RE: What to do when panic?
I've never debugged FreeBSD, but now I've decided to help the testing process of FreeBSD 6. I installed it, and then I had a panic. I got a debugger prompt, but I don't know what to do with that. I don't know the debugger commands. Please let me know what should I do when I have an another panic. What should I type and what kind of information should I send as a PR. You should also have a look at http://www.lemis.com/grog/Papers/Debug-tutorial/tutorial.pdf. That's Greg Lehey's script of his excellent tutorial on kernel debugging.

Printer won't work
uname -a FreeBSD localhost 5.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE #0: Wed Jul 20 22:10:32 UTC 2005 root@:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/VIL i386 Can't get printer to work. I have a P4 compter with SCSI drives and 1 gig of memmory. It runs Mozilla, apache2, mysql and php5 perfect. When I try to print something, it doesn't work. I have a Hewlett-Packard Deskjet-500 printer. I followed the instructions in the Handbook. I tested it with the 'lptest /dev/lpt0' function. It printed one line, stalled for a few seconds like it didn't know what to do, then it ejected the sheet and then ran two more sheets without trying to print anything. The manual says if it prints something, it okay, you can fix the errors later. I did install the 'ifhp filter' from the /usr/share/examples to /usr/local/libexec/ifhp. The 'ifhp filter' is designed for the Deskjet-500 and will also work on most Hewlett-Packards. My printcap file is: lp|hp|local line printer:\ :sh:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/ifhp: My print spool is: /var/spool/output/lpd I chowned lpd for deamon,deamon and I also chmoded 770 like the book says. I used 'lpr file' to try and print something and all I received was: lp: no daemon to abort printing enabled lpc: Unable to connect to /var/run/printer: Socket operation on non-socket lpc: Check to see if the master 'lpd' process is running. couldn't restart daemon This tells you theres no socket and the daemon isn't running. I also checked to see if /var/run/printer existed. I cd'd to /var/run and that was it. I ran ls and printer did not come up. I also ran # lptcontrol -i -d /dev/lpt0 for interrupt-driven mode and # lptcontrol -p -d /dev/lpt0 for polled-mode. It failed both times. I know how to use ps -aux the see if apache and mysql are running, but I don't how to find out if the 'printing daemon is running. I think we need to somehow find a way to get the 'printing daemon' to run. This is about a far as I can go, hopefully, someone can tell me the steps to get the daemon going and how to tell if its going. I also tried this on the same computer with FreeBSD 5.4 without any applications installed. I also tried it on Dell-P3 with IDE drives. Both of these produced the same results.

Hi people. I like to hear some experienced about this situation and see if is possible: We have in the company i work, one backup system running Windows NT 4 with some Seagate Backup Exec 7.8 over one SCSI system HP SuRestore Ultrium 230, this system has working good for some years, but next week we are going to receive one new Dell server running win server 2k3, this will be our PDC, and we need to get rid of Windows NT system backup, and i want to install the backup system with Freebsd 5.3 or 5.4 and bacula or another backup system that you now is working with my HP device. Them, i can use Freebsd 5.3 or 5.4 with my HP device with bacula or other software to backup files on my windows domain?

Also as you have 3 disks you can make a 3 disks mirror for the boot slice.

Re: ipfw and tun0
I just started to use an ADSL line with PPPoE and want run a firewall between it and my local network. What I am wondering about is that even if I only have the default everything-blocking rule (deny ip from any to any) I still see incoming packets on tun0 with tcpdump. Is this, because the firewall rules get checked after the packets leave the tun0 interface? On what interface should I run tcpdump then to check if my rules are working as expected? Just a guess, here tun0 doesn't exist when the firewall rc script is run, so you may have to explicity state the name of the interface since it wouldn't be listed during device polling at boot time? Well, it seems as if my firewall rules work as expected -- with just the default rule, I cannot do anything on the net. Another example is that I saw several SYN packets directed to unprivileged ports that got answered with a RST packet by my machine. When I block those SYN packets, I still see them on tun0 but the RST responses disappear. Also, ipfw's counters show that it recognizes those packets... Sorry for not mentioning that earlier.

