 I have been having a lot of performance issues with my home wireless, and
 am considering replacing the current APs early next year.  I wanted
 something a little more flexible than the standard consumer AP, without
 spending the money for a high end Cisco AP (I do realize that the hardware
 will run me in the range of their low end APs).  My early searching shows I
 should be able to get an Alix board, Wireless Card, and Antennas for around
 $300.

Not with firefox, but I use www/youtube_dl and multimedia/mplayer.

You can also try graphics/gnash, which can work as a firefox plugin, but

Yeah. It is compiled OK with the `-D' before the switch. But another

And, when I install apache2 and subversion (after sucessful comple),
it prompted a lot of warnings show that some files are not installed

Re: error when trying to install mysql 4.1.12

2005-06-11 Thread Jason Taylor
I'm not sure that command line will work.  If I correctly remember what 
I did, this is what worked for me:


% make -DWITH_LINUXTHREADS -DBUILD_OPTIMIZED -DWITH_OPENSSL clean
% make -DWITH_LINUXTHREADS -DBUILD_OPTIMIZED -DWITH_OPENSSL
% make -DWITH_LINUXTHREADS -DBUILD_OPTIMIZED -DWITH_OPENSSL deinstall
% make -DWITH_LINUXTHREADS -DBUILD_OPTIMIZED -DWITH_OPENSSL reinstall
% make -DWITH_LINUXTHREADS -DBUILD_OPTIMIZED -DWITH_OPENSSL clean

I'm also surprised that we seem to be the only two who have had this 
problem.

all ports are updated via cvsup as of today (10:00 norwegian time).

any ideas? thanks in advance.

I had this same problem also on 4.11 and then discovered that the

Yes, it helped a lot!  Thank you.  It set me down the right path at

All pointers, hints, RTFMs, etc. will be greatly appreciated.

I found an eepro100 card and updated the Intel Boot Agent to version

I tried a 2nd box with the same card and got the same results.
What am I doing wrong?  Are there any BIOS settings I should be

there any other debugging steps I can take?

I found the solution in the last handful of messages in this thread 
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/fa.freebsd.stable/browse_thread/thread/158bf491d67001b2/08bc3c981811414a

The problem was I'd set CPUTYPE=p3 when rebuilding world and the i586s 
I'd been trying for clients did not like that.  It seems obvious in hind 
site.

Everything is working wonderfully with the Intel NIC, but BTX still dies

PXE boot / BTX Halt

2004-12-29 Thread Jason Taylor
I'm trying to set up a few diskless workstations using some old 
hardware.  I've tried four different boxes for clients ranging from a 
P-133 to a P-200.  I did use the same Realtek 8139 based NIC in all 4 
boxes, but I don't think that's the problem.  They all get to the point 
where they grab pxeboot via tftp and then a message like (these are not 
the actual values):

BXT loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01
int=000d   err=   efl=00030246   eip=249a
eax=2025   ebx=0004   ecx=2000   edx=a654
esi=08d5   edi=0006290c   ebp=1516   esp=14e0
cs=f000   ds=ede1   es=ede1   fs=   gs=   ss=ede1
cs:eip=0f 20 dd 81 e5 00 f0 0f-20 c2 0f 01 e0 a8 01 75
   08 80 c2 fe e8 53 ff eb-21 0f 20 e0 a9 30 00 75
ss:esp=0c 29 06 00 d5 08 c0 00-16 15 00 00 00 15 00 00
   04 00 00 00 54 a6 00 00-04 00 00 00 25 a6 00 00
BTX Halted
Three of the four reboot immediately thereafter.  The other one just 
sits there, so I can get the real values if that'd help solve the problem.

I'm using the instructions from 
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2004/09/09/diskless_server.html and 
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2004/09/30/diskless_clients.html except 
I left all the 4th files in /diskless_ro/boot alone and did not create 
my own loader.rc.  I'll revisit that step if I can get past this current 
problem.

Also, I'm using a boot floppy image from http://rom-o-matic.net/5.3.9/
For the server I'm using a Dell OptiPlex G150.  Using another identical 
machine with its built-in NIC and MBA/PXE software, everything works 
(after changing the MAC in dhcpd.conf of course).

I also tried an image from http://rom-o-matic.net/5.2.5/ (no PXE image 
option in this version) and made the dhcpd.conf and /etc/export changes 
to load /diskless_ro/boot/kernel/kernel directly.  The kernel seems to 
load, but then just hangs.  I'm sure this is at least partly due to the 
fact that I didn't compile in device hints.  I haven't gone further down 
this path because I'd really like to go with PXE and pxeboot if possible.

All pointers, hints, RTFMs, etc. will be greatly appreciated.

An external standalone ethernet based ADSL router can be bought for
£30 or so and you will have no interoperability problems with FreeBSD
or any other operating system that supports ethernet.

Even for a single machine setup the ethernet option is usually
superior to USB or an internal card, having no driver problems and a
few additional security benefits.

