Re: failed to create gmirror with the handbook instructions
This is actually trickier than it first looked. First I got into single user mode by supplying 'shutdown now', but the tunefs commands all failed with the following: #tunefs -j disable /dev/ada0s1a Clearing journal flags from inode 4 tunefs: Failed to write journal inode: Operation not permitted tunefs: soft updates journalling cleared but soft updates still set. tunefs: remove .sujournal to reclaim space tunefs: /dev/ada0s1a: failed to write superblock I tried the dump command on the off-chance, and it failed with the original errors. Is there anything you can recommend? I then noticed you specified to boot into single user more, so I restarted the machine, with only ada0 attached. Because the handbook wants me to use the mirror/gm0sX devices, I swapped my fstab file back to the original. The boot loader now only seems to recognise the mirror/gm0 nodes, the original ada0sX are gone (though ada0 still shows up). I'm not sure if it's acceptable to do the dump by booting the 1st hard drive using the mirror/gm0, and then dump to the 2nd hard drive by mounting what will be ada1sX. Is this okay to do?

Re: failed to create gmirror with the handbook instructions
# gpart show ada0s1 gpart: No such geom: ada0s1 By the way, this is after a restart of the machine. There's nothing to back up, I'm installing a fresh os, so I just install on one drive, plug the other in, and start following the handbook instructions for this method. So the only thing in loader.conf is geom_mirror_load=YES. I'll rephrase the question: given that the handbook originally wanted me to dump from ada0s1 to the mounted mirror/gm0s1 (which was ada1 at the time), and I cannot do this, would it be enough to dump from mirror/gm0s1 (which is what ada0 is now mounted as), to ada1s1 (even though this *should* be the other way around, it's equivalent as far as i can see, isn't it?)?

Re: failed to create gmirror with the handbook instructions
I tried creating the mirror before the install. As the drives are now mirrored, the installer picked up on the face that there are two gm0 nodes - one on each hard drive. I installed onto ada0's gm0 node. After it reboots, the bootloader stops at the manual prompt. From what I can see that's not dissapeared up the screen, it tried and failed to mount from mirror/gm0s1a with error 19. I had to mount from ada0s1a in order for the boot to get further, but as it's been installed to boot from gm0s1x, it stops after it mounts /. After having checked my partition setup many times at this point, I know for a fact there's a rather large 500MB section free at the end of my hard drives with this partition set up. Is there any reason I can't just install as normal, do a 'gmirror label gm0 ada0', and then do a 'gmirror insert gm0 ada1', before changing my fstab to use mirror/gm0? I can't see why dumping and restoring is necessary, it's just manually doing what gmirror is there for in the first place. Correct me if I'm wrong :) On 9 October 2013 00:11, Warren Block wbl...@wonkity.com wrote: On Tue, 8 Oct 2013, Andy Zammy wrote: # gpart show ada0s1 gpart: No such geom: ada0s1 By the way, this is after a restart of the machine.

There is not much point in dumping from the mirror to another drive. The dump/restore is how the single drive is copied to the mirror. On a fresh install, use the Shell mode of the installer to set up the mirror, then install directly to it. There are some instructions on mountpoints in the bsdinstall man page. This will avoid the lag of waiting for the second drive to sync. ___ 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

pppoe connection freezes
I have CenturyLink DSL, and I use the user-space ppp program in FreeBSD 9.1 to make the PPPoE connection. From time to time (every few days) the connection freezes up—no more data can be sent or received. No error shows up in ppp.log; all I can see there is that there are no more RecvEchoRequest and SendEchoReply entries after the connection freezes. If I send SIGINT to the ppp program, it reconnects just fine. I talked to CenturyLink's tech support, and they said that one of the times that I had a problem, the connection was dropped on their end, but the others it was fine. My ppp command line is ppp -nat -ddial centurylink My ppp.conf: default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command disable ipv6cp centurylink: set device PPPoE:rl0 enable lqr set authname balholmand...@qwest.net set authkey set dial set login add default HISADDR Is there a setting I can add to ppp.conf to make it detect when the connection freezes?

