Re: Qwest DLS MSN Premium Linksys Router FreeBSD.. Oh my
Tell Qwest you want to use a local ISP instead of MSN. The local ISP will give you better service, and you won't be guilty of sending money to M$. You shouldn't have any problem using an run-of-the-mill Cable/DSL router/hub to share the service with your LAN, so long as you use only one public IP. If you need more than one public IP, there again is a great reason to go with a local independent ISP instead of M$N. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Speed question
Hi! I have on my LAN a server FBSD 5.4 on DMZ. The router is made of linux (yes I'll change it to FBSD ASAP) with 3 NIC: eth0 (inet), eth1 (LAN), eth2 (DMZ). Strange thing is that when server is on DMZ and I access it from the LAN with ftp client my transfer speed is 30 Mbit/s. The network itself is 100 Mbit. BUT if I move server from LAN to DMZ I have the max speed arround 100 Mbit/s. BTW: server in DMZ is connected directly to the NIC on router and on the LAN side I have all users connected on one switch which is connected to the router. Is this normall for all kinds of routers (linux, bsd, etc.) with setup like mine to behave like this or is it just my router setup? Regards, Sasa pgpvEkuFy7waX.pgp Description: PGP signature

Maintaining my music collection (off topic)

I have a rather large collection of CDs and vinyls which I have
digitized for preservation. For instance:

|| | +-11-rain_dance_remix_instrumental.mp3
|| | +-12-pretty_pussy_kitty_kat_ft_five_deez.mp3
|| | +-13-unnamed_track.mp3
Inside mp3/ there are a lot of subfolders and subsubfolders
containing my albums. My problem is that they all lack a Simple File
Verification file as well as a M3U playlist. Generating those
manually for each album is way too much.
I was wondering if anybody could assist me in building this script
to perform these tasks:
1) Go to all directories containing an .nfo file
2) Generate an .sfv file based on the .mp3 files in each directory
3) Remove .sfv comments created by the cfv tool
4) Give the .sfv file the same name as the as the .nfo file (except extension)
5) Do an ls *.mp3 and output it to the same file name as the other two files
(except extension)
So far a friend of mine has helped me make this:
fix() {
find ${1+:$@} -name '*.nfo' | while read file ; do
cd ${file%/*}
if [[ $(ls *.sfv) ]]; then
(( recreate )) do=1 || do=0
else do=1
fi
(( do )) cfv -C *.mp3 || { echo SFV creation failed. ; return 1 ; }
; ... filename code .. ;
cfv=$( ls *.cfv )
if [[ -n $cfv ]] ; then
echo SFV already exists.
else
Data=$( awk '! /^:/' $cfv ) echo $Data $cfv || echo
Comment removal failed.
fi
}
But it doesn't really work.
# sh fix.sh
fix.sh: 9: Syntax error: do unexpected (expecting ))
Maybe it also can be simplified?
I don't know much coding, but to me it looks kind of messy.
Well, that's it.
Thank you so much all!

I am the only FreeBSD user on the Grace mailinglist. Apparently the dlopen() call in grace works fine on Linux and others. But not with FreeBSD. This is not a problem with the dlopen call *or* freebsd - the problem is that it is asking for a library 'libXcursor.so.1.0' which does not exist on FreeBSD. There is a 'libXcursor.so.1' though. You need to get the grace people to change the application so it requests the correct library when running on FreeBSD. -pcf. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How to terminate TCP connection?
Hi! I am running several jails. Each jail runs many services includinh SMTP, POP,IMAP, HTTP. Somtimes i need to restart all jails. So, i /etc/rc.d/jail stop And then i wait until jls shows nothing. However, it usually takes very long or unacceptably long because FreebBSD does not delete jail until all connections to it are gone. So, i have no processes running in a jail, but netstat -n show several connections (usually SYN_FIN1, SYN_FIN2, LAST_ACK states) and they hang there for a very long time. Usually, i have to reboot the server to finaly get rid of all jails and connctions. But sometimes I need to restart only one jail and have the same problem and have to wait for 20-30 minutes until all connections die. Clients are ready to kill me at such moments. So, the question, Is there a way to kill off stuck tcp connection (or actually ANY connection which are shown by netstat) or maybe there is a way to force jail termination without waiting until all connection are gone.

