RE: Sendmail as client via smarthost and ssl
GSSAPI is the Generic Security Services Application Program Interface and NTLM is NT Lan Manager -- they are both authentication systems popular amongst various generations of Microsoft OSes. GSSAPI is actually based on that old Unix stalwart: Kerberos, and hence is also fairly popular amongst non-Microsoft types. They are some of the authentication mechanisms that come as standard with SASL implementations. Unless you know that you do need them, you almost certainly don't. ... Thanks your for the explanation. I was actually not sure whether or not these options were needed. Authentication to the smarthost did not work, and at one point I noticed the line: ... 250-AUTH GSSAPI NTLM ... coming from the server. So I gave it a try - and it still did not work.

FreeBSD Doesn't See Crucial C300 SSD on Marvell Controller
The old desktop gave up the ghost after many years of use (memory problems plus a hard drive with an increasing number of bad sectors), and I've just finished putting together a new one. Win7 x64 and Ubuntu amd64 are running on it, and I would dearly love to install FreeBSD. Hardware is an ASUS Rampage III Formula motherboard with a Crucial C300 256GB SATA 6GB/s-capable SSD connected to one of the motherboard's two internal SATA 6GB/s ports. These two ports use a Marvell 88SE9128 onboard chip as the controller. The controller is supposed to support (hardware) RAID, but of course with one drive I am using it in normal non-RAID mode. (To say this particular controller chip has a problematic reputation at the moment is a bit of an understatement. I've personally seen some weirdness, including the Crucial drive not showing up in the BIOS boot priority menu a time or two. Nevertheless, as I said Winders and Ubuntu are running and I'm really looking forward to having my favorite OS on my new box.) I also have two Hitachi Deskstar drives and a USB stick. I tried the October amd64 DVD snapshot of -CURRENT from the snapshots page, guessing it would have the latest hardware support. The DVD boots into the installer, but sysinstall only shows me the Deskstars and the USB stick as options to install to. Puttering around the lists trying to find something that has any chance of being relevant, I ran across this excerpt from a post to the freebsd-current list in October: In an attempt to get more information about this issue, I'd like to ask people on freebsd-current if they're using any Sandforce-based SSDs with FreeBSD. So far, it appears not a lot of people do, making it hard to debug this issue (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=151608). MCP5x SATA are not the best controllers for compatibility testing. They have enough problems on their own, even without Sandforce. When you tested Marvell, have you tried to use mvs(4) driver? No, I only tried to use ata(4). I tried using mvs(4) now, and that works! mvs0: Marvell 88SX6081 SATA controller port 0x4000-0x40ff mem 0xb010-0xb01f irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci1 mvs0: Gen-II, 8 3Gbps ports, Port Multiplier supported mvsch0: Marvell SATA channel at channel 0 on mvs0 mvsch1: Marvell SATA channel at channel 1 on mvs0 mvsch2: Marvell SATA channel at channel 2 on mvs0 mvsch3: Marvell SATA channel at channel 3 on mvs0 mvsch4: Marvell SATA channel at channel 4 on mvs0 mvsch5: Marvell SATA channel at channel 5 on mvs0 mvsch6: Marvell SATA channel at channel 6 on mvs0 mvsch7: Marvell SATA channel at channel 7 on mvs0 ada0 at mvsch0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 ada0: OCZ-AGILITY2 3.5 1.11 ATA-8 SATA 2.x device ada0: 300.000MB/s transfers (SATA 2.x, UDMA6, PIO 2048bytes) ada0: Command Queueing enabled ada0: 85857MB (175836528 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C) I don't know enough to understand whether using mvs has a chance of working for me.

Managing ports on multiple jails
Hi, I have multiple jails using ezjails, approx 20. I'm currently doing portsnap fetch update ezjail-admin update -P then doing a portmaster -Bad on each jail, but its pretty time consuming, esp when you have to peridically come back and check if its done and do the next one. I've tried building packages in one jail and sharing it to all the other jails. make package-recursive But sometimes a particular package won't install properly, then I'll end up building from source again.

Just my .02: I'm not sure but I think there are several issues you have to overcome, at least from my Linux experience: Assuming you are using USB (Bluetooth is similar in some ways...): 1) When you connect the Android usb port to your PC you have a multi-function usb port and you must select the correct option (or choice as their are named in Linux), this means that you should be able to either select the mass storage (sd card) or the tty. So you first need to figure out how to do that. I use CyanogenMod that has several usb debugging features but I haven't had a chance to experiment with tethering yet. Anyway, you must use soemthing at the usb layer level that handles the multi-function usb port. 2) I suspect that tethering works like most usb gsm modems in Linux, simply by mounting ttyUSB0 and the using something like wvdial with your provider's APN. So I think that once you figure out (1) you should have a tty and you can simply dial #777 or whatever your phone carrier specifies in their APN. I've tried cdce and tried modifying cdce but no luck.

