Re: enable linux compatibility
have you tried running any Linux binaries? Have you installed any of the linux_base emulator ports? Try downloading a linux binary or installing a linux based application from ports.. if you do not get any elf binary errors then yo umost likely have the linux compatibility enabled correctly.

Your missing the point. INDEX is supposed to be in the RELEASES on the CDROMs because the CD's are supposed to be self-contained, ie: you should not require an Internet connection to get a complete install.

Included or not, the release is self contained (and don't require an internet in that case) since the INDEX or INDEX-5 file can always be generated from the local ports tree, via : # cd /usr/ports; make index So can many of the utilities - like perl and X - that are now supplied as binaries. I guess you want to go back to the 386BSD days when you had to build all those things yourself. I think you deserve to have your FreeBSD taken away for a month and be forced to run Solaris 2.5.1.

Since they are, it's time to e-mail the release people. Unfortunately, though, from the looks of the docs coming out of them, there's little interest in the release team on the 4.xx line anymore so this is probably an exercise in futility. Unfortunately the disappointing thing is that the 3.X release had the same kind of thing happen. The very last 3.X release of FreeBSD had several broken things - notably ESDI support, bad144 no longer worked, even when a few revs earlier it was working fine. Now we are seeing the same thing with 4.11 - a niggly problem that marrs the normally perfect release. I am concerned that if something like INDEX was forgotten, that there's going to be other things forgotten as well. Sigh. We really must learn when to quit on these release trains. 4.10 was a perfect cap on a successful 4.x run.

Here I'm still using 4.10 and have run into new problems. realplayer-8 worked fine, BTW. When I type %realplay, after a few seconds the following is printed to stdout: No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig library is not correctly configured. You may need to edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual page and on http://fontconfig.org I poked around, finally found that both fontconfig and linux-fontconfig were installed. I found fonts.conf in /usr/X11R6/etc/fonts but don't understand what needs to be configured. Anybody else know what I'm doing wrong?

Seeking performance tuning pointers/tracking down GIANT
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I read man tuning and did some goggling. Yet questions remain. System: Dual processor Intel PentiumPro motherboard. FreeBSD 5.3 SMP kernel. fxp 100baseT NIC. I am managing a system that is running tor, a fairly network intensive service. See http://tor.eff.org The service processes about 7Mbps symmetric traffic sustained. top shows about 33% CPU idle. There is plenty of inactive/free RAM. While server throughput grew steadily over time, throughput appears to have hit a ceiling at between 7 and 8 Mbps. The bottleneck is not upstream from the server. I am trying to track down the bottleneck inside the server that is establishing this ceiling. I played around with various sysctl variables, but to no effect. One thing that I do notice is that the main tor process tends to spend a fair amount of time in GIANT. Does perhaps one of the readers of this list have any suggestions how to determine where the bottleneck may be found and if so how to remove it?

Re: Free BSD 5.3 SMP Kernel
I'm just guessing, but it sounds like you come from a Linux background. What you want to do is roll your own kernel by copying the /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC file to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MYSYSTEMNAME Upper case system names are traditionally used for the kernel config file in unix. HP-UX is the same, IIRC. Edit in: quote # To make an SMP kernel, the next two are needed options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel device apic# I/O APIC /quote You will also want to change things like ident to MYSYSTEMNAME. There are a plethora of other options to have a play with as well. after you've finished editing go to /usr/src and run make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYSYSTEMNAME then make installkernel KERNCONF=MYSYSTEMNAME then reboot. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html will help you tremendously. Personally I find the whole process much simpler than configuring a Linux kernel.

