Problem mounting a USB hard drive
Hello FreeBSD users! Briefly, I am having problems mounting my 2.5 USB hard drive. I am running 6.1-RELEASE FreeBSD on a Samsung Sens 820 notebook (I attach the dmesg and the relavent extracts from /var/log/messages at the end of my post) and I have several external USB storage devices that I normally attach to my PC (Sony DSC digital camera (with 123MB flash card), 80Gb 3.5 Western Digital hard drive, 32 Mb flash drive and 74Gb 2.5 Samsung hard drive). The first 3 of them mount without any problems: the digital camera (using #mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt), the 80Gb 3.5 hard drive which has two ntfs partitions (using mount_ntfs /dev/da0s2 /mnt/s2, etc) as well as the flash drive (#mount_msdosfs ...). But mounting the 2.5 74Gb USB hard drive fails (one NTFS partition). In fact it can not be even synchronized with the system. I tried rebuilding the kernel with the option options SCSI_DELAY=10001 but it didn't help. Here are the extracts from the system messages. From dmesg: umass0: VIA Technologies Inc.

Corrupted C Compiler
106Hi; I entered the following stupid command: cp -R /* /ad2 thinking that would copy the contents of my working HD to my new 1/2 teraflop HD (ad2). What it did was manage to wipe out some very important files (thank goodness I had up-to-date backups) and it appears to have corrupted gcc...my C compiler. I deduce this because when I go to build Zope (as an example) from source I have to run a script afterwards that repairs the broken C files. (This, strangely, is not the case if I build Zope from port.) So, my questions for you programmers more experienced than I, are: 1) Does my assessment make sense? Is gcc corrupt? 2) Whether it is or not, how should I troubleshoot/fix my problem? It seems to me I should re-install FBSD, but how? TIA, Rachel Do you Yahoo!?

Re: Configuring DNS (BIND) in isolation
Hello, I have a need to make my own DNS system on an isolated network. Years ago, I administered DNS for a couple of different companies, but that was quite a while ago and since I've turned to programming I haven't done much in the way of network administration. I recall from using BIND 4, when I was reading up on it, that it is most certainly possible to configure an entire DNS system on a totally isolated network. Would I need zone files for the root, ., zone and any other zones I configure; e.g. isolation.? This would seem to be the way to go about it, but I'm having some difficulty visualizing it in my head. I just did some searches online for the O'Reilly book DNS BIND. I recall using this book in the past and it was quite helpful (and unfortunately for me, belonged to my former employers). Would this book be a good reference for this task as well, or are there better books that I might want to look into getting for this? Or, are there good on-line resources that could help me muddle through? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Andy Hello Andy, First, you need to know that BIND has jumped from version 4 directly to version 8 and is now at version 9. There is a whole world of difference between the version 4 that you've worked with in the past and the latest version 9 (such as Views, DNSSEC, IXFR, etc). Now, the book you mentioned above is still THE reference on the topic. O'Reilly recently published the 5th edition of DNS BIND which covers everything BIND 9 has to offer. Plus an extended chapter on the DNS architecture itself. It's a great book, you should get yourself a copy if you're interested by DNS. Third, while DNS BIND is a fine book, you'll have more direct help from another O'Reilly book called DNS BIND Cookbook from Cricket Liu. It presents some common DNS related tasks in the form of easy to follow recipes. It sure is a great help when it actually is time to build and configure your DNS servers. Moreover, FreeBSD is an excellent platform for building DNS servers. I've built DNS servers out of Solaris, AIX, RedHat and FreeBSD machines and BSD is by far the easiest and more flexible to setup and secure. shameless plug Finally, if for various reasons you don't have the time or expertise to setup your own DNS machine.

Re: Corrupted C Compiler
On Mon, 4 Dec 2006, Rachel Florentine wrote: I entered the following stupid command: cp -R /* /ad2 thinking that would copy the contents of my working HD to my new 1/2 teraflop HD (ad2). What it did was manage to wipe out some very important files (thank goodness I had up-to-date backups) and it appears to have corrupted gcc...my C compiler. I deduce this because when I go to build Zope (as an example) from source I have to run a script afterwards that repairs the broken C files. (This, strangely, is not the case if I build Zope from port.) So, my questions for you programmers more experienced than I, are: 1) Does my assessment make sense? Is gcc corrupt? No, or the port would not be able to build correctly. That is the main point of the ports system, of course: to correctly build software on FreeBSD. 2) Whether it is or not, how should I troubleshoot/fix my problem? It seems to me I should re-install FBSD, but how? An additional feature of the ports system is that it makes deinstalling ported software easy. Since you've installed software without using the port, making sure all of the files and side-effects are removed when deinstalling is much more difficult. My suggestion would be to reinstall FreeBSD from scratch. Do a clean install of FreeBSD, then back it up with dump as shown in the Handbook. In fact, any time a question comes up, check the Handbook first for the preferred way to solve it. Add applications from ports so they'll be installed correctly for FreeBSD and will be easy to update. Make backups with dump as you go, so you can restore to a known-good setup. Once you get a Zope instance installed, make an additional backup of it by copying the Data.fs file somewhere safe. With all that done, you can start experimenting. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Corrupted C Compiler
- Original Message From: Josh Paetzel [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's not immediately clear to me what you mean by repairing broken C files. The port uses the Zope source and the system compiler, presumably the same source and compiler you are using to build it by hand. Are you sure you aren't just 'doing it wrong' ? Positive. If you really suspect gcc is corrupted then some sort of binary repair is really your only option. A make buildworld/make installworld is unlikely to be feasible. So how do I do that?

