 You have two options to resolve this issue:
   Copy the fonts folder over from a WinXP/Vista install to the relevant
 wine bottle.or
   Install the winetricks tool and let it install all the Windows fonts for
 you.

 Hope this helps.


 Unfortunately neither works; I copied the fonts directory in a Windows XP
 installation to .wine/drive_c/windows/ to no avail, removed it and used
 winetricks to install allfonts (corefonts, tahoma, liberation) with similar
 results.
 Further suggestions?

Using RocketRAID 1810A (hptmv) as an ordinary controller?

2008-07-14 Thread Pete
I'd like to use my HighPoint RocketRAID 1810A as an ordinary SATA
controller without any RAID functionality. This works fine out of the
box for all sectors of the disk except the last ten, which are hidden.

The controller is identified as:
hptmv0: RocketRAID 182x SATA Controller mem 0xfbf0-0xfbf7 irq 18 at 
device 2.0 on pci1
RocketRAID 182x SATA Controller driver Version v1.12 (Sep 17 2007 18:32:12)

I believe the 1810A is identical to the 1820A, except that it has four
channels less. There's a new driver out (v1.16, CVS has v1.12) but I
don't think the changes are relevant to the issue at hand.

The setup I'm using is GELI inside a GEOM label, that is:
  glabel label mylabel /dev/da1
  geli init ... /dev/label/mylabel

Due to the fact that the hptmv driver hides the last ten sectors I
can't move disks between the 1810A and an ordinary controller: a disk
configured on an ordinary controller will have its metadata (and more)
hidden, and a disk configured on the 1810A will have its last two
sectors (one for the label, one for GELI) ten sectors away from the
end of the disk.

Questions:

1. Looking at the src/sys/dev/hptmv/array.h there's a
SAVE_FOR_RAID_INFO which is set to 0 if ARRAY_V2_ONLY is defined,
otherwise it's set to 10. The only other references to ARRAY_V2_ONLY
are in gui_lib.c, where the capacity is once again reduced by 10
sectors if the option is in place. There is a SUPPORT_ARRAY option,
but it doesn't seem to affect SAVE_FOR_RAID_INFO.

Compiling with '#undef SUPPORT_ARRAY' seems to be terribly broken and
I don't know how to fix it. Some of the errors can be fixed with a
little '#ifdef SUPPORT_ARAY':ing, others are less obvious to me.

I also tried compiling with ARRAY_V2_ONLY=1 and also with
SAVE_FOR_RAID_INFO=0 forced, but neither seems to work, the capacity
is still ten sectors short.

Anyone have ANY ideas on how to get access to the last sectors when
the disk is connected to the 1810A, or is it prevented by the
hardware? It's OK if it sacrifices RAID functionality for all
channels.

2. If a disk has been formatted while connected to the 1810A, how
would one use it in a different controller, one which does not hide
the last ten sectors? The disk has no bsdlabel. I suppose I could
chain ten glabels, but that's just silly.

3. Should it be impossible to access the last sectors using 1810A, do
you have any recommendations of an ordinary SATA controller, or a RAID
one which optionally does not hide any sectors, and works fine with
1TB disks on FreeBSD (ideally on 6.x)?

All ideas and comments are appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

You can.  There is a C column in the output of top, indicating which 
process runs in which CPU.

Your dmesg already shows all your CPUs are activated.


and also another question is

2-FreeBSD 7.0 has got default multiprocessor generic kernel??? since during
installations only one generic kernel shown



  


In 6.X versions, there were two different GENERIC kernels, one for SMP, 
the other for single CPU. Starting with 7.0, there is only one GENERIC 
kernel that supports both SMP and single processor systems. AFAIK, in 
7.0 using an SMP-enabled kernel in a single CPU system does not 
introduce any real performance penalty, so no need to recompile just for 
this.

Nagios - check_by_ssh problem

Hello,

I'm not subscribed to this list, so please include my address explicitly in

Command being run as root:

su -m nagios -c /usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_by_ssh -t 60 -l nagios -H

}


/var/spool/nagios is owned by nagios user, see:

-rw-r--r--  1 nagios  nagios  617 Jul 14 13:32 known_hosts


boxlive.ssh-key was generated by me, and it works.

