Internet d/l sometimes slow on wireless clients

2005-05-18 Thread John Doe
  Hi all,
  First, you can see my network configuration
  here : [1]http://agora.ulaval.ca/~mgcou1/
  I have a FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE server
  In the topic I say "sometimes" slow because
  on some servers, (nvidia.com, apple.ca, etc...)
  Wireless clients can't do more than 200kbps.
  But on some others servers, wireless clients
  do 500 kbps... (ftp.ulaval.ca, winzip.com or
  winrar.de If I can remember correctly)
  Anyway, The problem is that I have 2 networks
  behind the firewall/NAT. Wired and wireless. If a
  wired client ask for a file on a fast server, I can
  do 500kbps... later on the same server with a
  wireless client, I just do 200kbps... If I fetch the
  same file directly from the server, I do 500kbps.
  But as I said earlier, on some servers, everyone
  are doing 500kbps on my clients (Wired/less).
  The bandwidth between the clients and the
  server is not the problem since I have tested
  wireless clients on the FreeBSD's ftp (and I get
  600kbps down and ~550kbps up).
  Could this be fragmentation issues of my wireless
  packets on some routers on the Internet? (I just
  ask since I don't have a clue!)
  My wireless router on the diagram is assigned a
  static ip of 192.168.2.2 and just routes clients
  (192.168.2.[3-254] to the server and vice-versa).
  Its MTU is 1500. No wep enabled.
  I remember that I had the same problem while I
  created an AP directly on the FreeBSD machine
  some time ago...
  Thanks,
  Mike

FreeBSD 5.3 and net.key.preferred_oldsa

2005-02-27 Thread John Doe

Hi,

I am trying to use FreeBSD 5.3_Stable with the KAME implementation of IPSEC 
that comes standard with this version. I however get the message WARNING: 
sysctl net.key.preferred_oldsa does not exist when I put 
net.key.preferred_oldsa=0 in sysctl.

I take it that this new variable has not yet been integrated into this version 
of FreeBSD. Can anyone tell me when this is to be expected, and/or if it is 
already integrated into any previous versions of FreeBSD?

thanks 

Rekkie

ed1: Ethernet address aa:aa:aa:aa:aa?

2004-11-15 Thread John Doe
I just cvsupped "src-all" from 5.1 and built and installed world and GENERIC 
using the tag RELENG_5_3.  I have a Dell Inspiron 7500 (a laptop) with a 
Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PC Card.

With 5.1, I would insert the EtherFast card, and type "dhclient -r ed1" as 
root and everything would work.  Now, when I insert the card, I get the 
following on the console:

ed1:  at port 0x100-0x11f irq 
11 function 0 config 16 pccard1
ed1: [GIANT_LOCKED]
ed1: Ethernet address aa:aa:aa:aa:aa
ed1: if_start running deferred for Giant
type NE1000 (8 bit)

When I now type "dhclient -r ed1", nothing happens for several minutes. and 
then I get the prompt back.  ifconfig reveals an IP address of 0,0,0,0, a 
netmask of 255.255.255.255, and an Ethernet address of aa:aa:aa:aa:aa.  
Something seems wrong, and I don't know what to do next.  Google results 
have not been helpful.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Peter

Hi,
 how can you view process threads on freebsd 4.9? There appears to be no 
option in ps,top or something in /usr/ports.
Thanks,
Joe
