java plugin in Firefox
Hi everybody, Following the instructions from the Handbook, I tried to set up the Java plug-in in Firefox. After the JRE has been successfully installed, the plug-in didn't appear in the browser. While trying to add the link per instructions, I found that there's no such a file libjavaplugin_oji.so; the path /usr/local/diablo-jre1.5.0/plugin/amd64/ns7 doesn't exist either. There's a /usr/local/diablo-jre1.5.0 with bin, lib and man directories and lots of files in there, but there's no plugin directory. The installation of the plug-in doesn't look to be managed through the port settings. I had the same file set installed via both port and package - no plug-in file mentioned in the instructions. The page http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml indicates that amd64 platform is supported. I tried simple Java programs started from the console, and it worked fine. So, my problem is why the plug-in doesn't appear to be installed along the JRE installation? Am I missing something or the plug-in isn't supported in amd64? Can anyone help me to fix this issue? It looks just strange, because everything found on Google was about proper linking to the plug-in file, but the file itself was always installed. $ uname -a FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #0: Thu Sep 20 23:24:38 PDT 2007 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/AMD64 amd64 $ pkg_info | grep diablo diablo-jre-1.5.0.07.01_7 Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0_07.01 $ pkg_info | grep java javavmwrapper-2.3 Wrapper script for various Java Virtual Machines JRE build log can be found below.

OT: Verilog
Hello, sorry for the ott-topic, but I suspect that there are a lot of IT people between us, maybe some with hardware designing experiences as well... At the uni, I have a task to implement an easy game for Xilinx Spartan III in Verilog. In case somebody would be so kind to help me, please poke me in private mail. It's an emergency, I have to complete it for tomorrow and at the same time, I have to get prepared to 3 tests, as well. I don't know how I will be able to survive this... :) Thanks in advance.

Listening ports - vpn, proxy + p2p.
Hi, I'm running a large scale OpenVPN + proxy services on 6.2, mostly users are those using P2P clients such as emule and bittorrent protocols. Connections are made as follows: Users Openvpn(rl0) Socks5 (tun0) Internet (rl0) Most of them have no problem in downloading or uploading but none of them are able to get high ID for emule and connectable status in the bittorrent trackers. All servers are configured with Firewall_enable=NO and when I run netstat it will shows so many ports are connected BUT nmap says none of the ports are open. How do I get FreeBSD open and listen to those connections so that P2P clients can broadcast and listen using the proxy? With firewall off, all ports should be open but still p2p clients keep saying ports firewalled.

Re: Following directions doesn't seem to work: Adding users in NIS
David Benfell [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Where are there working directions for adding users under NIS? The instructions in the FreeBSD handbook don't seem to result in added users being propagated out to slaves. And the failure is silent, so I have no idea what I'm really supposed to be doing to make this work. All I know is that added users end up in the main /etc/passwd and /etc/master.passwd; the -Y option to pw seems to change nothing other than to consume time updating (but I don't know what, since the changes I'm looking for don't appear) various maps and pushing the maps. And, having evidently done the *wrong* thing, how do I fix the added users so they now appear in NIS? adduser(8) doesn't know anything about NIS. I don't know any automated way of adding users to a NIS map, but my home network is small enough that I don't bother. What you want to do is move the users' entries from master.passwd into your NIS master file, and rebuild the maps. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

With the cdcontrol you will determine if your hardware is able to play audio CDs. On (some?) PCs you have to connect the CD-ROM drive to your sound card, I cannot count the number of times I forgetted to reconnect this cable after an in-chassis intervention. If you can play CDs with cdcontrol, it is likely that your preffered CD-player cannot figure where to find the CD-rom device. It is fairly common that CD-player applications expect to find a symbolic link /dev/cdrom pointing to the actual CD-ROM controlling device. If there is no such link on your system, it can easily be added. However, it is not sufficient to # cd /dev; ln -s acd0 cdrom because /dev is not a persistant filesystem (it is reinitialised across reboots, because it is a *virtual* filesystem). To add the symbolic link, you should edit the /etc/devfs.conf file (look at the line with the word `cdrom' in it) and let the system notice your changes: # vi /etc/devfs.conf # /etc/rc.d/devfs restart (If you are not comfortable with vi, try the easy editor `ee' instead: # ee /etc/devfs.conf ) You might prefer trying to tell your preferred CD-player where it can find the CD-ROM device, this can often be done with an `Edit Preferences' dialog. -- Hope this helps, Michaël ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you deinstall the extensions and remove the config files from the old installation, and let the new installation do all its work of new config files and new extensions, I wouldn't expect any httpd core dumps, though. It's happened to me many times, but it was always due to leftovers from a minor version increase via portupgrade, or the fact that I had switched Apache from no-SSL to an SSL type, and the extensions were compiled against the libraries for the former. The other gotcha in relation to FBSD is the location of the extension dir, and doubling of entries in extensions.ini, but I'm thinking a new installation would fix that problem.

On the Linux side, the users are visible (e.g. you can run id username and the user is there) but they cannot login.