Help to secure my FreeBSD/Apache installation
Hi everybody! I'm running a server on FreeBSD 8.1 STABLE (apache 2.2.16, mysql 5.1.50, php 5.3.3) and I server some websites from it, most of them using Joomla or Wordpress CMS. I recently had a security breach where someone used a hole in an older Joomla version and was able to install a php script called webadmin.php. From that the person was able to browse all folders and view all files - and change them... not nice! Apache runs using the www user (std installation) and all virtualhosts share the same user, but are placed in different directories. I need some help and pointers to what I can do to strengthen security and to atleast prevent someone from writing to the filesystem and browse all directories and files. (allthough joomla needs some folders to be chmod 777) I'm thinking about installing apache2-mpm-itk or similare to jail each site into its own directory and run each virtualhost as its own user. Is this a good idea? Thankful for answers and pointers!

Re: /tmp filesystem full
Hi everybody! Thanks for answering my questions and helping me out with this problem. It's been fixed now and I managed to locate the problem with the find / -type d | awk 'length 900' command. What caused it was something that looked like a directory loop or at least a very deep list of sub directories from two old backups of src + kernel compilations that recently got moved to this server from another one (accidentally and in a hurry due to disk failure on the other server). I think I counted 12 full lines in my terminal window for the directory bash path... I deleted them and now it works great again. Thanks again for great help!

Help! Drive failing in zpool
I have a drive failing and it's a member of a zpool. Since I don't deal with these things every day I thought I ask for some help... :-) I've already ordered a new drive which will arrive shortly, but I was wondering if someone could guide me through the process of taking out a drive of the pool and replacing it with a new one and keep all the data intact? Ie. - put drive in offline mode - remove drive - insert new drive - whatever needs to set it up - add it to the zpool run Btw, rebooting this server is not a problem if needed.

Dynamic Window Manager install with patch(es)
Hi all, First time poster to the lists! Using dwm, loving the minimalism and it's forcing me to learn stuff the hard way which is all good. But I can't seem to figure out how to apply a patch to it. According to the instructions listed here: http://dwm.suckless.org/patches/ I figured I'm to use the tarball method as that's how ports fetches dwm. I tried applying the method to /usr/ports/x11-wm/dwm/work/dwm-5.9 but it didn't work (malformed patch). I've used ubuntu for about a year but for all intents and purposes I'm still a beginner with UNIX-like, and I've never used patch or diff before. But, I remembered that these are ports and wonder if these patches would work on FreeBSD source? Would I have to apply the patch to the tarball while it's in distfiles before it gets 'ported' to freebsd? Or am I talking crazy? Any help would be appreciated. andy ___ 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

Urgent: Under attack - need tcpdrop help

The commands will work on 6.x and later versions of the OS, since it doesn't use tcpdrop -l -a. If you like the output and want to actually run the tcpdrop commands, add | sh to the end of the pipeline. YMMV, because I didn't actually execute the commands. I just printed the tcpdrop commands, and they looked good.

