Swapless system: processes killed in favor of disk cache?
Hello list, We're running a swapless FreeBSD 4.10 system. Although we do have a disk in this particular system, it is currently not used as swap. The problem we're experiencing is that when storing a large file on the disk, a lot of memory is used (same as the size of the file). This leads to random processes being killed with an out of swap space message. Running top when dd'ing 30 MiB from /dev/zero to a file on disk shows free memory dropping 30 MiB, and Inact and Wired combined increasing for the same amount. I was able to change this behaviour by opening the file with the O_DIRECT flag. But this only fixes one problem in one particular application, and I'd like to understand what is actually going on. So, is all this memory used for disk cache? If so, why is it not invalidated when a process wants to allocate memory? Are there any sysctl's that controls this behaviour? I've tried setting vm.swap_enabled=0, vm.defer_swapspace_pageouts=1, and vm.disable_swapspace_pageouts=1.

Sound on Thinkpad and Networking questions
Hi, the newbie Lars here again - still working on NOT being a newbie soon...! ;) New problems with FreeBSD 5.4 on my IBM Thinkpad 600E: 1. I try to get the sound to work, but I never manage to make! I have tried to recompile the kernel, as described in the FreeBSD Handbook I chapter 8. First I found a website dedicated to Thinkpad600E and FreeBSD 4.7, but the lines presented there didn't work. Instead I went to chapter 7 in the handbook where it describes how I will change the kernel to work with a Crystal 4232 Soundcard, so I guess I got the right lines for the kernel. But when it comes to building the kernel it says that it doesn't know devices with the names pcm or csa. So, I am kind of stuck... HELP! 2. To learn networking I have connected the Thinkpad to my 2.2Ghz Intel-machine, but I must admit that still has too less knowledge about networking. I have configured the network cards so I can now ping both computers, but I need to know more - does anyone have any suggestions about essential reading (books, websites, other) about networking FreeBSD/Linux/Windows? 3. The network I try to build is just a small LAN at home, with computers 192.168.0.1 (my 2.2GHz) and .2 (my 600E) involved. Could I give them other names? Could I be use Terminal or Konqueror to reach them from each other?

After creating a mailbox use lm to see what mailboxes are created, and then lam mailbox to check the permissions. Include that in your next mail. I just looked back in the archive from the cyrus mailing list and cyrus imap does some stuff with reverse dns and if it fails strange things may occur: Aparently, cyrus-imap does a reverse lookup of the ip on the inter- face that recieves the connection.

Re: Sound on Thinkpad and Networking questions
Lars Lindblad [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: New problems with FreeBSD 5.4 on my IBM Thinkpad 600E: 1. I try to get the sound to work, but I never manage to make! I have tried to recompile the kernel, as described in the FreeBSD Handbook I chapter 8. First I found a website dedicated to Thinkpad600E and FreeBSD 4.7, but the lines presented there didn't work. Instead I went to chapter 7 in the handbook where it describes how I will change the kernel to work with a Crystal 4232 Soundcard, so I guess I got the right lines for the kernel. But when it comes to building the kernel it says that it doesn't know devices with the names pcm or csa. So, I am kind of stuck... HELP! You don't have to rebuild the kernel to get sound working. kldloading the right module should be enough.

To learn networking I have connected the Thinkpad to my 2.2Ghz Intel-machine, but I must admit that still has too less knowledge about networking. I have configured the network cards so I can now ping both computers, but I need to know more - does anyone have any suggestions about essential reading (books, websites, other) about networking FreeBSD/Linux/Windows? TCP/IP Network Administration and The Complete FreeBSD both from O'Reilly are good. I wouldn't call them essential, but reading them won't hurt. I suppose you already know about the FreeBSD handbook. 3. The network I try to build is just a small LAN at home, with computers 192.168.0.1 (my 2.2GHz) and .2 (my 600E) involved. Could I give them other names? Could I be use Terminal or Konqueror to reach them from each other? What do you mean by reaching and what names are you talking about, host names?