Re: Dual Boot Vista - Large Sector Issue
The issue is not setting up a dual boot system. The issue is FDISK displaying an error relating to the new rules MS is using when setting up a partition under Vista. Based on the research covered here ( http://www.multibooters.co.uk/partitions.html) if you use the Vista installer to create the partition it will be created using the new rules. Vista is placing partitions on the hard drive using different starting and ending positions from the recognized conventions. So if I use the Drive Manager in Vista to make free space to install FreeBSD, I am unable to install because FDISK give me an error about the Vista partition not starting on a sector boundary. Rachie, I am curious if Partition Magic changed the partition back to the standard conventions, or if your copy of Vista and factory installed and the drive was setup under the standard conventions. I am still left wondering if/when fdisk will support this new partition layout?

Re: ntfs-3g problem
I copied 7 files totaling 280GB. I then rebooted the freebsd box (without unmounting the ntfs partition) and then when I tried to mount the partition mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/da0s1 /mnt/windows), all files where missing. I could not even see them on the windows server.

NIS interoperability with Linux, was Re: Following directions doesn't seem to work: Adding users in NIS
On Mon, 15 Oct 2007 22:29:35 +0300, Manolis Kiagias wrote: Well I can tell you with certainty, it is not compatible out of the box, and I have not managed to make it work (though I must admit I did not put a lot of effort into this). Seems the exported master.passwd map needs a filename change + internal changes, thus the NIS Makefile needs to be modified. On the Linux side, the users are visible (e.g. you can run id username and the user is there) but they cannot login. If you Google FreeBSD NIS Server Linux Clients you will get some patches for the NIS Makefile to make it Linux compatible. I was not however successful with this. If you do try it and get it to work, please report back. Linux doesn't normally use master.passwd. If I recall correctly, it uses /etc/shadow instead (but I don't have such a box at hand right now to check). And yes, the internal format is different (and, again, I don't remember details). This conversion, however, sounds like an ugly hack. I'm thinking a *correct* (tm) solution would be a pluggable authentication module (pam) that could interpret the master.passwd file properly. This would also depend on Linux supporting the cryptography method used to encrypt the passwords (perhaps it does, but I'm not sure). What I wasn't realizing was that NIS operated by simply propagating versions of master.passwd (and maybe passwd); while this will certainly be interoperable between FreeBSD (and I think OpenBSD) systems, it is clearly a problem with Linux and probably other UNIX-like OS's. -- David Benfell, LCP [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Resume available at http://www.parts-unknown.org/ NOTE: I sign all messages with GnuPG (0DD1D1E3). pgpA6BTi4TWOA.pgp Description: PGP signature

Inner workings of turnstiles and sleepqueues
Hello, For some reason, I want to understand how the queueing of blocked threads in the kernel works when waiting for a lock, which is if I understand correctly done by the turnstiles and sleepqueues. I'm the proud owner of The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System book, but for some reason, I can't find anything about it in the book. Is there a way to obtain information about how they work? I already read the source somewhat, but that shouldn't be an ideal solution, in my opinion.

installation question
There are two installation CD's for FreeBSD 6.2. After booting the first one, and requesting ALL packages and ALL ports, the installation seems to go ok until the end when it complains that it cannot find the requested package on the media from which installation is being made. At no point does it ask for the 2nd CD. In fact, it has the CD drive locked shut so I cannot put it in. After accepting non-installation of several packages, it finished and the resulting installation does boot to the login prompt. Questions: Do I have a complete installation? How do I install whatever is on the 2nd CD?

Re: NIS interoperability with Linux, was Re: Following directions doesn't seem to work: Adding users in NIS
Linux doesn't normally use master.passwd. If I recall correctly, it uses /etc/shadow instead (but I don't have such a box at hand right now to check). And yes, the internal format is different (and, again, I don't remember details). If I am not wrong, NIS does not know anything about master.passwd or shadow, it has only passwd.byname passwd.byuid as password maps, both maps including password in them.

It depends on how much you can compromise about the quality and
typesetting beauty of the output.
A naive approach would be something like:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{verbatim}
insert your text file here
\end{verbatim}
\end{document}
But this may not result in a typeset document that is as aesthetically
pleasing and beautiful as one which has been formatted by carefully
picking the typesetting commands you can use.
As an example, try typesetting the two documents which are listed below,
and see which one you prefer:

% document1.tex
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{verbatim}
Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy
in its own way.
Everything was in confusion in the Oblonskys' house. The
wife had discovered that the husband was carrying on an
intrigue with a French girl, who had been a governess in
their family, and she had announced to her husband that she
could not go on living in the same house with him. This
position of affairs had now lasted three days, and not only
the husband and wife themselves, but all the members of their
family and household, were painfully conscious of it. Every
person in the house felt that there was no sense in their
living together, and that the stray people brought together
by chance in any inn had more in common with one another than
they, the members of the family and household of the
Oblonskys. The wife did not leave her own room, the husband
had not been at home for three days. The children ran wild
all over the house; the English governess quarreled with the
housekeeper, and wrote to a friend asking her to look out for
a new situation for her; the man-cook had walked off the day
before just at dinner time; the kitchen-maid, and the
coachman had given warning.

are you doing nat? or actually providing REAL , routable IPs for your users?
if you are doing NAT, the only thing you may be able to do is to port forward
specific ports to each client. That may not work for all clients - emule may be
different to, say, limewire.

If the goal is to study Python (assuming no previous experience), go along with the easiest for you. For starters, if you are using a GUI, go with Python's own IDLE environment. It is not advanced, but neither are you at this point. And it does have some advantages (like immediate execution of commands to try out things). Spending time learning a complex editor like vi or emacs, will certainly pay up in the long run though. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