Timing out SAMBA authentication
Hi. I am connecting to a Samba server from a mac running OSX 10.6.6 on my LAN and up until about a month ago it has been running smoothly. The sever is appearing in Finder but when connecting I get asked my username and password. After entering my details I get Connecting for about 5-10 seconds before the shares are presented, then I am able to mount and work with the shares. Interestingly if I don't mot the share quickly the mac reports the share is no longer available? This evening I have been doing some diagnosis to see whats happening, I opened a terminal session on the samba server and to connect to the share using; smbclient localhost\\[share] I get asked the password, after 20 seconds the connection fails with the error: Receiving SMB: Server stopped responding session setup failed: Call timed out: server did not respond after 2 milliseconds I'm assuming this is why there is a delay in mounting the share though my Mac. Im pretty sure I haven't changed anything. I have googled the web and the only constructive thing I have come across so far is the encrypt password entry in smb.conf. I tried this but made no difference. smb.conf: [global] netbios name=Leopard workgroup=WORKGROUP security = user load printers = no log file = /var/log/samba.log max logsize = 50 time server = yes read raw = yes write raw = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY wins support = yes local master = yes domain master = yes os level = 65 [homes] read only=no guest ok=no browsable=no [share] path=/usr/home/share read only=no guest ok=no force group = share security mask = 0660 force security mode = 660 directory security mask = 0770 force directory security mode = 0770 Any advise would be appreciated especially if someone has resolved this.

Re: FreeBSD and large harddrives
Thanks a lot to all who responded to my post. I have learned lots here. Too bad I have to find another use for my 4 x 2TB green WDC drives I have laying around. Anyways - they'll probably end up as a temp/work drive on a few Windows stations. Btw. will these drive work better in a ZFS pool/tank (not connected to a raid card)? I have noticed on my FreeNAS server that you can group several drives together into one large ZFS drive. So my conclusion is so far: I'm going to go for the 64bit version of FreeBSD and use ZFS (mainly due to error correction), but perhaps UFS for the OS. I will use a Raid controller (probably the RocketRaid 2640x1 which I have here, but may also consider getting a new 3ware card with battery backup), get the largest Raid Edition drives (need to order them) and use a separate Raid 1 for the OS (or worst case simply a SATA connector on the motherboard and backup this often) and a Raid 5 for the file storage area. Again - thanks a lot for all your help! Very appreciated!

FreeBSD and large harddrives
Hi, I'm going to build a server that's intended to store uncompressed videofiles (where 1 hour film equals about 500GB). I plan on using Western Digital 2TB or 3TB SATA harddrives. Total storage in version 1 of this server will probably be 8-12 TB. Harddrive speed is not so important so a 5400rpm drive would be OK. Seems like the green line of WD harddrives use both 5400rpm and 7200rpm. I will use RAID 5. The processor will be a 64bit capable Intel processor and I plan on using a Highpoint Rocketraid or 3ware Raid controller. So now my questions: 1. Which FreeBSD version should I install? (it must support large drives). I'm currently using the standard FreeBSD 8.1 (STABLE) on several servers, but this is a 32bit version, right? I suppose I need a 64bit version when I use large harddrives? 2. I know that the 3ware Raid controller supports larger drives than 2TB (or was it 1TB?). The Highpoint controller I'm not so sure of, but I've had good experience with these on a few Windows servers and on one FreeBSD server. My setup would be to use the entire disk for both operating system and filestorage (in version 1). How can I create this huge partition/slice? I don't think the installer (atleast on the standard FreeBSD version) supports these large drives? Thanks for your help. I might have follow-up questions as my project make progress.

I suppose I need a 64bit version when I use large harddrives? Freebsd has been 64 bit for a long time. It supports multiple architectures. You want amd64 (yes, even on an intel 64bit) Thanks! I didn't know I could use amd64 on Intel servers. Then my next questions will be: How about the ports collection - does the 64bit version have most of the ports? I need ffmpeg, php, apache, mysql, imagemagick, ghostscript, exiftools and a few more small ones. 2. I know that the 3ware Raid controller supports larger drives than 2TB (or was it 1TB?).

