disaster recovery: I can't login
Hi folks, Yesterday disaster struck after I wanted to remove Gnome and issued the following command: pkg_deinstall -R x11/gnome* -x evolution I went to sleep and when I woke up I rebooted and got the login screen iso my normal graphical GDM. I logged in as I normally do and thought I was logged in because I saw a line saying I had mail, but then the line below that one said: /usr/local/bin/bash was not found. As root I coudn't login as well, so I sat a while looking at my screen and looking for options. I grapped a netbsd 4.0 live cd and booted but now I need some help how to proceed. I wanted to use netbsd to mount my ffs harddrive and change the /etc/passwd file to /bin/sh Then I would be able to see the damage. However, I don't know how the mount_ffs on Netbsd because that OS is obviously using a different /dev naming scheme because I excpected it to be something like /dev/ad*. Does anyone happen to know the right command? Or should I head on to the Netbsd mailinglist? And if someone knows what created this mess, let me know as well. And if you happen to know other options, don hesitate to react as well. I also have some suse and ubuntu live-cd's but didn't use them because I don't know how well they support ffs.

FreeBSD network problem.
I have such a strange problem I cant even guess whats worng. Im running FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE amd64 and zfs. When the machine starts everything works fine but after a while (the only thing I noticed, when the free memory drops below 1700MB) it starts to behave VERY strange when serving web-pages (running apache22). It has no problem serving html-pages but css and images doesnt work. The http-log reports 200 OK and tcpdump shows the whole css-code sent out on the interface. But the browser/telnet just sits there waiting for data. Sometimes we even get HTTP-requests inside the css-file from another machine to another server. (see picture) http://jf.jail.se/tmp/css.png When I reboot the machine everything works fine again but after a while this appears again. using lynx is no problem at all. or telnet and GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: blabla this gives the correct data, but GET /style.css HTTP/1.1 gives nothing, just waiting for data. Other protocols like ftp, ssh, smtp, imap seems to work fine. And sometimes it seems like it works fine UNTIL you do shift+reload until that the sites works fine. of course I figured that this must be a problem between the server and myself but since a reboot fixes the problem for a certain amout of time that could (maybe) not be the case. I really need some ideas on this.. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

HOWTO local FTP mirror for FreeBSD installation
Hi, For local installations of FreeBSD via FTP, I tried to setup a local FTP mirror using the preferred method as described in section 3.1.3 of the following :- http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/hubs/mirror-howto.html However, I found that the ftp-master.freebsd.org refused to accept cvsup connection. Moreover, I found that CD-ROM contents were different from what was found on the FTP website and could not simply copy the CD-ROM content to a local FTP server. I hope someone could help to advise an efficient method to setup a local FTP server for easier installation, rather than changing CD-ROMs many many times for one installation.

From adduser(8): Perhaps you are missing what can be done with this scheme that falls apart with most other schemes. With each user in their own group, they can safely run with a umask of 002 instead of the usual 022 and create files in their home directory without worrying about others being able to change them. For a shared area you create a separate UID/GID (like cvs or ncvs on freefall), you place each person that should be able to access this area into that new group.

gmirror, geli, gjournal performance
Hi everyone, I was replacing a disk in a gmirror+geli pair and decided to compare the performance of gmirror+geli+gjournal before adding the new disk. When using these three together is the appropriate order to 1) fdisk and label 2) mirror the disk, 3) geli the partitions, and 4) use the geli partitions for gjournal label? With respect to performance, I find the writes to the gjournal disk about half as fast, which I expected from the benchmarks I've seen. However, reading a single file is identical between the two: dd if=/sofupdates/1.mpg of=/dev/null bs=1m 994049168 bytes transferred in 34.858793 secs (28516454 bytes/sec) dd if=/gjournal/1.mpg of=/dev/null bs=1m 994049168 bytes transferred in 34.335267 secs (28951258 bytes/sec) Is this expected?

So...other then journaling filesystems are cool, what's the real advantage? gjournal is a kind of hack and it's only usable for avoiding fscks. It's actually slower than softupdates for high-demand disk loads. Real journalling file systems would have the following benefits, as replies to the points from your post: 1) Soft-updates were created in a different time, with different requirements than modern hard drives (especially desktop hard drives) can deliver. Especially, SU requires that data it once sends to the drive gets written immediately, not cached by the drive. Modern desktop drives don't do that so journaling is today actually safer than SU (because it requires smaller, compact data to be written to the journal, instead of scattered bits of data across the disk drive like SU does). There are reasons why there's only one single soft-updates file system in existence today while there are dozens of journaled file systems. Soft-updates is infinitely better than nothing, but at the very least it needs to be seriously updated to be useful for professional purposes today. 2) Background fsck is considered unsafe by many high-end users of FreeBSD, especially with large drives (many terabytes). One of the reasons for that is because it relies on file system snapshots which have in the past behaved quirky. Another reason to avoid background fsck-s is that some applications require all their disk IO bandwith immediately on boot, and background fsck may steal the bandwidth while it's running. On the other hand, for desktop-sized drives and low-demanding purposes, background fsck works ok. 3) Real journalling file systems have journals sized in the order of dozens of megabytes (e.g. 10 MB - 50 MB) because they don't need to journal every single IO operation like gjournal does. You'll agree that those sizes are trivial for todays drives.