Works fine, so long as the machine does not also have a PS/2 keyboard attached. More importantly, I would like to utilize a USB hard drive connection (maybe one of those hard drive cases for laptops) for creating a nightly backup of the data on my hard drive. I could store much more data than either tape drive of DVD drive and could rotate a couple of disks for additional security. Tape is significantly more reliable over the long term than today's hard drives. Given that LTO and sDLT will go up to 300 GB per tape (double that with compression), capacity alone should not disqualify tape from your consideration. Can FreeBSD handle this or would I seimply need to install the addtional hard drive within the machine itself and use it as a backup? This isn't really an option since the backup would need to go off site (vault storage). FreeBSD works okay with USB mass storage, although the firewire support seems to be a little better/faster. I get the feeling that USB support on FreeBSD isn't grand and I'm working with FreeBSD 6.0BETA4 right now and when I tried to automount a USB flash drive, the machine rebooted when I pulled the drive out of the port.

Obviously jails are a good start, but my main concern is whether to go for one large jail for all the restricted users or one small jail per user. I do not have a wealth of real IPs at my disposal but accountability and security is paramount, therefore I would like to use local IPs through NAT (within the one box) whilst retaining the translation logs. I would like to use one local IP per user in order to keep track of activity. I can afford a few real IPs for the purpose. The accounts themselves will be supremely limited. No root access, just basics such as ssh, perhaps telnet, mutt etc. I do not want the users to have the ability to run any scripts, so perl etc is out, but I suppose the NAT firewall will be a fallback if any compiled programs are uploaded. Each user account is likely to have email/gpg etc but I'm happy to control that from the host system with virtual users and simply deliver into the jail. It is not necessary for the jails to run any services, except the ability to SSH in. As you can see there are factors pulling in both directions, what would you recommend as the best direction to go?

Re: Requesting advice on Jail technique.
I have been getting ready to do one-jail per domain myself. The key though is that if you want to support any port (and specifically things like ssh) they have to have a public IP address (or 1:1 NAT)... ie: if the ssh server is running under each jail, you need to know my IP address which one to log into it. You could probably get away with not doing that if they had to ssh into 1 public IP address; and have a login script that auto-ssh's to a different ip on the local network from there ... but that will take a lot more work. For security, I would say you want multiple jails -- since any one logging in can screw the rest -- but that is going to be dependant on how many IPs you want to purchase.

Re: Requesting advice on Jail technique.
Hi there, if you have enough system resources I would recommend using seperate jails for every user. All u have to keep in mind is that you won't be able to provide some services (SMTP, POP, IMAP, usw.) more than once for the whole system because they need a predefined port (25, 110, 443, usw.). Some other services, like ssh u can manage through port forwarding, http through virtual hosting, etc. Separate jails make it much easier to keep track of activities. It all depends on what applications the user should be able to use.

mp3s, oggs etc so I always have a backup. What I wanted to know is
would it be possible to reclaim some disk space under the /music
partion and link a /usr sub-partition (/usr/home) to that reclaimed
space? Hopefully I've explained myself clearly. What part of the
handbook sections could I start with?
You could e.g. use md(4). Just create a big file (say: /music/usr_home.data)
and create a file system on it:
### Do this only one:
# setenv SIZE_IN_MB 300
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/music/usr_home.data bs=1024k count=${SIZE_IN_MB}
# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /music/usr_home.data
md0
# newfs /dev/md0
# mount /dev/md0 /usr/home
### Do this every time you reboot:
# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /music/usr_home.data
# mount /dev/md0 /usr/home
### Do this before shutting down:
# umount /usr/home
# mdconfig -d -u md0
If you want, you can also encrypt /dev/md0 with gbde(1) before
creating a filesystem on it; something like this:
### Do this only one:
# setenv SIZE_IN_MB 300
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/music/usr_home.data bs=1024k count=${SIZE_IN_MB}
# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /music/usr_home.data
md0
# gbde init /dev/md0 -L /etc/usr_home.lock
Passphrase: .
# gbde attach /dev/md0 -l /etc/usr_home.lock
Passpharse: .
# newfs /dev/md0.bde
# mount /dev/md0.bde /usr/home
### Do this every time you reboot:
# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /music/usr_home.data
md0
# gbde attach /dev/md0 -l /etc/usr_home.lock
Passphrase: .
# mount /dev/md0.bde /usr/home
### Do this before shutting down:
# umount /usr/home
# gbde detach /dev/md0
# mdconfig -d -u md0