Undefined symbol php_pcre_exec
Hi FreeBSD-Questions-readers, This question is not exactly FreeBSD, but since I'm running FreeBSD 8.0 RELEASE on this server I was hoping this community would be able to give me some help. I'm trying to install the latest version (3.8.2144) of ResourceSpace ( http://www.resourcespace.org/ - open source digital assets management) on a FreeBSD 8.0 server running the latetst version of Apache 2.2.16, PHP5.3.3 and mysql 5.1.45. On the first installation html page (/pages/setup.php) I fill inn all the fields (database user, name, host and path to binaries etc) and click Begin installation. This is as far as I get. In Firefox I get a download window asking me to save or open setup.php, in Safari I get an error message and in IE I get IE cannot display this page error. So I begin to dig... Tried several databases/user/passwords, with or without paths to binaries, but still the same problem. So I check my http error log and I notice that every time I click Begin installation I get a line with this in my logfile: My http error log shows this line every time I click Begin installation: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/php/20090626/filter.so: Undefined symbol php_pcre_exec So I thought maybe my PHP installation is broken or I have missed some modules. Tried reinstalling (with make rmconfig first), I even installed all modules and did the same with Apache - several times. Problem still there. So I start search for an answer and a Google search comes up with a reference to /usr/ports/UPDATING where it says something like php_pcre is from version 5.x now a part of the php core and can't be installed alone as an additional package to PHP. Could this have anything to do with my problems? I'm running out of ideas here and I was hoping someone could help me out or give me some pointers.. Thanks a lot!

I've tried label and fdisk, but I can't get it to work. [snip] I do not believe you can utilize fdisk and label for this. Since it appears there may be a possibility of a garbage MBR present this will wipe it: Boot a LiveFS CD, then at a root prompt do: sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16 and: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/adx oseek=1 bs=512 count=1 where x equals your drive number. This will zero out any old MBR. You will need to set this up with gpart instead of fdisk. More details in man gpart and possibly glabel. The devil is in the details, but this may be enough to get you pointed down the road. I couldn't get it to work. My solution was to remove the 1TB drive and install 2x500GB drives in a small RAID instead. Made life so much easier. :-) Cheers, Andy ___ 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: Trouble enabling GD in php/apache
[snip] I had to install a new server and was surprised the extensions never loaded. However I knew from other installations that for example the gd extension should be in extensions.ini - I looked in there and it was absent. So what I had to do is to search for it. Before I did that, I had to run locate.updatedb as root. This showed gd.so to be in /usr/local/ports/graphics/php5-gd/work/php-5.3.3/ext/gd/modules/gd.so I copied that into /usr/local/lib/php/20090626/ and edited /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini with a line of extension=gd.so I had to do this with everything selected in php5-extensions, and then restart the webserver. Hi John, thanks for your input. In my case both extension.ini (gd.so line) and gd.so in the /usr/local/lib/php/20090626 are present.

Problem adding 1TB SATA disk to system
Hi all, I'm running FreeBSD 8.0 release (will upgrade to 8.1 STABLE tonight). However, I'm having big problems adding a new harddrive to the system.

Re: Lingua franca file system Linux-NetBSD-FreeBSD?
2010/8/25 Thomas Mueller mueller6...@bellsouth.net: From Andy Ruhl acr...@gmail.com: I thought UDF was supposed to be the solution to all of this. A friend of mine had a USB external hard disk formatted with UDF and it worked fine with both Linux and Windows. I think it's not as common for formatting magnetic disk based filesystems as it probably should be though. It's mostly used for DVDs. I've heard of UDF, recognized it as a file system for DVDs, can't find it specifically on my system but find two DVD-related packages. /var/log/packages/dvd+rw-tools-7.1-i486-1 /var/log/packages/libdvdread-4.1.3-i486-1 $ uname NetBSD $ which newfs_udf /sbin/newfs_udf http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UDF_File_System It appears that NetBSD, Mac OSX, Linux (later 2.6) and Windows (later versions) support it the best. FreeBSD and OpenBSD, AIX and Solaris claim some level of support for it as well. Unless you're using FAT32 or a network CIFS, it appears to be the best supported filesystem to me, given that you are using the proper version of UDF. I'm guessing a Windows partition layout would be most compatible as well on a magnetic disk. Also note that UDF claims to be able to write and rewrite files directly to RW optical media. I've never used it much in practice though.

