Doesn't mean that it will answer.
I saw your previous posts which has the authoritative declaration.
Authoritative (from my experience) means that if a client had
previously gotten an address, a non-authoritative server won't correct
the client's lease. Think of a roaming laptop or a PDA with wifi.
An authoritative server will say No, that won't work, then the
client will release any knowledge of the previous IP, and search for
new dhcp servers.
Since you weren't getting leases when your firewall was disabled, I
would lean toward a misconfigured dhcpd.conf. I don't think I've seen
in the same post:
ifconfig rl1
cat /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf
Please provide these. Thanks.

Ok. Chomping heavily .. I've just reviewed this thread through four
digests, rather a top-posting, multi-tail-quoting mess. Please trim
quotes to the necessary then add your response; we've seen the rest.
mac# $ dhcping -h 00:23:32:dc:72:19 -s 192.168.1.1
no answer
bsd# tcpdump -i rl1 -n port 67 or port 68

You could perhaps usefully add 'or arp' to that tcpdump.
Like your earlier tcpdump; the Mac's asking and 192.168.1.1 is not
responding. I don't think anyone's asked yet what you get from:
# netstat -finet -an | grep 67
ie, is dhcpd really listening? something like ..
udp4 0 0 192.168.1.1.67*.*
If not, there's your problem .. if so, looks like your firewall might be
blocking those packets from reaching 192.168.1.1 (OR its responses back)
If dhcpd is running, even if it's misconfigured, I'd expect to see some
response if it's receiving requests.
bsd# arp -a
? (192.168.1.234) at 00:23:6c:86:41:d9 on rl1 [ethernet] - this is my
MacBook
? (192.168.1.1) at 00:13:8f:86:2f:64 on rl1 permanent [ethernet] - this is
the layer 3 switch
So your switch and your rl1 interface have the same IP? That can't be good,
can't see why it would affect things when the switch isn't in action though.
# sockstat -4l | grep dhcp
dhcpddhcpd 4747 7 udp4 *:67 *:*
Yeah sockstat's always useful too; both it and netstat -a will show udp
port 67 listening if dhcpd's running (right).
From a later message ..
pool {
option domain-name-servers cns01.hdsnet.hu;
max-lease-time 300;
range 192.168.1.200 192.168.1.253;
allow unknown-clients;
}
}
.. it seems from the arp -a above that the Mac already has 192.168.1.234
which is within that range? However, concentrate on getting as far as
seeing return responses from dhcpd on port 67 to clients with tcpdump,
with your firewall momentarily disabled if need be ..

I don't recall ever seeing a pool inside a subnet declaration like this.
A subnet declaration can use all the declaration in your pool.
Pure curiousity, because I am not looking up the config syntax..
comment out (or delete) the pool { and } lines only. which bring the
statements to the subnet clause.
restart dhcpd, and retry
IIRC, pools are only useful if you have two pool definitions.

How to set up WEP network on 8.0 in rc.conf?
I use this working script to start WEP network: ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 ifconfig wlan0 ssid xyz abc weptxkey 1 deftxkey 1 wepmode on wepkey 0xXX up dhcpcd wlan0 How do I write an equivalent line into rc.conf? Section 31.3.3.1.4 in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/network-wireless.html suggests this: # ifconfig /ath0/ ssid my_net wepmode on weptxkey 3 wepkey 3:0x3456789012 \ inet /192.168.1.100/ netmask /255.255.255.0/ So I wrote: ifconfig_ath0=ssid xyz\ abc weptxkey 1 deftxkey 1 wepmode on wepkey 0xXX DHCP and it doesn't work. This line: ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 became necessary in 8.0 and it creates wlan0 device, which is missing when I use the above line in rc.conf. There's also a space in ssid. So what would be the correct rc.conf in my case?

I don't recall ever seeing a pool inside a subnet declaration like this.
A subnet declaration can use all the declaration in your pool.
Pure curiousity, because I am not looking up the config syntax..
comment out (or delete) the pool { and } lines only. which bring the
statements to the subnet clause.
restart dhcpd, and retry
IIRC, pools are only useful if you have two pool definitions.
thanks... hope this works.

Do you really have some reports saying that jdk16 doesn't work in your situation? How can i solve the problem? Is java 1.5 also available if i install it on AMD64? On debian this is a Problem.

I'll keep disabling it as long as I can. But these days digikam can't talk worth a damn to my digital camera and it used to fine. I've used gtkam but not digikam. These days I just use the command line program gphoto2 to copy pictures from my camera to my computer. That is fast and efficient. And it produces an error message when there is something wrong on the USB bus. Maybe digikam has a logfile where you can check for errors? Or a --verbose flag that lets you see errors when starting it from a temninal. I am wondering if my use of hal might be the culprit, but I never log when I change things and don't want to accuse if I don't have cause. According to /usr/ports/sysutils/hal/Makefile, hal is built without USB support (configure flag --disable-usb) on FreeBSD. So I would be suprised if it is a cause of USB problems. But since I know squat about hald, I could be talking out of my ass right now. :-) I also don't want to re-re-compile, as a test, all the stuff that I re-compiled when I started using hal. Have you noticed any USB issues on your machine that you can't blame hal for (because you don't use it)? Not really. Some umass devices cannot handle full-speed data transfers, but that seems to be a feature of a crappy USB chipset in the device in question. The USB stack in 8.x seems to be an improvement over the one in 7.x though.

The proper place to look for changing this: etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant where it is hard-written to the start-up script/routine. This should probably be something that is handled in the default rc.conf through wpa_supplicant_flags and a default set for them to start from so it can at least be changed on a per use basis.

Support for Hauppauge 950Q USB tuner
Can the 950Q HDTV tuner be made to work with FreeBSD? The device is identified by dmesg but of course the Hauppauge firmware must be somehow transfered to the device and then something like the Linux dvb-apps must be used for tuning and streaming. My intent is use the 950 with Zotac IONITX mobo which has Intel ION and Nvidia chipsets. Mplayer must have vdpau enabled. I am not fond of MythTv, in case anyone is wondering. =Bob ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I've got an OpenSolaris, NetBSD, and FreeBSD cd burned and ready to go. In days gone by, you'd answer use Xen of course. However, VBox has made a great deal of progress lately making my decision more difficult. At this point, I'm leaning towards OpenSolaris because of Dom0 support and ZFS. At work I use Debian Lenny w/ Xen and ganeti which is good. However, I'm used to better documentation and a more consistent layout which IMO the Penguin sucks at, and I mean get ready for a world class donkey punch because if you're not already a skilled user you'll need to become one to figure out any sort of non-standard customization you might want. Also have to use grub when running xen. Grub config is pretty easy but full of gotchas. As also mentioned, jails are great and way more efficient than either xen or vbox, but sometimes you can't run fbsd. -- Adam Vande More ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

is there difference between VTY and vty in sysinstall?

Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0 /stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0 ... press ALT-F4 or sysinstall call it 'VTY4' ... Good Luck!

Re: am I the only one, wrt gcc44 -- it is failing and I can't build octave or much else
Here are partial listings of my config files. Add these entries to your config files and see if that does the trick. I can't be 100% sure that everything is required, but it is what I have, and it works. Attached is the xorg.conf file I generated. Place it in the directory /etc/X11/. When you have done these things, make sure your user belongs to the group wheel, then login. To start X, give the command: startx You should get 3 windows, one of them labeled login in the title bar. If you type exit while inside this window, then return, that will end your X session. You will have some fatal error messages in your console window when X finishes. Also, make sure you have installed the nvidia drivers per my other postings. You can check if you have the package installed by typing: pkg_info | grep nvidia You should see at a minimum: nidia-driver-185.18.29 NVidia graphics card binary drivers for hardware OpenGL ren You have to build this packages and install it. This process is documented in the NetBSD documents and my other postings for installing FreeBSD on a Compaq Presario CQ60.