Re: Configuring DNS (BIND) in isolation
You're on the right track. Yes, you'ld need a zone file for the root of your DNS -- if it's all served from one machine then that would replace the 'hint' zone and named.root stuff in the example named.conf The zone file for '.' would contain an SOA record and then delegation for whatever forward and reverse domains you want to use. Eg. supposing you want to use the TLD 'in.isolation' with IP numbers from 192.168.0.0/24 then you'ld need something like: ; ; Root of the private domain name system ; $TTL 604800; 1 week @ IN SOA ns0.in.isolation. hostmaster.in.isolation. ( 2006120100 ; Serial 1800 ; Refresh (30min) 900; Retry (15min) 604800 ; Expire (1week) 86400 ); Minimum (1day) in.isolation.IN NS ns0.in.isolation. 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa. IN NS ns0.in.isolation. ns0.in.isolation.IN A 192.168.0.1 ; Glue ; ; That's All Folks! ; Ok, here's the problems I've got so far. I've made the following files, isolated.zone, isolated.rev, localhost.rev, localhost-v6.rev and root.zone The isolated.* files are for the forward addresses and the reverse pointers for 192.168.0.0/24 that I've set up. The root.zone file contains, what I thought should be, for the . zone. (Matthew, from your message above, I wasn't clear if all I'd need is what you have above, or that it was implied that I'd need a SOA for the . zone as well. So, I made one.) Now, I'm getting a few errors. Sometimes it seems that named can't find the files that I told it to look for in named.conf. I used the original named.conf file as a reference, and just filled in the blanks as it were, for my zones. Also, named keeps complaining about rndc.key files missing. How do I generate these key files? I didn't find anything from 'man rndc'?

Re: What is the difference between No address associated with name and Unknown host
If you have the dig command available on your machine, you can read its documentation, and play with it. It will make things clear. Look below: in the first case, there is no A record, but there is a SOA record. However, the hostname of the SOA is different from the queried hostname. In the second case, there is no A record, there is a SOA and the hostname of the SOA and the queried hostname are the same. So in the first case, we cannot know if the host is registered at all. In the second case, the hostname is registered for sure, but it has no A record.

Looking for a cookbook on Oracle clients...
All, I have a task that requires I extract a data set from a MySQL server, and push it on to an Oracle (9i) server. I figured I'd go the ODBC route, and installed unix_odbc_driver and its dependencies. However, its pretty clear that I don't fully understand what I'm doing, and each step forward is costing me half a day of debugging, reading code, and banging my head against the wall. From the documents I can find on the web, it seems all I should have to do is install, configure my odbc.ini and odbcinst.ini files, and go. So, the questions: 1.) Is anyone using unixODBC and oracle_driver_odbc against a 9i server? 2.) If so, can someone send me their .ini files and any other environment and oracle settings they needed to do to make it work (mine are below)? 3.) Have people moved over to the instantclient in ports? If so, does anyone have some sample code to test the basic ability to connect? -Brian [Oracle] Description = Oracle Configuration Driver = Oracle Trace = Yes TraceFile = /var/log/odbc.log Database= eengstg Servername = oracle_server UserName= Password= Port= 1521 [Oracle] Description = Oracle driver for FreeBSD Driver = /usr/local/lib/liboraodbc.so Setup = /usr/local/lib/liboradbS.so ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Corrupted C Compiler
On Mon, 4 Dec 2006, Rachel Florentine wrote: Hi; I entered the following stupid command: cp -R /* /ad2 thinking that would copy the contents of my working HD to my new 1/2 teraflop HD (ad2). What it did was manage to wipe out some very important files (thank goodness I had up-to-date backups) and it appears to have corrupted gcc...my C compiler. I deduce this because when I go to build Zope (as an example) from source I have to run a script afterwards that repairs the broken C files. (This, strangely, is not the case if I build Zope from port.) So, my questions for you programmers more experienced than I, are: 1) Does my assessment make sense? Is gcc corrupt? I don't think it makes much sense, no. Zope is python-based and unless you're building products that rely on native libraries, what you describe doesn't sound like an accurate diagnosis. It's more likely (this is a stab in the dark) that you're running a script to regerate .pyc files; these are precompiled python bytecode files that are built from the corresponding .py files. That's a part and parcel of readying Zope for production - however, Zope will run without those .pyc files (the .py files are compiled on first load instead). I suspect that that's what's going on.