having 1.5GB RAM I cannot allocate more than 512MB RAM in 4.10
Dear FreeBSD list,
I have an AMD Athlon-XP with 1.5GB RAM.
Unfortunately my FreeBSD 4.10 throws a memory allocation
error when in a simple C++ program I try to allocate
with new 512MB of RAM or more. Until 511MB it goes fine!
Is there any kernel specific feature I should tweak?
What is the problem here? I didn't have such problems
with 5.3 Release although it is generally more unstable!
Here is the simple C++ program I used:
--
#include iostream
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
if (argc != 2)
{
cout usage: argv[0] mem(memory to allocate in bytes)\n;
cout examp: argv[0] 1024\n;
exit(1);
}
long int bytes = strtol(argv[1], NULL, 0);
char* buffer = new char[bytes];
cout memory allooated succesfully = bytes/1024.0/1024.0 MB \n;
delete[] buffer;
cout allocated memory is now free\n;
return 0;
}
#g++ memalloc -o run
#./run 536870912
which when I tried to run gave a:
-
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
what(): St9bad_alloc

RE: Missing INDEX file in Ports.
Your missing the point. INDEX is supposed to be in the RELEASES on the CDROMs because the CD's are supposed to be self-contained, ie: you should not require an Internet connection to get a complete install. Otherwise there's no point in even bothering to release the CDROMS in the first place. Included or not, the release is self contained (and don't require an internet in that case) since the INDEX or INDEX-5 file can always be generated from the local ports tree, via : # cd /usr/ports; make index So can many of the utilities - like perl and X - that are now supplied as binaries. Not self-contained on the disk1. I said 'make index', not 'make fetchindex'. The case of packages themselves are another thing, i think. I tend to think that this file was forgotten during the release's process (but i don't know), i just want to point the fact that it can be self-generated without a network connection. Nothing more. I guess you want to go back to the 386BSD days when you had to build all those things yourself. I think you deserve to have your FreeBSD taken away for a month and be forced to run Solaris 2.5.1. That will teach you to smart off about being able to generate things. How would you like a Sendmail upgrade to take 2 hours, eh? Or let's see even better - how about bootstrapping a usable version of gcc on a SunOS box? Been there, done that. We don't want to go back to those days. There's a reason that precompiled and pregenerated stuff is included in the UNIX distributions. Neither Disk 1's require KDE or GNOME to be generated from the sources, either. Nothing wrong here, however that was not my point in this post. -- -jpeg. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The dump completed. To restore I did: %restore -Nxvf /mnt/backups/var.dump.1 When asked which tape to use, I said 1 When prompted for tape 2, in xterm2 I did: %sudo mv var.dump.1 var.dump.a %sudo mv var.dump var.dump.1 Then back in xterm1: End-of-tape encountered You have read volumes: 1 Specify next volume #: 2 Mount tape volume 2 Enter ``none'' if there are no more tapes otherwise enter tape name (default: /mnt/backups/var.dump.1) none extract file ./db/entropy/saved-entropy.6 snip extract file ./tmp/kdecache-root/ksycoca Add links Set directory mode, owner, and times. set owner/mode for '.'?

As it is a little _home_script_, there is some caveats to know: - It must launch as root from the local system in order to be able to write to the local DVD burner; - It assume that that the larger compressed remote fs is lesser than the 2Gb limitation (you can for example set the nodump flag on /usr/ports/distfiles/*, if this is not an issue for you, to decrease the size of the /usr dump); - Some commands/options are hardcoded; - May be extended to managed more than one copy of each backuped fs if there is sufficiently space left on the DVD...

[This is pretty much the only situation for which I think securelevels are helpful.] Disabling things you don't need is *always* a good idea. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Installing the JDK without Xorg
Thanks for the help. I got a suggestion on a forum to build it as a package...make MINIMAL=yes package I haven't created a package from a port, so I'm not entirely sure what that'll do. It installed Java fine and left me with a bzip2 file. Does this mean I can just copy that file to any other machine I'm using and install Java as a package, so I don't have to wait the long time for it to build? Or would it be better just to build it all on each machine anyway?