In fact, not being influenced by that tradition would take a conscious effort. So I find that far more likely than an obscure common source. Note that I am not attributing the resemblance to any fiendish motives. I expect the artist just found the pun too good to pass up. I'll CC him in case he wants to comment on his sources, since you think he should be asked.

Maybe he has cloven hooves inside those tennis shoes; I don't know. But Pan could certainly have had some influence on how the Devil was traditionally drawn. My point wasn't that there is no earlier source that traditional depictions of the Devil draw on. They aren't based on anything in the Bible, so it seems quite likely that there is. I was just saying that the BSD daemon is not derived from that ancient source _independently_; its immediate source is almost certainly the traditional depictions of demons.

Re: 'file' Command Giving False Positives
One thing I noticed about the file command's output might be useful: For the file in question, it says MS-DOS executable (built-in) For real Windows programs, it gives more information. One that I tried said PE32 executable for MS Windows (GUI) Intel 80386 32-bit. I remember that some others have said COFF instead of PE32. So maybe you could just assume that unless the file command is able to figure out what _kind_ of executable the file is, it's a false positive. It depends how likely you are to run into a really ancient DOS program (which would probably just get the generic description).___ 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
X not responding
I am having a problem with Xorg under FreeBSD 8.0 RELEASE and 8.1 RC1: When I type startx, the X server starts, and some xterm windows open, but it will not respond to keyboard or mouse input. The mouse pointer won't move, and the only keyboard input that does anything is CTRL-ALT-F1 etc. to switch virtual terminals. If I install FreeBSD 7.1, which installs Xorg straight from the installation CD, it works fine. Under version 8, I've tried installing from ports and packages, and I get this problem. When I first had this problem, I was running it under VirtualBox, so I thought maybe it was because VirtualBox's FreeBSD support is incomplete. But now I've tried it on real PC hardware, and I have the same problem. Obviously some people must be running X under FreeBSD 8, so I must be doing something wrong in my installation or configuration, but I can't guess what it is.

UPGRADE TO RELEASE 8.0-P3/SAMBA HELP REQUIRED

OK I try sysinstall and find SAMBA isn't marked as installed. I select samba for install but when installing SAMBA get a error code -1 (WTF is that all about REALLY USEFUL error message mate!) Looked on google and keeps referring to PORTS being installed. Tried the examples of how to install SAMBA but get loads of failed command line instructions - Doesn't say anything about installing PORTS during initial installation. So I guess you can say I don't have Ports installed - why isn't this done automatically if its absolutely so critical for the OS to function right? Error messages that mean nothing to the every day user. Apparently I am meant to have something called PORTS installed before I've even setup the server.

Basically, it should be possible if you install the sources of 7.2 (e. g. from the CD) to overwrite /usr/src. Then you basically do what the Handbook says about upgrading from source, or, to quote from /usr/src/Makefile (worth reading its beginning): # 1. `cd /usr/src' (or to the directory containing your source tree). # 2. `make buildworld' # 3. `make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC). # 4. `make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC). # [steps 3. 4. can be combined by using the kernel target] # 5. `reboot'(in single user mode: boot -s from the loader prompt). # 6. `mergemaster -p' # 7. `make installworld' # 8. `make delete-old' # 9. `mergemaster' (you may wish to use -U or -ai). # 10. `reboot' # 11. `make delete-old-libs' (in case no 3rd party program uses them anymore) This should then give you the 7.2 version of FreeBSD back - removing everything that freebsd-update might have updated. I am not sure if you can use freebsd-update for this task (but I don't see why it should not be possible); in this case, refer to man freebsd-update, especially the -r parameter (new release). Maybe a third possibility is to install FreeBSD 7.2 from the CD (I just assume you installed from CD or have the CD there), without any formatting, just overwriting. But this may be problematic - MAY, I'm not sure. Sorry, I'm really lacking experience in downgrading a system, as I have never done this, so I sadly can't be more specific.