I thought the simplest way would be just run sysinstall(8) and use the FDISK and BSDLABEL from the post-install dialog. FDISK went fine and in the BSDLABEL dialog I just used 'A' (auto defaults). On 'W' (write to disk) the sysinstall(8) complained about 'unable to open /dev/ad4s1a sysinstall probes hardware when it starts. Therefore, after making changes (specifically after writing) to the disk in the FDISK partition editor, you need to Ctrl-C and Abort-out and relaunch sysinstall so that it probes the new disk devices (ad4s1, ad4s2, etc.) before you can start adding BSD disklabels (ad4s1a, ad4s1b, etc.) to the slice (aka partition). This has been an age-old problem (hmmm, perhaps get could some mad karma for fixing it). I imagine that sade has this problem too. Though, what annoys me about sade is that the Ctrl-C menu doesn't work -- the Restart option does nothing and though Continue works, I'm seething over the lack of an Abort option (hmmm, perhaps should file a PR on that one). and so on for all the created partitions a...f. And also in the dev fs there were no entries created for /dev/ad4s1[a-f]. They apeared after a reboot of the system from the USB key. Reboot should not be required. Just exit sysinstall(8) and go back into it. I've made it a habit to (when using sysinstall(8) as a userland utility to format disks): 1. Launch sysinstall(8) (as root) 2. Main Menu 3. Custom 4. Partition 5. (if more than one disk is present in the system you'll be prompted to select the disk... use spacebar to select disk, then TAB over to OK and hit ENTER) 6. partition the disk in whatever manner required 7. Press `W' to write out the changes 8. (select which boot manager or None) 9. Press Ctrl-C after partition table is successfully written 10. Select `Abort' and hit ENTER then 1. Relaunch sysinstall(8) (as root) 2. Main Menu 3. Custom 4. Partition 5. (if more than one disk is present in the system, use spacebar to select disk, then TAB over to OK and hit ENTER) NOTE: This is required to select which disk to operate on within the disklabel editor 6. Press `Q' to quit-out of the FDISK partition editor (this time, we don't want to make any changes, we just needed to indicate that this is the disk that we're going to operate on within the disklabel editor) 7. (select which boot manager or None) NOTE: This time around, since we're not going to write the partition table again, it really doesn't matter what you select here NOTE: you're now back at the custom menu from step 3/4. 8. Label 9. Now use the FreeBSD Disklabel Editor to allocate FreeBSD partitions from the BIOS partition ad0s1 (or whatever your partition was named) 10. When finished, press `W' to write out changes, perform newfs actions, and mount the devices as necessary How this is supposed to work using sysinstall(8) or should one use only bsdlabel(8) directly in such a case? I'll be the first to admit that sysinstall(8) could be a little easier to use in the userland. It should be noted that sade(8) (System Administrator's Disk Editor) is no different -- sade, at this point at least, is nothing more than the `Partition' and `Label' menus ripped straight from sysinstall(8)'s `Custom' menu (with some minor other differences, like the fact that the Ctrl-C menu doesn't work whereas it does in sysinstall(8) -- really ought to file a PR on that one).

Please help direct this query to someone that can be of assistance. Or redirect me to an up to date driver listing for FreeBSD.

OpenGL 3.3 and 4.0/4.1 for FreeBSD?
Hi, I'd like to write some 3D programs with OpenGL 3.3 and OpenGL 4.0/4.1 API on FreeBSD, but I wonder which GPUs are supported at all, and which are well supported with stable drivers (on FreeBSD/i386 and FreeBSD/amd64). I know that MesaGL is still at OpenGL 2.1 level, so a proprietary closed binary blob driver + libs are needed to get 3.3 and 4.0/4.1 APIs, right? Do they have to be installed manually, or are there ports that are up to date and regularly updated? How painful is the experience? Which (GPU, driver) pair works best? I have no problems getting a new GPU, as long as it is definitely well supported on i386 and on amd64. Oh, while we're at it, I'm also interested in stuff like OpenCL and CUDA, so I guess I'll probably need nVidia hardware more than AMD/ATI atm...

If you don't mind that all 20 boxes have the same software installed; 1) Use one box or jail as the build box. Only this box/jail needs a ports tree. The others don't need /usr/ports, nor /var/db/ports or /var/db/pkg. 2a) In case of real boxes, rsync /usr/local from the build box to the other boxes. Then re-start updated ports. 2b) In case of jails, have all but the build jail share (a read-only) /usr/local via nullfs. Use rsync to copy /usr/local from the build jail to the shared location of the other jails, then restart the upgraded ports on all jails. Except from /usr/local, you might need to update stuff in other parts of the filesystem, depending on the port. Like /etc/rc.conf, or sometimes stuff in /var. The usage of nullfs (with unionfs) is described on one of my web pages: http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/unix/misc.html Look under the section Using nullfs and unionfs for the ports tree in a jail.