Xorg config failure - help requested
Folks: Your kind help is solicited in the matter of an xorg config which fails to initialize on (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Hardware is Sony PCV-L640, which is packaged from the manufacturer with an LCD display, Sony part number PCVA-15XTAP2. The maker's spec on the display calls out native resolution of 1024x768, and vidcontrol seems to confirm this. Additionally, DDC seems to find the display and read a reasonable set of parms. This notwithstanding, xorg server initialization fails. I've tried explicitly specifying DisplaySize, HorizSync, VertRefresh in the Monitor block of the conf file, to no avail. Log files, config files, and supporting data below. Any ideas concerning some means of torturing this config into working will be welcome. Thanks.

Re: I need a cuppa...
I don't think I ever saw that message you got, but I remember that it did download a ton of Xorg stuff because there was a motif dependency or something. As far as linux goes...you need to have linux emulation enabled, because you use a linux JDK to build the native one. So make sure you've got linux emulation working, install the linux-sun jdk, and then build the native JDK. It's all detailed in that link I gave you.

ipfw statefull ruleset problem
Hi everyone, I have a question regarding my statefull ipfw ruleset. I have the following rules: ---begin--- $cmd 00015 check-state #www $cmd 00200 allow tcp from any to any 80 out via $pif setup keep-state #mail $cmd 00231 allow tcp from any to any 110 out via $pif setup keep-state #ftp $cmd 00283 allow tcp from any to any 21 out via $pif setup keep-state # Allow in standard www function because I have apache server $cmd 00400 allow tcp from any to me 80 in via $pif setup limit src-addr 2 # Allow in FTP $cmd 00410 allow tcp from any to me 21 in via $pif setup limit src-addr 2 # Allow in mail $cmd 00420 allow tcp from any to me 110 in via $pif ---end--- (there are a lot more rules, but these are the ones that it's about) The problem that I'm having is that I can't check mail, and can't FTP and see a lot of: ipfw: 299 Deny TCP [my-server-ip]:80 [some-ip]:[some-port-other-than-80] out via em0 messages in my logfile. When I try to check mail I see in my log: ipfw: 299 Deny TCP [my-server-ip]:110 [my-home-pc-ip]:[some-port-other-than-110] out via em0 What happens (I think, as far as I understand ipfw), there is an connection setup on port 21/80/110 (ftp/http/mail), which is allowed by the rules. A dynamic rules is created, but then the other computer switches ports. The check-state command checks for a dynamic rule, but the port doesn't match anymore and so it doesn't find a dynamic rule and the other rules also don't apply, since they only allow connection initialization. Am I correct? I can solve all this by putting in the rule: # $cmd 00020 allow tcp from any to any established But I learned that that is not the right way to do this in a statefull ruleset, because the dynamic rules don't have any use in this way. So what is the right way to solve this?

Re: Free BSD 5.3 SMP Kernel

Sort of, I have used Linux in the past (including building Kernels) but only came back to it recently I've also played with Solaris on a Sun Ultra. I'm looking to replace some of my servers etc which are running W2K server. I have tried Fedora but it is not stable enough for a production environment. Hence Free BSD. BTW neither FC2 or 3 will install on the Proliant - probably due to lack of EISA support. What you want to do is roll your own kernel by copying the /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC file to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MYSYSTEMNAME Upper case system names are traditionally used for the kernel config file in unix. HP-UX is the same, IIRC. Edit in: quote # To make an SMP kernel, the next two are needed options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel device apic# I/O APIC /quote You will also want to change things like ident to MYSYSTEMNAME. There are a plethora of other options to have a play with as well. after you've finished editing go to /usr/src and run make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYSYSTEMNAME Its running now, but taking it's time. I'm not surprised as it only running on 1 cylinder so to speak. then make installkernel KERNCONF=MYSYSTEMNAME then reboot. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html will help you tremendously.

Re: Xorg config failure - help requested

Beard wrote: Folks: Your kind help is solicited in the matter of an xorg config which fails to initialize on (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Hardware is Sony PCV-L640, which is packaged from the manufacturer with an LCD display, Sony part number PCVA-15XTAP2. The maker's spec on the display calls out native resolution of 1024x768, and vidcontrol seems to confirm this. Additionally, DDC seems to find the display and read a reasonable set of parms. This notwithstanding, xorg server initialization fails. I've tried explicitly specifying DisplaySize, HorizSync, VertRefresh in the Monitor block of the conf file, to no avail. Log files, config files, and supporting data below. Any ideas concerning some means of torturing this config into working will be welcome. I had the same sorts of problems trying to use the x config scripts. My advice is to ignore the config scripts and follow the simple procedure in the FreeBSD handbook - X -configure and then test, check the log file to see if the monitor information is in there, or if not, search the web for an X11 entry for your monitor, or dig up the monitor specs and build it by hand. Other than the monitor part, it is quick and easy. The procedure you describe above was executed in this case; the conf file in the original message was generated by 'Xorg -configure', and the log file was generated by 'Xorg -conf /root/xorg.conf.new'. Additionally, the same release of xorg is running successfully on three of my 12 machines - the others run x clients only (in the case of the headless boxes), or (in two cases) are still running 4.10 with XFree86. This problem appears to be specific to the particular hardware configuration described in my initial note. (By way of explanation, the machine in question had run W2K until last week, but I decided to upgrade it to FreeBSD 5.3 for better reliability and improved function.) I have searched the X.org archives (and even resorted to google) for config information specific to the display called out above - with null result. Now I have X.org up and runnning on four different machines - and I'm loving it! See above. Perhaps a detailed look at the log file will reveal to you a clue which I have overlooked. I've not yet tried an explcit 'modeline' config - but my interpretation of the log from a subsequent run with the explicit monitor parms generated by -configure (but commented out in the auto-generated config) uncommented seems to indicate that the initialization process is failing to read the Monitor block, or the values are being overridden.

Anyone made pkgtools.conf's ALT_PKGDEP work?
I have this in my pkgtools.conf:
ALT_PKGDEP = {
'apache-1.3.*' = 'apache+mod_ssl-1.3.*',
'openldap-client-*' = 'openldap-sasl-client-*',
'openldap-server-*' = 'openldap-sasl-server-*'
}
However, I still get errors like this all the time after upgrading ports:
# portversion -vL=
Stale dependency: gtk-qt-engine-0.6 -- openldap-client-2.2.19 -- manually
run 'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force.
It seems that the ALT_PKGDEP values should be rewriting that dependency on
openldap-client-2.2.19 to openldap-sasl-client-2.2.19 automatically but it
never does. Has anyone made this work, or should I file a PR?

ipmon writes to security.* in 5.3
I have a 5.3-STABLE machine with ipfilter built into the kernel. When running ipmon logging to syslog, the information is being dumped to the security.* service instead of the local0.* service like the handbook says it should. I've taken a quick look at the code and it appears it should be going to local0.* like expected and like it did for me on 4.10, but it's not. I see the following in UPDATE: 20041003: The pfil API has gained an additional argument to pass an inpcb. You should rebuild all pfil consuming modules: ipfw, ipfilter and pf. but I don't think that should affect me since I installed 5.3-RELEASE and have rebuilt to the current (two weeks ago) 5.3-STABLE. Does anyone have any recommendations? Pointers to blatantly obvious documentation are perfectly acceptable, if warranted.

dependencie to the port ?
I don't know.
I don't think it would be very efficient in terms of effort vs. use. How
many ports do you really want to install with non-default options? And
how often do you re-configure them?
You probably want to wait for an opinion from someone else who knows
more, though.
Phil.
Lest see how far we can get you have to help me do because i suck at
development :)
damn forgot to rename currentdependencies to dependencies
main{
newdependencies= yes;
dependencies = make pretty-print-run-depends-list;
WHILE newdependencies=yes DO
configure(dependencies);
dependencies=(make pretty-print-run-depends-list) - (dependencies)
IF dependencies = nulll {
newdependencies = no
}
}
function configure(dependencies){
WHILE dependencies DO{
grep(dependencies,i);
make configure;}

Network problem after upgrade from 5.1 to 5.3
Hi ! I am long time user of FreeBSD and for must updates so far I hadn't had much to do (maybe option here and option there, but networking never changes), but after upgrade from 5.1 to 5.3 everything stoped working. Since I couldn't rebuild kernel (some internal problems), I decided to delete everything and reinstal from scratch (last time I did this was when disk crashed, and that was about 5 years ago). But now again nothing works. I didn't change any configuration files since instalation except, rc.conf, and copied my firewall.conf and natd.conf... Even after recompiled I couldn't use network. My FreeBSD is used as server and also router for my internal network (using NAT). Problem: == If I disable firewall, natd is turned down so inside computers can't get to internet through FreeBSD box, if enabled, then nothing works. It seems like small trouble in Firewall, but I don't know why. I usually didn't make any changes to firewall since I am not guru there... Config: = FreeBSD BOX- dc0: external IP | V rl0: internal IP 192.168.44.1 - Hub I was using NATD and firewall (I have my own rules for both and everything worked before), I have compiled IPDIVERT and IPFIREWALL into kernel. Startup rc.conf: === defaultrouter=xx.xx.5.1 # Set to default gateway (or NO). firewall_enable=YES # Set to YES to enable firewall functionality firewall_silent=YES firewall_type=/etc/firewall.conf # Firewall type (see /etc/rc.firewall) gateway_enable=YES# Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. hostname=atechnet.dhs.org # Set this! ifconfig_dc0=inet xx.xx.5.51 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifconfig_lo0=inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifconfig_rl0=inet 192.168.44.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 natd_enable=YES # Enable natd (if firewall_enable ==YES). natd_flags=-s -u -f /etc/natd.conf natd_interface=dc0 network_interfaces=auto natd.conf (This is just for redirection of emule ports) === redirect_port tcp 192.168.44.2:4662 4662 redirect_port udp 192.168.44.2:4672 4672 redirect_port tcp 192.168.44.2:4711 4711 redirect_port tcp 192.168.44.1:5432 5432 redirect_port udp 192.168.44.1:5432 5432 firewall.conf (this is open firewall with added ports for redirection) = add 00050 set 0 divert 8668 ip from any to any add 00100 set 0 allow ip from any to any add 00200 set 0 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 add 00300 set 0 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any add 1 set 0 allow udp from any 4672 to 192.168.44.2 dst-port 4672 add 10001 set 0 allow tcp from any 4662 to 192.168.44.2 dst-port 4662 add 10002 set 0 allow tcp from any 4711 to 192.168.44.2 dst-port 4711 add 65000 set 0 allow ip from any to any Please help me, I need to make my server active again, but I can't do that unless whole network is working...

Docs for Berkeley Make?

If you have the doc package set installed, look in: /usr/share/doc/psd/12.make If not, the same documents are available as part of the online FreeBSD documentation set: http://docs.FreeBSD.org/ This is not a comparison of GNU make and BSD make. It's just a guide for BSD make. I believe it's a guide that is better than trying to decipher the makefiles of the src/ tree. AFAIK, the latter tend to depend on a lot of features of the src/share/mk/* stuff, which are not necessarily available and do not work exactly the same with all versions of BSD make out there. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

2 quick firewall questions for FreBSD
First, if one were to deploy FreeBSD 5.3 as a standard web and email server, would it need a firewall? I don't see the point because only ports like 25 for smtp, 110 for pop, 80 for http, etc... will be listening and open for connections with or without a firewall. Second, I would like to replace my Linux gateway running Shorewall. Shorewall is a nice package for managing the netfilter firewall capabilities of the Linux kernel. Is there something similar for FreeBSD? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: 2 quick firewall questions for FreBSD
Having a firewall prevents rogue programs from opening up other ports on your machine. You have to worry about services you don't install and configure just as much (maybe even more so) as the services you do install.

Re: Installing the JDK without Xorg
I built it on an Athlon XP, couple years old, and I'm going to install the jdk on a Barton machine. So it should work if I install it as a package... On the other hand, it's a production server, so I imagine I should probably just build it from scratch, just to be safe.
