The default (GENERIC) kernel should use i386 binaries, can't say about kernel modules though. It should work, but it didn't. As I didn't touch those parameters, they were present in my kernel configuration. Is there anything else I should set or configure?

When I go to BIOS and enable it back, the system still boots, but dmesg shows no sign of Marvell's presence. I'm still not sure if the controller is just not configured correctly or if it is not supported under FreeBSD at all, however, I'm leaning towards the latter.

Re: dhcpd assigns address, but DNS resolvers and ping fail

And dhcpd offers a plausible IP address and gateway that the client (tested under both Linux and Windows) accepts. The client doesn't get the DNS resolver information and can't ping anywhere, even by raw IP address, even to the router. The router also fails to ping the client. Yeah, offhand it looks like it *should* work. Fairly complicated setup; make sure you really need those shared-networks if you're using them. Have you tried putting the domain-name-servers entries at the subnet or global scope? It *is* a fairly complicated setup. I noticed some kernel arp messages claiming the client wasn't on the network, so I've just gotten back from checking that I had things wired up right. I *think* I do. ifconfig reports that all the interfaces that are supposed to have connections do and the ones that aren't don't. And I've checked all the other networks recently enough to know that they're correctly connected. But there is this one aggravating message that doesn't make any sense to me. In order to explain it, I have to reveal a bit of the network setup. (ifconfig -a output attached) 66.93.170.241 is the LAN address on the T1 router from my ISP. It *is* on interface xl0. I know this (I think) because I can access the outside world without difficulty on this system. The network bits for this seem properly arranged. sf1 is the interface I use to my VOIP box, which has a web interface, and that's all I use that interface for. The VOIP box is just that, something I got from my ISP (Speakeasy). I'm getting arp messages that say 66.93.170.241 is on xl0 but got a reply from (some MAC address) on sf1. For whatever reason, I wasn't getting these messages when this was an OpenBSD box. Meanwhile sf0 is the network that has this public DHCP interface and I have other interfaces available (including one that OpenBSD didn't support--Thanks FreeBSD!) for if I ever need to plug the community I live in and share my T1 with back into *my* local router again. Now, in response to your suggestions, I am trying getting rid of the 192.168.17.x DHCP range in the configuration. This is not currently in use (and I think I actually meant to have that on a different interface anyway). I have also copied the declarations you suggested into the subnet setup; this got the correct DNS resolver information onto the client. But I'm still not able to ping (in either direction) and DNS resolution doesn't work on the client.

Re: Ports maintainer or adopting a port
On Saturday 31 March 2007, Kimi Ostro wrote: Not sure if this is appropriate for this list, basically I am looking to hear from past, current and future ports maintainers: is it fun? I maintain a couple ports. Both were new in that they weren't in the ports collection before I submitted them. Both were pieces of software that I wanted to use, and for me the ports system made the actual porting much easier than it otherwise would have been. I didn't have to figure out how to use gmake instead of make, didn't have to manually extract the tarball every time I wanted a clean start (just do make extract or make patch once you have a couple basic lines in the port's makefile). Similarly, once you have a basic packing list you can make install and make deinstall instead of trying to copy or delete things manually. I think it's a lot of fun as long as you don't bite off more than you can chew. what are the requirements? (besides time) In the case of software that isn't updated frequently, the requirements are pretty minimal, especially if you aren't doing the initial port. You should try to be proactive in keeping track of updates to the software (or at the very least respond quickly to e-mails to you as the port maintainer). For many programs you don't need to have much if any programming experience, just a willingness to read and understand the Porter's Handbook, and the ability to get your head around make(1) and Makefiles. Obviously programming experience is helpful in cases where things won't build cleanly or weren't written with portability in mind. what does it mean to you? do you recommend it? I definitely recommend it. One of my favorite things to get in my e-mail is Commited, thanks! I second Garrett's two cents about warm fuzzies and community contribution[1], and as a side benefit you get bragging rights which can be useful in the broader open-source community or even with regards to employment or things like discounted web hosting. best way to get started? what do I need to know about FreeBSD Ports? Partially covered above; you should be familiar with FreeBSD in general and how and where it is used. Participation in the community (esp. via the mailing lists) is at least as important actually using the OS regularly for real-world activities. To get started just pick something to work on and do it; preferably something that has some utility or importance to you. If you get stuck ask for help (here or on -ports, generally). When you get something that's usable and at least a little polished, send in a PR. The ports team does an awesome job of giving feedback and getting things committed quickly once they're ready. I am looking at adopting a port or two and looking to gain more insight, maybe someone that can do projects page for ports? which holds a list of unmaintained ports?? Others have suggested good ways to identify unmaintained ports. There is also a lot of software out there that's not in the ports tree but easily could be. Sourceforge projects, Perl modules on CPAN, and other websites might be good places to look around and see what's out there.