Once the subject has been raised, it would be nice to get an up-to-date view from someone in the know - as opposed to having to leaf through hundreds of old threads on the topic.

Re: is this hardware supported?

With what success? Can anybody use the embedded RAID controller to make a HW RAID 1 with two SATA disks? According to ata(4), the ICH8 chipset is supported. According to ataraid(4) the jmicron is supported. But if it doesn't work, you can always use gmirror(8). Is the NIC supported and working well? Hard to say. The spec page you provided doesn't list the type of Realtek chip used. Again, if it doesn't work get a cheap Realtek 8139 card. Again, I couldn't find any of its chipsets in the 6.3 supported HW list, so that's why I ask the list. It is better to check the manual pages of drivers. But in this case I'm a bit muc more confident that FreeBSD 6.3 can run on this HW I recently booted FreeBSD on a system with a intel motherboard with a ICH9 chipset. Everything seemed to work OK.

Re: wine: notepad OK, others not
I have installed wine-0.9.20 from ports, and there's a Win98 FAT32 slice mounted on /windoze deletia How do I fix this? I would start by upgrading and re-installing wine. You have 0.9.20; the current version is 0.9.55 and I believe there have been substantial improvements. When I updated my ports, the newer wine refused to install on 6.1, saying it wouldn't work properly on anything prior to 6.3 IIRC. Rather than risk breaking my primary system in an upgrade attempt, I installed 7.0-RELEASE and wine-0.9.48 (the version from the 7.0-RELEASE ports) on a different machine. It happened to have XP, so I'm now trying to run XP .exe's instead of win98 .exe's. Notepad and Write are, if anything, worse than before: now, if I just start typing without selecting a font, I get something that looks more or less like dingbats. They do seem to work if I explicitly select Courier. (The ultimate goal is to run Visio, not to do word processing, but I'm trying to start with something simple.) The problem with wordpad has not changed very much: $ wine /winxp/Program Files/Windows NT/Accessories/wordpad.exe err:module:import_dll Library MFC42u.DLL (which is needed by LZ:\\winxp\\Program Files\\Windows NT\\Accessories\\wordpad.exe) not found err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for LZ:\\winxp\\Program Files\\Windows NT\\Accessories\\wordpad.exe failed, status c135 (Previously it was looking for MFC42.DLL instead of MFC42u.DLL.) OK, it doesn't know where to find the DLLs. Try making a symlink to a place which (per the manpage) is always searched: $ ls -l /winxp/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/mfc42u.dll -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 995384 Aug 23 2001 /winxp/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/mfc42u.dll $ ln -s /winxp/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/mfc42u.dll /usr/local/lib/wine $ wine /winxp/Program Files/Windows NT/Accessories/wordpad.exe err:module:import_dll Library MFC42u.DLL (which is needed by LZ:\\winxp\\Program Files\\Windows NT\\Accessories\\wordpad.exe) not found err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for LZ:\\winxp\\Program Files\\Windows NT\\Accessories\\wordpad.exe failed, status c135 Maybe the search is case-sensitive (although Windows ordinarily isn't)? $ ln -s /winxp/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/mfc42u.dll /usr/local/lib/wine/MFC42u.DLL $ wine /winxp/Program Files/Windows NT/Accessories/wordpad.exe err:module:import_dll Library MFC42u.DLL (which is needed by LZ:\\winxp\\Program Files\\Windows NT\\Accessories\\wordpad.exe) not found err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for LZ:\\winxp\\Program Files\\Windows NT\\Accessories\\wordpad.exe failed, status c135 The symlinks in /usr/local/lib/wine *do* point to that DLL, and they *can* be followed successfully: $ ( cd /usr/local/lib/wine ; ls -lL mfc* MFC* ) -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 995384 Aug 23 2001 MFC42u.DLL -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 995384 Aug 23 2001 mfc42u.dll Now what?

The proposed solution was to use ipmitool to read the temperature from the IPMI controller. This gives me a lot of readings, including ambient temperature, but it does not give me the temperature of the CPUs. It says disabled for the top four readings, which should be the CPU readings. After doing some research online, I found a possible alternate solution of using coretemp. There was a thread that said that the Xeon dual-core CPUs supported that. After checking the output of cpuid, I have confirmed that these CPUs definitely do not support coretemp.

mount_smbfs
Is it possible to mount drives on an Active Directory 2003 domain? I've been doing some testing, and I had no problem mounting the netlogon share, but I get an authentication error when I try to mount other drives. (I've altered the hostnames in the examples below.) # mount_smbfs -I domain-controller.utdallas.edu //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/netlogon /mnt/hdrive/ Password: An ls of the mount directory shows the files one would expect to find in our netlogon share. # mount_smbfs -I file-server.utdallas.edu //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/users$/pauls /mnt/hdrive/ Password: mount_smbfs: unable to open connection: syserr = Authentication error I know that the netlogon share doesn't require a logon, but I wonder if the problem isn't that the other mounts require encryption? Is anyone successfully mounting AD 2003 shares on FreeBSD?
