Hi Dennis, Instead of relying on a particular cvsup server, how about installing fastest_cvsup (http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/fastest_cvsup)? If you run it in your script and pass the resulting hostname to csup, you'll get the server with the best response at that time. That was interesting.

two ata-related problems
Two questions about installing FreeBSD 8.1 on a Dell Precision 420 (yes, I know it's old): 1. Should FreeBSD 8.1 be able to recognize a 100MB ATAPI Zip drive? I'm not finding it in the dmesg, although BIOS Setup recognizes it. (It and a CDROM are on the secondary IDE channel; I've tried with each of them as master and either way the CD is recognized but the Zip is not.) 2. It currently has the original A01 BIOS. I'm going to have to update that, because it doesn't recognize the 320GB drive I've added as a new boot drive. With the 320GB installed as unit 0 (master) on the primary IDE channel, the A01 BIOS won't even recognize the previously-working 40GB drive which is now unit 1; so the BIOS disables that channel entirely keeping FreeBSD from seeing those drives either. A BIOS upgrade should be straightforward, but while Googling I ran into a posting where someone apparently had a lot of trouble with a BIOS upgrade for one of these of boxes. Thus the question: Has anyone here had any experience, either good or bad, with running FreeBSD on one of these with an upgraded BIOS? If so, which version? I found A06, A07, A10, A11, and A13 on Dell's FTP site. dmesg (from a USB boot) attached. The reported 320GB (on an add-in card) is a twin of the one described above that isn't recognized on the primary on-board channel. I want them on separate channels to improve mirroring performance.

Thus cron need not be restarted whenever a crontab file is modified. Note that the crontab(1) command updates the modification time of the spool directory whenever it changes a crontab. From the original post crontab seems to be working, so all I can suggest is to ls -ld /var/cron/tabs before and after using crontab -e and see if the modtime is being changed correctly. ___ 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 could use some help figuring out if this is a bug, and if so, where to file it. Here's the scenario: - FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE server, sharing a ZFS filesystem via NFSv4. I think that this is the beginning of your problems - even the developer who is working on NFSv4 says it's too experimental to be used in real world. - Linux client (I've tested with RHEL 5.4 and Debian Lenny) mounting said filesystem with NFSv4. - A user on the Linux client does a Subversion checkout onto the mounted filesystem. At the end of the checkout, access to the filesystem hangs. nfsd on the FreeBSD server and rpciod on the Linux client seem to be in a tight loop, and there's lots of network traffic between them. I can reproduce this every time. The problem does not occur if the backing filesystem is UFS instead of ZFS, if NFSv3 is used instead of NFSv4, or if the client is FreeBSD instead of Linux. ... but you may have stumbled on something specific. I recommend you repeat this same post (and others you have on the similar topic) on the freebsd-fs at freebsd.org mailing list, the developer (Rick Macklem) reads it. ___ 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'm going to have to update that, because it doesn't recognize the 320GB drive I've added as a new boot drive. With the 320GB installed as unit 0 (master) on the primary IDE channel, the A01 BIOS won't even recognize the previously-working 40GB drive which is now unit 1; so the BIOS disables that channel entirely keeping FreeBSD from seeing those drives either. A BIOS upgrade should be straightforward, but while Googling I ran into a posting where someone apparently had a lot of trouble with a BIOS upgrade for one of these of boxes. Thus the question: Has anyone here had any experience, either good or bad, with running FreeBSD on one of these with an upgraded BIOS? If so, which version? I found A06, A07, A10, A11, and A13 on Dell's FTP site. A01 gave me a bunch of problems, although I don't really remember the details (it was more than five years ago!) at this point. BIOS upgrades were no problem at all. I stopped upgrading the BIOS once everything worked -- at least, everything I noticed.

Boot Drive Nomenclature and How to Figure it out
I have been writing a script to build a system from a mfsboot startup and it is going well but I want to revisit part of the script that I don't think I did a very good job with. Is there an automatic way to tell which of the devices shown in /dev is a likely system drive? This is before anything is mounted. We can usually figure it out ourselves, but is there a way for a script to figure out automatically which character device could be the one we are going to put the OS on and use as our boot drive? I know this sounds really obvious and you can tell scripts not to use /dev/acdx as they are CDROM devices, but system drives can actually take many different names depending on whether they are RAIDs SCSI IDE, etc. Any good suggestions are appreciated.

