pcre-4.3.9 extension.
Unfortunately, I can't do without it. I'm running Squirrelmail.
One solution I 've found would be to install the php4-pcre-4.3.4 version
that is said to be working, but how do I do that ?
Don't know how to find and install old ports :-)
The solution to bugs and problems used to be to uppgrade, not downgrade
your ports.
For others interested, here are some of the useful URL's I found
regarding this issue :

Re: Please take this somewhere else (was RE: difference
Dear list moderators, I haven't been following or posting to this particular thread but the post from Manfred here caught my eye. I would like to propose the following: From now on, anyone calling for another member to be removed from the list, in an OPEN message to the list, be themselves immediately removed from the list. Posts that call for listmembers removal are childish, smack of censorship, and because they are publically posted to the list, instead of e-mailed privately to the administrators, their main purpose is quite obviously one of grandstanding. A person may not realize there is a place such a complaint can be sent other than posting it on the list. Probably they could find out by reading up on the use of the list, but if they didn't realize the one, they might not think of the other either. So, though not quite the right way to go about dealing with the situation, it might not have had the dastardly intent you describe. Also, there is a difference between censorship and taking an action against abuse of persons. The behavior indicated is indeed abusive. Interdicting that type of behavior stands short of censorship, though the issue of appropriate action is such a case is never completely clear. jerry Thanks, Ted Mittelstaedt -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Manfred N.

Should I Send a PR?
Since upgrading from 4.9 to 4.10, I've had the problems described in the message below. I've posted a couple of times and had no response other than confirmation that the aic_recovery processes are normal and new since 4.9. Please understand that I am not complaining. I just want to know if I should send a PR for this issue. I'm hesitant because it's probably something on my end or else others would have the same issue. Yet it might be a *real* bug because it happened to someone using CURRENT in December 2003 and was resolved with updates to the ahc driver code which may or may not be in 4-STABLE. Opinions? Comments? Thanks, Drew Original Message Subject:Shutdown Hangs After Upgrading to 4.10 Date: Thu, 04 Nov 2004 18:13:24 -0800 From: Drew Tomlinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've been happily using 4.9-RELEASE-p4 since April 2004. Last weekend, I decided to upgrade to 4.10-RELEASE-p3 to fix the pthreads problem since I had just added an external tape drive to the QLogic SCSI card that was already in my system. Anyway, after upgrading, I experienced the same shutdown hanging symptoms as described in this message: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2003-December/016933.html In reading the thread, it seems there was an infinite loop problem in the ahc driver code that was fixed later by Justin Gibbs. So I tried upgrading to 4-STABLE to see if the problem was fixed there. But I still have the same symptoms. I also see these odd processes in my ps output: root34 0.0 0.0 212 40 ??

Re: Do you need to dismount /usr to dump it?
If I boot to single-user mode (reboot, hit space, do boot -s) and dump /usr to a file, I get read errors on a couple of blocks. Running fsck -y (also in single user of course) did not show a problem, but it did not clear up the errors when I tried the dump again. I thought it was safe to dump /usr in single-user mode. Will I need to boot off a CD or try another trick to get a clean dump of /usr? Or perhaps I am not using the right fsck options? the dump command I used is: dump 0af /someotherplace/filename.dump /usr This seemed to work fine for / and my other filesystems. Your problem seems to be bad blocks in the /usr file system. That has nothing to do with dump. It is a bad spot on the disk. fsck will not fix that sort of thing. If you can figure out what files sit on the bad spots, you might be able to delete them and then do your dump. Then you should immediately replace the disk. jerry Thanks! - matt s. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Matt Staroscik * KF6IYW * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://wrongcrowd.com The combined weight of the horrors I have authored wrought would crush your carbon hearts into perfect diamonds of terror. -- Leonid Kasparov Destroyovitch ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Scripting the lock-screen function in xscreensaver?
On 11/10/04 09:20 AM, Jesse Sheidlower sat at the `puter and typed: I'm running xscreensaver as part of Gnome, and would like to be able to control it in a way I can't figure out. Most panel icons can right-click to a properties window that gives, among other things, the command that will be executed by clicking on that icon. The lock icon does not have this; the properties window just controls the aspects of the display, the timing of the blanking, etc. I'd like to change the action of this icon so that, before locking the screen, it executes (for example) ssh-add -D to clear all of my ssh-agent's identities. Similarly, I'd like to know the command for locking so that I can put it elsewhere; for example, into an rc.suspend file, so that if I close my laptop's cover it will automatically lock the screen. This at least I would have expected to find in the man page, but perhaps I missed it. Not sure how to do it in gnome, but I use fvwm2 and I've tied the scroll lock key to a macro as follows: Key Scroll_Lock A A Function Sleep The function Sleep is defined as follows: DestroyFunc Sleep AddToFunc Sleep + I Exec exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver-command -lock So anytime I get up from my desk, I just tap the ScrLk key and xscreensaver locks up. Gnome is a backend desktop that runs another WM, isn't it? I've actually been thinking about trying to get fvwm2 running over gnome (now that I have a decent machine with some stones). This is the way I'd do it though. Check the documentation for your WM for keybindings, and that should give you the rest.

