FreeBSD locks up on J7F4 motherboard
Hi Has anyone any experience with the Jetway Motherboards and FreeBSD? My motherboard is a Jetway 7F4K1G2E-PB has dual gigabit lan (realtek) detected as re0 and re1. I'm trying to install FreeBSD 6.2 Release, but as soon as it tries to dhcp on re1, it freezes. I have to power off and on. I've also tried booting an already installed FreeBSD 6.2 stable, but this also resulted in a freeze when re1 comes up. It just freezes, no messages or anything. Somewhere on the net, I saw someone who said that it only happens after a cold-reset. I've been part able to confirm this, but even after getting freebsd up and running with both nics up, after a while it just locks up. I've tried changed from auto-sense to e.g. base1000tx full-duplex, but that did not resolve the issue either. I'm not entirely sure that the problem are the nics, but it seems to point in that direction. Windows XP runs fine, so it shouldn't be a hardware error. However running XP is not the solution to my problems :-) Does anyone know this problem, or perhaps (even better) a solution to it? Thanks.

The problem is that on FreeBSD this rules are not working, instead I

This bandwidth option does not help me because I must not exceed 1 Mb.
This can't be done with cbq, because in cbq the sum of child queues must match
the interface bandwidth or less. Use hfsc for this.
Also, you reserve 80% for ack and 20% for bulk, you might wanna reverse that.
So my question is: how I do bandwidthupper limit with CBQ per user, like
no more than 1 Mb, and add rules for 100 users?
See above.
A good resource on HFSC:
http://www.probsd.net/pf/index.php/HFSC
It would look something like this:
# Use interface bandwidth, so your interface doesn't get limited
altq on $br1_if bandwidth 100Mb hfsc(upperlimit 100Mb) queue { \
NO_CUSTOMER, \
CUSTOMERS
}
# Any traffic not assigned to a customer comes on the NO_CUSTOMER queue.
# Backlogged traffic consumes a maximum of 80Mbit
# There's always 55Mbit available.
# Realtime values may not exceed 75% of root queue
queue NO_CUSTOMER bandwidth 80Mb hfsc(realtime 55Mb default)
# Create a customers root queue, setting hard limits for any customers

# Assign 1% per customer (100 customers) for backlogged traffic.

{ customer_1_bulk, customer_1_ack }
# default priority is 1
queue customer_1_bulk bandwidth 80% hfsc
queue customer_1_ack bandwidth 20% priority 2 hfsc
Thank you for your answer!
Well, I've simplified the example. My real situation is that I have 2500
users, sharing 100 Mb fiber optic line..
For 2500 users 1% will be too much. Can I use 0.25% ?
Also regarding HFSC, I know is an linear algorytm, which means many does
not scale well for lots of users. I know is hardcoded at 64, I've
modified and used with success for up to 500 queues. For more queues it
is working very slow, even with Xeon CPUs. So for 2500 users I would
probably need 4-5 separate machines.
I've used rules similar to your HFSC example, and I had to switch to
ipfw + dummynet because of poor performance (on one machine) of HFSC
with so many queues. (using ipfw+dummynet, multiple pass, to a limiting
pipe then to queues to share load is working ok for browsing but I have
2 issues: first the traffic is not stable, it variates to much, second
the traffic does not reach 100 Mbps which is my bandwidth (if i disable
the firewall,when trafic goes to 100 Mbps). I have to mention that CPU
is 95% idle.
So my question is, what would be a choice to shape bandwidth with
FreeBSD for like 2000 users, with bandwidth limiting, and sharing using
clases. On linux it works for 1000-2000 users using HTB, (tc, traffic
control) and scales well, but I want to use FreeBSD, there must be a way
to get similar performance on FreeBSD too.

