Need to change screen resolution...
Hello I am trying to find a way to change my current screen resolution from the default 720x426 (I think). The monitor I use to view all my servers via KVM switch - the font is too big on the screen - if I could increase the screen size to maybe 1028x756 that would be great. Any one knowing please email me the answer.

CURRENT buildworld woes
Greetings all, I have an annoying problem when trying to build world: make depend complains about not finding a certain unwind.h, when compiling libstdc++. My CC in make.conf is set to gcc, my CXX is set to g++, CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS are both empty (both in make.conf and in my environment).

Using multiple outside IPs on ADSL (PPPoE) connection
Hi, until now we had one outside IP address and used FreeBSD machine to do NAT and run some mail and webserver for our needs. Few days ago we got a /30 subnet (netmask 255.255.255.252) and now, when I connect to ISP, I get only first IP of the subnet. Of course, while it's available, I would like to have some services listening on other IP addresses as well. I have searched a lot and I have found a guy, asking just the same as I am (http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=sllr=threadm=6261e7aa.0409030400.107b2db2%40posting.google.comrnum=15prev=/groups%3Fq%3D%2522freebsd%2522%2B%252B%2B%2522subnet%2522%2B%252B%2B%2522pppoe%2522%26start%3D10%26hl%3Dsl%26lr%3D%26selm%3D6261e7aa.0409030400.107b2db2%2540posting.google.com%26rnum%3D15), but got no appropriate answer.

I also tried to define second_ip_of_subnet with subnet mask 255.255.255.255 to rl0, but still that second IP isn't pingable from outside world.

drive access/printer question
Hi, I've installed and configured FreeBSD, and am now trying to read and write to my drives and printers. Upon booting, the OS detects the floppy drive (fd0), hard drive (ad0), CDROM (acd0) and printer (lpt0), as it should. fstab only has the hard drive (on which BSD is installed) and the CDROM The specific questions are: 1. Do I need to find and install specific drivers for each of these devices, even though they were detected? 2. Once #1 is resolved, can I access these as default devices, and how? I've used UNIX for many years, but this is my first full try with BSD on a desktop. I've looked through all of the web documentation, FAQ's and also perused the newsgroup archive. I'm just getting into the printing section of the handbook, but could not find specific information on the drives. Here is the relevant information about my platform: FreeBSD 4.10 i386 [ELF] Intel Pentium II 266 MHZ/256MB RAM Panasonic DVD II DVD-ROM Drive Panasonic 1.44-MB Floppy Disk Drive Western Digital 40-GB Hard Drive _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

What is portmapper (I MUST have portmapper running to use pcnfsd)
Hi : I am trying to replace a sparcstation which has solaris 2.5, we use it to boot some diskless pc's into MS-DOS 6.22 and mount a file system in the disk C: of the pc with PC/TCP 4.1. The boot process I had figured out, but the connection of the drive C: to the file system is given me problems. The problem I think is that I don't have running something called portmapper. Since I am not subscribed to the list, please send me a copy of your answer. Let me explain why I think that, I decide that I have to use tcpdump to see what is happening. The diskless is booting with the ip 10.115.44.50 # tcpdump -n ip host 10.115.44.50 tcpdump: listening on xl0 03:44:04.337343 10.115.44.50.603 10.115.44.245.111: udp 56 03:44:04.337379 10.115.44.245 10.115.44.50: icmp: 10.115.44.245 udp port 111 unreachable 03:44:04.340453 10.115.44.50.604 10.115.44.245.111: udp 56 03:44:04.340465 10.115.44.245 10.115.44.50: icmp: 10.115.44.245 udp port 111 unreachable So, mi diskless is trying to connect to the port 111/udp, and my services files says: sunrpc 111/tcprpcbind #SUN Remote Procedure Call sunrpc 111/udprpcbind #SUN Remote Procedure Call And the inetd.conf does not have nothing called sunrpc or rpcbind, but has the nexts lines: ** # # RPC based services (you MUST have portmapper running to use these) # #rstatd/1-3 dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/libexec/rpc.rstatd rpc.rstatd #rusersd/1-2dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/libexec/rpc.rusersd rpc.rusersd #walld/1dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/libexec/rpc.rwalld rpc.rwalld #pcnfsd/1-2 dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/libexec/rpc.pcnfsd rpc.pcnfsd #rquotad/1 dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/libexec/rpc.rquotad rpc.rquotad #sprayd/1 dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/libexec/rpc.sprayd rpc.sprayd ** What is the portmapper and how can I run it?, Do I have to uncomment the pcnfsd line?.