Re: Can't run make buildworld

cp fails copying file from ext2 partition
Hi, I've an external usb hard drive using ext2 filesystem, mounted in /mnt/usb (/dev/da0s1 on /mnt/usb (ext2fs, local)). I can't copy any non empty files from the ext2 partition to somewhere else (the ext2 partition itself or my local freebsd filesystem). # cd /mnt/usb # echo foo file # cp file file2 cp: file: Invalid argument cp creates an empty file2 instead of a file containing foo. If the source file is empty, cp creates an empty target file without displaying any errors. I tried with another ext2 partition I had on a local hard disk, it failed the same way. Note that mv works just fine, so as a workaround, I can move the file to my local hard disk, then copy it again to the ext2 partition. midnight commander works just fine too, I guess it isnt using cp directly, maybe cpio.

(Other than trash the w2k partition.) I don't know about dual-booting MSFT, but you could dd the first tracks of the HDD and it's primary partitions to files on a formatted floppy or two for safe-keeping, before doing anything that could mess up the boot records. You might want to save the first track of your FreeBSD primary partition too.

I don't fully understand the question you are asking. If you have one physical connection (one NIC, one Cat5 cable), you can only connect to a single collision domain, even if you use VLANs (or set up IP aliases on different subnets, etc). -- -Chuck its not clear why Chuck keeps answering since he clearly doesn't understand the question. You can, of course, multihome with one nic, and Spanning Tree and collision domains have nothing to do with anything, simply by routing to the correct router. The trick is your scheme for determining the correct router. It makes little difference if they are on the same wire or even the same numbered network. If your routing table says route 10.1.1/24 to 200.1.1.1 and route 10.2.1/24 to 200.1.1.2 you're multi-homed on a single wire. Multi-homing refers to having more than one network egress (ie 2 or more upstream providers) and the ability to decide which one to send specific traffic to. You're making a big mess of your network for little reason, except perhaps to thwart the competely incompetent. If you don't have servers isolated they can sniff and learn whatever you're doing, and if not and they know the numbering of their wire they can learn the associated vlan tag in about 200ms by trying every combination until something works. If you want to secure the IP-to-machine use a MAC-IP firewall enforcement, which is less work and more effective than renumbering your entire network with VLAN tagging. Buying into Cisco's schemes are more about locking you into using their equipment then anything useful. That's one thing thats a constant over time. Danial __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Problems with dual ethernet card
Recently, I've begun making the switch from Debian Linux to FreeBSD. I've been trying to set up my old Linux gateway box with FreeBSD 5.4, but I'm having a strange problem with my dual-port ethernet card. It was working fine in Linux, but in FreeBSD dc0 is fine, but dc1 shows up in ifconfig with the status No carrier. I've tried switching out ethernet cables to see if it makes any difference, but no luck. Unfortunately, I don't know where to begin looking for solutions to this problem. I'm thinking that there may be some sort of conflict or maybe my card isn't supported. Any ideas? I can provide more details if needed. I just don't know what else to tell you about my problem.

Stale dependency question
On a 5.4 box, pkgdb -F is reporting stale PHP dependencies and I'm not sure of the correct way to fix it. For example (one of nine such messages): php5-mysql-5.0.4_2 - php5-5.0.4_2 (lang/php). We have php5-cgi-5.0.4_2 installed, not php5-5.0.4_2. So ... 1. Portversion tells me that php5-cgi needs upgrading--will doing a portupgrade on php5-cgi fix this stale dependency? 2. Or should I replace the php5 dependency with the php5-cgi when running pkgdb -F? Where can I view a list of a port's dependencies? I tried poking around the ports directories to figure out the dependencies, but /usr/ports/databases/php5-mysql just has a Makefile which points to ../../lang/php5 as the MASTERDIR. Likewise, /usr/ports/www/php5-cgi just has a Makefile that points to lang/php5. This is inside a jail, with /usr/ports mounted nullfs from the jails container. In the container, I did a cvsup and portsdb -Uu. Then in the jail, I do pkgdb -F. Let's see, the only other thing that might be relevant is that as part of the original php5-cgi install, I renamed and moved the php binary to a different place. Then, when pear needed the php binary, we make a symlink from the moved and renamed binary back to the where pear expected it.