Re: Howto: Prepare USB key with FreeDOS using FreeBSD
O. Hartmann wrote: Does anyone do have an idea? Ah, the disproportionate march of progress... The easy way out would be to procure a USB floppy drive. If the machines support booting from a USB stick, they can handle booting a USB floppy in legacy mode. If you're really bent on using a USB thumbdrive, you're in for quite a ride. Due to the way DOS is designed, it needs a pretty nonstandard (nowadays) method of booting. You could 'format' the thumbdrive with FAT12 or FAT16 and put the files on there, but you would need to find a way to do so from within DOS itself, as neither Linux nor FreeBSD can create FAT filesystems that boot DOS. Your best bet is to use an already existing bootable DOS floppy image, loading the files onto there (using mdconfig to mount it), and using GRUB (or another modern boot loader) and memdisk (part of syslinux) to boot the floppy image off the thumbdrive. This worked for me when building a thumbdrive capable of booting Norton Ghost, PM8, FreeDOS, and a few other DOS-only utility diskettes. I believe it's also the method used by the Ultimate Boot CD.

This came up recently in another thread, and what seemed to be the
best solution to me, was this:
1. work out which leaf-ports you actually need - don't worry about
the dependencies.
2. at your leisure build new packages under a chroot environment,
or on another machine.
3. back-up /usr/local/etc (or the whole of /usr/local)
4. rm -rf /usr/local/*
5. Restore /usr/local/etc and install packages.
Why would you go through 3-5 when you can just
mv /chroot/build/directory/var/db/pkg /var/db/pkg ?
For the reasons that that you snipped off the bottom of my post.
... avoids leaving any orphaned files,and most
importantly makes sure that all of the installed package have an
entry in /var/db/pkg. If you miss any of these entries, it may
cause a lot of trouble down the line.
/chroot/build/directory/var/db/pkg is only a rough guess as to
what was actually installed under /usr/local/.
So don't guess if you're that paranoid. It can be much much harder to restore
some directories under /usr/local to a working state,
like /usr/local/pgsql, /usr/local/www and some perl ports like rrd.
Depending how long builds take, it may be faster let a script run
over /usr/ports/*/* that runs make generate-plist for each port, appends
grep -v '^@' ${TMPPLIST} into a file, thus building an index of every file
that a port can install, then let a script run over /usr/local that queries
that index for each file it encounters. Like I said, for the ultra paranoid.
Maybe some forgotten
dependency doesn't get included in the new build. A year from now you
may find odd build problems, or new port installs may use orphaned
files with critical vulnerabilities that portaudit can't detect.
Nope. Orphaned files create stale deps, which are easily found with pkgdb -F,
because the dependency check checks if ${LOCALBASE}/bin/foo exists and if it
does adds the dependency to /var/db/pkg.
Also, `make missing' for a given port easily lists all dependencies that
aren't in $PKG_DBDIR, so if you run make missing after a new install for a
while, you'll easily identify those.

I.o.w. do we 2 current or 2 stable branches now? Those are just names, don't worry too much about it. RELENG_7 will be the start of a new -STABLE branch once it is released. That is actually what I'm worried about. It means drivers are less likely to be MFC'd to RELENG_6 from 7.0-RELEASE onwards - I was hoping that wouldn't happen till 7.1. It's called progress. This is normal. If you need a driver that is happening in 7- only, then upgrade to 7. RELENG_6 will turn into a supported fix branch or whatever the name is and RELENG_7 is where the action takes place, just like it has been going on for quite some time (please correct me if I'm wrong). Well, 6.0-RELEASE was still on -current. No, it wasn't. 6.0-RELEASE was the first release from the 6-STABLE branch. 4.0-RELEASE was also considered a -STABLE release. -- Insert your favourite quote here.

