On Wednesday 23 July 2008 03:47:04 Ted Mittelstaedt wrote: This seems to be a common misperception about ports. Ports aren't something magical. They do exactly what you would do from the commandline (i.e. ./configure, make, make install), except they come with several bonuses. 1) The port maintainer has already worked out all the quirks to make it compile and install properly on FreeBSD. 2) The port maintainer has already supplied patches that allow the software to build correctly on FreeBSD. 3) All the dependencies are already taken care of. 4) Upgrading is quite simple and straightforward. 5) The software is now architechture-independent (in most cases), meaning you can move from Intel to AMD (for example) without having to worry that the software will no longer build and you'll have to start from scratch again. For example, I decided today that I wanted to try out some software named arguseye. So I downloaded and untarred the program. I looked at the dependencies. It requires a number of perl modules, some of which are not in ports. So, I just created three new perl ports to satisfy those dependencies and submitted them this afternoon. Once those are accepted into the tree, I'll create the arguseye port and submit it as well. Then, when someone else wants to install arguseye, all they will have to do is type make install clean in the port directory and everything that they need will be installed for them. Unless you're a glutton for punishment, why would you do all that yourself? Because maybe you don't care for the porter's choice of defaults. Many programs come with hard-coded defaults that are modified in a config file. For example cistron-radius. Another example is the dspam port. The porter for that insisted on using a default of apache vhost. However the default apache port does not activate this. I don't give a rat's ass that vhost is supposedly more secure. Another one that always pisses me off is the porter's choice in building uw-imap to turn off plaintext passwords. And the default for pine is also to turn off plaintext support. Another problem is that not all porters are good about maintaining their ports. For example icradius. Someone spent a lot of time creating the port for that. Then just let it die. Another is the open source ingres database. Julian ported that one then lost interest, it died sometime around FBSD 4.X Another problem with ports is that all of them like pulling the original source from the author's site. I've had a few where the author released the code under GPL then a few years later lost interest, stopped paying whatever ISP he had the main site for the program at, and the porter also lost interest in the project and never bothered obtaining the last available tarfile from the authors site and uploading it to freebsd, then both disappeared. Another one I can recall is the gated code, similar issue. The fundamental achillies heel of the ports system is it makes the assumption that every package in the ports system is popular and will be supported for the indefinite future by the original package developer. The ports system counts on this insofar that it assumes that if the original porter loses interest and stops tracking the master site, that someone else will step in and assume responsibility for maintaining the port. The reality is that in every release of FreeBSD, some ports go wanting for sponsors, and nobody steps forward and so when the port stops building, the FreeBSD maintainers simply cut it out of the ports tree, plus anything dependent on it. This assumption is fine for people running vanilla apache or whatever systems, which is most people. But, if your doing anything that isn't plain-jane middle of the road, you better assume that if your using a series of ports, to make detailed notes, and save the ports, and save the patches, and save the distfiles. You may need to see how they did it in an older FreeBSD system when a new version of FreeBSD comes out that is missing one or more of the ports you depend on. Ultimately, ports isn't any different than most other things. When it's properly executed it's great. But proper execution of the entire thing depends on every porter who has an active port in the system doing the right thing, and there's so many of them that statistically, some of them are going to be flakes.

I have a working Netware 5.1 installation which will no longer recognise the VOL2: volume (which is on a RAID5 in the PV220S). I think this is the latest in a long line of problems with the 220S, there's many annoyed users around these parts who have had problems with them). In short, I can't use Netware to either mount or VRepair the damaged volume, so I have the 4 disk RAID5 set which I can't attach to any other controller (this is the only PERC3/DC I have, which is based on an LSI Logic controller, all the other RAID controllers I have in my Dells are PERC3/Di, which are based on Adaptec controllers and can't recognise the LSI Logic array). I was hoping that maybe Linux or Unix/BSD would have enough NWFS code to be able to attach the volume directly and treat it as a local filesystem rather than being transported across the network via NCP.