When running this command, as above, it works perfectly, yet when running from 
nagios, as a service check, I get: 

Remote command execution failed: Host key verification failed.

So, on the remote host:

[boxlive@/usr/nagios/.ssh]# pwd
/usr/nagios/.ssh
[boxlive@/usr/nagios/.ssh]# ls -la

-rw---   1 nagios   other887 May 28 11:10 id_rsa


What am I doing wrong ?

How do I get this to work correctly ?

Nagios was installed from /usr/ports/net-mgmt/nagios-devel, which is 
nagios-3.0.3.

Thank you for your time,

 sourcecode. FreeBSD 6.3 stable is running on it. dmesg is in below.

Can you provide some more detail here? How is it slower? Serving less
clients? The load (from your top snapshot) is nearly 0 and there isn't
much of a memory load on the box either.

 1-I wonder in my TOP output can I see all CPU or not?

Run top with the -S option, and you will see the idle process for
each core/CPU. The CPU: line there is an aggregate of all processors
in the system.

If you're in doubt:

sysctl hw.ncpu

Or run:

mptable

 2-FreeBSD 7.0 has got default multiprocessor generic kernel??? since during

Yes, 7.0 includes SMP by default in GENERIC.

 FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 4 CPUs
  cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID:  0
  cpu1 (AP): APIC ID:  1
  cpu2 (AP): APIC ID:  2
  cpu3 (AP): APIC ID:  3

There you go, it's seeing all 4 cores.

The system is seeing all of them, so your real question is likely -
why is this not performing as well as my old box? We need more details
to answer that.

I'm sorry, I completely missed that you were running 6.3 and not a 7.x
release. You are running the GENERIC kernel then, and while the
processors are visible, it's only using one since you are not running
with SMP support.

You can build the SMP kernel (basically, GENERIC + options needed for
SMP) by doing the following:

cd /usr/src
make kernel KERNCONF=SMP

Then reboot, and it should pick up the newly installed kernel with SMP
support. Note that this backs up your old kernel to /boot/kernel.old,
so if the new one fails to boot, at the beastie menu, you can boot
with the old kernel if necessary.

Is SMP in GENERIC now in 6.3-STABLE then?

I don't know, mptable looks fine, as does dmesg, but hw.ncpu is 1 - very odd.

Re: Would ZFS and gmirror work well together in a two-node failover cluster?

2008-07-14 Thread David Robillard
 I am looking to put together a two-node high-availability cluster
 where each node has identical data storage consisting of a set of
 internal data drives (separate from the boot drive). I want ZFS to
 manage the drives as a JDBOD in a RAIDZ2 configuration. Thus, if an
 individual drive misbehaves or fails, ZFS detects and handles the
 fault.

 But I'm also looking to mirror this entire setup in real time to a
 second identical server.

 Basically, my question is can this work well on FreeBSD while taking
 full advantage of ZFS?

 Specifically, my understanding is that the only way to handle the
 real time mirror is with gmirror and ggated, but it's not clear how
 gmirror would interact with ZFS.

 I am assuming that gmirror operates only on individual drives, so if
 I had a set of 24 drives on each server, there would be 24 mirrored
 drive pairs.

 One concern I have is that this setup could run into trouble with
 gmirror's potentially sabotaging ZFS's RAIDZ2. For example, when a
 drive starts failing, won't gmirror see it before ZFS does and take
 the unfavorable action of substituting the corresponding drive in the
 failover server in subsequent I/O, leaving ZFS's RAIDZ2 out of the
 loop?

 This is just one particular scenario, but in general, it's not
 entirely clear that it's possible to have fine-grained control of
 when, how much and in what direction gmirror manages synchronization
 among drive pairs.

Hello Maurice,

Which type of connection do you intend to use for the shared storage
JBOD? SAN or direct attached SCSI? Don't forget to change the SCSI
initiator ID on one of the nodes if you go the direct attached SCSI
road. I had this setup running back in 1999 with two Solaris boxes
using Solstice Disk Suite with shared disks. Both nodes knew about the
existance of the other and hence it worked quite well. But I don't
know if it can work with two FreeBSD nodes?