If you set this to yourself then all traffic you send to the Internet newer leave your box. On your BSD box default router should be the ip of your ISP. This is normally set automatically by dhclient, or provided by your ISP to type in. Just jo eliminate any confusion, since your network config has been changed by running 'dhclient rl0', provide output from the following commands: # ifconfig -a # route -v get default # ping defaultrouter # arp -a defaultrouter should be shown by the route command. ping will try to ping the router, alternatively you can try 'arping defaultrouter' which will work even if ping is blocked (if you have arping installed). and also, # grep dhclient /var/log/messages (you may remove redundant information, but besure to include the last entries). Check that dhclient is running. Stop it and run 'dhclient rl0' again and see if things are any different. If so, send the changes also.

Re: Two NICs with one IP address each on the same subnet
Sean Peisert [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I have a FreeBSD 5.x box with two NICs that I'd like to set up on the same subnet. The purpose is to run separate services on each NIC.

Good day/night.
I have been having some troubles with devfs (the config files that

Here is what I want todo:
I want to be able to allow users in group 'cdrom' to acces (rw) to
/dev/acd0
First of all i created the group ;). So far so good.
Then i uncommented this line:
link acd0 cdrom
in /etc/devfs.conf (My only change in that file, so far).
So far so good.
Now heres where the trouble begins: I can by using the command line
utility (devfs) allow users in group cdrom to rw /dev/acd0{cdrom}
By issuing the following commands:
# devfs ruleset 10
# devfs rule add path acd0 group cdrom
# devfs rule add path acd0 mode 0660
# devfs rule applyset
Here I have:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] thib]$ ls -al /dev/ | grep acd0
crw-rw1 root cdrom 4, 21 Nov 9 23:11 acd0
lrwxr-xr-x1 root wheel 4 Nov 9 23:11 cdrom -
acd0
So far so good.
But when I add these lines:
own acd0 root:cdrom
perm acd0 0660
to /etc/devfs.conf
I get this:
/etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_set_ruleset: you must specify a ruleset
number /etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_apply_ruleset: you must specify a
ruleset
in my dmesg.
Okey. So I took a look in /etc/defaults/devfs.rules and did the
following: (PS: I removed the own/perm lines in /etc/devfs.conf
# touch /etc/devfs.rules
And added these lines to the file:
[devfsrules_cdrom=10]
add path acd0 group cdrom
add path acd0 mode 06660
When I reboot I get the same error messages:
/etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_set_ruleset: you must specify a ruleset
number /etc/rc: WARNING: devfs_apply_ruleset: you must specify a
ruleset
Here's the kicker, even though I get these error messages it DOES
WHAT I WANT...
My questions is, what is the proper way of specifying a ruleset in
either /etc/devfs.conf or /etc/devfs.rules and wich of the files
should I use ?
I'm sorry if I missed something obvious in the manpages (or did not
google enough).
Please CC me for I'm not on the list.
Do you have something like this in your rc.conf?
devfs_system_ruleset=system
Judging by your devfs.rules you want:
devfs_system_ruleset=devfsrules_cdrom