When I check the man page for inetd.conf I found this about RPC-based services that I belive they are TCP-MUX services. ** To specify an ONC RPC-based service, the entry would contain these fields: service name/version socket type rpc/protocol user[:group][/login-class] server program server program arguments There are two types of services that inetd can start: standard and TCP- MUX. A standard service has a well-known port assigned to it; it may be a service that implements an official Internet standard or is a BSD-specific service. As described in RFC 1078, TCPMUX services are non- standard services that do not have a well-known port assigned to them. They are invoked from inetd when a program connects to the ``tcpmux'' well-known port and specifies the service name. This feature is useful for adding locally-developed servers. TCPMUX requests are only accepted when the multiplexor service itself is enabled, above and beyond and spe- cific TCPMUX-based servers; see the discussion of internal services below. ** TIA maps *** Contrata Prodigy Infinitum y navega a Infinitum de velocidad sin ocupar tu teléfono.

Re: Retired Linux user wants to switch
On Thu, 2004-01-29 at 20:22, Mike Machuidel wrote: I've been using Linux for about 7 years.

Many people called me crazy/stupid/dumb Be prepared to get that all over again.. with people wondering why you use FreeBSD instead of their beloved Linux. ... really turned me off. They called me a troll, that I should go back to Windows, I'm too dumb to use Linux and because I told them I've been on this channel even before you began using Linux they kicked me off. This is 1 of the many examples. I started using Linux about 10 years ago, and switched to FreeBSD almost exclusively about 2 years after that. While I still have one machine in my home using Linux, I do so only due to hardware requirements and I have grown to loath it. I can sympathise with your experience. It may sound weird, but because of what the Linux community has become I would like to try and switch some of my systems over to FreeBSD. First I have some questions about what to expect: You should find the FreeBSD community very supportive, in even the most basic of issues, provided you first have a read through the FreeBSD Handbook and other supporting documentation (all available through the freebsd.org website), and ask your question in the appropriate location, as you have done here. Is there any alternative for Shorewall? If not, would it be wise to port it to FreeBSD? Not exactly. Shorewall relies on Netfilter (IPTables), which is a Linux only thing. Depending on what your requirements are there are a few alternatives to Netfilter. There is IPFilter IPFW (both included in recent FreeBSD releases). There is also the 'PF' packet filter ported from OpenBSD (in ports under security/pf). Whichever firewall/filtering method best suites your requirements will determine what your options are for pursuing configuration tools like Shorewall. For appliance like firewall applications you might want to check out the following BSD based solutions: ClosedBSD - (http://www.closedbsd.org/) m0n0wall - (http://m0n0.ch/wall/) NetBoz - (http://www.netboz.net/) PicoBSD - (http://people.freebsd.org/~picobsd/picobsd.html) - dated theWall - (http://thewall.sourceforge.net/) MicroBSD - (http://www.microbsd.net/) - based on OpenBSD Is FreeBSD using PAM by default? Will the combination of pam_ldap + nss_ldap + OpenLDAP work? Yes, PAM is available out of the box, and NSS can be used this way, but your success may depend on the release of FreeBSD you choose to use. See here for a starting point: http://www.cultdeadsheep.org/FreeBSD/docs/Quick_and_dirty_FreeBSD_5_x_and_nss_ldap_mini-HOWTO.html Can FreeBSD resolve reverse dependecies? Is there something to clean up orphan dependecies? If you are referring to package management. Yes, there are a number of support tools available for this very purpose. All packages are handled through the ports system in /usr/ports (also see www.freshports.org), and dependencies are never a problem if you use these tools effectively. Check out 'sysutils/portupgrade' for package management and 'sysutils/pkg_cutleaves' for dealing with orphans Does FreeBSD have something like SYSV modules (just asking, of course there's kill)? I'm not sure what you mean by this. If you mean basic compatibility like semaphores, shared memory and IPC, then yes. If you mean a SYSV style init and run level structure, then no. How well does DRM/DRI work in FreeBSD? That will probably depend on the video card. See http://www.freshports.org/graphics/drm-kmod/ Is it possible to PXE boot the FreeBSD installation and install from the network (without setting up NFS)? This is possible, check the handbook for the Jumpstart Guide section, and use FTP as the media type instead of NFS. Are there any recommendations for managing a hosting server? Software? Configurations? Read the FreeBSD Handbook, and other supporting documentation. Use the ports collection! These were all question for now. I hope the story at the beginning wasn't too much and didn't violate the rules of this forum. That's basically what this list is for. -- Seeya...Q -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- _ / Quinton Dolan [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ __/ / / __/ / / /__ / _// / Gold Coast, QLD, Australia __/ __/ __/ / / - / Ph: +61 419 729 806 ___ / _\ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: FreeBDS don't accept 4 networkcards
This doesn't exactly help identify the problem much either. How about including the dmesg output from bootup, and maybe the output from pciconf. If the card isn't being detected you need to do some detective work to figure out where in the boot process things are going wrong. Is it not being seen at all on the pci bus? Is the kernel failing to recognise it for what it is? Is the device driver not probing/attaching the device? Determining these things will ultimately point to where the problem lies and hopefully identify the solution. Seeya...Q On Fri, 2004-01-30 at 01:40, Sjaak Nabuurs wrote: Your post is too general.

