Re: brand new server timing out for sshd connections

2007-01-28 Thread Derek Ragona
You have too many variables.  Try eliminating the router and use a hub or 
switch, eliminate the DNS add a record to /etc/hosts for your pc.  Then see 
what happens.

system is based on nvidia chipsets, with the nve0 nic driver.  we switched
in a re0 to see if that helped, but its getting the same behavior.

server is connected to a small linksys 8 port switch that is fairly new.

i would uname, but at this moment im unable to get into it, it keeps
refusing me.  other things seem to work fine, but smtp seems to be
affected by this same problem as well.

hmm, dns is on an active directory DNS server, could this be the crappy
version of the AAA records?  im pretty much otherwise at a loss why this
system isnt behaving nicely.

structure alignment problems

2007-01-28 Thread usleepless

Hi,

i am working on getting mythtv-0.20 talking to the pvrxxx driver.

the problem appears when i want to do:
 v4l2_capabilities vcap;
 ioctl(videofd, VIDIOC_QUERYCAP, vcap);

the driver and mythtv have the struct differently aligned, and i get
an inappropiate ioctl for device. this is what the struct + IOR look
like:

struct v4l2_capability
{
   __u8driver[16]; /* i.e. bttv */
   __u8card[32];   /* i.e. Hauppauge WinTV */
   __u8bus_info[32];   /* PCI: + pci_name(pci_dev) */
   __u32   version;/* should use KERNEL_VERSION() */
   __u32   capabilities;   /* Device capabilities */
   __u32   reserved[4];
};
#define VIDIOC_QUERYCAP _IOR  ('V',  0, struct v4l2_capability)

the driver is compiled like this:

cc -O -pipe -Werror -D_KERNEL -DKLD_MODULE -nostdinc -I-  -I../../..
-I. -I@ -I@/contrib/altq -I@/../include -finline-limit=8000

-Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wcast-qual  -fformat-extensions -std=c99 -c
/usr/ports/multimedia/pvrxxx/work/modules/cxm/cxm/../../../dev/cxm/cxm.c

it yields a struct-size of 104 bytes.

mythtv is compiled like this:

g++ -c -pipe -I/usr/local/include/artsc -D_REENTRANT

cardutil.o cardutil.cpp

and it yields a struct-size of 128.

is it the -std=c99? is it because this is on amd64?

any help is greatly appreciated!

 I am new to Unix and purchased a copy of FreeBSD 5.2.1 from Fry's to begin

 packages 
 I needed, I bought this version.
 
 My system is thus:
- Compaq Presario with Pentium D
- 512 MB ram
- 200GB drive
- ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 graphics card
- NEC 1740CX multisync monitor
 
 After installation the 'startx' command will not start the GUI KDE. I get an 
 error message ' no screens found'.
 
 I have tried all the combinations of horizontal-vertical sync that are within 
 the range of my monitor but all fail. I have tried every one of the different 
 resolutions that are within the horizontal-vertical sync range of my monitor 
 but all fail. Here are additional problems:
- The XFree86 installer has no entry for the ATI RADEON device
- The XFree86 installer has no entry for the NEC 1740CX monitor
 
 Since I am completely new to Unix I do not know how to send you the log file. 
 I am using a different system to install Unix than my Internet connected 
 system.
 
 I am sure others have seen problems with the graphics portion of 
 installation. This must be a common problem. I had exactly the same problem 
 installing 
 Suse Linux before trying to use FreeBSD. I found that with Suse, if I 
 installed 
 at the lowest resolution the OS would resolve the problem during the first 
 boot 
 and reset the resolution to the max. size. FreeBSD does not do this.

Nvidia Marvell 88E1116 supported in 6 CURRENT?

2007-01-28 Thread stan

Is the Nvidia Marvell 88E1116 Gigabit NIC working on 6.2 STABLE?

I have a machine with one of these on the maotherboard, and it is not
detected by the install CD. I put an fxp card in, and did te install, then
cvsuped, rebuilt everythign, (using the GENERIC kernel defs), but it's
still not detected on boot.

This machine has a fairly small number of avaialble add in card slots, and
I really need to get this working, so that I can fill these with other
cards that are required for this system.

Am I overlooking something here?

Negation in tables for packet filter

2007-01-28 Thread Erik Norgaard

Hi:

I want to create two tables in my packet filter, the first should match 
any valid public ip, so I created a table negating anything reserved:


table internet const { !0/8 !10/8 !127/8 !169.254/16 !172.16/12 \
   !192.0.2/24 !192.168/16 !198.18/15 !224/4 !240/4 }

So with the above I should be able to correctly NAT anything going to 
the internet and the rest should not be NAT'ed - either it is locally 
routable or should be blocked.


nat on $dsn_if from { super users free } \
to internet - ($dsn_if)

This doesn't work as expected, instead I have to remove all negations in 
the table and create a non-internet table and negate that in the nat 
rule. Shouldn't they work equivalently? (I also want to use the 
internet table in my filter rules, so I like to define a table).


The second should match unknown local hosts, I have three tables with 
different registered hosts with different access levels, I want to 
redirect unknown hosts to a page explaining what to do to get registered,


rdr on $wlan_if proto tcp from { $wlan_net !super !users !free } \
to internet port http - 127.0.0.1 port 8000

This doesn't work either, the table is expanded to four rdr rules, and 
they are applied before the nat - even if I place it after in the 
ruleset, so I can't just remove the !table and have the rdr catch up 
all that is not nat'ed in the previous nat-rule.


So, how do I create my nat rules so they work as expected - or that is, 
that work as I want?


Thanks, Erik

freebsd 6.2 jumpstart install

2007-01-28 Thread Paul Kostick III
Hello,


I am trying to jumpstart install an IBM x336 server with a intel Pro100 nic
with freebsd 6.2.  I have successfully done this install with freebsd 5.3
and 6.0 on the same machine.  The sysinstall boot menu comes up from PXE.
But when I put in the NFS path to the files, it won't mount.  My mount point
is 192.168.1.50:/tftpboot/freebsd6.2/

I can mount this nfs mount point from another client, but not from the
jumpstart/sysinstall menu.  Any suggestions?  Another oddity is that I
noticed is when setting up the NIC, it does not get an ip address.  It seems
to have a network issue, the network works on startup with the network/pxe
boot.  It gets its ip, boots to the sysinstall menu.

Has anyone else jumpstarted 6.2 succesfully?  

 

Thanks,

Paul

Noob: Kernek Compile Question

2007-01-28 Thread dharam paul
Hi Gurus,
In the section  Building and Installing a Custom
kernel it is stated that 
quote;
'The new kernel will be copied to the /boot/kernel
directory as /boot/kernel/kernel and the old kernel
will be moved to /boot/kernel.old/kernel'

Do I have to do this manually or it is done by the
system automatically?

Secondly, I am upgrading my FreeBSD system from
FreeBSD RELENG_6_0 to RELENG_6_2 by cvsup.

I want to do some changes in the kernel after
updating. My question is is it necessary for me to
1. First make kernel according to RELENG_6_2 
and then
2. Make requied changes in kernel (to include IPFW and
 some changes for Squid)
Or
I can do the above two steps in one single step. How?

Regards

The information above is not enough for anyone to help you:

- what have you in your dhcpd.conf?
- does the kernel you boot support nfs?
- did you compile your kernel for the pxe client with bootp?

If you have a network issue, then that may also explain why you can't 
mount. Does the kernel support the nic you have?


Anyway, for jumpstart install I think it is much simpler to install via 
ftp rather than messing around with nfs. I haven't tried 6.2, only 6.1, 
and I haven't seen any changes since 6.1 that should affect jumpstart


Cheers, Erik

You can do all that in one go.  In fact, if you already
have a custom 6.0 kernel config file with your modifications
in it, you will probably only need to tweak it slightly (if
at all), and then you can use it to build a 6.2 kernel.
(Especially if your conf file basically says include GENERIC
or include SMP and then has just the differences between that
and your config -- chances are in that case it won't need any
tweaking at all)

Given that you're jumping a couple of version numbers here, be
sure to follow the instructions in the handbook about booting up
your new kernel *before* installing the rest of the world that
goes with it -- it's a damn sight easier to back out to just an
older kernel version if your new one won't boot than it is to back
out the entire OS...

Cheers,

Matthew

sysinstall usually puts some lines like:

in /etc/rc.conf.

so the date on that one may be useful.  Also, the creation
dates on your ssh keyfiles, files of the form:
/etc/ssh/ssh_host*
could date to the building of the system.

Re: sshd never restarts

2007-01-28 Thread Mike Barnard

Hi,


# grep ssh /etc/rc.conf

sshd_enable=YES



do you have the path also in rc.conf.

sshd_program=/usr/local/sbin/sshd

i believe the defaults load this sshd_program=/usr/sbin/sshd

even better, why not use openssh_portable, openssh has many security holes
that you may want to avoid

hope that helps

Re: [freebsd-questions] freebsd 6.2 jumpstart install

I am trying to jumpstart install an IBM x336 server with a intel Pro100 nic
with freebsd 6.2.  I have successfully done this install with freebsd 5.3
and 6.0 on the same machine.  The sysinstall boot menu comes up from PXE.
But when I put in the NFS path to the files, it won't mount.  My mount point
is 192.168.1.50:/tftpboot/freebsd6.2/

I can mount this nfs mount point from another client, but not from the
jumpstart/sysinstall menu.  Any suggestions?  Another oddity is that I
noticed is when setting up the NIC, it does not get an ip address.  It seems
to have a network issue, the network works on startup with the network/pxe
boot.  It gets its ip, boots to the sysinstall menu.

