burncd in FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE
Hello. Before sending a PR, I would like to ask about the state of burncd. It is not working properly for me. My hardware is a AMD64 based system with A NEC ND 3500AG/2.19 and a DELL Optiplex 280/i386 with a HP 1100 (both drives DVD+-RW). Burning DVD+RW is ok on formated media. Formatting DVD+RW is never stopping, seems to get stuck on both platforms, but when hitting Ctr-C and stopping the wicked up process (burncd -v -f /dev/acd0 format dvd+rw), the media seems to be already formatted and useable. Burning CD-RW and CD-Rs with burncd does not work, the media get not 'closed' or 'fixate'd at the end although I explicitely try to fixate ist. Instead, I use 'cdrecord' to fixate the media and after that they work. In the mentioned DELL system, the DVD+-RW got changed due to a hardware failure and is now another model. So I'm really sure this is not a hardware problem but a software problem. I know burncd lacks in several functions, but I do not know whether it is marked 'broken' or working. I wonder if others do not have similar problems. cdrecord is an alternative, but burncd is due to its easier 'sudo' handling in multiuser environments the more desired utility.

Network problems?
I use FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE. In my rc.conf I have these lines: firewall_enable=YES firewall_logging=YES firewall_script=/root/ipfw.sh. In /root/ipfw.sh I have added a few more lines for ifconfig(setting IP,MAC). The problem is that, when I try to use a different MAC and IP, the apache starting freezes, and, when trying the startx command, it doesn`t do anything, it does`nt yield anything. On a 4.8 Release I tried to change the MAC before the IP, and these problems seemed to disappear. And, of course, the network card is working(UP adn RUNNING (from ifconfig)), no metter of the ip and MAC. Could it be something because of the name of the computer, is there any other files but /etc/hosts, /etc/host.conf?? Thank you. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

I strongly suspect that in most cases, user friendly is really just another way of saying just like what I'm used to. Quite a few, if not all, the major packaged Linuxes out there come with installers which will in all but a few weird cases figure out what your graphics hardware and mouse are and give you some sort of workable mode for both. That apparently makes the experience a lot less scary for a large chunk of those-who-install-Linux-for-the-first-time. Some of the packages even try to grab a network setup for you via DHCP. FreeBSD sysinstall on the other hand, will let you configure X if you choose during the install, and will configure your network the way you choose. I really don't like the sysinstall menu. It is really unlogically. Why isn't there a desktop and a server installation? This reminds me of somebody who turned up quite frustrated on the BLUG mailing list a while back complaining essentially that choosing the server option during NamedAfterComicstripMagician install gave him a Samba and web server, not the firewall with some extras he had in mind. Essentially there are too many definitions of desktop and server out there to make any real sense.

Can FreeBSD withstand this kind of network load??
Hi, Someone consulted me about building a pc router for multiple networks using a single interface card. Actually there are two, one facing a network going to the internet, and the other facing those multiple networks. The setup looks like this. There are three /24 networks, A, B, C All of these networks are private lan. However, Network A contains their servers, one of which is their internet proxy server. That proxy server is dual homed, one private, one public, which is also their passage way to the Internet. Now, the IT guy asked me if he can use a pc router so that network B and C can see network A, and make their way to the internet through the proxy server sitting on network A. I told him yes. I'm thinking of three posibilities, bridging, ip forwarding, and NAT. In his sketch, PC router has 3 interfaces, 1 facing network A, and two each facing network B and C. With this setup, since A already have a route to the Internet, we don't have to use NAT, ip forwarding will do the job. We will simply forward the request coming from each interface connected to network B and C to the interface connected to network A and then they can already see the proxy. However, he told me that network B and C in his sketch is not really their set up. It could extend to even few more networks(D, E, F, G, H). Qestion: Instead of using 6 to 8 interface cards in his pc router,(which I don't think is a good idea) can we just alias that interface, let's say it has an ip for networks B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I and then all the traffic from B-I network will pass through this interface through some sort of cascading switches and then routed will forward this to the second interface facing the A network and then every body will be happy? Or is it not feasible considering that all the traffic from 6-8 networks will only pass through a single interface considering that each network will at least have 30-50 hosts? What's even funny about this is that he brought that pc he will turn into a router in our office so that we can install freebsd-4.11 with this specs: pentium III - 500 Mhz memory 64 MB. HD 4 GB I just don't know whats wrong with his hard drive, FreeBSD panics during the installation process. I just smiled thinking, whoa!, you're building a pc router that will route hundreds of host with this specs?? I haven't really encountered this kind of setup yet, that's why I told him I will do a research on this setup.

