can someone help me out with the vmcore.0 information?
i have a server that just contantly panics and reboots. its a fairly fresh install of 7.0-p4. i have never had a server behave like this and i have no idea really where to start. this is the first line of vmcore.0, is this pertinant? vmcore.0:sys/i386/i386/bios.c: sig '%s' from 0x%0x to 0x%0x offset %d out of BIOS bounds 0x%0x - 0x%0x if anyone can tell me where to begin for troubleshooting errors like this, i would really appreciate the pointers. the ISP has supposedtly already performed a memory check (from within the running OS tho, not a bootable memtest86 disk, which the latter would have been what i preferred...). thanks, Jonathan ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Aloha Matthias,
I am having the same ftp problem on servers that are on an ATM 5 IP
circuit. There is no NAT involved with one of these. The outbound FTP
goes out but I cant get the files to list when I go inbound from
outside on an recognized IP.
SSH on the same box works fine.
It would make my day to get this working.

using restore to recover a freebsd system
ive been practicing using dump and restore. the dumping is easy... i think. my dump command is as such: dump -0uLaf /opt/backups/athena-root-0 / /opt is an NFS mounted share from another server. the dump completed without errors. however, when i restore, i do this: 1) install a new drive in the system 2) boot to livefs cd, use the sysinstaller to fdisk and label the new drive 3) use configure to activate the network interface 4) drop to fixit shell 5) mount my nfs share via its IP (no resolv seems to be working, even if i make a resolv.conf) at this point, i have tried restoring the automatically mounted slices that label made, and i have also tried unmounting everything, and remounting single slices (ie, instead of /mnt, and then usr mounted under /mnt/usr, having them all non-tree-like mounted to /mnt/root /mnt/usr /mnt/var, etc). every time, restore begins by complaining that it expected file , but got file . it goes for a bit, and then dumps. it also complains that file system is full, but i ahve checked and rechecked that i have the right file systems mounted to each mount (ie, not mounting a 500mb temp to where usr needs to be). my restore command was as such: cd /mnt/usr restore /opt/backups/athena-usr-0 root actually does complete, but usr dumps, and bombs out. can anyone give me some pointers for successfully using restore to reload a dump? im trying to nail this process down from a total disaster recovery point of view. thanks, -- Jonathan Horne http://dfwlpiki.dfwlp.org freebsd08 [EMAIL PROTECTED] dfwlp.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

what are some good 'desktop-docked' system info apps (that run well in freebsd), that might be similar in function to grkellm? i saw many screenshots of beautiful apps for superkaramba, but was pretty disappointed that most of them only understand linux devices and fstabs. was wondering what gui apps my peers might be enjoying. cheers, -- Jonathan Horne http://dfwlpiki.dfwlp.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(assuming your jailhost has already build the latest version) and save yourself a ton of time. well, i tried it, and everything seemed to be fine, until i tried starting it with the /etc/rc script. ld-elf.so.1 complains that libssl.so.5 cant be found 2 times, but all my -p8 systems seem to have /usr/lib/libssl.so.4. i also went back and reverified my newver.sh from the sources that were built and installed world from, and it does say 6.2 RELEASE-p8. so how on earth can it even know libssl.so.5 exists, if libssl.so.4 must be the correct version? thanks, -- Jonathan Horne http://dfwlpiki.dfwlp.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

jails in 6.3 and 7.0

what changed recently with browser plugins?
i want to say it was early to mid-october, that standard opera and firefox stopped working (upon upgrade) with the plugins (flash). previously, most flash that i would encounter worked fine in opera, which was my preference since java (such as weathermaps on www.noaa.gov) worked without a hitch as well. now that time has passed, flashplugin has stopped working with standard opera, and now that im woefully using linux-opera, the java stuff doesnt work like i would expect. is there anyway to get my updated system to behave like it used to?

freebsd using sendmail with tls
i know, slightly off topic, but is *on* a freebsd server... right? my smtp is the only remaining part of my email system, that has no encryption options, and i think i would like to add tls (even tho i rarely send smtp mail from outside my lan). my setup is right now, fairly basic (only includes spamassassin, sasl2, and procmail). even tho i dont much about it, i say tls instead of ssl, as i have a few outlook clients, that would surely annoy me 'do you really want to use this certificate', and it would surely be each time i sent a mail. im also assuming that hopefully tls might not do this. before i spend hours and hours googling out my instructions on how to so do, does the tls session operate over the standard port 25, or is this what is referred to as the smtps port? and if so, can the server accept either version over the same port? thanks, -- Jonathan Horne http://dfwlpiki.dfwlp.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Rebuilding kernel/system to a state back-in-time?
Quoting Erik Cederstrand [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Should be tag=RELENG_6_2 ... That should suffice. This assumes you're already running 6.2. As long as you don't switch branches (or choose a date before the branch occurred!), you should be good to go. Erik i would agree with erik's advice, as IMO its quite sound (when it comes to operating a server as opposed to a desktop). however, i would add this detail so that there can be some what and why to go with it: RELENG_6_2 will take you to 6.2-RELEASE-p8. it *will* be back in time, but it will be only 'critical' patches since the intial 6.2-RELEASE. IMO, (and forgive me, i generally dont spew my opinions where they arent welcome or asked for), RELENG_6_2 is better for a server over RELENG_6 (aka, -STABLE), as it doesnt include items that are not critically required for secure and stable operation. remember, that the true -STABLE branch has items merged in from -CURRENT (call it back-ported?). let say, you already know that -p8 is the latest 6.2 revision. you get on a server, you log in, and it says 6.2-RELEASE-p8. you already know that this system is up to date. if you log in, and see 6.2-STABLE... you dont immediately know when this system was last rebuilt without doing some other version checks first. i have to be honest, when it comes to managing a farm full of servers, i like my visual version checks... the same way i like my women: easy. cheers, -- Jonathan Horne DFWLP Network Consulting Services [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.dfwlp.com 214.287.4373 - mobile This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've read lots of comments like,
You should never setup your FreeBSD systems the way Linux or other
*nix's set them up.
You shouldn't ^-^
So, I'm looking for some Wisdom on how best to partition for the usage
I'm planning.
The server's goal state is 4 jails, plus the non-jailed host:
jail-1: DNS services {Bind9 RBLDNSD}
jail-2: WebServer{Apache 22x + PHP5 + Perl 588 + MySQL 50x}
jail-3: mail server {Exim 468 + Spamassassin + ClamAV, etc.}
jail-4: an analysis/monitoring toolkit {Snort, Nagios, Nessus, etc.}
I've got two identical 250 GB SATA2 drives available for this box.
Although I have not yet grokked the whole What's in a jail's dirs?
issue, my initial stab at 'slices' is ~:
drive 2:
/ 2GB
A bit big, but fine
/boot 2GB
Nope, FreeBSD doesn't need / want a /boot
/tmp2GB
Fine
/swap 16GBMachine has 8GB RAM, so swap = 2X RAM
A bit of overkill, but what the hell, you have the space
/usr50GB
What exactly do you plan on running on the host?
/jails 178GB
Fine...
drive 2:
/var100GB
Huh? Refer to /usr above.
/data 100GB MailStore, DBs, www source files, etc.
Fine again...
/home 20GB
Fine again..
I'll betcha some of that's silly or wasteful.
You'd be correct there :)
I'm sure you could fit everything on one disk... Jails are really small,
it's just your data that takes up space. If you could get everything in
250GB (which i think you could easily) RAID 1 might be a nice thing to have

youll do just as fine to hit 'A-S-Q during the partitioning portion, and
taking the defaults. FreeBSD installer will take the best options, and put
all the remaining space as /usr.
i just put my jails under /usr/jails.
keep the host as simple as possible, as building multiple jails will just
multiply your complexity quickly enough.
i would also agree with Frederico... do a RAID1 with your (2) 250GB drives.

Sadly, I need to get an OS that my wife would be more comfortable using and that wouldn't be as time-comsuming to make it more comfortable for her. I downloaded the uberyl live CD and found that ubuntu seems to pick up on everything I have on the laptop (as well as all the attachments), so I'm downloading it now. Because I've put so much time into getting this FreeBSD install where it is now (and because I favor the BSDs), I'm still a bit hesitant... Has anyone here had much experience with ubunu as a desktop? Negatives/positives? Kind of OT, I guess... I'd just rather hear it from someone in this group rather than the inevitable, Oh yeah. You won't be sorry. from the ubuntu folk (salespitches == fingernails on a chalkboard :) ). Thanks, Mike PS. Yes, I've played with PC-BSD. Unfortunately, that's still more work than I have time for. I am one of those sad cases who used FreeBSD for many years as my primary desktop at home, and then switched to Ubuntu about 6 months ago. I still run FreeBSD on an older server, that runs round the clock and is 100% reliable. I was only slightly frustrated by FreeBSD, mainly because of my inability to get a Hauuppage TV card to work, even after a few queries on this list. I also found that other multimedia software seemed more available and easier to set up - I not saying they were impossible, just that I seemed to be spending more time trying to get them to work than I wanted. Ubuntu works very well 'out of the box', and their Synaptic tool for finding and installing software is excellent. I am now running VirtualBox under Ubuntu, and it works extremely well; I can run W2K and XP for occasional use as guests, and what seems like full speed. (Much faster than QEMU, which I used before.) Both KDE and GNOME work fine, and for basic work with Firefox, Thunderbird, OpenOffice and Postgresql, there is nothing much to choose between FreeBSD and Ubuntu from an office user's point of view. Both work great. Both seem rock solid, and recover well from the occasional power outages I get at my new home. (Ought to get a battery backup before disaster hits one day, I suppose). All the development tools are a few mouse-clicks away. I may switch back one day, as I like FreeBSD very much for its sound design and underlying philosophy. I feel 'guilty' about having changed! from my experience as an admin over at openaddict.com, ubuntu really seems to have ascended quickly thru the ranks of the quality distributions. if you take a look at distrowatch.com, ubuntu is also the most highest clicked on distro. based on behavior from what i see from the linux community, it looks like: Oh yeah.