Re: [#24536008] Re: UPGRADE TO RELEASE 8.0-P3/SAMBA HELP REQUIRED
Ah seems like FTP as well as Samba is blocked after the upgrade I have ran FreeBSD 7 to 7.2 using the freebsd upgrade process painless in the past, however.. Have followed the instructions for upgrade 7.2 to 8.0-P3 from the FreeBSD website. As I am not a FreeBSD guru all I can say is the update process is NOT a smooth process as per EVERY OTHER O/S in the open source market. I appreciate the support you have given but whatever you suggest just doesn't work. I am very angered being lead in to believing freebsd-update will be the able to update your OS - this isn't the case. Does FreeBSD want to be a fanatics only OS? No other OS's seems to have no such problems updating. I have even offered access to my server to sort out the problem but no one has offered. I just get cut/copy emails in reply that doesn't work. After 5 years of painless usage perhaps I ought to look at another better support OS?

Why doesn't this startup script run?
I'm working on integrating p0f with amavisd-new, and the command I need to run at startup is a little unwieldy: p0f -l 'tcp dst port 25' 21 | /usr/local/bin/p0f-analyzer.pl 2345 At first, I tried putting that in /etc/rc.local. No luck, don't know why it doesn't run. Ok, I tell myself, rc.local is a dinosaur anyway, take a second and make a simple rc.d script.

Re: Hardware RAID controller questions - 3Ware vs RocketRaid
Thanks for all your feedback. The problem occurs in the RAID controller BIOS (before we even boot or get to the OS install). Thanks to John for confirming these cards do work above 2TB. I will look into upgrading the firmware (on these brand new cards). Perhaps it's just the current firmware that can't handle 2TB harddrives x 3 in RAID.

Hardware RAID controller questions - 3Ware vs RocketRaid
Hi, We're setting up two backup servers where each server will have about 4TB of harddrives (for now) connected (4x1TB and 8x500GB drives). Last night we ran into trouble with the 3ware controllers we have (9650SE-8LPML) because we couldn't create a larger RAID5 than 1.99TB. We are going to use FreeBSD 8.0 and Bacula, but first we obviously need to create a working RAID. My questions are: - Are HighPoint RocketRaid controllers a good alternative to 3ware controllers? Are RocketRaid controllers true hardware RAID? - What should we look for in a RAID controller spec to see that it has support for larger than 2TB RAIDs? I've been looking at these: http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA_new/series_rr2300.htm http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA_new/series_rr3500.htm Any FreeBSD recommendations? Or perhaps for another 3ware controller? We're using SATAII drives. Thanks for your help!

Extreme filesystem performance decrese going from FreeBSD4 to FreeBSD7
A customer of a customer needed to expand the size of the filesystem on a webserver they run, and since it was still running 4.11, they decided to go ahead and upgrade to 7.1. Unfortunately, they have seen the performance decrease significantly. Now, under 7.1, numerous perl processes will queue up (from their web applications), the load average will be in the 40s to 90s, and according to top they perl scripts are commonly in the ufs state, which I assume means stuck waiting for read or write responses. I have also experienced pretty abysmal read performance from the array, using dd...we're talking sub 1MBps. So, my assumption is that something is wrong on the filesystem layer. When I look at the CPU utilization in top, I see that 80-90% is constantly used by system. However, when I look at iostat, I see very low numbers for the raid, in fact across the board. It's a Dell server with a Perc4/Di RAID controller, which uses the amr driver. They upgraded to larger, 15k rpm ultra 320 disks (from smaller 15k rpm ultra 320 disks). They made a backup of their web root, which is a seperate partition, using dump to a temporary drive, then swapped in the new disks, installed FreeBSD 7.1, and restored their webroot to a partition on the new array. Does anybody have any insight into what could be going on here? dmesg is below. Thanks! Andy Copyright (c) 1992-2009 The FreeBSD Project.