There is no problem in having n NIC's. In your suggested setup you have two problems: 1) You may want to keep traffic completly separate so that hosts on B can't sniff on the rest of the networks. This is a risk if you have them all on the same wire, but can be mitigated with switches. 2) You may want B to be able to communicate with the rest of the networks, this requires traffic to be reflected on that one network card.

Technically correct. Practically speaking, most people don't care enough anymore. It's like the continual fight to enlighten users about security. They don't care because it seems to work without all that complicated stuff that idiot computer people throw at them to *GASP* learn! If companies want to sell things, they have to dumb them down for the market. Thus the perception to the end user is...application? Operating system? Whazzat? Every sysadmin has been greeted with Microsoft as an answer to questions like, What operating system are you running?, What word processor crashed?, What program was it?. Today you assume the answer since it's the monopoly, but I still remember when once in awhile you'd have to pry enough clues from them to find out that it was WordPerfect or what exact version of Windows it was... I just didn't think we'd be getting into a semantics war on this kind of topic...I wrongly assumed that it was understood that they wanted to use the computer to do something, not just discussing the installation process of the OS. In that case, Linux wins hands down with the most LiveCD options out there! :-) The only easy way to go with installing things on a computer would have to be Windows (in the Intel world), since it is most often just a matter of clickclickclickclick done. Ah, but you have to know what to click. And it is quite easy to click the wrong thing and get yourself backed into a corner. Setup.exe, then anything that says Next or Finish, unless it's grayed out in which case you mentally stumble, look up for an I agree radio button, then keep clickclickclick on next's, until it's grayed out again and you look up to see some kind of 30 digit keycode, you have to stop for twenty seconds to fumble with that keycode then double check it because having to RE ENTER it is such a frustration, then clickclickclickclick and it works magically again.

But if your planning on setting the server up on the Internet, you have omitted a whole series of steps that you have to follow for both OSs to lock down the server and keep it from being broken into. Did you miss the part about (don't know what it has open in the background or what scripts are enabled or disabled or...but who cares...web server!)? Not always, but having to go through the config files and googling often helps in the security part. If you do it right it will at LEAST open your eyes to some of the possibilities. And you'll have a better idea of what's going on than with the point-n-drool approach. It won't fix it entirely, but you're at least on the right track with the UNIX way. When those steps are followed, your looking at a good 4-5 hours of labor for either system. Sure, you can get a Windows box up and running faster, but with a public server, getting it running is only the first step in a long series of steps. You really have to understand both systems throughly if you put them online. With FreeBSD, you have to understand it throughly to get it to run, so the only real difference between them is that your FreeBSD system will get running near the end of this 4 hour block, your Windows system will get running at the beginning of this 4 hour block.

Hi, I think FreeBSD is the easiest decent operating system that i have ever used(i have used windows and linux distros too). To install a webserver under freebsd u dont have to run here and there, just go to ports and make install clean. You dont need a bunch of buttons for that. And freebsd's documentation is the best in the world. But u will only understand that if u have spend some time on reading freebsd handbook. I installed my webserver just using the handbook.