Now for the filesystem choice, keep in mind that ZFS is not a native
cluster, distributed, or parallel file system and cannot provide
concurrent access from multiple hosts as ZFS is a local file system.
Which means your two node cluster won't be active/active. You'll have
an active node and a failover node. That may be alright or it may not.
Depends on your application, how deep your pockets are and your the
level of risk your organization is willing to live with.

You might want to take a look at clustered file systems for your
setup. Check out Lustre (http://wiki.lustre.org/) or OpenGFS
(http://opengfs.sourceforge.net/) for instance. If your cluster
requires mostly reads and not much write, check out OpenAFS
(http://www.openafs.org/) which is a distributed filesystem. You could
always use NFS too, but then it depends on where you want to deploy
the cluster, as NFS is rather hard to secure.

Now if we come back to the problem at hand, mainly using zfs under
gmirror. I've never heard of anyone using this. It does sound a bit
strange to me since both zfs and gmirror will do mirroring. I would
advise to test and retest very carefully before you go into production
with such a setup. If you do try it, I'd be interested in reading what
you've tried and what conclusions you came to.

Good luck! HTH,

David

 Hi all
 
 I have new server(webserver) quad core but performans is not well (according
 our old webserver pent IV ). Maybe its performans depends on our web page
 sourcecode. FreeBSD 6.3 stable is running on it. dmesg is in below.

There are a bazillion factors that can influence performance on web
servers. If you use PHP, do you use APC or similar pre-compiler? Do you
use memcached? If you use a database (most likely MySQL or PostgreSQL)
is the database optimized in the same way? In case of PostgreSQL, do you
VACUUM the database regularly?

You need to give more information about performance before and
after. The CPU you are using is very fast and FreeBSD can use it very
well, especially FreeBSD 7.x.

It looks like you posted several different dmesg boot message buffers;
The first looks like a recent 6_STABLE or 7.0-RELEASE and uses all 4
CPUs. The others are 6.3 with a single-processor kernel.

You also seem to have a problem with apache (signal 4). If you're using
mod_php, you might have a problem there, most likely with the ordering
of extensions in extensions.ini - search for it, it's a common problem.

6.X has a GENERIC and an SMP prebuilt kernel on CD, and I believe 
sysinstall selects the correct one to install as default. Having said 
that, I always compile my own kernel very soon after the basic install 
and I can't remember more specifics. But dmesg would not lie. Another 
good indication is to see if there is a C column in top. Then you are 
definitely running SMP.


PS: Ivan just posted, noticing there are several dmesg outputs in the OP 
post. We' ve been looking at different configurations :)

You do not have to restart the system, this is not a kernel update (and 
FreeBSD is not windows ;) ). It is sufficient to restart bind (if you 
are actually using it):


/etc/rc.d/named restart

will do it.

As for getting the update, just do:

freebsd-update fetch install

options WITNESS and locks

2008-07-14 Thread Yony Yossef
Hi all.

I'm trying to debug a spinlock held too long error.
Therefore I thought compiling my kernel with options WITNESS would be a
good idea.

Using the WITNESS kernel I cannot load my driver with any MTX_SPIN mutex.
I had to change it all to MTX_DEF since every MTX_SPIN got me this error:

panic: lock (network driver) spin mutex does not match earlier (sleep mutex)
lock
So I changed it all to MTX_DEF, just to see if things will work.
Now I can load my driver, but calling ifconfig shows a new crash:

Right, there would be a primary server,which contains the mounted

heartbeat would then mount these drives and take over as the new

gmirror would be doing mirroring, but ZFS would be doing RAIDZ2. So 
altogether it's RAIDZ2 + RAID 1. Under Linux, such an arrangement is 
fairly easy to do with an ordinary filesystem and the local RAID

with md. DRBD would do the mirroring.

 Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules

Right now i have only one partition and the same problem occurs. Other

So I think that's not the only difference.
I can live with a module loaded at the end of the boot process/after

properly I need to supersede search domain and dns'es in 
/etc/resolv.conf either by hand or by editing dhclient.conf. If I 
use dhclient.conf the VPN stuff is added way too soon, as I don't want 
to run mpd5 all the time, and consequently do it by hand. A couple of 
things slow down noticeably when being unable to reach the search domain.
I can't imagine I'll have to edit resolv.conf by hand every time 
- also it's being overwritten once in a while anyway - probably by the 
dhcp daemon. What's a good man to do here??


   thanks - Nikolaj Thygesen

people,

for reasons i don't understand completely, i wind up with
*wav* files in my /tmp/kde-kline/* directory. plus othr misc junk
files.

why is this script not finding them?


wav=/tmp/kde-kline/\*wav\*

then
echo Wav files found;
ls -l $wav;

/bin/rm ${wav};
else
echo No wav files in /tmp/kde-kline;

do i have to cd to /tmp/kde-kline and examine every file in a

  There's one major difference. File systems aren't mounted at loader

  partition, will fail.

 Right now i have only one partition and the same problem occurs. Other
 modules e.g. for sound or the nvidia module work as a charm.
 So I think that's not the only difference.
 I can live with a module loaded at the end of the boot process/after
 login but I don't think that's the real solution.

Hmm, I can only guess here. Is the machine booting to xorg? As in, is the 
nvidia card actually initialized, not just in VGA mode? If so, does it work 
when it stays in console mode and/or when nvidia.ko is removed from the 
loaded modules?

The other advantage of the simple version above is that it handles

freebsd-update says -p3, but i've got -p2

2008-07-14 Thread Mark Boolootian

Hi folks,

I've done a couple of fresh installs on 7.0-RELEASE today, and
subsequently run freebsd-update.  freebsd-update reports:

  The following files will be updated as part of updating to 7.0-RELEASE-p3:
  /boot/kernel/kernel
  /boot/kernel/kernel.symbols
  /usr/bin/dig
  /usr/bin/host
  /usr/bin/nslookup
  /usr/bin/nsupdate
  /usr/include/netinet/tcp.h

  /usr/sbin/sshd
  /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh
  /usr/src/sys/netinet/tcp.h
  /usr/src/sys/netinet/tcp_output.c

which leads me to conclude I've got -p3, including the BIND update.
However 'uname -a' says something else:

FreeBSD mumble.ucsc.edu 7.0-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Wed Jun 18

And although /usr/sbin/named has been updated, it appears not to have
been upgraded:

$ /usr/sbin/named -v

I don't use freebsd-update myself, but as I understand it, the kernel
doesn't get modified just to change the versioning infomation, so if an
update doesn't affect the kernel, you don't see a change in uname -a.

You've got p3, don't worry. There was no kernel update in p3, hence you 
got the p2 GENERIC kernel. If you want uname to actually show p3, you 
will have to recompile your kernel,  using something like this (assuming 
you got the kernel sources installed and intend to keep using GENERIC):


cd /usr/src
make buildkernel installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC
and then reboot

However the only difference will be in the -p number, nothing else so 
you don't have to do it.


FWIW, the /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh contains the -p number you see in 
uname, and this changes everytime freebsd-update fetches updates - 
whether they include kernel updates or not.  Some people (especially 
those responsible for large number of machines) will recompile the 
kernel anyway, so they can easily see their patchlevel using uname.

Re: options WITNESS and locks

2008-07-14 Thread Kris Kennaway

Yony Yossef wrote:

Hi all.

I'm trying to debug a spinlock held too long error.
Therefore I thought compiling my kernel with options WITNESS would be a
good idea.

Using the WITNESS kernel I cannot load my driver with any MTX_SPIN mutex.
I had to change it all to MTX_DEF since every MTX_SPIN got me this error:

panic: lock (network driver) spin mutex does not match earlier (sleep mutex)
lock


It means that somewhere you are treating a mutex with that name as a 
sleep mutex and in other places as a spin mutex.  WITNESS works on the 
lock name so this may or may not be a bug.


However, default mutexes should be used in most cases anyway (bear in 
mind that default mutexes will also spin when it makes sense for them to 
do so).