Using weekly backup disk to store partial full backup as well?
I currently backup important files to DVD weekly. These files are 2G in size total, so I waste ~2.7G on each DVD (these are DVD-Rs, so I can't wipe/re-use them). How can I use this wasted space to do a complete backup? Example: first week, backup the first 2.7G of my HD; second week, backup the second 2.7G of my HD, and so on. Once the full HD is backed up (over a number of weeks), roll over and backup the first 2.7G again, etc. My question here: given that the contents of my HD change constantly, is there a program that will tell me WHICH 2.7G to backup each week? In other words, a program that will tell me one of the following: % Here are 2.7G of files that you've never backed up to weekly DVDs. Some of these are files that were created/changed in the last week. Others are old files that you've just never backed up. I'm choosing these files in a specific way and keeping track of them. Once you've backed up these files, I'll choose a different 2.7G of files next week (unless some of the files you backup today change between now and next week). % There are only 1.0G of files that you've never backed up to weekly DVD, and here they are. I've chosen an additional 1.7G of files that you HAVE backed up, but they were backed up a long time ago, so it's a good idea to back them up again. Obviously, 2.7G is an arbitrary number here, and it may vary week to week. If my important files suddenly grow to 3G, I'll have only 1.7G left for the partial complete backup files. Improvements would include compression, an exclude list, not backing up two files w/ the same content, etc. I do make regular complete backups, but it'd be nice to have this extra layer of protection. I considered writing something myself using find/ctime, but am too lazy! -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology.

This is very annoying, I've set a crontab task every 5 minutes to re-update the date but it does not help (wich leads to my believe that time has stopped). So, what could this be, and can I work around the problem ? Every service this machine runs stops working at such a time (no ssh etc), the local keyboard still works. Hmm. My first guess would be interrupt problems, most likely with the timer interrupt itself but possibly something else interfering with it. Keep an eye on 'vmstat -i'. Time skew might be caused by a dead CMOS battery (in particular this seemed like a bigger issue with my P4 than it was with my P1 once the battery died -- it would lose 5 minutes every couple hours or so). Some vendors are lame too and ship motherboards with dead batteries (or the voltage in them dissipates over time because of parasitic impedances in the area). -Garrett ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Router with 2 internet connections
Right. Since you can only have one default route, you'd to use static routes out of the second interface make the decision based on destination IP address (layer 3 decision making here). To make it based on source address or some layer-4 decision, you'd need a layer4 switch and/or BGP. BGP is your best bet. ~BAS On Fri, 2007-03-30 at 19:09 -0700, Kevin Glick wrote: I've got a BSD router with two internet connections: dc0 (DSL) and dc1 (Cable) I also have an internal nic: rl0 (192.168.0.1) I've got PF setup and running nat.

I just don't get it, why is doing that! Please edit your posts to remove unneeded text, and post your reply after the section you're replying to. This makes it easier to read and respond. First, you can't use comments inside a printcap entry. Those backslashes at the end of the line are line continuation characters; the whole thing is really just one long line. Second, the default printer is usually called lp. Unless you have that, you'll have to tell lpr the printer name with -P each time you use it. Given that, here's an edit of your printcap: lp:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ :sh:\ :sd=/var/spool/zenzo:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/if-simple: This requires that /usr/local/libexec/if-simple is in place and executable, too. Now you should be able to print with lpr. However, your printer still doesn't know that linefeed also means carriage return. So we'll include carriage returns with a test print: lptest 66 79 | perl -ne 's/\n/\r\n/; print' | lpr This should print one page. If it works, you're almost there. -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]