--- Pete French [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am the only FreeBSD user on the Grace mailinglist. Apparently the dlopen() call in grace works fine on Linux and others. But not with FreeBSD. This is not a problem with the dlopen call *or* freebsd - the problem is that it is asking for a library 'libXcursor.so.1.0' which does not exist on FreeBSD. There is a 'libXcursor.so.1' though. You need to get the grace people to change the application so it requests the correct library when running on FreeBSD. The reason why the grace developper blames FreeBSD is because of this: The executable 'xmgrace' is linked to /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 and 'strings /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 | grep libXcursor' gives: libXcursor.so.1.0.2 So according to the grace developper, the reason for my problem is a problem with libX11.so.6. But I know nothing about this stuff By the way: can someone also explain to me why libX11.so.6 has the string libXcursor.so.1.0.2.

remove distributions before installworld?
Hi, I have installed FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE through CD-ROM. I used cvsup to sync my /usr/src directory to the latest STABLE tree. The problem is that I had installed some distributions that I no longer want to keep. Also, I don't need lpr (this can be disabled through make.conf). So, is there a way to remove these files, before I do 'make installworld'? I did not find any information on this in the handbook.

The ``FreeBSD From Scratch'' article has some nice tips about doing clean installations, which you may find interesting: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/fbsd-from-scratch/ I don't use the scripts from that article, but you don't *HAVE* to use them either. The last time I did this, I used a second partition as a 'temporary boot area'. I had the following original partitions: / /var /usr /home Doing all my builds under /home/build as the 'build' user allows me to boot from another disk, mount my original /home and install a new snapshot with the following rough plan: * Mount a spare partition with at least 200 MB of space under /mnt/new * Install everything with make DESTDIR=/mnt/new installworld * Backup user passwords and a few minor /etc configuration options that I wanted to keep in /mnt/new/etc.tar.gz (i.e. user passwords, network setup files, etc). * Boot from the /mnt/new partition * Restore my /etc files * Wipe the old /, /var and /usr partitions with newfs * Remount the 'original' /, /var and /usr partitions under /mnt/root * Remount my original /home partition under /home (of the new disk) * Install everything again in their final location with: # cd /home/build/src # env MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/home/build/obj \ make DESTDIR=/mnt/root installworld * Run mergemaster to merge the new configuration files in /mnt/root with: # env MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/home/build/obj \ mergemaster -m /home/build/src/etc -D /mnt/root * Set up the boot loader to boot from the 'original' root That's _not_ a detailed guide and I may have forgotten some of the details, since I'm typing this away from my notebook at home.

Had he put #!/bin/bash at the beginning of the script when he was testing it in his account shell, he probably would have realized sooner than he was using the wrong path. Because he was using bad practice, he didn't discover that there was a problem until he switched to cron, at which point he thought the problem had something to do with cron. Using bad practice didn't cause the error, but it made it harder to diagnose the error. Proper procedure: 1) Put #!/usr/local/bin/bash at the head of the script file (or whatever the correct path to bash is on your system). If it will work, #!/bin/sh is more portable. 2) Make your script executable by the user that cron will run as. (Otherwise, you'll get a permission error.) 3) Put the path to your script in the crontab. This is currently working for me, without changing cron's environment, or mine. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Console size
I am new to bsd. When I boot my dell Latitude C610 the console much smaller than the full screen would allow. When I start X it does go full screen. I know in Linux I could run lilo to change the console settings.