Fresh binary media = either reinstall from an iso image, or extract a copy of the damaged files from the freebsd release media in another way (e.g. fetch the base.* files from the ftp site, and pass through cat | tar -xfj -). If it was some other file you damaged, you could repair it by just recompiling from source, but the compiler is a critical part of the FreeBSD system and you obviously can't fix a broken compiler by recompiling with itself.

Marwan, First read /usr/src/UPDATING. Really. No, really. I mean read it :) And, since no one expects you to really, really read it, I'll give you some shortcuts. First, look for the word KERNCONF in /usr/src/UPDATING Read all of the language around every occurence of that word (KERNCONF). Then, when you are ready, do this: make buildkernel KERNCONF=SMP make installkernel KERNCONF=SMP Then reboot. Note here that I'm giving you the shortest possible route, which may be problematic for you. You really must become familiar with /usr/src/UPDATING. Anyway, after the reboot, you should type: cat /var/log/messages | grep -i launch if you see the terms CPU1 Launched! then you've got yourself an SMP kernel.

(repost) cannot read windows share
This is a re-post, I am getting desperate because my work require me to connect to this share and my colleague can mount the share on Debian. I will have to move to install Debian if I wish to go on working... But I am already used to my BSD. It's too strange to move to another OS for such a tiny problem! Could what I mention below be a bug of FreeBSD mount_smbfs? Using FreeBSD 6.1, I can mount a windows share but the Chinese characters in folder and file names look junk text to me. Charset conversion (-E parameter of mount_smbfs) do not work at all. If I do ls(1) to a directory that has Chinese character in its name, the process 'ls' will take about 80% CPU resource and hang there forever. Ctrl+C cannot stop it (kill -KILL can). If I run other command that read any file in the directory that has Chinese character in its name, that application hangs there taking about 80% CPU resource too. This process is better illustrated with this screenshot: gopher://sdf.lonestar.org/I/users/weiwu/mount_chinese_smbshare.png In the screenshot, I do have mounted the share with -E parameter which should convert GB18030 folder names to UTF-8 but actually no conversion is done (see the ls | iconv which shows what it should be looking like if the conversion is done) Actually I have never successfully done charset conversion with mount_smbfs, what did I do wrong? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi all. I'm looking to merge two of my machines in my home office into one to free up the second one for other uses, but one is a windows machine, the second is my freebsd 5.3x machine. Can I just move the HD from the Freebsd machine over to the windows machine and add something to the boot.ini file to make it bootable from the windows boot prompt, or do I have to do something else? Or can I just mirror the HD from the BSD box into an image file, then just mount and boot that image using Vmware and run it as a virtual machine? I'm trying to find the simplest, most hassle free way to merge the two machines without much tinkering with the existing installs. Any suggestions is welcome. I only picked merging the bsd box into the windows machine because the windows machine has the better hardware.

I read carefully with mount_smbfs and as far as I can tell mount_smbfs is using iconv lib which compiled as kernel module. After I run mount_smbfs I checked and made sure libiconv.ko is automatically loaded. According to documents, mount_smbfs automatically load this kernel module for charset conversion. My charset specified in commandline is CP936 which is supported by iconv. iconv can also support GB18030 GB2312 GBK which are equivalents of CP936. I tried all these equivalents but none of them works. I also tried to specify -E UTF-8:junkjunk and got an error message says junkjunk is not supported, this shows if I don't get such error message, the charset I specified should be supported. Well, I didn't get such error message with GB18030 GB2312 GBK...

Thank you very much for this very informative article. Here is what I quoted from that article: However, there are some limitations. - unable to handle over 3 byte characters at all. - tolower/toupper conversion is only possible for single byte characters. For example, UTF-8 has 1-4 byte characters. GB18030 has 1,2,4 byte characters. At this time, we're unable to handle them. So it is clear I will have problem, because it's being said, UTF-8 is not possible. But UTF-16/USC2 should be possible and GB2312 should be possible too because both are 2-bytes (UTF-16 are mostly 2-bytes). Thus I should be able to: 1) adjust system locale to UTF-16 or USC2 2) use mount_smbfs -E UTF-16:GB2312 GB2312 is the stripped version of GB18030 that remove all GB18030 4-byte characters from GB18030 (by discarding them). But I think FreeBSD-6.1 do not include this nice person's work! Thus even mount_smbfs -E UTF-16:GB2312 won't work for me. Now I am really interested if I can get smbmount (part of samba) working, if so, problem solved, otherwise there is no way to go.

Re: Corrupted C Compiler
76 - Original Message From: Jan Grant [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't think it makes much sense, no. Zope is python-based and unless you're building products that rely on native libraries, what you describe doesn't sound like an accurate diagnosis. It's more likely (this is a stab in the dark) that you're running a script to regerate .pyc files; these are precompiled python bytecode files that are built from the corresponding .py files. I don't have my references in front of me, but I ran into an error when I tried to runzope that I didn't understand, so I yahoo'd it and discovered that my c libraries were corrupted. It was recommended I run a certain command to clean them up. I ran that command and everything went smoothly. I repeated this process a few times. So yes, I'm sure that's what I did.