And I'm expecting this to be about 2^63 for 64 bit systems ;-) Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand sysctl_kern_securelvl() in kern_mib.c, it does not disallow setting the securelevel so high.

I've downloaded the two ISO CDs and I admit you, it was quite tortuous... I remember downloading an iso via 54kb modem. My ISP would kick me off every 8 hours and I would have to resume the download. I think it took 40 hours of connect time and most of a week to get a good copy. A CD via DHL may be a lot faster :). The port tarbal will also be on the iso. Yes your are right but DHL's policy doesn't able to us to use other OS unless HP-UX OS, but this OS only works in HP Servers... Well, my interest is learn unix. The first time I tried to install KDE from CD I got only errors... The ISO CDs will have packages on them. A package is a pre-built binary that you can install. As soon as they release a version, there is a flurry of updates and new versions are added to the port system. So, the iso is always out of date but it is still the best starting point. Once you get it installed, there are versions of the Handbook in many languages on /usr/doc. It has sections on maintaining your system. After a few mistakes, the docs will start to make sense. FreeBSD may not be the easiest Unix like OS to learn, but I don't have problems with FreeBSD's QA structure like I do with the Linuxes. If you have problems with KDE again, you can ask on the kde-list. The list setup is at http://freebsd.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd You can also send emails to kde-freebsd@freebsd.kde.org and people should include you in their responses. The KDE people have a site at http://www.fruitsalad.org/. They have a system that they use to maintain copies of all of the current packages but it times out and must not be back up yet. If they have other mirrors, I don't know where they are. I maintain KDE from source and rarely use the packages. Have fun, Kent I'll try again from CDs... Thanks a lot...

I think 32MB RAM is the minimum needed to install. I think the newest version of FreeBSD that could be installed in only 8MB RAM was 3.3. You can run 4.x (and probably 5.x) with 8MB RAM but not install it, but it will be slow. I strongly recommend getting more memory.

Epson 2480/2580 scanner support
Hi, Sorry if this question is misplaced, but the sane project hosts no user mailing list, and the hardware list brought no luck. Looking at the handbook it seems that ny scanner supported by the sane backend is supported on FBSD. Now, the ports version is 1.0.15, on the sane home page, they list support for version 1.0.13 and the CVS version. I'm interested in the Epson 2480 or 2580, for the stable version 1.0.13, they are listed with basic/minimal support while the CVS version mentions good/basic support. (snapscan backend) Can anyone enlighten me as to how well these devices are supported by the ports-version 1.0.15? Second, on the snapscan web page, they warn: quote 05/22/05: Warning! I've received a report from a user who was left with a broken scanner after using the Epson 2480 in transparency mode in 2400 DPI with xsane. According to the report the scanner power light went red and the scanner smelled hot. After power-cycling the scanner it was not possible to scan anymore... /quote Can anyone confirm this? and know if the problem has been corrected in newer versions? The scanner is primarily for scanning negatives, if anyone can recommend me an alternative, supported and with an equivalent pricetag I'll really appreciate!

upgrading from 5.4-RELEASE-p4 to 5.4-RELEASE-p5
There was a new security announcement a couple days ago regarding the devfs subsystem in FreeBSD. The announcement is here: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-05:17.devfs.asc My question is regarding the upgrade and patch description. I am running 5.4_RELEASE-p4. The alert suggests either patching and rebuilding the kernel or upgrading to 5.4-RELEASE-p5. If I decide to upgrade my source, would it be sufficient (and safe) to just rebuild the kernel, or do I still need to rebuild world? The only files changed between my last build and this one are src/UPDATING src/sys/conf/newvers.sh src/sys/fs/devfs/devfs_vnops.c And for such a small change (I checked the patch, it's literally a 2 line change - sanity check of parameters for the defvs_mknod() call - plus commentary), would it really be necessary to go through the mergemaster process?