PPPoE dialer CPU usage
Hi. I was wondering if anyone had any idea what might be causing excessive CPU usage by the rp-pppoe dialer. What I've been running into is since the 5th, the message Unexpected packet code 9 has been showing up every 10 seconds in syslog, the CPU usage is maxed, I seem to be getting pinged by my PPPoE gateway every 10 seconds, and I can't seem to find out what the cause of this is. Have checked other net traffic to no avail, tried compiling the dialer with debugging options which did nothing, and any sort of insight that could be offered at this point is dearly welcome. -- David Michael Curry (Dave) [EMAIL PROTECTED] () ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org | Against proprietary extensions ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

1. Set up a dhcp server. In my case all servers are located at one
hardware server.
2. Set up a tftp server.

One can choose what to boot while PXE-booting (use a label from the

-
# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f floppy_dos_image -u 0
# mount -t msdosfs /dev/md0 /mnt

Then copy the needed files to /mnt. Don't forget to do:
-
# umount /mnt
# mdconfig -d -u 0

Call it a moment of sheer stupidity, call it a misremembering,
call it whatever you want (and I imagine I'll hear a few

Before I type anything to damage things further, does anyone
have any suggestions as to how to recover from this? I have
other FreeBSD boxes available to me, none with the same pkg
list, though. I'll be reading man pkgdb in the meantime..
This came up recently in another thread, and what seemed to be
the best solution to me, was this:
1. work out which leaf-ports you actually need - don't worry
about the dependencies.
2. at your leisure build new packages under a chroot
environment, or on another machine.
3. back-up /usr/local/etc (or the whole of /usr/local)
4. rm -rf /usr/local/*
5. Restore /usr/local/etc and install packages.
Why would you go through 3-5 when you can just
mv /chroot/build/directory/var/db/pkg /var/db/pkg ?
For the reasons that that you snipped off the bottom of my post.
... avoids leaving any orphaned files,and most
importantly makes sure that all of the installed package have an
entry in /var/db/pkg. If you miss any of these entries, it may
cause a lot of trouble down the line.
/chroot/build/directory/var/db/pkg is only a rough guess as to
what was actually installed under /usr/local/.
So don't guess if you're that paranoid.
If you haven't kept a list of origins, you may not have much choice
unless the dependencies are simple. Dealing with conflicts is
bad enough when you have a complete record of what's installed.
It can be much much harder to
restore some directories under /usr/local to a working state,
like /usr/local/pgsql, /usr/local/www and some perl ports like rrd.
Whether that is hard to do or not depends on the individual case,
a backed-up /usr/local can easily be restored, if it doesn't work-out.
Depending how long builds take, it may be faster let a script run
over /usr/ports/*/* that runs make generate-plist for each port,
appends grep -v '^@' ${TMPPLIST} into a file, thus building an index
of every file that a port can install, then let a script run
over /usr/local that queries that index for each file it encounters.
Like I said, for the ultra paranoid.
That assumes that everything was installed from the same ports tree,
you know which tree it was, and that every packing-list is accurate
-otherwise it may flag an essential file for deletion.
Maybe some forgotten
dependency doesn't get included in the new build. A year from now
you may find odd build problems, or new port installs may use
orphaned files with critical vulnerabilities that portaudit can't
detect.
Nope. Orphaned files create stale deps, which are easily found with
pkgdb -F, because the dependency check checks if ${LOCALBASE}/bin/foo
exists and if it does adds the dependency to /var/db/pkg.
Also, `make missing' for a given port easily lists all dependencies
that aren't in $PKG_DBDIR, so if you run make missing after a new
install for a while, you'll easily identify those.
It depends what state the ports were in at the time of the accident. If
you haven't run a leaf-cutting program recently you may have old
dependencies and tools that have become leaves - they may take years
to show-up.

How to set up a network-attached printer
Where would I find a specific method for setting up a Samsung ML-2571N network-attached PostScript printer in FreeBSD 6.1? I'm hoping for something less generic than what I've found in the handbook. It just works from MacOS X, as did the old LaserWriter IIf that the Samsung replaced, so I suppose one approach would be to use the Mac as a print server; but I would prefer to print from FreeBSD directly so that the Mac does not need to be up in order to print from the FreeBSD machine. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
