My motherboard has a BIOS option as to how the memory is to be used.  If 
it is remapped, then you can see 3.2GB from a 32-bit OS (like Windows XP 
or Vista x86).  If I turn remapping off, then only 3.0GB will show in 
such a 32-bit OS.  However, a 64-bit OS can see all the memory and use 
it accordingly. 


Check your BIOS.

Hello,

Recently, the daily/weekly/monthly periodic emails have stopped coming

Samba and FAM

2006-09-13 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
I have been using Samba 3.x for my Windows file share and printing.  I 
chose not to use FAM as the implementation on FreeBSD seems non-existant 
(where is the daemon?).  So, when I configured Samba, I unchecked the 
option for FAM.  Yet, when it runs, I still see that it is required.


Sep 13 03:12:30 fuggle smbd[2898]:   FAM file change notifications not 
available
Sep 13 03:12:30 fuggle smbd[2897]:   FAM file change notifications not

lib/util_sock.c:read_data(534)


I considered uninstalling FAM and rebuilding Samba, but, as it turns 
out, Courier-IMAP requires FAM as a dependency even though it is not a 
declared dependency in the Makefile.


Even though FAM was not selected when building Samba, I am getting the 
above errors.  Is there a way to avoid these filling my log files?

Problems with phpMyAdmin ...

2006-01-03 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
Recently, I pulled down the current ports on my 6.0-RELEASE system and 
ran portupgrade (-Ra).  Everything works fabulously except for 
phpMyAdmin.  Other PHP (5.1.1) applications work just fine, including 
postfixadmin and others.  With phpMyAdmin (2.7.0p2 and all previous 
versions that I have attempted manually) I simply get a empty page.  If 
I run it through Squid, I get the following.


"The following error was encountered:

   * * Zero Sized Reply *

Squid did not receive any data for this request."

I have checked my Apache (2.0) error logs and find no errors at all.  
This problem is unique to phpMyAdmin and I am truly stumped.  I have 
been through all of the documentation and I have searched Google for 
hours.  I have found MANY reports of this same issue, but none have 
found the cause (some wiped everything and reinstalled with success, but 
that is not an option).


So, does anybody here with experience with this piece of software have a 
suggestion as to its cause?


Thanks in advance,

Courier IMAP, MySQL, Postfix and Maildrop

2004-09-17 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
Has anybody setup the combination of  Courier IMAP, MySQL, Postfix and 
Courier Maildrop and managed to get it to work?

I am so close I could just scream, but I can not get any of the Courier 
components to work!

I get postfix to query my MySQL database just fine so it will accept 
recipient mail.  However, when I try to get courier maildrop to deliver 
the mail I get:

fuggle# maildrop -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Invalid user specified.
There is no record of it querying the database even though I know I have 
the maildropmysql.config setup correctly (tabs, no spaces  etc).  As 
a matter of fact, it doesn't seem to matter what is in the file and just 
touching it results in the same thing!

I am having the same problem with Courier IMAP, it doesn't seem to read 
the database either and I have setup authmysqlrc appropriately as well 
and placed authmysql at the front of the authmodulelist.

Does anybody have any ideas what I should look for to solve this 
problem?  It is truly maddening.

You should allow all traffic on your loopback device by default.  Much like
this (for IPFILTER)

pass in quick on lo0 all
pass out quick on lo0 all

It would also be good to block spoofed traffic if you allowing connectivity
to the internet or other unprotected networks.

#
# Deny reserved addresses.
#
block in log quick from 10.0.0.0/8 to any group 100
block in log quick from 192.168.0.0/16 to any group 100
block in log quick from 172.16.0.0/12 to any group 100

#
# prevent IP spoofing.
#
block in log quick from me to any group 100

BTW ... group 100 is "inbound packets on the public interface".

The best sample is /etc/rc.firewall [and look in /usr/share/examples/ipfw
for a potentially useful script to use while testing].  I have moved over to
IPFILTER due to the fact that natd is userland based and is more problematic
[than ipnat] because of it.

'all' is the default make target in just about all ports, so it is actually
redundant.