Re: resizing partitions
Hello, I've got a 5.3-RELEASE box which has a /usr partition /dev/ad0s1e that is to small by approximately 700 mb. I've got the space on /var /dev/ad0s1d to do a resize, but i am unsure as to the procedure. I tried this once a while back on a test box and lost everything. If anyone has done this or has a procedure i'd be interested. Instead of actually resizing the partition, you can just move some of the stuff to a partition where you have plenty of room and then make sym-links to it. /usr/local and /usr/ports are good candidates. Tar the whole directory tree up and put it where you want and untar it. Then make links and rm the old one. For example, I often make a partition and mount it as /work that contains all my spare disk space in a slice. If I put /usr/ports over there it would look something like this: cd /usr/ports tar cvf /work/ports.tar * cd /work mkdir usr.ports cd usr.ports tar xvf ../ports.tar Then look around in /work/usr.ports a bit to make sure it looks ok cd /usr mv ports ports.oldif you are really nervous, else just rm it ln -s /work/usr.ports ports Try out the link by doing something like cd /usr/ports and looking around It should put you in /work/usr.ports/wherever cd /usr rm -rf ports.old cd /work rm ports.tar Works just fine. I am always nervous about my typing so I normally do the extra steps of mv-ing the old one and checking things before actuall rm-ing the old stuff. But it can be skipped if you don't have that problem. You can call your extra partition mount point whatever you like. Since /var can fill up with stuff such as mail and logs and spools and db if you are running a database, you might not want to use it to house the extra stuff unless you have a really big /var - well beyond what you think you might ever need. I reserve /var for those things that grow unexpectedly so they can sort of be isolated there and make another space (/work or whatever) for space manipulation and other work - just a comment. jerry Thanks.

devfs.conf, permissions and dynamic devices
Hello all, Does anybody know of a solution for this problem: I have just acquired a new Zire 31 Palm Pilot to replace my old Palm VII, which was a serial interface. I figured out how to sync the Zire to jpilot over USB after compiling the kernel (5.3 p9) with 'device ucom' and 'device uvisor'. The problem is that because /dev/ucom0 is created and only exists when I hit the HotSync button on the Palm, putting the following lines into /etc/devfs.conf doesn't help at all: perm ucom0 0666 link ucom0 pilot link ucom0 jpilot Before I hit the Sync button in the Jpilot application, I first have to type at the console: # sudo /etc/rc.d/devfs restart It's not the end of the world, but it would be nice to simplify things a little if possible. Does anybody know of an alternate solution?

pam_radius and ssh
Hi all, I've been looking into using the pam_radius pam module and have been trying out the template_user feature as this would ease the administrative burden in our setup, (it allows a user to be specified as a template if the radius user does not have a local account.) I can get it to work fine for login and telnetd, but sshd seems to have a problem. If a local user with the same name as the radius user exists then no problem, if not then the template_user should kick in, however it doesnt, in fact if the user does not exist localy then the pam_radius module is never even invoked, or at least it never sends any query to the radius server. I'm guessing that sshd checks for a valid user even when its using PAM authentication and halts any further progress. Is there any way to turn this off? thank, Vince ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Adding my CDRW device to k3b

I log into my system as root then launch kdm then log in as myself. What do you recommend I do, log into kdm as root? Is there any way to get k3b running under a normal user account? But it still probably won't pick up the devices :( Oh, if life were simpler in FreeBSD land. First off, check that the following lines exist in your kernel config... device scbus # SCSI bus (required for SCSI) device ch # SCSI media changers device da # Direct Access (disks) device sa # Sequential Access (tape etc) device cd # CD device pass# Passthrough device (direct SCSI access) device ses # SCSI Environmental Services (and SAF-TE) device atapicam Especially important is that last one, as it ain't in the GENERIC kernel last I checked. That's the magical beast that'll get it all playing. Get that in there and recompile your kernel. You might get away with kldload cam, but I honestly don't know if that's the same thing. I was missing a few of the above items: sa, ses, and ch. My new kernel is compiling now. Then you'll want to get permissions and links all setup proper every time you boot in. Here you'll need to get /etc/devfs.conf all tweaked up proper for normal users. # /etc/devfs.conf permacd00666 linkacd0cdrom linkacd0dvd permpass0 0666 permcd0 0666 permxpt00666 You may want to instead link cd0 to cdrom and dvd, but these settings seem to work for me here. Took care of this as well. I don't recall seeing anything about editing devfs.conf in the handbook. Perhaps I overlooked it. Make sure your /etc/rc.conf has the line... devd_enable=YES This is default in newer versions of FreeBSD. Doesn't hurt to toss it in there thought. All set now with this as well. The k3b port will have installed cdrdao, but it wouldn't have tweaked on it's permissions. This one you'll most likely want to make it suid root. Definitely not something you'd want to do on a production server box just out of paranoia, but reasonably safe on a desktop. # As root cd /usr/local/bin chmod u+s cdrdao I stumbled upon these while researching my problem. Double checked the above and it looks good. After jumping through all those fun loving hoops, it should work shweet. In fact, k3b will automatically add your CD into the device list. If k3b didn't put it in there for you, that's a clue that something isn't right. I'm waiting for my new shiny kernel and we will see what happens! Thanks so much for your help Michael!