Re: Performance Issues
Xine seems to have trouble playing movies at the beginning, it's choppy for the first several seconds, then resumes the movie normally after it's in a little ways. Even stopping and restarting, it still exhibits the same behavior at the beginning of a movie file. Also, watching dvd's on this computer is slightly choppy, but very slight. Do you have DMA enabled on your DVD drive (you can check using 'atacontrol mode channel')? mplayer seems to do fine for dvd's and movies, but mplayer has no menu support for dvd's. I haven't had this trouble with xine on linux using much older versions to just slightly more recent than xine in the freebsd ports and I would like to have it fixed. You can actually compile in dvd menu support into mplayer, but I'm not sure if it works as well as Xine. I haven't used either for playing DVDs in some time. Also, artsd has troubles. The sound is slightly scratchy coming out it and after it's been running a while, gaim sounds playing through artsd don't quite finish and echos the last bit of the sound, sounding all scratchy. Esd seems to work better, but everything I've read and seen about those two always claims that artsd is much better and higher quality than esd. I would use whichever works best. I don't use sound much at all so I can't really help with that.. but when I have used sound daemons in the past they have always caused me problems unless they were running with a fairly decent sized buffer cache. Lastly, the system seems slow at times after I haven't been doing much work in it, especially when I have many windows open in mozilla. I think this is just because the system is having to swap in memory, but I don't remember it being such a big problem in linux. I'm using freebsd 4.9 on a PIII 600Mhz with 128 meg ram. Freebsd has a 256 meg swap as the default of install made it. In linux, I only had a 128 meg swap. Try running 'top' or some other sort of system monitor to see exactly what's happening.