FWD: High Performance Custom Fields for Multi-Tenant SaaS Architectures
Thought you might find this interesting and, hopefully helpful Subscriber. Another article written by our CEO, Sanjay Bhatia. High Performance Custom Fields for Multi-Tenant SaaS Architectures This article shows a simple way to give applications with [1]multi-tenant architectures the ability to add custom fields while keeping the performance, type safety and [2]reporting capabilities of the relational model and SQL language. SaaS Takes Over the ASP Model In the late 90's application service providers started leveraging the availability of abundant bandwidth and the popularity of the web to deliver applications in an [3]ASP model. Essentially the application would be hosted on a shared server and managed by the ASP. While this was a step in the right direction, there were still significant challenges with this approach. These models evolved into what is now knows as Software as a Service or [4]SaaS. SaaS architectures introduced multi-tenancy which allowed pools of high powered resources to be shared in a different way. Rather than customers having their own web server and database, a shared infrastructure served dozens or sometimes thousands of customers. The Customization Requirement Businesses generally need some level of customization for all their software. The most common need is to store information that is specific to that business, but may not be something every single customer needs to have. For instance, we are a [5]salesforce.com customer. For all our leads, we track the download date so when know when a lead has [6]downloaded a trial of our [7]self-service reporting product for evaluation purposes. Since most [8]salesforce.com customers do not have downloadable trials, it would not make sense for them add this just for us. If you did that in a multi-tenant environment, you'd quickly end up with a data architecture that is unwieldy from a maintenance perspective. Instead, salesforce let's us add custom fields that are relevant to us. They've done a great job of engineering the system so the custom fields work pretty much like a stock field that the system ships with. If you are working on a SaaS application, you will likely run into the same scenario. Inevitably, customers needed the ability to extend the applications. Since there was a shared code base and schema, vendors needed to find a way to deliver this functionality without changing the database schema which was shared across all customers. Two main approaches became popular. Two Popular Methods Method Description Advantages Disadvantages [9]Entity Attribute Value(EAV) This method uses name-value pairs Single universal schema across all tenants. Eliminates all advantages of using a relational database. Special Code must be written to access the data. Significant performance and scalability problems with large data sets or objects with a large number of fields. Reporting becomes nearly impossible Custom Joined Table This method adds a secondary table per tenant and which will be joined. Relatively high performance Retains the benefits of SQL technology Does not scale to a large number of tenants. The number of custom tables becomes impossible to manage and administer. The application schema must change at run time. There Is A Better Way One way to retain all the benefits of the relational model without adding lots of customer-specific tables is to use a single, generic table to store the data and a second table to map it to customer specific fields. Since databases optimize types differently, we will create a set of columns for each time. Note that under this approach we do have a limit to the number of maximum fields there are. For extrely large systems, you may want to break each type up into a separate table. Create script for custom fields table. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[CustomFields]( [TenantID] [int], [TableName] [varchar](50), [EntityID] [int], [Int1] [int] NULL, [Int2] [int] NULL, [Int3] [int] NULL, [String1] [varchar](50) NULL, [String2] [varchar](50) NULL, [String3] [varchar](50) NULL, [DateTime1] [datetime] NULL, [DateTime2] [datetime] NULL, [DateTime3] [datetime] NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] This table will store the actual data. The TenantID field locks the data to that particular account or customer in a multi-tenant system with a shared database. TableName represents the name of the table where the entity is stored. The EntityID is the primary key of whatever object this links to. The rest of the fields store actual data based on the type of the field. So if we just created a Lead in our [10]CRM system and needed to record a download date as a custom field our insert would look something like this. INSERT INTO CustomFields( TenantID, TableName, EntityID, DateTime1) VALUES (1,'Leads',1,'08/18/2010') To retrieve the data we would do a LEFT JOIN. This lets us retrieve any custom fields. SELECT * FROM Leads LEFT JOIN CustomFields ON Leads.TenantID=CustomFields.TenantID AND TableName='Leads' AND EntityID=LeadID Next

I believe gpart checks the geom sector which the last one of a particular
geom class. The sector is written anytime the geom device is added or
updated. This applies only to geom devices which are hardcoded. For
example, /dev/ad0 and /dev/ad0p1 would both be seperate geom classes and
have their own meta-data sector.
FWIW, the only suitable hard disk devices I know of are:
/dev/ad{0-9}
/dev/ada{0-9}
/dev/da{0-9}
If you're writing a test, I would probably grep dmesg for the presence of
one of them. The first device appearance is probably a prime candidate for
installation target.

Regex Help For Procmail
I use procmail for mail delivery and I'm trying to concoct the right
regex to match From: headers and deliver to a folder. However mail is
sent from various addresses so I want to match all that end with
famous-smoke.com. Here's an example of a header:
From: Famous Smoke Shopannou...@email.famous-smoke.com
Because I also occasionally order, I don't want to catch mail from
anything that has the word Orders and Famous in the From field.
Thus here is my procmail recipe:
# Deliver order info to inbox
:0
*^From:.[Ff]amous.*[Oo]rder.*famous-smoke.com$
${HOME}/Maildir/new/
# Deliver other email to folder
:0
*^From:.*famous-smoke.com$
${HOME}/Maildir/.Shopping/Famous Smoke/Email/
According to my procmail log, the From: header does not match. I would
expect the example From: header above to match the second regex and be
delivered to the specified folder. Where is my error?
Thanks,
Drew

Need to run a Command Once on Boot. FreeBSD8.1
I seem to recall that there is some sort of stub that will let one execute a script which runs at the last stage of the boot process but I can't seem to remember enough to look it up. I need to run a small script to do pwd_mkdb just once to sync the passwd data base after booting a 8.1 system for the first time. The system is being built via script and /etc/master.passwd has a couple of accounts that the data base doesn't know about. After running pwd_mkdb against /etc/master.passwd, all is well but we are locked out of the system until this happens. I may even make the script destroy itself after launching since it never needs to run after that one time. Thanks.

Custom Kernel -- Module exclusion by association
My meaning in the 'subject' is: Currently we want to: 'options QUOTA' in the kernel. We do not want to compile any modules that we don't have to (effort to save time). If adding support for 'QUOTA' doesn't require any module rebuilding, how do we specify/exclude 'all' module building using 'WITHOUT_MODULES' in the /etc/make.conf? In addition, if there are modules that need to be rebuilt in 'association' with the 'options QUOTA', or any other kernel addition, how are we to tell 'what is' needed and/or what 'is not' needed before blindly omitting modules from the kernel build process? 2) The man make.conf shows a listing for 'KERNCONF', the installed (7.3) file: /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf makes no mention of this. Should we decide to employ the use of 'KERNCONF' within our /etc/make.conf, does this get auto-magically read if we only type: env -i make buildkernel KERNCONF --without typing a configuration filename? Assuming of course we saved the named file in /usr/src/sys/arch/conf.

I upgraded my amd64 FreeBSD-8.0-RELEASE-p4 system to
FreeBSD-8.1-RELEASE earlier this week. After completing the upgrade
and rebooting, I also am having the above reported problem.
I am not using dhcp, I have configured a static IP address.
My system also has nfe NIC. I wonder if this problem is specific to
systems using nfe network driver. The problem was not occuring on my
8.0 system, before the upgrade to 8.1.
Here are my boot messages that display this problem.
[snip]
It is pretty clear that the network services are all getting started
twice, once before dropping to single user shell, and a second time
after exiting single user.
It is also pretty clear that nfe0: link state changed to DOWN is
happening at a bad time; and nothing that requires network to be up is
waiting for it to change to UP.
I have a workaround for this problem, albeit an ugly workaround. I
edited /etc/rc.d/netif to add a 10 second sleep as each network
interface is brought up:
if [ -n ${_ok} ]; then
case ${_func} in
ifn_start)
_str='Starting'
;;
ifn_stop)
_str='Stopping'
;;
esac
echo ${_str} Network:${_ok}.
if check_startmsgs; then
for ifn in ${_ok}; do
/sbin/ifconfig ${ifn}
sleep 10
done
fi
fi
This is probably overkill, and for me it adds 20 seconds to boot time,
but it works for me until the general problem is solved.
I think there is a general bug with the rc.d/rcorder framework,
because even outside this weird case with nfe NIC if any network mount
fails during the early part of rc processing it is repeated in the
late part via mount -a in the second passthrough. This results
potentially in multiple mounts of the same remote filesystem (e.g. if
mount_nfs is backgrounded in the first pass mount_nfs will be run a
second time in the second pass; and if the first problem isn't
resolved the second mount_nfs is also backgrounded. For me this
usually results in two mounts of the same remote filesystem, after the
(presumably temporary) network mounting problem resolves).

Re: Which of these NICs will work?
I have several Intel multi-port, (2 port, 4 port and even some 2 port fibre-optic), cards in use. All have been rock-solid, stable performers, and have hardware VLAN tagging and trunking capability. I have some 4 port cards in use with LACP+VLAN Trunking, and then use vlan interfaces in FreeBSD configured per vlan. This allows many networks to share the same interface and is great for virtualization type situations too. Just my two cents - but I'd pay the extra for the Intel because I know it just works predictably and reliably. -- Nathan Vidican nat...@vidican.com Happy FreeBSD'er since 2.2.1:) On Fri, Sep 3, 2010 at 1:32 PM, Robert Huff roberth...@rcn.com wrote: Ryan Coleman writes: Any thoughts?

If not the drive, check drive cables, the power supply and motherboard/CPU overheating. ___ 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 - This message sent via VFEmail.net http://www.vfemail.net $14.95 Lifetime accounts - 1GB disk, No bandwidth quotas! ___ 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
Why skype can't see webcam?
I have webcamd running and can see my webcam using mplayer like this: mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=640:height=480:fps=30:device=/dev/video0 But skype can't see the video. It only sees /dev/video0 device but when I try testing it image is black. v4l support was recently added into 8.1: http://www.leidinger.net/blog/2010/07/29/v4l-support-in-the-linuxulator-mfced-to-8-stable/, this is related. Anybody knows why skype can't use video? On the other hand, I tried to debug this with 'truss -f', but -f flag doesn't follow descendants of the linux process for some reason as it should. Any way to work around this?

Could be mistaken, but I have a faint memory someone said it was working for them.