Robert Fitzpatrick wrote:
Trying to install FreeBSD 5.2.1 on a Compaq Proliant 800, looking for
someone that has done this or similar. Of course, you have to have the
SmartStart CD, I have that, I choose System Erase and it loads the
Compaq partition and the FreeBSD goes without error and when I reboot I
get 'Invalid partition type', that's it. After System Erase, I set the
configuration to Unix (Large Geometry), there are 4 SCSI drives, two
18GB and two 9GB, FreeBSD finds and represents all correctly on install.
Seems the Compaq BIOS is just not letting me use those partitions as
active?
It's been a while since I actually did this and I wasn't bright enough 
to document the process. This is an a Proliant 1500.  I believe I picked 
the SCO UnixWare 7 configuration just because it was the only one with 
Unix in the name.  I think the only significance that choice has is in 
what, if any, wizardy type install option you're given.  Additionally, I 
had to do at least the following two things to get it working.  There 
may have been more.  Again, I foolishly did not document the process.

Set the APIC mode to Full Table - Mapped per the directions at 
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2003-October/021692.html

Set the amount of physical memory in /boot/loader.conf like so: 
hw.physmem=98304k.  Of course, you'll substitute a value that reflects 
the amount of memory your box actually has.  On the first go round 
you'll need to pick the option from the Beastie menu to get to a boot 
prompt and type in: 'set hw.physmem=98304k' and then 'boot' or, to 
play it safer, 'boot -s'.

Hope this helps.  :-)

Re: Redirection with a bridge ?

2004-06-22 Thread Jason Taylor
 What are some of the other approaches (if you dont mind).  I can't
 really do a NAT, I'd really like to stay with a bridge and not do any
 routing.

I'm using a bridging setup (specifically to grab all web traffic and
divert it all to a proxy/policy manager), I had to perform a kernel
patch in order to use fwd on bridged packets.  Try here:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ipfw/2003-September/000526.html

The briding code in OpenBSD is quite good and ipf will let you use a
similar approach out of the box and is a bit more convenient than
patching.

Hope this is helpfull.

Hey,
I know questions like this get asked a lot, but I'm going to be really specific.
I know how to set up failover with a backup MX.  That's not what I'm looking
for.  We have a cyrus-imap server with lots of users connecting via IMAP,
while everything gets backed up, this only happens once a night.  Thus, if the
server were to go up in smoke right before the backup occurred, we'd lose
something like 23 hours worth of emails.
Does anyone have a solution to provide real-time mirroring of IMAP folders?
I don't mind manual intervention to get the thing running again, I just want
to ensure that if an email is received, it's on both machines and can't get
lost.  Is there a way to get real-time replication of cyrus (I'm no cyrus
guru, another fellow set this up)
I'm not tied to Cyrus either, if there's another solution, I'd be happy to
implement it.
I have an idea ... by using Dovecot with PostgreSQL storing the actual mail
folders, with Slony installed to provide real-time replication of the Postgres

Hi,

What is so bad with the floor?
Ever move into a beautiful house only to find the floor *flooded* at the 
first serious cloud break? ;-)

BTW - I'd make sure I'd get/have a decent computer case with a decent 
PSU with enough room for some decent 80mm or larger low noise fans 
rather than opening up the side panel. Perhaps an aluminum (Chieftec 
Dragon, anyone?) case with some Enermax and Zalman coolers and PSU might 
do the trick. I've {b,s}een told a good airflow (front to back) is king.

I saw an article recently by a guy who had a degree in thermal dynamics or
something that was dispelling the common myths about PC cooling.
His conclusion was basically that airflow is king.  You need to move air across
the heat sinks that is cooler than the heat sinks are.  Sounds simple, but the
overall conclusion was that you could improve cooling without increasing noise
by ensuring that air from _outside_ the case was flowing directly over the
processor heatsink.  Reason this works well is becuase the air inside the case
is usually considerably warmer than the air outside the case, and moving warm
air across the heat sink doesn't accomplish much.  By drawing cool air in from
outside the case, things stay cooler.
Anyway, his suggestion was that the best thing you could do for your cooling
rig was to purchase/fab one of those little duct kits that allows the cpu fan
to pull air from outside the case.  Some cases even have the duct built in (my
brother's computer does).
Ok, I'll chime in here.  Here's what everything I ever learned about 
heat transfer and fluid flow tells me:

Everything Bill is saying is correct.  The best way to cool is to move 
as much fluid (air is a fluid for the purpose of this discussion) as 
fast as possible across whatever is hot.  Of course, the fluid has to be 
cooler than whatever is being cooled.  A fan rotating at certain speed 
is going to push a given volume of air in a given amount of time.  By 
leaving the case covers on and providing only a few small holes for 
the air to travel through, you're going to force the air coming through 
those holes to travel through the case faster.

