nsmbrc documentation

2003-10-22 Thread Matthew Bettinger
Hello,

Can someone shed some light on how to use .nsmbrc to automount
windows shares for a regular user?  

Apparantly there is supposed to be a man (5) page but I can't find
it.  I do see the example in /usr/local/share/examples/smbfs.

Anyway, is it possible to have a normal user mount the windows
shares in their ~/.nsmbrc file without having root access or am I
going to have to use sudo without authentication for the mount_smbfs
command?

Also, is there a way to test a global nsmb.conf file without
rebooting the server?

My last questions is: Where do I put the global file?
/usr/local/etc or /etc ?  I'm pretty sure I saw something in a bugs
list where  it was supposed to be put in /etc and not
/usr/local/etc.  Since I don't know of a way to test my
global file short of a reboot I really can't verify this.  

Thanks!

 One quick question, though - how much RAM should I install in this

65 is plenty!!

 We are looking for a dell box to run a small (MySQL) database on and

 Yes and it works VERY well with FreeBSD.
 It handles PostScript files directly.  No GhostScript needed.

I print to 1200's 4si's 5si's from bsd.  The 4si's and 5si's are probably THE 
most durable printer that I have ever seen.  They are rather big and heavy 
but they can push alot of paper.   

Make sure to inquire about the last time the fuser had been replaced before 
you purchase one.  You can purchase maint. kits for around 150 bux.  That 
cheap printer might end up costing you another 150 bux if you aren't careful. 
Fusers get scratched or go bad but it's nice to at least have a general idea 
when the next replacement is due.

adaptec 2400A revisited.

2002-12-23 Thread Matthew Bettinger
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello,

Reinstalled FreeBSD on an ASUS K7V 133 with 6 60 gig drives and an adaptec 
2400A raid card.  This has got to bethe pickiest bios I have ever come 
across.  Anyway I have the card doing raid 5 and the device is showing up and 
it's appearing as 175+ gigs under it's own mount point. 

Everything appeared to be ok until I put it under some very heavy loads.
The machine has 768 megs of ram 1024 megs of swap and GENERIC kernel.

BSD is on it's own disk and I proceeded to build world  while cp'ing  some 
very large directories to the raided disks.  On top of that I threw in a few 
large untar and gunzips on the raided drives . 

After a while the machine locked up.  

Where should I look to try to hunt down the problem of the machine locking up 
nder heavy loads?  Are there any log files created that would lead me to 
believe it ran out of memory?  Right now I can't do much with the machine 
until I know exactly why it locked up.  

Thank you in advance.

 Hmmm... That's not necessarily a problem with the raid card as such.
 The 'root' that the system is trying to mount at that point is the
 filesystem on the CDRom drive.  Do you see any mention of your CD
 drive in the boot messages?  Nb. the fact that the BIOS can see the CD
 well enough for it to boot the kernel from it in no way precludes
 FreeBSD from being unable to see the device well enough to mount a
 filesystem from it...

I went into SMOR (cntrl-A) at bootup and configured the drives on the raid  
card as RAID-0 and actually got OpenBSD FloppyB to boot and configure the 
disks after disabling DMA mode.  I'd prefer to use FreeBSD.  


 A quick'n'dirty way to get around the problem is to grab the bootable
 floppy images and build install floppies (Handbook, section 2.2.7
 http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-pre.html)
 and use those to do a network install.

Using the same configuration which worked with OpenBSD I booted off of the 4.7 
cd and it still attempts to mount root file system from /dev/fd0c.  I tried 
booting off of the cdrom and get all the way to kernel configuration mode, 
remove the 7 conflicting devices and hit Q.  The kernel proceeds to load and 
I can see the asr0 device and my cdrom device and my floppy device.  

It's always trying to mount root on /dev/fd0c for some strange reason.  If I 
disable the floppy in the bios and remove it from the kernel I still can't 
get anywhere.  I'm pretty much at a loss now.  If anyone knows how to get 
this card working in FreeBSD or linux I would appreciate it.  It's going back 
to Windows 2000 Advanced Server if I can't get this.  Thanks for any 
assistance.

Hash: SHA1

Hello,

I know this is off topic however I hope someone can help.

I have a flat file that I need to import into a database.  The first field of 
the file is a part number which cannot exceed more than 8 characters.

Does anyone know how I can use  sed to count the characters in the first field 
and if there are more than 8 print out a list?

Thank you.

Matt

The samba machine has around 300 users connected to it at any given time.
Thanks for any help.  This is really starting to become a problem.