So I changed it all to MTX_DEF, just to see if things will work.
Now I can load my driver, but calling ifconfig shows a new crash:

mtnic0: Activating port:1
mtnic0: Ethernet address: 00:00:00:00:08:88
mtnic0: Activating port:2
mtnic1: Ethernet address: 00:00:00:00:08:89

 2nd 0x809eee00 ACPI root bus (ACPI root bus) @
/usr/src/sys/dev/acpica/acpi.c:1022


You are acquiring a lock that is sleepable (i.e. legal for consumers 
to sleep while holding it), after first acquiring another lock that is 
not sleepable.  The danger is that if some code sleeps while holding 
both the first and second lock, then other code that tries to acquire 
the first lock will deadlock indefinitely.


This is often due to a programming or design error.

Calculating disk space with ZFS

2008-07-14 Thread Steve Bertrand

Hi all,

I'm configuring Amanda over ZFS, with plans for a five 'tape' diskless 
cycle.


When I'm calculating the size of each 'tape', should I divide up my 
dedicated backup space based on a 'df -h', or a 'zpool list'?


Assume that if I go by the 'zpool list' command, I'd like to allocate 
1.8TB, divided by five to tapes. Should I use this number, or would it 
be more appropriate to slice up the space based on the 'df -h' below? 
I'm assuming the latter, but I'd just like to ask for clarification.

Mutt allows one to specify any headers you like, even being able

One could also contruct your own headers, and feed it through
sendmail:

There is a blank line separating this message body from the

named and its hourly reports

2008-07-14 Thread jonathan michaels
first, i am not subscribed to teh list .. tooo much volume please use
the Reply-To: for reply.

i've just upgraded to freebsd v6.2 from a decade of using freebsd
v2.2.5-release .. most reliably most stable, by comparison this v6.2
has been a nightmare over this last year .. so many changes so many
things different from 2.2.5 stuff that was taken for granted that never
tirned up as part of teh ansers to the few questions i'v managed to
ask. so frustrating .. moan mode off!

i've tried teh hand book, even muddled my way through google, teh only
reference that has surfaced is a pointer to the fact the this error
message is because named is running in a sandbox ??? d'ont know when
that happened but freebsd now runs named from a sandbox ..

this machine is a router/gateway and old 486 with a small scsi hdd that
is rapidly filling up from this and others, to my mind silly error
messages.

is there some way to fix thins, is it a hard error, can i run named not
in a sandbox, i'm also seeing other errors that seem (to my mind) to be
related to this, but i am not sure so i'm keeping my mouth shut untill
i can work it out and find teh real culprit .. i have mild brain damage
that impinges on my cognitive process, ergo the poor typing
(neurological damage) and problems with language/understanding.

some pointers would be most appreciated .. i've been struggling with
this for aover a year now and do not know where else to go ??

sorry for teh whinge

most kind regards and gracious appreciations.

jonathan

I have just committed a changeset as 180532 which are essentially quirks
that recognize and sets some parameters for D630.  With Ariff's latest
work on -CURRENT, it should make D630's audio work.  If you use -STABLE,
please do the following:

1. Checkout /sys/dev/sound from -HEAD, either svn or cvs should work;
2. Do a s,kproc_,kthread_,g replace over the code;
3. Recompile /sys/modules/sound.

My plan is to MFC all these changes next week.  Please let me know if
you have any problems.

Cheers,

Check interface-interval:

The server will scan the network interface list every
interface-interval minutes. The default is 60 minutes. The maximum value
is 28 days (40320 minutes). If set to 0, interface scanning will only
occur when the configuration file is loaded. After the scan, the server
will begin listening for queries on any newly discovered interfaces
(provided they are allowed by the listen-on configuration), and will
stop listening on interfaces that have gone away. 


If you don't need bind to listen on tun0, just set interface interval to
0.


HTH,
Yuri

OT-ish: fedora-crash-single user fsck; FreeBSD-crash-smooth recovery

2008-07-14 Thread Steve Franks
So, after much tough consideration, I've put Fedora on my laptop.
FreeBSD just won't do a large-ish number of desktop things  (I have 5
FreeBSD systems from 1-10 years old and not a single one will suspend
correctly, even after following the instructions in the handbook.
Just unacceptable for a laptop.  No flash in firefox, I hate flash,
but it's crippling not to have.  Lots of unsupported hardware, etc. [I
know, should have bought a thinkpad, not a bloody compaq]).