Re: freebsd-update on FreeBSD 6.x
Quoting Manolis Kiagias son...@otenet.gr: A quick visit to http://update.freebsd.org does not show this directory - although this maybe intentional. I suggest you try the server change and if you connect but still fail to get the key, then go on and hack the script. I don't have a 6.1 machine around, but freebsd-update is just a sh script and you should be able to find what's going on. There is nothing hardcoded in it, at least in the version distributed with 7.x. In fact I would try running the 7.x version on this system. Hi Manolis, thanks for the reply! I have simply copied over the freebsd-update script from a 7.0 machine and it seems to work fine just as on the 7.0 machine. I have run a fetch without making any changes to the conf file, I haven't applied the updates as yet as its a production server and I'll need to schedule down time and work out a fall back plan if anything goes bad when doing an install.

For one thing the directory its looking in for the pub.key seems to be hardcoded as /i386/6.1/ or at least that path is not present in my conf file, perhaps its possible to add an additional line to the conf file to modify this...

Umask and Samba
Hi there. Having problems with create mask in samba since changing my umask in /etc/login.conf to 007. I have created a share folder in /usr/homes with mod 770. Accessing and writing/creating files/directories via ftp is as expected (-rw-rw) but when copying a file via samba I get a real mix of permissions, after many hours of playing with the create mask value in smb.conf I get typically: -rw-r--r-- -rw-r-rw-- etc Ideally I would like to create mask to be set to generate -rw-rw. Is there a way of working what the value should be? Find below a copy of my share section of smb.conf; [share] path=/usr/home/share read only=no guest ok=no create mask=0330 Thanks in advance. ___ 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: PATH used by www user
Hi Frank, thanks for your responce, the PATH isn't set within the perl script with ENV (and the script is identical on both systems). I've already asked the question on the perl mailing list and came to the conclusion the difference was something at the UNIX level on FreeBSD. There are various ways I can easily work around it, but it just seemed so basic I wanted to know how it was being set :S thanks, Andy. Quoting Frank Shute fr...@shute.org.uk: User www doesn't have a shell, profile hence PATH. I don't know how your path is being set but it depends on perl how your script looks. Look at Env(3) the other perldocs. If you want to do it quick, call traceroute with the path in your scripts e.g: system /usr/sbin/traceroute $some_host; There's probably a perl module with a traceroute in it but I'm afraid I don't know it offhand.

Re: PATH used by www user
Hi Frank, thanks a lot for looking into it. Yes one server is an older FreeBSD 6.1, the other 7.0 so they certainly aren't identical servers. But they do have same version of apache (2.2.9) and same version of the perl script, and as far as I can tell same config for default PATH etc. I had a look and there doesnt appear to be anything setting the path in the apache conifg, perhaps it could be a compiled in default path?! I'll ask the apache experts and see if they can help, thanks again, Andy. Quoting Frank Shute fr...@shute.org.uk: Hi Andy, I had to look at the Camel book although it isn't explicit, it seems like the script inherits the environment of the calling process i.e Apache in this case. Apache sets the environment with SetEnv (or at least 1.3 does, I don't run 2*) as it can't inherit one from user www since it doesn't have one. So have you had a look at httpd.conf and .htaccess on each machine? BTW, one machine uses an old PATH with /usr/X11R6/bin in it. That disappeared some time ago. That may or may not be a clue. In short, I think this is probably an Apache question you might have more informative answers from there. Sorry I can't be more helpful but quite a few Apache people run FreeBSD and they're likely to be more help than I am.

PATH used by www user
Hi, I'm trying to work out why the PATH is different for the www user on two different FreeBSD servers. The problem being that on one it cant find the traceroute binary (via a perl script hosted on apache 2.2). The www user on both is the FreeBSD default, so has no home directory on either. The /etc/profile is the same on both servers, also the login.conf have the same path value set and there are no /etc/bash files. But still on one server the path is /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin and on the other only /bin:/usr/bin. Can someone tell me where the path may be being set that I havent looked? thanks, Andy.