I think the ATI Radeon DDR (7500) will do this, and they are quite cheap now

Take a look at the text ... it should tell you how to forcibly install over

Re: How do I max a 6Mbps link

2003-07-09 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
The problem is probably file I/O.  I use samba for use with Windows.  I can
transfer a large file from my FreeBSD server and get almost 10MB/s (using an
Intel 10/100 card).  However, when I transfer files to FreeBSD, I only get
about 6MB/s.  I seem to get this same ratio when using FTP transfers as
well.  This leads me to believe it is I/O bound (my FreeBSD machine has a
UDMA66, mainboard limitted to UDMA33,  7200RPM drive in it running
softupdates).  BTW -- this is one area where Linux (w / reiserfs) kicks the
FreeBSD daemon all over town.

That is a question that is like asking the difference between a dog and a
bird.  Both are animals, but that is all they have in common.

In the case of your question, they are both languages (or scripts).  SQL is
a query language for databases and PHP is a scripting language that is
primarily used for web pages.

Any more details beyond that are way out of context for this forum.

Problem with USB ulpt0 and CUPS

2003-06-18 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
I posted this in April and received no response.  However, this has been an
ongoing issue since at least 2001 (where I found the first reference to this
trouble via Google).

The problem seems to be that the FreeBSD USB LPT driver (even with no-reset)
is somehow dropping the first bits of the data stream, causing a page full
of trash to be printed prior to the actual print job.  I have no verified
this problem with 5.1-RELEASE as well.



I have a machine that has been serving as a print server.  That machine was
running CUPS and SAMBA over Linux.  Now, it is running FreeBSD
5.0-RELEASE-p7 with CUPS and SAMBA.  I have a Lexmark Optra 312 laser
printer hooked up to the usb port, ulpt0 (no reset).  When it was running
linux, everything ran perfectly.  I allow the Windows client machines to use
their print drivers and send a raw stream through samba to cups for
printing.  This configuration has worked fine.  However, for reasons of my
own, I have put FreeBSD 5.0 on this machine.  The same software
configuration exists for printing.  Now, when I print most pages, I get an
extra page prefixing the job with two or three lines of printer commands
(i.e. resolution = 600, @PCL, etc).  This seems to be caused by the FreeBSD
usb printer driver dropping a couple of characters at the beginning of the
command stream.  This used to happen to me with FreeBSD 4.6 as well, which
is why that machine was running Linux in the first place.  Has anybody seen
this strange behavior and is there a known fix for it?

Thanks in advance,

Tom Veldhouse

Yes they are.  They are DRM drivers exactly for this purpose.There is a

I know, but I've been running top for about 15 minutes now, and it
consistently
shows 0.0%. I can also assume that top has gotten in sync with somehow, but
then again I have more than 1 runnable process on average over the last
15 minutes, so I would suspect that some other process should also get some
CPU.

And of course I also ran top on other terminals -- could they all be in sync
at the same time or something?

Hi,

On a lightly loaded server top is misbehaving: it continuously shows all
CPU states at 0.0% yet my load varies from 0.50 to about 3. Is there
any explanation for this?

Obviously, my kernel + world are in sync, running 4.8-RELEASE.
Rebuilding top did no good.

Re: OpenGL and ATI Radeon 9700 Pro

2003-06-16 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
http://gatos.sourceforge.net/ati.2.php

The binary drivers do not work, presumably because they were compiled with
gcc-2.95.2?  I think the modules for X (not the kernel modules) are supposed
to be portable between platforms (i.e. Linux and FreeBSD).  However, you can
CVS source and try to build from there, but I have had no luck as I have not
been able to login:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ati]$
cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/gatos login
Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/cvsroot/gatos
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)

I have the drivers working great under Linux using Gentoo ... but I would
like my workstation to be FreeBSD for the obvious reason ... but I need
accellerated OpenGL support.

This weekend I installed KDE and noticed that the OpenGL screen savers were
incredibly slow.  It is clear that the graphic accelleration provided by my
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro video card is not being used.  I found a site that had
drivers apparently for FreeBSD, but it didn't seem to work.  I am running
FreeBSD 5.1.  Are there adequate drivers out there to support this?

Re: 5.1 on a 386

2003-06-12 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
I recall conversation in current about dropping i386 support.  Still, the
kernel config files back me up.

