soaccept
I'm about to use a char device for a kind of distributed processing,
so I've coded the open function as follows. The problem is that
soaccept returns 0 without populating the raddr. I've checked netstat,
everything seems to be fine, the socket is created, bound and the
state is LISTENING. Even the remote is connection is ESTABLISHED. But,
it cannot receive anything.
int
open(struct cdev *dev, int flag, int otyp, struct thread *td)
{
uprintf(in open...\n);
int error = -1;
socktd = td;
error = socreate(AF_INET, sock, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP,
td-td_proc-p_ucred, socktd);
if(error != 0)
return error;
sockaddr.sin_len = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in);
sockaddr.sin_family = AF_INET;
sockaddr.sin_port = htons(1234);
sockaddr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
error = sobind(sock, (struct sockaddr *)sockaddr, socktd);
uprintf(sobind error = %d\n, error);
error = solisten(sock, 5, socktd);
uprintf(solisten error = %d\n, error);
error = soaccept(sock, (struct sockaddr **)raddr);
uprintf(soaccept error = %d, ip=%s\n, error,
inet_ntoa(raddr-sin_addr));
uprintf(out open...\n);
return(error);
}
int
read(struct cdev *dev, struct uio *uio, int ioflag)
{
int error = 0;
error = soreceive(sock, (struct sockaddr **)raddr, uio, NULL, NULL,
NULL);
return(error);
}

I was expecting to find for example, the rtprio value to be in actual time units, question: is there a correlation to the number and a concrete RT value say cpu cycles or so? Is there a way to calculate the the minimum expected timeslice or the maximum time to re-schedule. For example, in PLC design you usually have to guarantee that you will evaluate a certain number of ladder instruction in a maximum amount of time, say 1000 ladder instructions in a worst case of 100ms. So the question is if this is rt scheduling then there must be a correlation with rt units.

E-Mail scaling question
Hello All, My company needs a [new] e-mail solution for a product rollout. Rather than have a few e-mail domains with lots of addresses, the solution we need is for a very few (mostly one, very rarely more than 3) accounts on upwards of tens of thousands of domains. I can't find any info on scaling sendmail or postfix to this many domains. If anyone has any info, knowledge, horror stories, etc. It would be greatly appreciated Also, I am assuming that to play nice, we need a dedicated IP per domain, so I may have to survive setting that up before I even get to the e-mail. If anyone knows of a legitimate way to set up an e-mail domain on a shared IP and not have half of the e-mail servers assume we are spammers, let me know.

I don't see much value in setting up tens of thousands of what sound like vanity domains, but you'll need postmaster@ working at each of these domains to be even minimally compliant with RFC-822/2822/etc, and most people expect abuse@ to work also. I can't find any info on scaling sendmail or postfix to this many domains. If anyone has any info, knowledge, horror stories, etc. It would be greatly appreciated You'll want to use hash table map type for sendmail's virtusertable or Postfix's virtual table-- see /usr/share/sendmail/cf/README or /usr/local/share/doc/postfix/VIRTUAL_README. Also, I am assuming that to play nice, we need a dedicated IP per domain, so I may have to survive setting that up before I even get to the e-mail. If anyone knows of a legitimate way to set up an e-mail domain on a shared IP and not have half of the e-mail servers assume we are spammers, let me know. There's nothing unusual about having one IP serve as the MX for many domains. After all, many hosting companies provided a shared email solution. What matters most to spam checking is the mail contents, whether forward and reverse DNS match, whether postmaster@ and abuse@ works, and whether bounces, address verification, etc are handled properly.

You don't. rc.conf uses bourne shell syntax. The entries are all variable initializations. jail_forest-friend_rootdir is illegal as a variable name -- you can't have a '-' character in there. I suggest you /call/ your jail forest_friend and use that form in everything that appears on the LHS of an assignment in rc.conf. Of course, there's no problem with using the form 'forest-friend' on the RHS of any assignments, so long as it's properly quoted, of course.

Install problem with 8.0 Release
Hi list, I am trying to help a friend who is overseas install FreeBSD 8.0 i386. Left to his own devices the install failed, so I ran through it with him last night, all is fine till it gets to the root password screen where the install just hangs. He is not very techy, all I could glean was the system has an sis chipset and it previously ran windows 7 with no problems, I am hoping to get a more detailed spec of the machine, but I thought might make an initial enquiry to the list to see if anyone has come across this behaviour before, or are there any obvious possible causes ?

I'm not aware of anything that would cause those specific symptoms, but FreeBSD 8.0 is no longer supported. You should be using 8.1 and 8.2 is coming soon. Another possibility would be to use the PCBSD installer to install either PCBSD or a plain FreeBSD install. The newer PCBSD installer supports installing either version. -- 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

Hard to say without more details as to why its hanging, but I would not bother with 8.0 as its quite old. Instead, try ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/8.2/FreeBSD-8.2-BETA1-i386-disc1.iso There is wider hardware support and many, many bug fixes. ---Mike ___ 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

Re: HP XW6400 install failure
Quoting Per olof Ljungmark p...@intersonic.se: Hi, The machine restarts during DVD/Memstick boot, possibly when is trying to identify the HD. If I take out the LSI 3041E SAS controller and replace it with another SCSI controller or the motherboard SATA all is fine, installing other OS's with the 3041 is also fine. Tried various FBSD incarnmations from CD's lying around but none worked. Tried several machines as well, got four of them so this should exclude hw failure. Anyone with similar experiences? The controller uses the mpt driver. I'm right now burning a 9-current DVD to see what it says... Answering myself here, I guess this controller is not supported with mpe(4), I just thought it was... if someone thinks otherwise just let me know! ___ 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