Having said that, my next plan is to separate the two so that I have a game machine and a workstation running FreeBSD, along with a dedicated server for DNS/mail/spam filtering. When I do that, I'll probably get a halfway decent NVidia card for the workstation and keep the ATI for Windoze. Then to upgrade the game machine ... but I get ahead of myself ... - jt ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Cellular Modem, PPP, and FreeBSD
Hi Jordon, This was posted to -net, but I suspect -questions is more appropriate. On Wed, 26 Oct 2005, Jordon Hofer wrote: Greetings. I am running a stripped down version of FreeBSD 4.11 on an embedded x86 board. I have an embedded cellular modem module (from MultiTech) that is attached to the serial port (going through the necessary RS232-TTL chip). I am using PPP to connect to the Internet through verizon. Everything works well until the connection gets interrupted. I am using ddial mode, so if the connection drops, it will redial. From the logs, I can see that PPP tries to redial, but after the initial connection, the modem does not respond to any at commands. If I power-cycle the modem, it will connect just fine the next time PPP tries to reconnect. Sounds like your modem isn't setup to automatically reset (ie, run ATZ) on a disconnect. Some Multitechs have had weird command sequences over the years, so I don't know the extent to which it it runs 'standard' Hayes-type AT commands, but D2 is most likely what you need. D2 causes a reset (ATZ) on lowering of the DTR line. For this to work properly your serial port must be driving DTR correctly, ie be setup for 'hardware handshaking'. You might want to test DTR with a meter? Failing DTR reset working properly, if the modem is stuck in data mode, you can have your initialisation send a pause '+++' pause sequence to get the modem back into command mode (returning 'OK'), then send ATZ plus whatever init string you need, but this is last resort measure. mgetty, for example, does this if lowering DTR has failed to evoke an 'OK' modem response, after a call on inbound modems. I realize that there is a good chance that the problem is in the modem. I am just wondering if there are any cases where you need a special chat script to handle disconnects to return the modem to a clean state. If the modem is configured correctly, and your serial port control lines are working as they should, it should go. Perhaps play around with the modem using tip(1); see also modems(5), or use another terminal program. Then if you're still in trouble, maybe post your modem init string from ppp.conf, and perhaps a dump of your modem settings after an ATZ .. ATV will do this for most modems, but check your particular modem's manual. Cheers, Ian Also, if there is a better group for this, please let me know. Thanks. Jordon Hofer Dir.

I'm attempting to run GPG from cron, and it's not working. I can run the script from the command line, and all works perfectly. When I try to run it from cron, however, it doesn't work. The crontab calls this script, called pgpdecrypt with the following crontab line: */1* * * * root/bin/bash /etc/pgpdecrypt The /bin/bash wasn't originally there; I added it to make sure that the script was using the correct shell. Still no luck. Here's the script that it calls: echo /etc/pgpdecrypt.logger PGP Decrypter Starting Take the /bin/bash out of your crontab. Put #!/bin/bash at the beginning of your script. What do you think that will do to help? It's a NOP, so it can't fix the problem (which is because of bad assumptions about PATH, per my other message). Well, I don't know whether #! is a NOP or not. It does tell the script which executable to use in executing the script. Yeah, which he was already doing explicitly (see above) ;-) Which is irrelevant. The fact is that if you put the path at the beginning of the script, the script will run the same under cron as it does under the shell you tested it with. If the OP had put #!/bin/bash at the beginning of the script when he tested it, he would have been able to debug it without being confused by the fact that it ran under his shell and not under cron. No, this was because his environment was not as he expected it to be when run from cron, as I've explained to you twice. Just making the NOP change of adding #!/bin/bash when the script is already being run by /bin/bash will not affect the environment. I doubt very much that putting the wrong path into the environmental variables is going to help anything. PATH does not include /usr/local when run from cron, and his script assumes that it does (it calls gpg not /usr/local/bin/gpg). Then he can include it in his script. That's superior to creating a potential security problem by giving cron more information than it needs, particularly when cron is running as root. It's the script that needs to know the location of gpg, not cron. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