Badly, in my limited experience. Use bsdlabel from a rescue CD and see what you have there. If you're concerned about the mount points, mount the / device and look in /etc/fstab. 3. I couldn't get sysinstall to fix this mess - even though I thought it was fixing the FreeBSD partition mount points and applying a new BSD Boot Manager. I couldn't get these fixes to commit. Can sysinstall fix this mess without reinstalling? I'd use a rescue system -- either CD or another hard disk. 4. How do I avoid this situation when I add another disk? (Other than trash the w2k partition.) I don't know about dual-booting MSFT, but you could dd the first tracks of the HDD and it's primary partitions to files on a formatted floppy or two for safe-keeping, before doing anything that could mess up the boot records. You might want to save the first track of your FreeBSD primary partition too. You can then put them (or selected sectors) back with dd from most unixy rescue OSes. Regarding repair: Alex (above) seemed to think sysinstall would do it, but I tried a couple times (reloading FreeBSD each time) and gave up. Given Gary's comments, I suspect that I corrupted the disk label on the FreeBSD partition mis-using sysinstall somehow. I like Gary's idea of a spare copy of the MBR saved on a floppy. Seems like good insurance. Regarding avoidance: I would still like to add additional hard drives to my dual boot systems. Is there any safe way to do this?

I'm willing to try and help people, even if the questions being asked aren't entirely clear. If you want to believe this reflects a lack of understanding on my part, that's OK: you're welcome to hold that opinion. You can, of course, multihome with one nic, and Spanning Tree and collision domains have nothing to do with anything, simply by routing to the correct router. A machine with one NIC can be attached to a multihomed network. But a machine with one NIC is not a multihomed machine. [1] Multi-homing refers to having more than one network egress (ie 2 or more upstream providers) and the ability to decide which one to send specific traffic to. Sure. This definition of multihoming is applicable to the network as a whole, not to each and every individual device on the network. A multihomed network can lose one of its upstream connections and still retain full connectivity, because there is an alternate path available via the second (or additional) upstream connections. In order to construct such a network, you need two or more routers, each of which is a multihomed machine by the classic definition (ie, has two physical network interfaces connected to two different physical networks), and you commonly use BGP to coordinate routing with the upstream providers, just as you might use VRRP or CARP to provide a single fault-tolerant virtual router IP for the systems on the LAN which will continue to function even if one of the routers fails. -- -Chuck [1]: I am aware that some people would disagree with this. For example, Microsoft's IIS documentation apparently describes a webserver hosting more than one domain as multihomed rather than using Apache's terminology of name-based virtual hosts. There are people who believe that using ifconfig alias to configure additional IPs on a NIC creates a multihomed system, but there is no physical redundancy involved and there is no isolation of traffic. I find such usages of the term multihomed to be misleading at best, and at worst sometimes even represent a deliberate effort to confuse people expecting the additional reliability and redundancy of a truly multihomed network architecture: What happens to a machine with a single NIC when that NIC fails? Do you see any difference between this and a machine with two or more NICs?