Anish Mistry
Humm. This works. But how to come about this when I have setup some more
rules ? Can I add new lines e.g:
devfs_system_ruleset=devfsrules_cdrom
devfs_system_ruleset=devfsrules_bar
devfs_ e.t.c. ?
I'm not sure. If you want to add more rules to the set you can just add
them under that same section. ie.
[system=10]
add path acd0 group operator
add path acd0 mode 0660
add path 'da*' group operator
add path 'da*' mode 0660
add path 'ugen*' group operator
add path 'ugen*' mode 0660
add path 'ucom*' group operator
add path 'ucom*' mode 0660

Ciao Vittorio The easiest way to burn a CD using an IDE CD writer in FreeBSD is with burncd, which is installed by default. No SCSI emulation is needed; but you need to install cdrtools from the ports to get mkisofs (which you have already done). If you have a SCSI CD burner, you can use cdrecord -- no SCSI emulation is needed. If you want to use cdrecord with an IDE CD writer (or plan to install an IDE DVD burner), you'll need to recompile your kernel with the following devices: device atapicam device ata device scbus device cd device pass (I think all but atapicam are configured in the default kernel.)

Re: Hello List
On Wednesday 10 November 2004 08:20 am, Ben Haysom proclaimed: god# uname -a FreeBSD god.mshome.net 5.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE #0: Thu Jun 5 02:55:42 GMT 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 god# ifconfig -a rl0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 fe80::205:5dff:fe42:713e%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 ether 00:05:5d:42:71:3e media: Ethernet autoselect (none) status: no carrier sis0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::240:f4ff:fe59:68ed%sis0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 inet 192.168.0.36 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:40:f4:59:68:ed media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active Okay, so let's look at this... ISP -- modem -- rl0 -- fbsd -- sis0 -- LAN The kernal obviously has the drivers up and running (else the output of ifconfig wouldn't have shown the interfaces) For _some_ reason, rl0 is showing a status of no carrier. This tells me one of two things... 1. The cable between rl0 and the modem is not connected. 2. The cable is faulty. If the NIC has lights on it, you should be able to tell by the status light on the NIC. god# more /etc/rc.conf gateway_enable=YES hostname=god.mshome.net inetd_enable=YES sendmail_enable=NO sshd_enable=YES ifconfig_sis0=inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 sendmail_enable=YES nfs_server_enable=NO sshd_enable=YES ifconfig_rl0=inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 defaultrouter=192.168.1.1 linux_enable=YES sendmail_enable=NONE nis_server_enable=YES nis_client_enable=NO rpcbind_enable=YES ifconfig_sis0=DHCP hostname=god.mshome.net Lots of repeats/changes, but let's see... You have DHCP set up on sis0, but you do not have DHCP set up on rl0. Is there a reason for this? I always ran DHCP and let the ISP cough up all the info the server needs to connect (such as default router). What it _looks_ like you've done is specify local IP addresses to both network cards, and then tried to get the server to try to connect to the ISP through the internal NIC. I _think_ what you want to do in this case is as follows: 1. Change the line that says: ifconfig_sis0=DHCP so that is says: ifconfig_rl0=DHCP This way, your internal network will be able to communicate with the server again, and dhclient will attempt to get the info from your ISP. 2. Go through the rc.conf file and remove repeated and/or changed lines. Make sure that you don't delete the lines you want -- only the ones that are unnecessary. For example, if the following three lines are in rc.conf, then _only_ the last is applicable. sendmail_enable=YES sendmail_enable=NO sendmail_enable=NONE I know it may sound picky, but if you cleaned the file up a bit, you'll probably see what's going on with more clarity. 3. Remove the line that says: defaultrouter=192.168.1.1 That should take care of rc.conf god# more /etc/hosts ::1 localhost.mshome.net localhost 127.0.0.1 localhost.mshome.net localhost 192.168.1.2 god.mshome.net god 192.168.1.2 god.mshome.net. no problems there... dmesg -a gives a load of stuff... do you really want me to post all that? Actually, not in this case... I just wanted to make sure that your system was picking up on the NICs, and your output from ifconfig shows that it had no problem with it. Let me know how it goes.

Re: English BT Voyager 105 USB ASDL modem
Hello, Being a newbie, I need some guidance and support. To cut to the chase, does FreeBSD support the aforementioned device? I would like to install the base unit, then use my ADSL connection for the rest. Go well, Mike. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