Has anyone else jumpstarted 6.2 succesfully?  
  
I have successfully jumpstarted 6.0,6.1 and 6.2 with Intel NICs on Dell 
servers. So it does work. I solved almost all my problems just by 
turning up logging on DHCP and TFTPd. I also rebuilt pxeboot with the 
TFTP option[1] rather than NFS, simply because I don't know of a way to 
get NFS to log, whereas TFTP does, so you can see what files are failing 
when it all goes wrong. :-)


Howie

[1] look in the pxeboot Makefile, and there is a make.conf option to do 
TFTP instead of the usual NFS.

FreeBSD 6.2 install CD causes immediate reboot

 Any ideas?  Grant

I can't find any mention of quota in the web interface of CUPS running
on my laptop here.  There is a possibility that quota is enabled for
some printer, by setting options in the printers.conf file though.

Can you show us the contents of the file:

/usr/local/etc/cups/printers.conf

from your system?

If it contains the options which enable quotas for a certain printer,
you should see something like `PageLimit', then this is the `quota' that
you see mentioned above.

Here is my cups printers.conf file.

It appears that this too has no quota on it. Also, the job which I kicked off

You could try booting an older version of FreeBSD (4.x probably since 5.x is
very similar to 6.x) and see if that works.  You could also
fiddle with various BIOS settings.  You could also try the boot floppies.

If none of that works I would give up trying to install FreeBSD on that

Try booting the CD without acpi / apm support too. apm support with dell
is fruity, and acpi shouldn't have really been supported all the way
with the machine either.

Moreover, you can try making a boot floppy with the BIOS update as the
current BIOS version may not support Unix installs.

I agree though--if you can't boot freebsd, you should give up. There are
versions of Linux that may run on the laptop though, so you can give
that a shot as well..

Also just for the sake of the archives, Win95 ver. b (basically SP2) did
have USB support but it really sucked; I couldn't the machine to
recognize a number of USB devices with this version of 95. However,
Win98 made a big difference in this arena since they started properly

 the driver and mythtv have the struct differently aligned, and i get

 like:

Welcome to the world of structure alignment issues :)

 struct v4l2_capability

 #define VIDIOC_QUERYCAP _IOR  ('V',  0, struct v4l2_capability)

 the driver is compiled like this:

 it yields a struct-size of 104 bytes.

 cardutil.o cardutil.cpp

 and it yields a struct-size of 128.

 is it the -std=c99? is it because this is on amd64?

Most probably it's the -O2 flag, because -O2 enables -fstrict-aliasing
on top of the usual -O optimizations.  You can probably disable this
per-structure, by using the special __packed macro for this structure
when building both the kernel *and* userland structures.

 I'd recommend native Opera.  I've heard recently from people at Opera
 who are very keen to ensure that it works well on FreeBSD, so it makes
 sense to help them.

I've always used the native version of Opera on FreeBSD and it's always

[Fwd: Looking to upgrade my hardware and run 6.2-RELEASE]

2007-01-28 Thread Glenn Sieb
I said...
 Since I tend to build my own boxes, I'd like to make sure my choice of
 CPU/MB is good fro FBSD before I buy :-)
 
 I'm looking at an AMD X2 64 5400 and an Abit AN9 32X.
 
 The AN9 has:
 
 NVIDIA nForce SPP 190/nForce 590 SLI MCP
 Dual NV Gigabit LAN
 6x SATA 3gb/s ports with RAID 0/1/0+1/5 JBOD support
 (plus 2x SATA ports non-RAID)
 
 I know that NVIDIA chipsets (at least used to) require separate
 downloads of the chipset drivers. Is this still the case?
 
 I've been using Abit MBs for years now, but I'm not necessarily tied to
 them, if there are better suggestions from the list.
 
 So anywho.. I'd appreciate any advice the list can provide. I'm a huge
 fan of FBSD, and have been using it consistently since 2000 now. :)
 
 Thanks in advance, everyone!

I really would appreciate some advice, if people would be so kind. :)
Will FBSD 6.2-Release work ok with this hardware? I'm not really married
to any of this, so if people have better suggestions for
motherboards/CPUs whatever--I'd seriously appreciate it. Backchannel is
fine. :)

Thanks again in advance,
Best,
--Glenn
