extracting strings from terminfo
I have a C program which currently does not use any terminal control facilities. I don't want to make it into a full-screen application, or anything close, but I would like to extract the bold and sgr0 terminfo strings (or the md and me termcap strings, if on a system too ancient to have terminfo) so as to render the occasional word in bold. What is the best way to go about this? Everything I've found so far is written from the perspective of either writing termcap/info entries for new terminal types, or writing full-screen applications. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

As I understand, Flash 9 for uses ALSA for sound on Linux, and -- while it will be suported on FreeBSD -- will not give any sound. Right?

When I boot my computer with printer turned on and load ulpt driver the results is like above (ugens instead of ulpt).

May be the ugen driver built in kernel prevents ulpt driver from proper work and I should throw ugen driver out from kernel? No instead just have ulpt compiled statically in or load it by /boot/loader.conf (or do what you did here.)

SATA server recommendation
Can anyone recommend a server to run FreeBSD with the following features: 1) Supports multiple (say 4 or more) SATA disks (RAID optional) - capacity is more important than speed so SAS disks are overkill. 2) Decent on-site support for the whole machine, so probably from a big-brand manufacturer. Separately purchased add-on cards therefore a no-no, so no Highpoint/Areca or other SATA controllers unless they come with the machine. 3) Tower format. 4) Working ethernet, preferably twin. 5) USB would be nice. We started looking at Dell's, having had success with 2850s, but with the new product line I can't find a suitable controller I know is supported. The 1900 has a SAS 5/iR for which I can find no definitive information; the 1430 has a SAS 5/i for which again I can find no it works info. (Note: not the PERC 5 range which at £300+ are simply overkill). Has anyone got a Dell like one of these working? Or an HP? Sun? IBM?

The port will by default use the stored config in /var/db/ports/win32-codecs/options and if this says to use the quicktime codec then it will not upgrade. This seems pretty sensible to me.

periodic passwd change?
I can't see how to prescribe periodic passwd change, only how to set expiry time. At the moment I put the following line in the root's crontab: 2 2 2 * * pw usermod shterenl -p `date '+\%d-\%m-\%Y'` This makes a user's passwd expire once a month. Is there a better way to force users change their passwds periodically? thanks anton ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

wireless iwi breaking in 6.1-R-p10 to 6.1-R-p11 upgrade
I've been running 6.1-R-p10 for months now without any issues. After I upgraded last night, wpa_supplicant is broken. When I run it in debug mode, I see it repeat this error message: Starting AP scanbroadcast SSID) ioctl[SIOCS80211]: Invalid argument ioctl[SIOCS80211, op 23, arg 0x0]: Invalid argument Failed to initiate AP scan. Setting scan request: 10 sec 0 usec Any clue what the problem might be? My wpa_supplicant.conf file hasn't been changed for 2 months. I've been running the FreeBSD version of wpa_supplicant, but today I tried installing the wpa_supplicant-0.3.8_2 port to see if that would work, it did not and failed with the error messages. I verified that the correct kernel modules are being loaded. I switched back to the GENERIC kernel profile, rm -rf /usr/obj/*, and did another full make buildworld make kernel and installation procedure. At the boot prompt, if I unload the new kernel, then load /boot/kernel.old/kernel and boot, I still get the same wpa_supplicant errors.

Dieter Dieter Is TCP sitting around waiting for a second packet, so that Dieter it can be efficient and ack two packets at once? Chuck Yup. Coalescing data before sending it results in less overhead. Dieter What can I do to fix this? Is there a knob I can turn to say Dieter ack every packet, or only wait xxx microseconds for a 2nd packet ? Chuck You can turn on TCP_NODELAY via setsockopt() to disable the Nagle Chuck algorithm. There are probably sysctl's you can tweak, also... Bill sysctl -d net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack Bill net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack: Delay ACK to try and piggyback it onto a data packet Bill Bill That sysctl will turn it off for all network connections on the system. You Bill can also set it on a per-socket basis using setsockopt and the TCP_NODELAY Bill option. Some google searches on TCP_NODELAY will provide interesting Bill technical details.

Fwd: FreeBSD 6.1 throttling sendmail?
Following up with two specific question: 1) Could the MinFreeBlocks=100 setting in sendmail.cf be causing this problem? The /var slice is only 1.9 Gb here, with about half free. 2) Is it possible to overcome this constraint by: - setting up a new drive with identical slices, only expanding the /var slice, then; - copying the files on the existing drive onto the new drive? Will the FreeBSD other applications work this way or must they all be installed freshly from scratch? Thanks! --- the forwarded message follows --- ---BeginMessage--- After poring over sendmail manuals, docs, readme's and Googling extensively have not found the answer to this question. What configuration settings regulate the outgoing e-mail volume? Have recently upgraded from FreeBSD 4.3 to 6.1 (i.e., did new install of 6.1 on clean disk, installed current versions of applications and moved files - on same server as before, same processors/memory, etc.). Installed Sendmail 8.13 using standard sendmail.cf FreeBSD.cf in /etc/mail. Have a PostgreSQL database of 20k+ opt-in subscribers to a newsletter. When I invoke the sending routine, sendmail immediately spawns 20 - 30 processes (all I can see via top), quickly sends out 150 - 160 e-mails (via /var/spool/mqueue) then no more new processes are spawned and the system returns to a listening state. No error message in /var/log/messages, no clues in /var/log/maillog, nothing in the PostgreSQL logfile to indicate why the e-mails stopped sending. FreeBSD's sysctl shows more than ample system resources (mbufs, files, etc). Netstat -m reveals no denied requests. Is there another FreeBSD mechanism at play? A sendmail configuration setting I can tweak to ensure all e-mails are sent? Any other ideas on a cause of this behavior? Have x-posted to the comp.mail.sendmail group with no replies yet; sure would appreciate any help.

RSA/DSA authentication
Greetings, I'm not sure if this is the right place for this or the security mailing list, but I am extremely confused by RSA/DSA authentication and using it with OpenSSH. My current setup is that I have a freebsd box at home acting as a firewall/gateway/webserver. I'd like to access it from work using Putty on Windows 2000. Right now I have password authentication with a good strong username/password, Denyhosts and I feel safe. I just wanted to try a little extra security (for kicks) so I started reading and implementing RSA. Well now after reading what there was in the handbook, freebsddairy, and a really nice article about it on IBM I have no idea how to get this to work and am just a little frustrated. I believe I'm getting messed up on the public and private key and where they should go on the computer i'm trying to connect to or connect from? I used ssh-keygen and putty to generate a key (RSA w/passphrase) and both times I've gotten neither to work from what I've been able to tell. One time I was close and got something saying that my key's permissions had to be changed because they were to open so I fixed that warning and then it said that my key was accepted and I entered my passphrase. But then just to play around I removed my key (wanted to see if it wouldn't let me connect). It did and asked for my password not passphrase. What I was hoping for was that the server would see that i didn't have a key and deny my access but saddly it didn't. Now I'm editing some of my /etc/ssh/sshd_config file like uncommenting: (correct? I shouldn't be editing /etc/ssh/ssh_config?) RSAAuthentication yes PubkeyAuthentication yes AuthorizedKeysFile /root/.ssh/authorized_keys (I did rename the key I was using this and made sure it was all on one line) PasswordAuthentication no but I still don't have anything working. I've restarted sshd by doing: /etc/rc.d/sshd restart each time as well. Am I wrong to assume the server should deny me access if I don't have the key or is using RSA/DSA authentication just to assure myself that I'm actually connecting to my server and not some other person's trying to get my passwords? Thank you for reading this mess, as you can tell I'm pretty bewildered.

Extending a slice
Hello, I have and existing FreeBSD 5.4 box with 2 6GB hard drives in a RAID 1 mirror using gmirror. Due to physical space restrictions I cannot put more drives into this box and yet I need more physical drive space. I have 2 blank 40GB drives to replace my 2 current 6GB drives. I broke the mirror and inserted one 40GB drive into the mirror and removed the remaining 6GB drive. So, now I have a 40GB drive with only 6GB's of space on it and 34GB's of unused space. I have and existing mount point in the 6GB of space called /data. I would like to extend the slice and add the 34GB of unused space to the current /data mount point. Does someone even extend an UFS slice? Or do I create a new slice in the unused section and somehow merge the existing slice's /data with the new one? Or am I missing something rudimentary? Any direction would be appreciated. Thank You.

Fwd: FreeBSD 6.1 throttling sendmail?
Think I answered my first question myself - messages we're sending are all text, only ~5 - 10kb, so we should not be bumping up against the limit. Still interested in the second question though... --- the forwarded message follows --- ---BeginMessage--- Following up with two specific question: 1) Could the MinFreeBlocks=100 setting in sendmail.cf be causing this problem? The /var slice is only 1.9 Gb here, with about half free. 2) Is it possible to overcome this constraint by: - setting up a new drive with identical slices, only expanding the /var slice, then; - copying the files on the existing drive onto the new drive? Will the FreeBSD other applications work this way or must they all be installed freshly from scratch? Thanks! --- the forwarded message follows --- ---BeginMessage--- After poring over sendmail manuals, docs, readme's and Googling extensively have not found the answer to this question. What configuration settings regulate the outgoing e-mail volume? Have recently upgraded from FreeBSD 4.3 to 6.1 (i.e., did new install of 6.1 on clean disk, installed current versions of applications and moved files - on same server as before, same processors/memory, etc.). Installed Sendmail 8.13 using standard sendmail.cf FreeBSD.cf in /etc/mail. Have a PostgreSQL database of 20k+ opt-in subscribers to a newsletter. When I invoke the sending routine, sendmail immediately spawns 20 - 30 processes (all I can see via top), quickly sends out 150 - 160 e-mails (via /var/spool/mqueue) then no more new processes are spawned and the system returns to a listening state. No error message in /var/log/messages, no clues in /var/log/maillog, nothing in the PostgreSQL logfile to indicate why the e-mails stopped sending. FreeBSD's sysctl shows more than ample system resources (mbufs, files, etc). Netstat -m reveals no denied requests. Is there another FreeBSD mechanism at play? A sendmail configuration setting I can tweak to ensure all e-mails are sent? Any other ideas on a cause of this behavior?

I can do this in NetBSD, but the only knob I can find in FreeBSD affects all drives, and requires a reboot. Yes, I think you need to do it globally at boot time. Humour me and read the Subject line. The ls does not get its fair share of disk I/O. =20 Both times are with the disk's write cache in write-through mode. I'm not comparing times with the write cache in different modes. I'm comparing ls by itself against ls competing with cp. Your cp is going to be running synchronously, i.e. spend a lot of time waiting on the disk to perform the writes. This may well be the cause of your problem. Once we have established whether or not it is the cause, we can proceed to whether this behaviour can be improved. I submitted PR 106340 asking for a way to control the disk write cache on a per disk basis like NetBSD can. Meanwhile, I added a PATA via USB disk, which judging from the write speed, appears to be immune from hw.ata.wc=0. So I now have a disk which has the write cache on, is connected via a different controller, and thus uses a different device driver. I still see the same problems. Writing to one disk *significantly* slows down writing to another disk. Even if one process is at normal default priority and the other is running at rtprio 5. Regardless of which process uses the USB disk and which uses the direct-to-chipset disk. Even if the rtprio 5 process only needs a very small fraction of the disk bandwidth, it still gets slowed down to the point that data is lost. My current SWAG is that writing to a disk requires some spl/mutex/lock that is global across all disks on the system. And this spl/mutex/lock is a bottleneck. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So I now have a disk which has the write cache on, is connected via a different controller, and thus uses a different device driver. I still see the same problems. Writing to one disk *significantly* slows down writing to another disk. Even if one process is at normal default priority and the other is running at rtprio 5. Regardless of which process uses the USB disk and which uses the direct-to-chipset disk. Even if the rtprio 5 process only needs a very small fraction of the disk bandwidth, it still gets slowed down to the point that data is lost. My current SWAG is that writing to a disk requires some spl/mutex/lock that is global across all disks on the system. And this spl/mutex/lock is a bottleneck. In the case of USB devices, yes - all USB accesses require Giant so all USB I/O is serialized. This isn't true in general though, unless you have debug.mpsafevfs=0 set (or forced because of something else, e.g. quotas). If this is set then all filesystem I/O is serialized (and maybe it's even worse, if there are also device drivers in the I/O path that also require Giant, like USB). However, I don't know what you mean by data is lost. Data should never be lost from the filesystem regardless of how slow the I/O is happening, unless there's something else going wrong (e.g. driver bug). Also, rtprio should not be used in general - see the manpage. Were you using rtprio in your original scenario? It can easily cause resource starvation.

Also, rtprio should not be used in general - see the manpage. Were you using rtprio in your original scenario? It can easily cause resource starvation. I have data arriving on Ethernet. The data rate is 2.5 MB/s max, but the other end only has a small buffer. If the BSD box doesn't read the port fast enough, the data is lost. I have a C program (port2file) reading from the port into a *large* circular buffer, currently 431,226,880 bytes. This should be enough to buffer over 2 minutes of data. It does non-blocking 64KB writes to stdout. Shell script calls this program and redirects stdout to a disk file. Very little if any other i/o to this disk. Even with disk cache in write-through mode, I can write at about 6-7 MB/s. The process needs very little CPU. Sounds like this should be no problem. And it seems to work okay if the system is otherwise idle. The problem is that if some other process is writing to some other disk, it somehow slows down writes to ALL disks. Enough that, dispite the non-blocking writes (?), the TCP receive window shrinks and shrinks and finally is smaller than a packet. The src machine obediantly stops sending packets, its small buffer fills up, and data is lost. Things I have done so far: BIG buffer (over 2 minutes worth). The port2file process cranks up the TCP receive window from 65700 to 197100. It also cranks up rtprio from 20 to 5. sysctl net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack=0 The only process running rtprio is port2file.

how do I do this special proxy?
Hello. I know this question must have been asked on the list, I simply don't know how to describe my problem with good English so that I can start a google search. We got a Windows file server in the next office, I have a FreeBSD host in my office. I wish to let it listen on 135/139 port (I am not sure which one is used for Windows file sharing), and forward any request to the Windows file server as if this FreeBSD is accessing the windows share itself. Also it forward the packet from Windows share server to client. To the client, the FreeBSD host IS the windows share server. However the Windows share server always think the FreeBSD host is the client. So this is a proxy I guess. Is it possible? I ask this because I wish to access these files at home, but my home ISP block access to the Windows share server for ISP competition reason. Luckily I have a FreeBSD server in my office connected to both competing ISP. I think I can configure this FreeBSD act as a proxy to access the Windows share. P.S. Complain to these governmental ISP won't work.

Is it possible to install some software to run as a daemon and do this proxy? I think of stunnel, but I have too few knowledge to know if stunnel can do this. There are two general possibilities here: a) A Web cache/proxy -- squid is the canonical example, but you can do this sort of stuff in apache very readily. I think apache would be a good place for you to start, as most sysadmins have at least a passing acquaintance with its configuration. You'ld need set up a proxy on your European server to redirect any web traffic to en.wikipedia.org -- your users would use the service exactly as they do at the moment, but they'd put the IP of the European server into their hosts file, rather than your desktop. If that is a problem, then you can chain together a series of proxies starting with your desktop machine, then the European server -- but performance may be a tad slow. b) IPsec or other VPN tunnel between your server in Europe and a local firewall -- preferably your local firewall should be on the egress path from your LAN. Then you can arrange routing so that packets to destinations in Europe pass through the tunnel and use your European server as the gateway to the internet. In this case, there shouldn't be any need for your users to have to spoof the address of en.wikipedia.org in their hosts files. IPSec comes standard with FreeBSD, but you'ld probably want to combine it with pf(4) or other firewall software which you can use to control redirecting appropriate packets through your tunnel. If IPSec is too mind-mangling for you, OpenVPN (in ports) is a pretty good alternative. You'll almost definitely want to configure a NAT gateway on the European server. Either of these solutions will run automatically on system startup, if so configured. Option (a) will send your web traffic across the net in clear-text unless you can chain two proxies together and get creative about using HTTPS. Or you can combine both approaches: use a local HTTP proxy with a VPN tunnel to your European server.