Having ran it for about a week, I've got to say, I've really been
taking for granted the stability of FreeBSD.  As people frequently
observe, it just doesn't crash (unless I plug in a weird flash drive,
camera, etc., and I shouldn't be plugging those things into my servers
anyway).  Yea FreeBSD!  Fedora has crashed at least 5 times in one
week.  I guess the demands of running user applications are just too
much (interestingly, it never crashes doing wine, which seems to run
everything these days; most crashes seem related to abusing X (i.e.
changing resolution, dual monitors, etc)).

One other thought on FreeBSD vs. Fedora: dudes, rpm dependencies are
junk (or put differently, our ports maintainers are saints)!  Every
3rd install I have to manually find some .so file.  Worse yet, try
linking libc.a!  What joker took it out of the path!  I've got to
install an rpm to rebuild the kernel!? What about exporting a default
CFLAGS?  FreeBSD was built to compile, not just serve!  Now I
understand why dumb questions on the FreeBSD list occasionally
engender riddicule - linux is dumbbed down almost as bad as windows,
whereas FreeBSD gives me a sense of freedom from stuff I don't need,
and quick builds for that which I do (except acpi ;).

Ok, I'll quit ranting and actually ask a question: The real big thing
that suprised me (about Fedora), is that every damn time it crashes, I
have to sit through 20 minutes of fsck when it boots, then it cries,
gags, and throws me into a root console to run fsck again, manually,
for 20 more minutes.  I'm thinking about symlinking fsck to a rather
dirtier word on the Fedora box.

This has only once ever happened on FreeBSD and I had a gmirror on a
bad disk controller.  What with the crappy usb sticks  such, I've
probably crashed my FreeBSD boxes 10-50 times, and it always boots
right up and does an fsck in the background.  So compare, one manual
fsck in, say, 10 computer-years, vs. 5 in one week.  I'm about ready
to ditch Fedora and spend the time sending logs to freebsd-acpi,
manually configuring amd, etc, etc...

Is ext2/3 really that bad?

Steve

Continuing problems with Xorg 7.3

2008-07-14 Thread Arthur Barlow
I'm still trying to sort out my problems since I changed my old  
Gateway E-1400 from 6.3 to 7.0.  Everything worked fine under 6.3.  I  
decided however that I would do a clean install and overwrite the old  
partition.  Everything installed and seemed to work fine, until I  
tried to configure X.  Regardless of the settings, I cannot seem to  
get the image to lock.  Xorg reads all the equipment correctly with  
PCIscan.  I also reads the H and V setting on my SyncMaster 910T  
monitor correctly.


The graphics chip is the Intel 82810 dc-100.  Before it used the i810  
driver, though under 7.0 I also tried the intel and vesa  
drivers.  Still no luck.  The only error I notice in Xorg.0.log is  
the following:


drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
[drm] failed to load kernel module 1810
(EE) [drm] drmOpen failed.

There is no dri device in my /dev directory, but I don't know if  
that matters.  I've tried to comment out the load dri option, but  
no luck, it tries to load it anyway.  I also tried option NoDRI, but  
that doesn't seem to work either.  Anyone have any ideas, as I still  
am unable to run X?

Re: Windows Firefox in Wine: Ugly Fonts

 Ross Cameron a __crit :
  You have two options to resolve this issue:
 Copy the fonts folder over from a WinXP/Vista install to the
  relevant wine bottle.or
 Install the winetricks tool and let it install all the Windows
  fonts for you.
  
  Hope this helps.
 
 Unfortunately neither works; I copied the fonts directory in a
 Windows XP installation to .wine/drive_c/windows/ to no avail,
 removed it and used winetricks to install allfonts (corefonts,
 tahoma, liberation) with similar results.
 Further suggestions?



I found that running winecfg and playing around with screen resolution
slider fixed it. This was after I installed the fonts.
