Well, it certainly seems that you're running on 2 cores so that blows that theory out of the water :) My next theory is that cpu0 is reporting too high a figure because it's got a busted or miscalibrated thermistor (or whatever they use). My machine reports cpu core temps of 22 24 respectively. That's hovering about room temperature with powerd enabled and a virtually idle machine. For the record, I've got a Core 2 Duo E6550 2.33GHZ. Another possibility, is that coretemp has a bug in it triggered by your particular CPU. I think the broken temp sensor is more likely though. I don't know if your BIOS records the core temps. If not, it will probably record the CPU temp in which case compare with your coretemp temperatures. That may or may not cast some light on things and whether you have to worry about the machine shutting down due to too high a CPU temperature being erroneously recorded.

Start by updating your ports tree again. You may have hit a transient issue with the dependencies in the actual makefiles. Probably not, but it's worth checking before trying to understand what's really happening. If I can let the machine alone for a while, I will generally rebuild all the ports in the dependency tree for the problem. Getting this accurate usually requires examining the ports by hand. Removing all of those ports and rebuilding them to pick up the dependency information in order will usually work, but takes the functionality offline for longer.

Historical question about INDEX-file in /usr/ports
Hello list, a small question for the expirienced users of FreeBSD: At which time the name of INDEX.db to INDEX-?.db changed?

FreeBSD 4.x and earlier had just plain /usr/ports/INDEX FreeBSD 5.x and above have /usr/ports/INDEX-N where N is the OS major version. The INDEX.db file is created and used by programs from the portupgrade(1) suite: other ports management applications pretty much make a point of not referring to the INDEX at all. There wasn't a change in the format of the INDEX coincident with the name change -- the distinction is because many of the ports are version number dependent so the content of the INDEX will be different on different system versions. There was a change in the format of the INDEX file some time before 4.11-RELEASE (I think) which added a number of extra columns, but the file format has been constant since then.

(I suppose during the creating time of FreeBSD 6) And then it was changed, was the database format also been changed? The INDEX.db / INDEX-?.db files are created by (I believe) portsupgrade and are not really part of the ports tree as such. I don't know if they have changed the database format, but I doubt it. The 'base' files are just plain textfiles named INDEX / INDEX-?. As far as I know their format hasn't changed in a long time either. The switch from plain INDEX to INDEX-5 (etc.) happened in 2002 in time for FreeBSD 5. The reason was that the dependencies for ports could vary quite a bit between 4.x and 5.x. (In particular perl was part of the base system in 4.x, but not in 5.x and later - meaning that all ports that had perl as a dependency (and there are many of them) would depend on the perl port when built on a 5.x system but not on a 4.x system.) The relevant commit message (for ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk) would be: revision 1.436 date: 2002/12/04 17:17:48; author: kris; state: Exp; lines: +8 -3 Add the INDEXFILE variable, that defaults to INDEX-5 on 5.0 (500036) and later, and INDEX on earlier systems. Use this in the 'make index' and associated targets. This is necessary to deal with the substantially different dependencies of ports between 4.x and 5.0 (e.g. ports that depend on perl). (Support for INDEX-6, INDEX-7, etc. was added later.) -- Insert your favourite quote here.

It simply cannot find the commands you see as not found. Try inserting something like: PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin at the top of your script. Alternatively, you could use full paths to the commands in the script, but it seems the errors come from the system scriprt, /etc/rc.d/named and you wouldn't want to touch that. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

to get cs working for now
This will work for now but needs a bit of tweaking to work correctly on FreeBSD. Copy /etc/termcap to ~/.termcap or /usr/local/etc/termcap so that you do not mess with the system termcap.Edit ~/.termcap or /usr/local/etc/termcap with any editor that you like. Find cons25 termcap information Add a slash on the last line so it looks like this at the end :\. Then add a line that looks like this :cs=%d;%dr: at the end of the cons25 section. Then you need to make it so TERMPATH has ~/.termcap or /usr/local/etc/termcap in the path I tend to do this setenv TERMPATH ~/.termcap:/usr/local/etc/termcap:/etc/termcap. Change setenv to whatever the shell your using uses for export. But this should get tmux and some other ports working for now they might be a bit messed up. If any of the other people on this mailing list can actually get cs working correctly since I know that my way works but does not work like you would expect please inform myself since this is the first time I actually dived into a termcap file. pgp81QVOLezqJ.pgp Description: PGP signature

Are you running AMD64? the modules are there on my i386 laptop but not my AMD64 server (I dont use iwi on either though.) I'm running i386, so that may be the difference.

amanda-client port configure options not passing.
I'm having issues with the amanda-client port. At some point in the past months, when I install a new amanda-client it appears that the configure options are not passing correctly. THe OS version doesn't seem to matter, 6.2, 7.0, 6.3 all appear to have the same issue. The specific behavior I'm encountering is that the amandad daemon on the client (yes it's backward) sees the incoming packets and logs them but does not respond. I'm wondering if it's an issue with the semi-recent autoconf upgrade. As near as I can tell, the CONFIGURE_ARGS from the port makefile are not making into the configure script for the actual work files. Ideas? From the amandad debug file: amandad:CONFIGURE_COMMAND='./configure' '--libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec/amanda' '--with-amand mp' '--disable-libtool' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--with-user=operator' '--with-group=operator' '--with-gn /local/bin/gtar' '--without-server' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--build=i386-portbld-freebsd6.2' vs. amandad:CONFIGURE_COMMAND='./configure' 'freebsd6.3' -Stephen ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
net4801, nanobsd, -current
Hi, I'm trying to build a new nanobsd on 8-current from June 5, and I believe I've messed up the kernel for my Soekris net4801.