In GENERIC of the 4.x series

machine i386
cpu I386_CPU
cpu I486_CPU
cpu I586_CPU
cpu I686_CPU
ident   GENERIC


In GENERIC of the 5.x series

machine i386
cpu I486_CPU
cpu I586_CPU
cpu I686_CPU
ident   GENERIC


And I find this in NOTES

#
# You must specify at least one CPU (the one you intend to run on);
# deleting the specification for CPUs you don't need to use may make
# parts of the system run faster.
# I386_CPU is mutually exclusive with the other CPU types.
#
#cpuI386_CPU
cpu I486_CPU
cpu I586_CPU# aka Pentium(tm)
cpu I686_CPU# aka Pentium Pro(tm)

So, support is there, but I wonder how much.

I could be wrong, but I thought that they finally gave up on 386 support and
now the base minimum is 486.  It could very well be that you can't compile

Re: Upgrading 5.0 -> 5.1

2003-06-12 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
You will need a whole new world as well.

cvsup
(cd /usr/src && make world)
(cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf && config GENERIC && cd ../compile/GENERIC &&
make all install)
reboot


Approximately.  I guess there is a way to make the kernel from the top level
tree, but I have always done it that above way and don't plan to change
unless I must.

Sound Blaster Live DD5.1

2003-06-08 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse
I have recently purchased a Dell Dimension 8250 which contains a Creative
Labs SoundBlaster Live! DD 5.1 card.  My previous SoundBlaster Live! card
was detected in FreeBSD 4.7, but this one is not detected in this machine
using FreeBSD 5.1 RELEASE (cvsup to it).  No pcm devices show during boot.
Is there a way to give the kernel a hint?  There is no way to shut of PNP in
the BIOS, as Dell as not added this option.

Windows XP is showing:

I/O Range: DC40-DC5F
IRQ: 18

Thanks in advance,

Re: What is the best IDE for C++programming in FreeBSD4.4?

2002-10-08 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse

KDevelop is the one I tend to use.  You could try Eclipse as well.  I
believe there is a C++ plugin for it.

It is for name caching.  It is supplied as part of the GNU C library.
isc-bind fills the role nicely.

Re: php4 apache 2

2002-10-08 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse

If you build mod_php4 and choose imap-ssl and you have not yet built the
imap client library (cclient), it will build it as a dependency, but it will
not build it with ssl support and thus it will fail.  Solution is to build
cclient with SSL support first.

# (cd /usr/ports/mail/cclient && make -DWITH_SSL all install clean)
# (cd /usr/ports/www/mod_php4 && make all install clean)

Actually, the problem occurs when you build in IMAP-SSL.  It has not worked
for a very long time.  I am not entirely sure why, as I have not had a large
enough need to look into it.

Re: IPFW and IpFilter

Why would you want to do that?  I can think of no reason to use both other
than some of the supplemental features of ipfw like bandwidth shaping.

Re: SSH asks strange questions...

2002-10-07 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse

You an also change your default protocol to ssh 2 rather than ssh 1 (so that
it tries using ssh 2 first).

For freebsd-security:  Why is the default still ssh 1?

Re: apache13-modssl + mod_php4, php not interpreted

2002-10-03 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse

First, did you start your server with SSL?  Second, unless you want php to
run ONLY with SSL, I would move it out of that block so that it will start
anytime.  Lastly, make sure you have the following in your config.

[...]
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
[...]
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
[...]

Re: motherboard for freebsd 5.0 server

2002-10-02 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse

Depending on the use perhaps (I am not sure there is a working hot swapable
IDE raid solution for FreeBSD), but most can probably get by with it.  Of
more concern is that FreeBSD 5.0 is going to be used.  Don't use that!  It
is not stable yet.

Re: MySQL or Postgresql on FreeBSD, have I just started a holy war?

2002-10-02 Thread Thomas T. Veldhouse

I am a Postgresql person myself.  I can say there is one bad thing about
Postgres that might be annoying to some.  When data is deleted, the disk
space is not recovered until a manual "vacuum" takes place.  On a high load
system with many updates or deletes, this could be a real headache.  A cron
job would probably fill role nicely.