LSI 1020 mpt problem
Hi, I've just gotten my hands on a server with a LSI 1020 controller. Unfortunately when I try to boot the server off my 5.3 CD I get an error message stating that mpt0: bullet missed in timeout. I'm unable to find the 1020 in the hardware compability list for 5.x but the 1030 is there. Also 1020 is supported in FreeBSD in the 4.x series. Can I assume that the 1020 is supported in 5.x or has support been dropped for some reason? And if it is supported, what may then be the reason for the error message? I guess I should note that I'm not very experienced with server configuration, so if there's something obvious I'm missing please do tell me. -- Thanks, - Jacob Atzen ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Reusing a port after a crash

If I try to restart the application after improper termination, I receive a fatal error message stating that the port is already in use. Before restarting the application, I verify that the application did indeed shut down (via 'ps -aux') and 'sockstat -l' shows that no application is using the port in question, so I don't understand how the port could still be 'in use'.

Re: WRITE_DMA problem again
arax writes: I was just wondering if there's a solution to fix the WRITE_DMA problem. I've searched the archives but couldn't find a complete answer to this, like why it's happening and what to do about it. I'd appreciate any help. I had the same problem (same logical device, in fact, and also on FreeBSD 5.3) and it turned out to be a bad drive. I was able to verify this by downloading the vendor's standalone test software, booting it on the server, and running exhaustive tests against the drive. On the full test, the software hung (whereas it worked fine on the other, identical drive that I had configured on the system). Since this was a bootable disk and FreeBSD wasn't even in the system, this ruled out FreeBSD. I reluctantly replaced the drive (which was only 60 days old or so) with an identical model, and I've had no problems since. It seems that this doesn't do any harm to my system, but I'm not sure because at this time the system is under no load at all. These errors just appear from time to time. I would like to fix this before I move the server into production. The problem eventually corrupted some structure on my drive, but apparently the system was able to recover most of it. The drive worked well enough to allow me to run full backups before replacing it. Fortunately, there wasn't much on it. If your disk vendor offers bootable test software, download that and test the drive exhaustively offline. If it fails or hangs, you have your answer: replace the drive. If it passes with flying colors, then you'll have to look back to FreeBSD. -- Anthony ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Setting console parameters for PXE Booting
I am working on setting up what will end up being a fully automated environment for setting up our FreeBSD systems. As part of the setup process when they are racked they get plugged into a serial console (Cyclades) and I have console=comconsole in the loader.conf that I'm using in the PXE environment. My question is this, is there a way to specify the console terminal type i.e. VT100 etc. so that it doesn't ask what type of console you have attached after the kernel loads? (This is before install begins). There doesn't appear to be a getty of any form running or available at this point in the process so adding the below to an etc/ttys file in the mfsroot image probably wouldn't be of use. ttyd0 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 vt100 off secure I've read through the handbook and the README.serial in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot and haven't really come up an answer to this.