It means there's basically no chance that what happened with RedHat will ever happen to FreeBSD. No, but it surely is possible that the people that devote time to FreeBSD will be taken for granted, and will drift away from spending time on the project? The company I work for (an ISP) has over 20 odd servers running FreeBSD, we rely on it to run our network, applications and services. Part of my regular work day is spent learning, improving, writing and supporting parts of FreeBSD and it's supporting applications that are important to our business. It doesn't matter if other people take this work for granted, or if contributions don't get included in future versions, we do it because it's important to running OUR business, and this is our way of giving something back to the community. I believe this philosophy has a lot to do with why FreeBSD (and the other *BSD's for that matter) is an excellent server platform, and is pretty lacking as a user friendly desktop environment. Desktop FreeBSD is not important to our business because virtually all our desktops are all windows based for a variety of reasons, the main one being it's the platform that 99% of our customers use. So although FreeBSD could benefit from an improved installation process and a more advanced desktop environment, we won't be contributing to it any time soon because it works fine for us just the way it is. I hope that FreeBSD continues to be built by people who don't do it for money, because I really believe that free software is built more lovingly (sorry, I couldn't think of a better word) than commercial, factory-produced stuff. But a donation here and there can't hurt. I think FreeBSD has been built out of necessity by the people, like us, that use it to serve a purpose, rather than by people who seek to produce a competitive product. This is another reason why FreeBSD won't 'die'. FreeBSD is a community project, not a company product, so while ever people still use it, there will be people equipped to contribute to making it better. Anyone can contribute to FreeBSD, and it doesn't need to be in the form of a donation, or writing code. Writing and revising documentation doesn't require much in the way of programming abilities at all. And it's something that every programmer loathes doing at one time or another. The key to choosing what to work on is to find something that you NEED, or is important to YOU and work on that. If you try to find something that you think other people will want but you have no real use for, you are destined for failure. If you decide to contribute by helping people on mailing lists or forums, you may end up writing documentation anyway because you find yourself answering the same questions regularly. Anyway.. best of luck. I'm sure your efforts, in whatever form they may be will be appreciated.

Re: A Challenge... NAT for PPP dial in user
I must have missed the original email, but I think the fact that the local end of the ppp link has the same IP address as the machine's default gateway is probably more to blame. The ppp ifaddr range should be either on a different subnet, or use an address range not already in use on the lan. This means BOTH ends of the link. So take out '192.168.1.1' and replace it with something unused. You will probably need to change the add route statement to 'add HISADDR 255.255.255.255 MYADDR' because you don't want to route the whole subnet down the ppp interface.

Re: wake-on-lan support? (WOL)
This is mostly true, but the NIC driver also needs to ensure that it leaves this feature enabled after it has reset the hardware and set it up to it's liking. If the driver doesn't have WOL awareness the feature will more likely be disabled during the attach phase of loading the driver. Using On Now as opposed to WakeOnLan however, must be enabled by the driver because the NIC uses a packet mask with user configured contents to wake up, which can't be set in the BIOS. I think the main reason for the lack of support is that this technology isn't very useful from a server perspective, and is intended more for managing desktops and embedded systems, rather than the 24x7 uptime tasks that FreeBSD is normally employed for.

If it's a x86 PC you need a ATX power supply and board, a network card that supports WOL, have the powerconnector of the network card connected to the board, so it has power even if the machine is powered down. You need to enable it in the PC bios and for some NICs also in the NIC's BIOS as well (e.g. RTL 8139) using a NIC specific tool (usually under DOS). Then you should do a soft powerdown (e.g. halt -p) and then send the magic packet to the subnet the WOL machine is in. Unfortunatly there are also different magic packets send by different tools and some of the are not available on FreeBSD (e.g. Donald Becker's ether-wake, which works for me).

Still sounds like some kind of hardware problem, because it runs fine as long as it isn't under pressure and fails in a different way each time. If it's always the same CPU, that may be a hint.

Re: Where is the config file?
You might want to look at the portupgrade tool in the ports collection. It supports a '-P' flag that tells it to use packages instead of compiling from source. It does an excellent job of handling dependencies (if used correctly), and is very easy to use. It may be better to create a friendly face to using portupgrade, rather than creating yet another tool that does the same thing. I am not familiar with apt-get but I believe portupgrade would provide a solid package management engine to whatever interface you choose to build around it.