Yes. One has to remember that USB is just the bus just like pci, microchannel, etc. Even though you have access to the device on the bus you still need a driver for that specific ethernet chip your kernel. This is analogous to having a video card on the pci bus, you still need for the kernel to drive the specific chipset of the card regardless if it can see it on the bus.

I am wishful that at least we can get a tty just like other gsm modems and from there it's pretty straight forward using wvdial or alike.

Re: FreeBSD Doesn't See Crucial C300 SSD on Marvell Controller
On 11/1/2010 7:12 AM, Jud wrote: The old desktop gave up the ghost after many years of use (memory problems plus a hard drive with an increasing number of bad sectors), and I've just finished putting together a new one. Win7 x64 and Ubuntu amd64 are running on it, and I would dearly love to install FreeBSD. Hardware is an ASUS Rampage III Formula motherboard with a Crucial C300 256GB SATA 6GB/s-capable SSD connected to one of the motherboard's two internal SATA 6GB/s ports. These two ports use a Marvell 88SE9128 onboard chip as the controller. The controller is supposed to support (hardware) RAID, but of course with one drive I am using it in normal non-RAID mode. (To say this particular controller chip has a problematic reputation at the moment is a bit of an understatement. I've personally seen some weirdness, including the Crucial drive not showing up in the BIOS boot priority menu a time or two. Nevertheless, as I said Winders and Ubuntu are running and I'm really looking forward to having my favorite OS on my new box.) I also have two Hitachi Deskstar drives and a USB stick. I tried the October amd64 DVD snapshot of -CURRENT from the snapshots page, guessing it would have the latest hardware support. The DVD boots into the installer, but sysinstall only shows me the Deskstars and the USB stick as options to install to. Puttering around the lists trying to find something that has any chance of being relevant, I ran across this excerpt from a post to the freebsd-current list in October: In an attempt to get more information about this issue, I'd like to ask people on freebsd-current if they're using any Sandforce-based SSDs with FreeBSD. So far, it appears not a lot of people do, making it hard to debug this issue (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=151608). MCP5x SATA are not the best controllers for compatibility testing. They have enough problems on their own, even without Sandforce. When you tested Marvell, have you tried to use mvs(4) driver? No, I only tried to use ata(4). I tried using mvs(4) now, and that works! mvs0:Marvell 88SX6081 SATA controller port 0x4000-0x40ff mem 0xb010-0xb01f irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci1 mvs0: Gen-II, 8 3Gbps ports, Port Multiplier supported mvsch0:Marvell SATA channel at channel 0 on mvs0 mvsch1:Marvell SATA channel at channel 1 on mvs0 mvsch2:Marvell SATA channel at channel 2 on mvs0 mvsch3:Marvell SATA channel at channel 3 on mvs0 mvsch4:Marvell SATA channel at channel 4 on mvs0 mvsch5:Marvell SATA channel at channel 5 on mvs0 mvsch6:Marvell SATA channel at channel 6 on mvs0 mvsch7:Marvell SATA channel at channel 7 on mvs0 ada0 at mvsch0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 ada0:OCZ-AGILITY2 3.5 1.11 ATA-8 SATA 2.x device ada0: 300.000MB/s transfers (SATA 2.x, UDMA6, PIO 2048bytes) ada0: Command Queueing enabled ada0: 85857MB (175836528 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C) I don't know enough to understand whether using mvs has a chance of working for me.

Apparently M$ opened the specs a year or two ago and everyone's jumped on to use it. So where Google started was to start allowing the use of the router/nat via RNDIS USB - somehow this was easier than allowing bluetooth or wifi (probably security and available hardware features).

Re: is there a utillity...?
Gary, Keep in mind that their rate and your rate WILL be different. At least a 10% difference, due to TCP overhead. So make sure you test on already compressed data (like an MP3 stream). The more compressed the data the less likely it will go through protocol compression en route. -- Ryan On Nov 1, 2010, at 10:48 PM, Antonio Olivares wrote: On Mon, Nov 1, 2010 at 10:42 PM, Gary Kline kl...@thought.org wrote: People, is there a utility to give me the rate of bps that I am _supposed_ to be getting from my telco DSL? tia, gary -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.90a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php An Open Letter to Stephen Hawking http://www.thought.org/#oL ___ 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 Try iperf? http://www.freebsdsoftware.org/benchmarks/iperf.html Used it to test speed on modem connection.

Re: sysinstall(8) bsdlabel a new disk
Devin Teske dte...@vicor.com wrote: sysinstall probes hardware when it starts. Therefore, after making changes (specifically after writing) to the disk in the FDISK partition editor, you need to Ctrl-C and Abort-out and relaunch sysinstall so that it probes the new disk devices (ad4s1, ad4s2, etc.) before you can start adding BSD disklabels (ad4s1a, ad4s1b, etc.) to the slice (aka partition). This has been an age-old problem (hmmm, perhaps get could some mad karma for fixing it). At least in 8.1, there is a sysinstall operation somewhere to re-probe devices, presumably to cover exactly this sort of situation. Does it not work? ___ 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