Re: NWFS filesystem support in FreeBSD
VOL2: volume (which is on a RAID5 in the PV220S). I think this is the latest in a long line of problems with the 220S, there's many annoyed users around these parts who have had problems with them). In short, I can't use Netware to either mount or VRepair the damaged volume, so I have the 4 disk RAID5 set which I can't attach to any other controller (this is the only PERC3/DC I have, which is based on an LSI Logic controller, all the other RAID controllers I have in my Dells are PERC3/Di, which are based on Adaptec controllers and can't recognise the LSI Logic array). I was you've got the punishment for using expensive proprietary software and hardware instead of cheap open source software without any extra hardware... hoping that maybe Linux or Unix/BSD would have enough NWFS code to be able to attach the volume directly and treat it as a local filesystem rather than being transported across the network via NCP. you have to seek for recovery software for netware volume. if you are sure (or almost) that it's RAID problem i think i can help you but mail priv. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Firefox3 port problem

Switch to alternate screen buffer
Hi, this is difficult to google for. In a terminal window I oftenly pipe some progams output to vim or to less: $ someprg | vim - When the program fails and outputs an error message to stderr this will be overwritten by Vim. I know from some old Linux installations that Less and Vim are able to switch to an alternate screen buffer. They use the escape sequences \e[?1049h and \e[?1049l to switch back respectively. How can I activate this in FreeBSD? Thanks in advance.

what do I do when a new piece of hardware doesn't even show up in dmesg?
The only stumbling block to ditching windows on my laptop is a network card. I have a vanilla ath card that works fine under win32 and fedora, as well as a lucent-branded wi card. Neither even appears in dmesg when I put it in pccard0/cbb0. If I stick a compact flash card in an adapter, however, it looks to work (haven't tried mounting it). Anyway, how do I even start to debug this, since I have no output? I notice one of the lights on the card flashes when I plug it in, but that could just be part of it's power-up process... Eventually, I plan to hack my bios to get a unsupported network card to run without locking up the bios boot process, but from what I've read, that's alot of work...

Re: what do I do when a new piece of hardware doesn't even show up in dmesg?
You need to make certain all the necessary modules for your card are loaded. Try 'kldload ath' and then put the card in and see if that does anything. Also, use 'pciconf -lv' to confirm what the card is detected as.

DNS and DHCP Management System
Good morning, When network are keep growing over time, network services such as dns and dhcp are playing an important function to any network administrators/engineers, which for a single downtime, it will cause a chaos to end users. By having redundancy/fail-over/etc services and proper plans, these failures will be mitigated and reduced, and off-course, transparent to end users. Without proper planning, choosing suitable tools/application, and testing, I believe that deployment and management of dns and dhcp services will become headache and a big challenge to network administrators/engineers. So, in this e-mail, I would like to ask and seek advices on how do you manage these two services, and from your past experiences, which is the best free/open-souce tools to manage a big deployment of dns and dhcp services?

Re: Sendmail local LAN delivery

There is a Mail Hub outside the Class B Net which communicates with the Internet and delivers the mails sent by the workstations. All workstations have a Smarthost entry in the cf file. Incoming mails are collected by the mailhub, which provides IMAP and POP access for all workstations. No mail coming from the Internet will be delivered directly to the workstations. Everything works fine, exept one (small) problem. How can I configure the sendmal.cf from the local workstations to send the mail addressed to a neighbour workstation (eg. from host1.intra015.bnet.ourdomain.com to host2.intra016.bnet.ourdomain.com) directly. Sending it to the mailhub and then sending it back to the Intranet is no option due to firewall restrictions. I apreciate any help, thanks Bruno Bruno, If I understand your question correctly, you will need to smarthosts, one on the LAN side, and one on the WAN/internet side. You will have to setup the LAN smarthost to forward mail to the WAN smarthost that it cannot deliver. You will have to enable the LAN smarthost and WAN smarthost to be able to pass mail through your firewall. Sendmail uses DNS for most host resolution, so you will need to setup MX records for the various LAN hosts to go to the LAN smarthost. Hope this helps. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How do you handle port upgrades that deal with custom compile configurations (such as exim with postgresql)? Do you build a port on one system and install it as a package on all the others? I come from a Slackware background, and in the past I would compile the update on a test system then distribute and install to all the other servers. You may take a look at ports-mgmt/tinderbox.

I haven't been able how to do this in wireshark - other than resetting the time in each http.request and matching to the returning http.response...which doesn't scale at all :P Is there a tool out there that would help , or preferred method to approach this kind of task?