Re: trouble shooting samba performance
worms wrote: Hello, Can anyone point me to a guide on trouble shooting samba performance or a quick list of common issues I can check for. I've been googling but haven't found much that referenced a recent version of FreeBSD and Samba. I am running FreeBSD 7.0 on VmWare Server 2.0 hosted on a CentOS Linux box. I've used nttcp and iozone to verify that the performance of the FreeBSD 7.0 VM is good and am able to copy 6.5GB on disk from one location to another in about 2.5 minutes.

Sendmail Google Apps Email - Not Working Together
Hey list, I have a FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE box at domain.tld. I decided I want to use Google Apps to handle my email accounts, so I set my MX records at domain.tld to point to google's servers. I don't want to accept any incoming mail on my FreeBSD box (It's firewalled off anyway), but I do want to be able to send outgoing mail. I have sendmail_enable=NO in my /etc/rc.conf. Now, the problem is that I cannot send OUTGOING mail from the server itself to the @domain.tld email accounts. It isn't a firewall issue because the server can send mail out to any other address just fine. Below is the output of /var/log/maillog. I'm trying to send an email from the irc account on the server, to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. I think maybe sendmail is getting confused because the hostname of the FreeBSD box is also domain.tld, the same host I'm trying to send outgoing mail to. Can anyone shed any light on the issue?

xl driver in FreeBSD6.3 fails to maintain connections
Hello, I have an x86 box with a 3com 905b ethernet card installed. I had frequent problems in connecting to it and in fact the card was not up when I checked. A reboot or 2 would bring the card up, but it would not stay up, ie ssh from another computer would disconnect. There did not appear to be any error messages and no configurations were changed for reboot. I suspect the card was being powered off. I have since given up on using FreeBSD on this box and installed Solaris10. As there do not appear to be any hardware issues with Solaris, I was curious if there is a known issue with either the xl driver or the network stack in 6.3 that may have been fixed in 7.0 . ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well, I have had sendmail enabled, but my outgoing mail gets bounced with a message saying that Comcast has blocked the process. Yes. On most residential connections, Comcast blocks port 25 to reduce the spam burden created by compromised hosts. Your options are not to send mail on port 25 (using port 587, for instance, but that makes you unable to communicate with many servers) or to buy business class service from Comcast, if they'll let you. You can try calling support and asking to have 25 unblocked, but I have yet to hear of a case where that was effective. There is another option, which makes sense too: Send all outgoing email to Comcast's mail relay, using `SMART_HOST'. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I didn't do enough digging to get around this before reading this e-mail. do you have access rights to write to that device? is the device mounted ? (it shouldn't) No. I unmounted before trying.

RE: Wipe a drive clean
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Wojciech Puchar Sent: Monday, June 23, 2008 1:40 PM To: Steve Bertrand Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Andrew Falanga Subject: Re: Wipe a drive clean I'm having no luck finding hits for wipe drive or zero drive in the mail list archives and I can't believe I'm the first to ask this question but here it is anyway. How can I simply write 0's across a USB thumb drive? I'd rather not install a port, if I can avoid it. I was thinking that something like dd would work, but everything I've tried thus far is not working. What suggestions does everyone have? Will... dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/disk dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/disk bs=1m bs may be smaller but not the default 512 bytes. it's a block size. having very small block will make the process slow dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/disk bs=1024 The above will wipe the drive clean per the United States Department of Defence Standard 5220.22-M To sanitize it per the 5220.22-M stnadard, do the above 3 times. This is intended to destabilise the remnants of data that may exist on the edges of the track of the disk to which the data is written The random device is a lot slower than /dev/zero so the bs isn't as important.

SSHD Config questions
Hi fellows, I am trying to configure sshd on my bsd and wanted to ask if the opitons there, in case i enable them are resource intensive; Let me give u an example, For instance, the Options #ClientAliveInterval 0 #ClientAliveCountMax 3 In case i enable them, would my server, which is very small(Very little RAM,192MB i think)..its just for educational purposes; could my server cope with it if for instance tehre were quite a few clients connected? I dont know how to put this question...sorry.. What would be better. To enable them or keep them disabled. Cause there might be lots of users and what if a few connections keep there alive wasting resources while not being used, instead if the options enabled, they would be disconnected, but would this options interfere in sshd performance? I put those options only as an example; if you know of others that i should enable please dont hesitate to share it ;) Hope you guys get the concept... Thanks a lot as always and have a nice one...

I dont think you will see any difference with 192MB RAM. What is it that you are trying to accomplish? It is good to set ClientAliveInterval if your clients are behind NAT routers, to keep the NAT sessions from timing out.