Possible problem with periodic daily processing
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Because of clock drift on my system, I decided to run ntpdate daily, instead of just at boot time. So, what I did was create a symlink in /etc/periodic/daily: 600.ntpdate - /etc/rc.d/ntpdate, thus leveraging the existing ntpdate script that runs at boot time. My rc.conf already has 'ntpdate_enable=YES' and sets 'ntpdate_program' and 'ntpdate_hosts'. In fact, if I cd to /etc/periodic/daily and manually enter './600.ntpdate start', it runs fine.

If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful.

IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the questions (the hackers). Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (obviously, substitute your mail address for [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2.

Can't Mount Root
I am running 5.4-RELEASE-p5. I was having some trouble with the serial console speed remaining at 9600 even after adding the BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED= 115200 to /etc/make.conf. One poster suggested that I follow step 6 of 20.6.5.2 in the Handbook regarding installing boot blocks. Based upon that section and the bsdlabel man page, I issued the following command: bsdlabel -B da0s1a But now when I boot, I get this output: --- BEGIN --- Mounting root from ufs:/dev/da0s1a setrootbyname failed ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp Root mount failed: 6 Manual root filesystem specification: fstype:device Mount device using filesystem fstype eg. ufs:da0s1a ? List valid disk boot devices empty line Abort manual input mountroot --- END --- da0 is my boot disk and contains /. However when I configured the disk using sysinstall during installation, I set it up as dangerously dedicated. Now I wonder if my problem is that I should have used bsdlabel -B /dev/da0 instead of da0s1a when attempting to install boot blocks? Anyway, I've searched Google and found lots of references to this problem but none specific to my situation. Is it possible to fix this without reinstalling? If so, how?

installing 5.4 on RAID1 using Promise TX2200
I just got an Promise TX2200 RAID Controller and 2x250GB SATA Drives for my new webserver. As soon as I define a raid of some sort, the installation cd just reboots the system. I think that happens at the stage where the kernel should be loaded. I've used the TX2000 with IDE drives before. There I had similar problems. I learned that the BIOS on the controller should not be used to define the array. What I did back then: - do not define the array with the Controller BIOS - boot from the install cd, start the live-filesystem - use atacontrol to define the array - install freebsd to the new ar0 device (I'm not sure anymore if that device just turned up or I had to reboot first) - everything works fine This doesn't seem to work with the TX2200 anymore. I can define the mirror from the live-filesystem, but the ar0 device does not turn up. Once I try boot from the installation cd again, I end up in the endless reboot cycle. The default FreeBSD kernel can handle the controller though. If install freebsd on a seperate harddisk, there are no problems utilizing the mirrored disks with atacontrol. The system boots normally. I can format and mount the filesystem, recover from removing one of the disks etc. Does the installation CD use a different kernel than a default system? I tried installing using /stand/systinstall (after booting the other installation on the seperate hd). But I could not get it to install correctly. It would just overwrite the existing installation...

Re: installing 5.4 on RAID1 using Promise TX2200
I think I just cracked it!

I'm installing now. hope it works. - stefan On Jul 22, 2005, at 8:37 PM, Stefan Foulis wrote: I just got an Promise TX2200 RAID Controller and 2x250GB SATA Drives for my new webserver. As soon as I define a raid of some sort, the installation cd just reboots the system. I think that happens at the stage where the kernel should be loaded. I've used the TX2000 with IDE drives before. There I had similar problems. I learned that the BIOS on the controller should not be used to define the array. What I did back then: - do not define the array with the Controller BIOS - boot from the install cd, start the live-filesystem - use atacontrol to define the array - install freebsd to the new ar0 device (I'm not sure anymore if that device just turned up or I had to reboot first) - everything works fine This doesn't seem to work with the TX2200 anymore. I can define the mirror from the live-filesystem, but the ar0 device does not turn up. Once I try boot from the installation cd again, I end up in the endless reboot cycle. The default FreeBSD kernel can handle the controller though. If install freebsd on a seperate harddisk, there are no problems utilizing the mirrored disks with atacontrol. The system boots normally. I can format and mount the filesystem, recover from removing one of the disks etc. Does the installation CD use a different kernel than a default system? I tried installing using /stand/systinstall (after booting the other installation on the seperate hd). But I could not get it to install correctly.