You can create a firewall that just passes everything and counts it. If you're not going to block anything you don't need statefull firewalling and pf should do just fine. Otherwise ipfilter will do better. I have done this some year ago with ipfilter Last time I looked at accounting for pf the problem was to get all packets counted, both ways, with statefull filtering. The problem was that the packet would only be counted when matched against a rule, and that would only happen when the state was created, this is not a problem with non-statefull filtering since all packets will traverse the ruleset every time. It may have changed, or there may be some other ways arround. I have heard about flowd but never tried to use it. That said, pf has some features I think your boss would (or should) like more than flashy web pages: Queueing so you can priotize your boss trafic over everyone else - ofcourse, you installing it can put yourself first in the queue :-) Cheers, Erik -- Ph: +34.666334818 web: http://www.locolomo.org S/MIME Certificate: http://www.locolomo.org/crt/2004071206.crt Subject ID: A9:76:7A:ED:06:95:2B:8D:48:97:CE:F2:3F:42:C8:F2:22:DE:4C:B9 Fingerprint: 4A:E8:63:38:46:F6:9A:5D:B4:DC:29:41:3F:62:D3:0A:73:25:67:C2 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Because you don't hear anything? 1) Make sure you have a sound driver loaded. To see if ou have a sound driver loaded, try 'cat /dev/sndstat'. If that returns 'No such file or directory' there is indeed no sound driver loaded. I'm not sure is the 4232 is supported.

Not allowing SSH logins without a public key?
I have created a public/private key set with putty and managed to add the public key to my .ssh directory. I have also verified that it works as desired. I'm not too confident in configuring the SSHD so some help is much appreciated. I would like to not allow a ssh connection to the server for users that hasn't provided a public key.

What I wanted to know is would it be possible to reclaim some disk space under the /music partion and link a /usr sub-partition (/usr/home) to that reclaimed space? Hopefully I've explained myself clearly. What part of the handbook sections could I start with? Regards -- Dan Gonzalez You've pretty much described one solution by asking the question. You could create a directory in music (e.g. /music/home) and then create a symbolic link to it: ln -s /music/home /usr/home For most purposes, that should work (if /usr/home already exists, you might want to rename it first!). Or if you can use the entire /music volume as /home, just edit /etc/fstab and have it mounted as /home instead of /music. This will avoid any confusion caused by utilities that might not follow symbolic links by default. - Bob ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: 5.5 release schedule?
David Clear wrote: Does anyone know the status of 5.5-RELEASE? The schedule on the website shows it due in September, but another note had it following 6.0. FreeBSD 5.5 is definitely going to be after 6.0. The exact time will depend upon when 6.0 is finished -- the release engineering team can only handle one release at once -- but since it is the last release from RELENG_5 there is no reason to expect that the process for 5.5 will be at all problematic. Based on a guess of mid-October for 6.0, I'd guess that 5.5 will probably happen just in time for Christmas (and it would then be supported by the security team until the end of 2007).

Re: Not allowing SSH logins without a public key?
Edit the file /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change the following two parameters to NO PasswordAuthentication no ChallengeResponseAuthentication no Make sure that RSAAuthentication yes remains set. Then sighup the ssh-daemon by invoking the following command kill -HUP `cat /avr/run/sshd.pid` That's it! By the way a very good decision to set it up this way! ;) Greetz, Ice Joachim Dagerot schrieb: I have created a public/private key set with putty and managed to add the public key to my .ssh directory.

Re: Fixing a MBR (and more) that ??? trashed
Gayn Winters wrote: Regarding repair: Alex (above) seemed to think sysinstall would do it, but I tried a couple times (reloading FreeBSD each time) and gave up. Given Gary's comments, I suspect that I corrupted the disk label on the FreeBSD partition mis-using sysinstall somehow. Sorry, I didn't follow the whole discussion; I have no idea how sysinstall might handle a corrupted disk label, but I do think that when it works, it will do -o packet writing the MBR when it thinks it necessary, possibly by default. I thought you'd said that you'd run boot0cfg from a fixit shell, and all I was really suggesting was that -o packet would fix your boot selection issue. Regarding avoidance: I would still like to add additional hard drives to my dual boot systems. Is there any safe way to do this? Why do you think it's not safe to add hard drives? My own policy is to have every disk in my system capable of booting FreeBSD, some more than once (mostly to allow easy upgrading between major revisions, or to allow me to try out 6.X ow whatever), but even a disk mostly given over to , say, XP, will have a bit at the end that boots BSD. Doesn't solve everything, but even if one disk goes ka-blooey I'll be able to boot something more than a fixit shell (I hope :-)). My new policy is to have a hardcopy of fstab, df and all bsdlabels for all partitions... being printed even as this email is being sent :-) --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