That being said, if the case design, component placement, etc. is such 
that leaving the the cover off actually allows a significantly greater 
volume of air to get to the heatsink(s) in a given amount of time, then 
leaving the cover off is a good thing.

graphics files not printing correctly

2004-05-20 Thread Jason Taylor
I've followed the directions in the handbook for setting up lpd and also 
installed apsfilter via ports and ran /usr/local/share/apsfilter/SETUP. 
 In general printing is working.  For example, a text document from OOo 
prints just fine.  However, when I attempt to print a jpeg file the 
result is what I can best describe as a blurry negative image.  That's 
not terribly accurate.  It's more like it's been converted to only a 
handful of colors and possibly some colors dropped altogether.

I've tried both the native gs driver and the gimp-print stp driver with 
the same results.  Test pages printed from within the apsfilter setup 
look great.  The problem does not seem to be limited to jpegs in 
particular.  A pdf from a few days ago was also blurred/color 
reduced/altered.  Images printed directly from firefox a week or so ago 
show the same symptoms.  Whether those were jpeg, gif, png, or something 
else, I'm not certain.

I've ruled out any network issues by copying a few jpeg files over to 
the server and printing them locally.  I've also converted a few from 
jpeg to ps and back again to rule out imagemagick.

I'm confident that the printer itself is in good order based on the good 
test pages and it having worked well on a WinXP just prior to having 
been moved over the the FreeBSD box.  I no longer have any Windows 
machines around to check that it still works on them.  :-D

Any tips will be much appreciated.

I'm happy to report that the problem is resolved.  I can't really say I 
figured it out.  I didn't do anything differently than yesterday.  I 
looked through the apsfilter SETUP script to see what it does to print a 
test page, replicated it manually, substituting my own jpg converted to 
ps.  That worked!  So I ran through the SETUP script again allowing it 
to overwrite everything that had been there and now it just works.

When I was with VerizonDSL in NW Washington, USA, I just set the outside
interface to normal DHCP.  Most (possibly all) verizon uses PPPoE, I
believe.  My service was lowsy, so it was a pain to figure out (i.e. was I
doing something wrong or was it the service).
HTH

I'm in NW Washington, have VerizonDSL, and it's just a plain ethernet 
connection.  I'm sure whether it's PPPoE or not is a function of 
location, but apparently it's a function of a pretty specific location.

Maybe giving the brand/model would help?

The info on hw.physmem in this thread mostly did the trick for me:

http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=enlr=ie=UTF-8oe=utf-8threadm=ee83fe30.0311120931.5a7f871e%40posting.google.comrnum=1prev=/groups%3Fhl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3Dutf-8%26q%3Dinstall%2Bhangs%2Bat%2B%252Fstand%252Fsysinstall%2Brunning%2Bas%2Binit%2Bon%2Bvty0%26btnG%3DGoogle%2BSearch%26meta%3Dgroup%253Dalt.sys.pc-clone.compaq.servers

Setting hw.physmem was the first part of the puzzle.  However, as was
one of the thread participants, I was getting a fatal trap 12 when I
enabled APIC.  Just so I could tell myself I'd tried everything, I
changed the APIC mode from Full Table Mapped (I had had 4.7 installed
and running properly set that way) to Full Table.  To my surprise, it
worked beautifully!

No, but I think that is about the spot where it would freeze during 
device probing if I didn't set the physical memory size.  I can test to 
find out for sure if it'd help you?

RE: socket: no buffer space available

  I've seen other reports from other uses getting this problem however no
  clear responses on a fix.

I had a similar problem on a (5.1-RELEASE) box with a:

bge0: Broadcom BCM5704C Dual Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x2002 mem
0xfcd2
-0xfcd2,0xfcd3-0xfcd3 irq 5 at device 0.0 on pci2

As well as the no buffer space problem, there were watchguard timeout
measures.

This may not be your problem, but its worth ruling out.

The fix was a kernel src patch for the bge driver.

RE: migrating users

2003-11-28 Thread Jason Taylor

 Why would you want to have the cleartext passwords for all users to be
 able to migrate? What you could do is start 'vipw' as root on the
 original server, save that file to disk under a different name, start
 'vipw' on the new server, and read in the saved file, and save it again.
 
 Next you'd have to make sure the groups are in tact. Either copy it
 (/etc/group), or manually set it to the correct values.
 
 That should do the trick.
 That is, IF your new server is a fresh FBSD install.
 
 Sander.
 
 
 The problem is I need to put the users in a database (virtual mail users).
 So I need to crypt the passwords with the database crypt function.

The postgres (www.postgresql.org) pgcrypto library (in postgres contrib) has
a crypt function that is compatible with des and md5 passwords.

So import your usernames and passwords as described above and customise your
pop3 daemons configuration (or patch it) to use an sql statement like:

select username from virtualusers where username='USERNAME' and (password =
crypt('PLAINTEXTPASSWORD',password));

Postgres is a good choice for these applications (as oppose to mysql), views
come in very handy for produce different calculated fields for each
application.

Hope this helps.

Jason