Vinum Bootstrap Help
Hi All, I've been trying to get a bootstrapped vinum volume up and running on a 5.4 release system (generic kernel, minimal install), based this How-to: http://devel.reinikainen.net/docs/how-to/Vinum/ But I've managed to run into a problem that no amount of Googling, reading the archive of this list, or reading the manual seems help me get by. Basically, I have Vinum configured fine and can successfully run: vinum create -f /etc/vinum.conf The Vinum volume is all fine and a vinum list shows no problems. I can also successfully do a fsck on each of the mounts, which are: / /home /tmp /var However, it appears that the vinum config isn't being saved, as rebooting the machine can't find the vinum root partition, and after manually booting to the pre-vinum root (ufs:ad0s1a) running vinum list shows no volume information. During the reboot, vinum appears to load ok, but it can't find the root (as shown by the last bit of the dmesg): vinum: loaded vinum: no drives found Mounting root from ufs:/dev/vinum/root setrootbyname failed ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp Root mount failed: 6 The relevant config files look like this: /etc/fstab #DeviceMountpoint FStypeOptionsDumpPass# /dev/vinum/swapnoneswap sw00 /dev/vinum/root /ufsrw 1 1 /dev/vinum/home/homeufsrw2 2 /dev/vinum/tmp /tmpufs rw2 2 /dev/vinum/var /var ufsrw2 2 /dev/acd0 /cdromcd9660 ro,noauto 00 /boot/loader.conf vinum_load=YES vinum.autostart=YES Any suggestions as to how to sort this would be greatly appreciated.

KPovModeler port problem: why no OpenGL?
I found a problem when I recompiled the graphics/kdegraphics3 port; the build and install were OK, but now when I run KPovModeler, it tells me, No OpenGL support and does not show wireframes anymore. I'm running FreeBSD-5.4-RELEASE-p4, and recompiling because I'm just doing an ordinary portupgrade on kdegraphics3. There was no problem during the configure step. Configure found GL, GLU, GLX, but found them checking GL/gl.h usability... yes checking GL/gl.h presence... yes checking for GL/gl.h... yes checking GL/glu.h usability... yes checking GL/glu.h presence... yes checking for GL/glu.h... yes checking GL/glx.h usability... yes checking GL/glx.h presence... yes checking for GL/glx.h... yes checking for GL... yes The only thing configure said I was missing was libsane, which I don't even need because I don't have a scanner. I'd really like to be able to use KPovModeler properly. Does anyone know how to fix this? Should I just give up and use a package? Do I need to install Mesa? It is not listed as a dependency, and in fact when I tried to make the graphics/mesagl port it says this: landru# cd /usr/ports/graphics/mesagl/ landru# make configure === Mesa-5.0.1_3 is unnecessary because libGL and libGLU come with XFree86 4.0 and higher.

I was referring to the fact that there is no mplayer package in ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.11-release/Latest/ (I'm running 4.11), nor in ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4-stable/multimedia/, nor in ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.4-release/Latest/, etc. The kplayer package is also missing, so I assumed there was some problem with the build or the mplayer project. - dhs On Friday 22 July 2005 19:04, you wrote: On Friday, 22 July 2005 at 18:18:53 -0700, David Shoulders wrote: Can you tell me the current status of the mplayer port?

Ah, the wonders of upgrading - /etc/make.conf just needs some updating per the warnings. ;-) Sorry for the line noise. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

For reasons I don't understand, the ftp site doesn't contain all packages. You should be able to install it from the port: # cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer # make install It's a pig to use, unfortunately.