Forwarding external-bound packets internally with ipfw
I have a few servers, and I'd like to force secondary servers to deliver mail to the primary via a private network (each server is dual-homed). Mail would be deemed local (destined for my LAN) by specifying a bunch of CIDRs. I would like to accomplish this using ipfw's forwarding support, but I am having a problem getting the rule right. I first tried using ipfw forward, but after reading the man page in greater detail, it seems like this likely won't work. My next thought is to use ipfw's divert functionality in conjunction with natd, but it is not clear to me how I could tell natd to forward to the correct internal server using the redirect_port option. Ideally, I would like to maintain only one list of IP blocks. Additionally, it seems like natd wants you define a rule per IP, which will get to be rather annoying when dealing with hundreds of IPs that could easily be classified using a mask. An example of what I want to do follows: Server A: public IPs: 1.2.3.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.1 Server B: public IPs: 2.3.4.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.2 Server C: public IPs: 3.4.5.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.3 When Server B accepts mail destined for Server A, I would like it to route through 192.168.0.1 rather than the public IP. The same goes for if Server C accepts mail for Server A or B using the respective internal IP. This isn't really relevant, but I'm using Postfix as my mailer. It does have an option to force a relay_host, but it will not let you differentiate destinations. This works fine with two hosts on the network, but not for three or more. Any ideas of how I could accomplish this?

hi folks. this may seem uber-simple to some of you, but i'm ignorant regarding this. your help is appreciated. so, i have this album from Mötley Crüe (that looks right in vim, my editor for mutt), and i have ripped it to FLAC and put it on my file server. on the server, however, the directory name doesn't look like that. well, it does if i pipe ls through more (ls | more). here are the scenarios: 1) ls -- this shows M?tley_Cr?e as directory name 2) ls | more -- this looks right, with umlaut over o and u 3) ls MTAB -- this shows M\366tley_Cr\374e (backslash366 backslash374, respectively), using csh as my shell w/set complete and set autolist my question is... why the differences? is there a way to force consistent behavior across all three scenarios? thanks in advance. -- Mike Oliver [see complete headers for contact information] pgpoiogPJNOqu.pgp Description: PGP signature

I've been cvsup'ing the kernel regularly (standard-supfile) for
quite a while. About maybe a month or so ago, when trying to do a
kernel build, I get what appear to be make errors with the error
message Unassociated shell command.
(A copy of the pertinent lines from the build log are below).
The final advice from the script seems to be
Run make -f rescue.mk to build crunched binary., but I
cannot find rescue.mk anywhere. Perhaps that's my problem, but
I do not know, and I don't know enough about the kernel build system
to know how to debug this situation.
1) If the problem is a missing rescue.mk, how/where can I get a
shiny new one? And secondly, what happened to the old one? Could
an update have munged it?
2) If that isn't the problem, how can I find out what is?
3) Is there an FM that I can RT on how the kernel build system is
put together? Something that's more detailed than newbie but less
detailed than kernel developer? Right now, it's a black box and I'd
like to grey it up a little.
4) In a perhaps associated issue, after cvsup'ing ports, make fetchindex
and portupgrade also get the same error message.

Dave Madsen ---dcm adsenmay atay ijitvay otday omcay My guess: it's likely your make is out of date. See /usr/ports/UPDATING, entry 20040728. If your world is older than that date, it's almost certainly the issue. OTOH, if you're building kernels often (say, monthly?) and your world is last July or earlier, I'd have thought the problem to be older than one month. Are you also regularly building world? They really need to be kept m/l in sync. Now, I could be wrong, and often am; but it's worth thinking about, and seems quite possible.

Unending compilation of OpenOffice-1.1.2
hi, Is it normal for OpenOffice-1.1.2 to take a very long compilation time? I installed using the ports. I actually have consumed almost 24 hours to compile openoffice in FreeBSD-5.3 and until now it is still compiling. I also tried installing the source but when I execute seetup, it jst shows the loading programs but doesn't proceed with the installtion/setup. Is there anyway to quickly install openoffice in FreeBSD-5.3? -edwin -- -- Edwin D.

Were I to recompile it on my P4/2.25ghz 80mb/sec LVD SCSI system I would allow _at least_ 24 hours.

Re: php5, unable to use pcre module