Do you have more than one slice on the disk - that which MS refers to as a 'primary partition'? Something you might do to create a 'dual boot' machine. Are you in the position where you can just wipe it and do a reinstall? I wouldn't just move or resize the c partition after the fact. The c partition should be equal to the size of the slice it is in. That should just be true after the fdisk part of the operation unless there is something wrong with the size or alignment of the slice itself. And, in that case, I would expect it to have complained way back in the sysinstall-fdisk part of the process. So, I would start over if I could. Just some pictorial perspective to make it easier (I hope) to visualize. Whole device | slice 1 : FreeBSD Slice 2 : slice 3 : Slice 4 | | : : : | | :- partition c -: : | |Some MS thing : ' ' ' ' : Some Linux : Extra | | :pa' pb ' pd ' pe ' pn: thing : slice | | : ' ' ' ' : : | | : ' ' ' ' : : | - A device (whole disk) can have up to 4 slices labeled 1..4. Each slice can be of different types. MS calls slices 'primary partitions'. Each FreeBSD type slice can be divided in to 8 (really 7) partitions that are labeled a..h. But, c must be used to define the whole slice. Slices are created by fdisk. Fdisk also writes the device's MBR. Partitions are created by bsdlabel (disk label in early versions of FreeBSD) bsdlabel also writes the slice's boot block. It is possible to leave empty space in the whole disk that is not allocated to any slice or within any given slice that is not allocated to any partition. The total of a..h not counting c, plus any non- allocated space, must add up to c. It is possible to create what someone has dubbed a 'dangerously dedicated' disk and just not create slices, but just use bsdlabel to divide the whole disk in to FreeBSD partitions a-h. The c partition must still refer to the whole space available for FreeBSD partitioning. I think it is also possible to just newfs the disk without using either fdisk or bsdlabel and create one filesystem without slices or partitions. I haven't tried it. Both fdisk and bsdlabel are supposed to keep track of the sizes correctly, automatically. That is why I suggest starting over. If you use sysinstall, it calls fdisk and bsdlabel for you and you don't have to do it separately unless you want to look and see what it did. jerry thanks Andy. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list [2]http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message sent using UK Grid Webmail 2.7.9 References 1. mailto:freebsd-questions@freebsd.org 2. http

[ask] adding new processor
I would like to add a new processor on my FreeBSD 7-RELEASE. Now it's 1 x Intel Xeon E5410, and I would like to add another 1 x Intel Xeon E5410, so there will be 2 x Intel Xeon E5410 (8-Core Total) Do I need to recompile the kernel and/or daemons inside (ex: Apache, PHP, MySQL, EXIM, etc...) ? Or the operating system (including it's daemons) will reflect to work with both processors once the system booted ? Thank you for your kind help, and I hope to hear a good response from you soon. -- Best Regards, Andy Chandra IndoForum GMod Team [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.indoforum.org Indonesian Online Community ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

However, the specific problem you mention should have been resolved by this change here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/126410 ...so please double-check that your ports tree has been updated to get this fix. Regards, I did recently upgrade my base system from 6.3-STABLE to 7.0-STABLE, however, i just re-ran a csup and ran portupgrade an tried a re-build of KDE4 with the same error output. You need to clean out the 6.3 versions of various libs/binaries.

When I try to send mail as root, it simply does not send. I have a very basic, updated FreeBSD 7.0 installation. Mail has not worked since I installed 7.0 about 42 days ago. I am able to ping internet addresses as well as well as resolve domain names. At the very least, can someone point me in the correct direction to start debugging this? I have read relevant sections in the FreeBSD handbook as well as sendmail manpages, etc. Thanks in advance for any help! -Andy ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