You can override the defaults by setting various environment variables: PACKAGEROOT, PACKAGESITE as described in the pkg_add(1) man page. If you're interested in exactly how pkg_add works out what URL to use, look at the definition of the 'releases' array near the top of /usr/src/usr.sbin/pkg_install/add/main.c Hmmm... I do believe I can see what might be a bijou little buglette there. Seems that there's no mention of packages-4.8-release or the impending packages-4.9-release. (Checks cvsweb...) Hmmm... Looks like only RELENG_4_8 branch gets an indication of where the 4.8-RELEASE packages are. Makes a certain kind of sense. Also, along the same note, I searched through the handbook but could not find any information on how to convert a 4-STABLE to a 4-CURRENT. I want to only use CURRENT software not update my kernel to CURRENT. Is this possible? Firstly, there's no such thing as 4-CURRENT and there hasn't been for several years. Your choices at the moment (other than one of the -RELEASE branches) are 4-STABLE or 5-CURRENT. Similarly, there is no 5-STABLE just yet: the omens are that it may appear alongside 5.3 release. This is documented in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvs-tags.html and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/5-roadmap/index.html Using 5-CURRENT is not recommended unless you are of FreeBSD developer calibre, as it is the bleeding edge and you will need quite a lot of code-fu to be able to deal with the fine messes it can get you into. You seem to be on 4-STABLE already -- unless you have a pressing reason, like you have hardware only supported in 5.x or insatiable curiosity, then I'd stick with that. If you must run a 5.x version go with 5.1-RELEASE which is the best and most recent 5.x code right now. As for upgrading from 4.x-STABLE to 5.x-RELEASE: this can be done by compiling the 5.x sources under 4.x, but it is by no means a trivial task, and there are various new features (like UFS2 filesystems) that you won't be able to take advantage of without extreme pain. Take a look at the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/UPDATING?rev=1.251.2.12content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markuponly_with_tag=RELENG_5_1 for details from the UPDATING file for 5.1-RELEASE -- the bit you want is pretty much right at the end of the file) On the whole, you may find it more productive to cut yourself some 5.1 Installation media, wipe your present system and do a fresh install. If pkg_add -r is provided a URL to a CURRENT directory, would it fetch all dependencies from the same directory or would it revert to its configured URL to fetch the dependencies? From reading the source code, I believe that the first option will be the case, unless you set PKG_ADD_BASE in the environment. But I could be wrong.

Re: writing pdfs
You have quite a few options: 1. HTMLDOC - will convert most HTML documents to PDF very quickly (I use this in production to generate several thousand files a month) 2. Openoffice 1.1 - has an Export to PDF option. (the most recent port works) 3. Anything that prints using Gnome's Gnome-print or KDE's Kprint, eg. Abiword or Kword, even gedit. 4. Ghostscript's ps2pdf tool used with any application that can save or print to postscript, like a2ps, html2ps, etc. Whichever method you choose, make sure you verify the output in Acrobat a few times until you are confident with the result. Sometimes it takes a bit of tweaking to get everything in the right places.

I haven't gotten OpenOffice to work under FreeBSD (and it isn't my favourite tool by a long shot) and I am most happy generating text in vi. PDF is eminently portable, and I think that it would suit my purposes nicely. I had some thoughts about generating PDFs, but I was hoping for advice about which tools to use. Should I just learn how to mark up a text page manually (I write HTML almost as quickly as plain text)? Should I learn TeX or some variant and translate it? I hear that PHP has some excellent PDF-generation tools; should I write up a command-line interpreter myself? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I did a bit of searching, but I didn't find any real *advice* on what process to use, and most of the tools that I found are for viewing PDFs, not writing them.

If you know what you're doing, you can set the environment variable

Start opera with '-debugjava' argument for more information.

well, i'm using opera 6.1 build 271 i _don't_ get that output and the

which version are you using?
i then looked at /usr/local/bin/opera and found this at line 76:

i uncommented these lines, and when starting opera i got:
