Re: 9650SE-2LP raid card locks system

2011-01-08 Thread Troy Beisigl
We are using 7.  We see this in 8 as well. We see it on dual and quad core 
CPUs. I'm currently testing out another motherboard (different model) to see 
how it performs. Should know something by the end of the coming week.

From there everything is locked hard. Not even the caps/numlock keys work on 
the keyboard. I would normally suspect hardware, but I can take and wipe the 
drives and re-install CentOS5.4 and it will run without any issues. I would 
prefer not to use Linux, but it is looking like we are going to have to if we 
can't resolve the issues with these controllers and FreeBSD.

When it locks up, are you sure its the disk that locks up ?  From the

 Thanks,
 
 Weird.  Something seems to have eaten chunks out of your message.  I
 suspect a less than optimal conversion from HTML -- for best results
 write to FreeBSD lists in plain text.
 
 Anyhow, you've got a system with 9TB disk but your big partition gets
 truncated?
 
 It's not the limits in the UFS2 filesystem that are biting you: that can
 handle individual files of up to 32 PB (with the right options) and a
 total filesystem size of 1 YB.  You may not be familiar with Y 'Yotta'
 as an SI prefix: it means 10^24.  That's more than enough to boil the
 oceans should you attempt to create a filesystem of that size[*].
 
 I suspect that you are running into limitations of the disk label.  The
 original Dos-derived MBR that you can manipulate with fdisk(8) is based
 around 32bit quantities and has an inherent limitation to 2TB per
 partition.  There are ways around this, not least by using the new
 gpart(8) disk partitioning.  See:
 http://www.freebsd.org/projects/bigdisk/index.html
 
 Personally, I'd start again from scratch and install using both gpart(8)
 and zfs(1M).  Unfortunately sysinstall(8) can't handle doing that at the
 moment.  You need to follow a different procedure described here:
 http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot/Mirror  (Or the equivalent
 pages for RAIDZ1 or RAIDZ2 if that's what you prefer)
 
 Although ZFS's maximum size is /only/ 1 EB (individual file or whole
 filesystem) it should still suffice.  The compelling advantage with ZFS
 is the built-in checksumming of every data block.  That's important for
 large data volumes where bitwise errors can become significant.  Also,
 no need for fsck(8).  Not even background fsck.
 
Cheers,
 
Matthew

Ezjail, Perl, upgrading best practices advise please

2009-10-02 Thread Troy Kocher
All,
Couple issues:
1) I need some understanding on how to deploy and upgrade perl
properly in this jailed environment.
2) I need some help on my current tangle of Perl library complaints

Issue #1: In a jailed environment how many installations of perl are
recommended (ie 1 host system 2 basejail 3 each jail) ?  My sense
would be that one on the host and one in the basejail, would be the
most efficient.  If that is the case how do I upgrade the perl in the
basejail?  How do I handle different versions of perl installed in
each of the jails?

Issue #2:  My lack of understanding has me in a mess currently.  My
host environment is using (perl-threaded-5.8.9_3), in jail #1 I have
(perl-5.8.9_3) when I try to use cpan here is what happens:

jail1#perl -MCPAN -e 'shell'
Terminal does not support AddHistory.
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.9301)
ReadLine support available (maybe install Bundle::CPAN or Bundle::CPANxxl?)
print() on closed filehandle FOUT at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/Term/ReadLine.pm line 193.
readline() on closed filehandle FIN at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/Term/ReadLine.pm line 301.
print() on closed filehandle FOUT at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/Term/ReadLine.pm line 203.
Terminal does not support GetHistory.
Lockfile removed.

In Jail #2 another issue. . :

jail2#pkg_info |grep perl
mod_perl2-2.0.3_3,3 Embeds a Perl interpreter in the Apache2 server
p5-DBI-1.60.1   The perl5 Database Interface.  Required for DBD::* modules

Troubleshooting this complaint on jail2 I discovered the time stamp on
the host was different than the time stamp on the basejail.


Anyway I'm puzzled, and I'm not really sure where to go from here. .
I'd appreciate any help..

Thanks

I have a 6.4 machine (about to be retired). On that machine, man 4  
re says it supports the RTL8111S, but does not mention the  
RTL8111GR. My guess is that


in 7.1 it too says only about S, i assumed that S and GR are only  
different chip revisions/different functionality, maybe one have  
builtin PHY other external etc. etc. but it's software compatible.


That's usual naming scheme of chips, but of course there may be  
exceptions.

RTL8111-GR driver for FreeBSD6.4

2009-05-27 Thread Troy Beisigl

Hi all,

I have been looking for and have not been able to find out if there is  
a driver for FreeBSD6.4 that supports the RTL8111-GR network adaptor.  
This is a port that is built into the Intel DG31PR Motherboard.  Has  
anyone been able to get this network card to work under 6.4?


Thanks,

Troy Beisigl

KDE QPainter PorterDuff modes not supported on device and phonon backend plugin could not be loaded

Hi,

I'm trying to solve two errors associated with running KDE over 
TightVNC.  When I look at the log, I consistently see these errors. I've 
tried to find answers on how to solve each of them and have not had 
anything work at this point. 


Thanks,

 Since you don't mention that you are running an old release, have you
 tried switching to csup in the base system?

I am on RELENG_7.  I just rebuilt the world on the machine when this
problem started. I should have mentioned that. I also rebuilt the world on
a second server sitting right next to this one and it has no problem with
CVSUP.  There has to be a cause for why this cvsup is failing or a file
that can be deleted and rebuilt or some other troubleshooting to this
problem.  Anyone have ideas?

Last commmand showing resolved hostname

2009-01-17 Thread Troy
I have a question.  Is there a way that you can make the 'last' command
display the DNS resolved name of the users that have logged into a machine
rather than the IP address.  Showing both name and IP address would be
even better.  

I looked at the man page (man last) and it says Host names may be names or
internet numbers.  The machine has it's DNS client working just fine. I
can resolve names perfectly fine on the machine.  It just appears that the
'last' command needs something that I'm unaware of to use the DNS
resolver.

Any ideas?

bind 9 caching only name server best practice.

2008-09-02 Thread Troy Beisigl

Hi,

I'm looking for some information on what the best way to run a bind 9  
caching name server on FreeBSD 6.3 +. Basically, configurations and  
kernel tweaks on the FreeBSD side of things for memory and performance  
is what I am looking for. The actual Bind compile and configuration I  
understand. Does anyone have any insight on this they would like to  
share?


Thanks,

 Try adding them to /etc/sysctl.conf instead?

Vim insert mode requires 'i' three times

2008-03-13 Thread Troy
I'm not sure if anyone has seen this but it started a few months ago.
When I startup vim I have to hit 'i' three times to get it to go into
insert mode.  I started troubleshooting my .vimrc file and figured out
that as long as I have a .vimrc file, even if it's completely blank it
exhibits this behavior.  I notice that there is a 'c' letter in the buffer
upon startup but again there is nothing that is in the .vimrc file that is
causing this to load.  

If I delete the .vimrc file and start the program, I can hit 'i' once and it 
will go into insert mode like it's
supposed to.  

I have had this problem on 6.3 and just upgraded to 7.0 and it still is
there. This is happening on two different FreeBSD machines.  

One machine is running:

vim+ruby-7.1.242_5
vim-lite-7.1.242

Anyone have any idea why this is happening?

lost+found help please

Yesterday my server rebooted for some unknown reason and after fsck-  
ing 4 times I had ALOT of stuff in lost+found.  I really need to try  
and review/recover these files.   Only docs I've found were linux  
centric, and focused on directories and dates.  I can't make out  
either here.


Please take a look at this http://www.mtadistributors.com/listing.txt;

I'd appreciate any advise you may have to offer.

Fwd: Jail is pausing . . Ideas please. . ?

Listers,

I appears I found the solution. .

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/arch-handbook/jail- 
restrictions.html


excerpt. .

Semaphore system calls allow processes to synchronize execution by  
doing a set of operations atomically on a set of semaphores.  
Basically semaphores provide another way for processes lock  
resources. However, process waiting on a semaphore, that is being  
used, will sleep until the resources are relinquished.


I had two scripts that run on this jail, they both connect to the  
database jail (pgsql) that is running on the same host. . Stopped  
those scripts and in the last 18 hrs the pausing  has been eliminated.


Thanks to those who had comments. .

Troy




Listers,

Currently I am having some strange issues with regard to a jail
pausing, hoping someone here might have some ideas. .
Here is my Usenet post. . :

I am running FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE (SMP),  and the the system seems to be
pausing.  System details:

I have da0, da1, da2, da3, each 500GB, I'm also using GEOM_CONCAT to
concatenation, amd64 SMP kernel, and 16GB of ram. Running 7 jails,
primarily running apache, samba, postfix, pgsql.

On what appears to be random occasions (usually several times in 5m)
the system seems to pause.  For instance, vipw takes 40s to respond,
or the smbd which clients use for their mailbox.pst ignores requests
from outlook to act on the file.  Then moments later it is happy
again, and begins working normally.  I have been monitoring top while
it happens and it appears like it is doing very little. . ie. .

last pid: 75014;  load averages:  0.00,  0.02,  
0.07   up 203+07:20:57 15:24:53

246 processes: 1 running, 244 sleeping, 1 stopped
CPU states:  0.0% user,  0.0% nice,  0.2% system,  0.1% interrupt,  
99.7% idle
Mem: 967M Active, 13G Inact, 320M Wired, 782M Cache, 214M Buf, 569M  
Free

Swap: 4096M Total, 2504K Used, 4093M Free

Tried running nice -20 vipw and it still took some time for it to
run.  Could it be a file locking issue?. .

Any thoughts or ideas on further troubleshooting would really be
appreciated

--
Since that post it actually appears to only be happening in one jail
called drzoe.  The host system seems to be working properly during
these slow downs

Other things I've considered:
1)  Is there an upper limit to the number of connections a NIC can
support?  Am I exceeding it? NiC  Switches aren't showing any packet
loss.
2)  Am I running out of IO, to and from the disks?  Tried looking at
iostat, but I'm exactly sure what a problem would look like.  Seems
like this wouldn't be jail specific

Give it seems to be limited to this jail it seems unlikely to be  
hardware. .

Mounting into a jail

2007-03-09 Thread Troy Schultz

Hello,

I am running FreeBSD 6.2.

I am currently mounting a smb share and then remounting the smb mount
into a jail with nullfs.

/etc/fstab
# smbfs mount
//user@servername/share /path/to/smb/mount  smbfs   rw  0   0
# local mount
/path/to/smb/mount  /path/to/jail/directory nullfs  rw,late 0   0

The main reason I am using this jail is for a webserver and I need to  
have

the web developer be able to write to this samba share

I originally tried mounting in fstab the smb share like this
//user@servername/share /path/to/smb/mount  smbfs   rw,uid=www  0 
  0
however, this did not work so I ended up making the share point owned  
by the
user and group www this took care of it but I was wondering if there  
was a
better way to do this as far as passing through to a jail and maybe  
getting

the uid to actually work from within the fstab file.

Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Thanks,

Troy

No experience with this, but the late option

SpamAssassin with Syslog-NG startup error with Syslog.pm

2006-03-19 Thread Troy
I'm using SpamAssassin 3.1.1 and upon startup I get the following error:

[767] error: no connection to syslog available
[767] error: _- unix dgram connect: Connection refused at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Mail/SpamAssassin/Logger/Syslog.pm
line 79

I believe this is because I'm using syslog-ng vs. the standard syslog
built in with FreeBSD 6.0.  

I tried to make sure the syslog-ng daemon load before SpamAssassin by
changing the name of the startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d but to no
avail...I still get that error upon startup.

Once the system starts up - SpamAssassin is sending syslogs properly but
I'd really like to solve the error.

Thoughts?

Possible Attack?

2005-06-21 Thread Troy G.

Hi all,

I was going through a few servers tonight and came across this in 
/var/log/messages.  This particular server functions mainly as our 
primary webserver.  Its running  FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE.  I decided to take 
a closer look to see what was generating these entries by loading up 
trafshow.  I noticed quite a bit of icmp requests coming in.  I created 
an access-list on the cisco and filtered icmp to this host and the 
messages kept logging.  It's obvious I didn't see any icmp anymore on 
the server but is this system under a heavy load?  I dont see the load 
being that high according to top.  Any suggestions?

If you want to disable it, just edit snmpd.conf in /usr/local/share/snmp

External Monitor console resolution black screen after exiting KDE

2005-03-01 Thread Troy
I'm having a strange problem and figured to post to the list for any
insight.  I have an IBM T23 ThinkPad and am running RELENG_5 (currently
5.4) branch.  

Everything works fine if the laptop is not connected to the KVM.  I can
boot up, launch KDE, exit and the console resets itself fine.

When I'm connected to my KVM with an external monitor, I can boot the
machine up and use the console just fine.  When I go to launch KDE, the
external monitor works fine.  Once I exit from KDE, it appears that the
operating system does not reset the terminal properly and the monitor just
shows a black screen as if the video mode is not supported.  

From that point, I can blindly type startx and get back into KDE and
the monitor will work properly, but I cannot get it to reset the console
properly.   If I toggle the video back to the laptop screen, I see
vertical lines on the screen.

The only way I can get it to clear is by shutting off the machine and
rebooting.  I recompiled my kernel with and without VESA, tried using
video modes that I know work in the console but nothing will reset it back
after exiting KDE.  Any insight would be great.

Thanks,

-Troy

Re: The FreeBSD Foundation

2004-12-23 Thread Troy Mills
Ted Mittelstaedt explained it far better then I could have and I thank
him for that.

FreeBSD is an awesome thing indeed and one of the wonderful things is
thatit is indeed free to the end user but really nothing is totally
free, peoples time is worth something and the hardware they need to
continue to develop is also not free. It is very easy to take things
for granted.

I know FreeBSD is _no where near_ going the way of the dodo but.. it
can only make things so much better for everyone if everyone chipped
in 5$ or whatever at least one time. Those who use this platform for
there own financial gain. i.e. corporate webservers etc..  should
really consider it as well. Buying CD's etc.. from freebsdmall.com
really helps as well, every little thing counts!.

Plus it is that time of the year! :)

p.s. I'm aware that gmail destroys the 'flow' of email sometimes so I
apologize in advance, nothing I can do about it.

  QUESTION: Do sales of the FreeBSD CDs support the project? And if so, now?
 
  I thought I _was_ supporting the project through my CD
  subscription... I was
  not aware of the FreeBSD Foundation (thanks for the enlightenment), but
  financial support for software developers of any kind seems a bit of a
  stretch for a charity. Perhaps I'm just not in tune with the legal
  definition of a charity.
 
 
 Hi Jay,
 
  The short answer to your question is it depends on who you buy
 your CD's from
 
  If you are buying them from http://www.freebsdmall.com then yes,
 they have provided significant support in the past and still do - in
 February 2004 they contributed $5K to The FreeBSD Foundation - and in
 the past, years ago when they were Walnut Creek CDROM they contributed
 far more support to the Project.
 
  If your buying from someone else that presses their own CD's then
 the answer is maybe.  You would have to ask them.  Keep in mind
 though that support comes in many forms other than just kicking
 money into a pot.  Far more valuable is time spent answering
 questions.
 
  You might consider this for example - If you ever purchased
 my book you supported me, I in turn have answered numerous questions
 people have posted on the mailing lists, and have e-mailed me.
 For the people I've helped my assistance has been far more valuable
 to them than any money that anyone has contributed to the project.
 
  Now, as for the Foundation's status as a charity:
 
 I'll start with asking you a simple question:  Setting aside the
 legal definitions, what in your mind IS a charity, exactly?
 
 Well, to a lot of people, a charity is simply a kind of accepted
 Robin Hood - it takes from the (willing) rich and gives to the
 poor and needy.
 
 But, this narrow definition isn't the dictionary definition of
 a charity, and it really isn't the general definition of a charity
 either.  For example, take the Catholic Church.  This is legally
 and in many people's eyes morally, a charity.  Yet, while Catholic
 churches run ministries that help the poor, the Catholic Church
 is by no means giving everything it has to the poor - it's accounted
 the wealthiest organization on the face of the Earth, for starters,
 and there are many thousands of projects that Catholics do that
 aren't ministering to the poor and needy, but rather projects
 that are for the public good that benefit the general public.
 
 My definition of a charity, and the dictionary definition of a
 charity, is that a charity is an organization that administers a
 pot of money and talent that they dole out to not just needy people, but
 to people and groups that do what you call Good Works - that is,
 benevolent projects that have as sole purpose the benefit of
 the general public - ie: us.
 
 So on to your question about why are we paying software developers?
 
 Well it's like

The FreeBSD Foundation

2004-12-22 Thread Troy Mills
I am not sure if this is really the proper place for this or if it has
been discussed however this is something that I'm sure deserves as
much exposure as possible.

As some of you may or may not know the FreeBSD Foundation supports the
FreeBSD developers financially via funds mainly from donations from
the public. Anyway there is a IRS 1/3rd test for public support
and the current foundation ratio that is a little out of whack due to
a few generous people donating large sums of money. I have no idea
what will happen if they cannot remain a public charity but I'm sure
the affects wont be positive as they clearly stated that it is in

from my understanding they need a larger number of people donating a
smaller amount to correct the ratio.

More information can be found on the freebsdfoundation.org website or
here is direct link to the newsletter:

p.s. I'm not affiliated with the foundation of FreeBSD in any shape or

help get the word out.

Re: Downloading FreeBSD

2004-10-05 Thread Troy Mills
The gain for dialup users would be indirect but ultimately everyone
would benefit. Those who chose to do CVSup and download ISOs from the
FTP server may see an indirect gain in speed as the bandwidth load
(from those downloading ISO's) would distributed to the people who
wish to help seed the torrent. It would obviously be a bigger help
around the time when new versions come out and the servers are being
hammered.

I'm not sure if that explanation was clear or not but it seems obvious
to me what the bonuses would be.

RE: HP Netserver RAID Controller + FreeBSD 4.10 problem

2004-08-20 Thread Troy Settle


I don't know if this is the right answer, but if you have to manually
specify the root partition, it's because the kernel can't find the root
partition to even read fstab.  I can't say that I've seen this before, or
even know how to overcome it.

Did this behavior also exist before you updated to STABLE?

BTW, I just did an install and an update to STABLE on very similar hardware
(MegaRAID 466), and it worked fine.  I also have an HP branded card, but
I've not used it in an install yet.

 Subject: HP Netserver RAID Controller + FreeBSD 4.10 problem
 
 
 Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
 
 I'd appreciate some help/clues on how to solve the following problem.
 
 I have acquired some 3 old-ish HP Netserver LH4r. They come with
 built-in RAID adapters.
 
 I have installed FreeBSD (well, that is the only one I could anyway),
 but I am hitting a snag: When I boot up the box, it refuses 
 to automount
 the root fs, then takes me to Manual Root File System 
 specification option.
 
 When I specify
 
 ufs:/dev/amrd0s1a then the box boots. What I don't understand 
 is why it
 is refusing to obey the same thing in fstab..
 
 My /etc/fstab contains the correct entries - /dev/amrd0s1{a|e|f} and I
 have even compiled a kernel with support for amr.
 
 I have three such boxes (God forbid if they all refuse to run 
 FreeBSD).
 
 
 Here is a dmesg output of what I am going through:

RE: Rackmount Server recommendation

 Hello,
 
 I'm looking for recommendations on vendor/hardware for a rackmount 
 server.  The intention is to run 4.9-STABLE and host e-commerce sites.
 
 Obviously, the vendor/hardware needs to support FreeBSD.  
 Specifically, 
 I'm looking for 4-6 hot-swappable SCSI RAID support.
 
 Thanks for your help.
 

Doug,

I've had two wonderful experiences with www.asacomputers.com.  Both were
nearly identical machines (save for the raid controller), one for FreeBSD,
the other for w2k server.  I'm getting ready to order a 3rd box from them in
order to deploy dialup accelleration.

Fuzzy out of focus console w/new flatscreen monitor on bootup

2003-12-29 Thread Troy
I am using GRUB to boot into Freebsd 4.9 Stable.

I recently purchased a new flatscreen monitor and when I boot up the
console appears to be very fuzzy.  

I installed the NVIDIA driver and put the proper settings into the
XF86Config and it's clear and in 1600x1200 for X windows.

While researching, I found that in Linux, folks have used a switch in
grub vga=795 when booting their kernel that gets the console to be much
clearer.

It doesn't appear that Freebsd supports that switch in grub.  Any way to
get the equiv switch so the console is clean?

Thanks,

php4 vs. mod_php4 - now mutually exclusive

2003-11-27 Thread Troy
Since the last update of php4 and mod_php4 in the ports directory, they
are now mutually exclusive whereas before I had both installed 
Currently, I have mod_php4-4.3.4.r1,1 and php4-4.3.4.r1 both installed.

Each port has been upgraded to 4.3.4_2,1 and 4.3.4_2 respectively

Most of the dependencies rely on php4-4.3.4.r1, but I have three ports
that are specifically asking for mod_php4:

geeklog-1.3.7.s.2
mnemo-1.1
nag-1.1

If I de-install mod_php4, will these three ports work with php4?

Anyone have any ideas?

Rack Recommendations

2003-06-15 Thread Troy
Hello,
Has anyone had any good experiences with rack equipment vendors, cases
motherboards and everything else, enough to recommend them? If so could you
recommend them to me? I just want some recommendations before starting to shell
out money.

Thanks,

Troy

Re: Adding a KVM, what should I be aware of?

2003-03-28 Thread Troy Ross
I'm using a IOGEAR MiniView 4 port usb kvmp switch model GCS1714.  It is 
a usb switch that emulates keyboard and mouse connections over usb. It 
works better than even plugging the usb mouse and keyboard directly into 
my FreeBSD box.  Works with all verstions of windows as well.  The only 
problem I've had relates to the ASUS nForce/nForce2 boards every so 
often they skrew up the usb bus on reboot.  They don't seem to reset the 
bus properly.  This happens about once every ten reboots.

Postfix 2.0.6 port without Kerberos DES linking?

2003-03-13 Thread Troy
Hello,
 
I'm running fbsd 4.8RC and trying to build postfix 2.0.6 and running
into a kerberos issue. I want to build postfix with cyrus-sasl2, TLS,
PCRE, and DB3 support.  No matter what I do, if I enable cyrus-sasl2
during the postfix build process, I receive the errors below.  I don't use
kerberos and don't want it to try and link to the des libraries.  I am
able to build the postfix 1.1.11-20021115 build without any problems.
It appears that sasl2 and TLS will not work using postfix 1.1.11.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello-
I just bought a new motherboard, the ASUS A7N8X (not deluxe). I want to use it

want to buy a new graphics card. My problem is i can't seem to fit the card in
the slot on the motherboard. I looked in the motherboard manual and it say it
supports 8x AGP pro video cards, but are these slots not backward compatible
with 4x AGP?
Thanks for any help or advice,

There are apparently 3 different types of standard agp slots and card 
edges: Universal, 1.5 and 3.3.  The universal cards and have 3 slits cut 
into the agp card edge the 3.3V old cards have a slit that is cut closer 
to the  monitor connector and the 1.5V cards have a slit cut closer to 
the 'back' of the card.  I think ATI has a good description on line. 
The Asus board in question specifically (as per the manual) only 
supports 1.5V cards.

Having a problem with BGE driver?

2003-02-21 Thread Troy
Hello,
I  have  a  quick  question  regarding  the  BGE  Gigabit Driver.  I have a 
3com
3C966B-T  NIC  and  the  driver  will  initialize the card and I can ping 
and be
pinged   however,   when  trying  to use samba, either connecting to or 
from the
FreeBSD  box,  the connection will always fail.  Take down the box put in a 
3com
3C905CXTXM  and it works fine.  Does this driver just not work with this 
card or
is there something more simple that I am not seeing.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Troy

Re: Max. file size for msdos partition

How large a file can I create on a FAT32 msdos partition with FreeBSD Stable?

I would have expected to be able to create a 4GB-2 file, but seem to be 
limited to 2GB-1. Is there such a limit and, if not, any idea why I am unable 
to create a really large file? Is this a bug?

I did make a 4GB file by appending 2GB-1 onto a 2GB-1 file, but I can't seem 
to do much with this file.

Thanks,
 

A month or so ago I asked a similar question only I was having 
difficulty just reading a file  2GB on a NTFS partition.  Which brings 
me to my question is there a file system that can store files greater 
than 2GB and that can be read from and written to in both windows 2k/xp 
and FreeBSD?

access to files 2GB from NTFS

2003-01-14 Thread Troy Ross
Hello,
   I have lots of home video type avi files which I captured from a dv 
camera under windows 2k.  I would like to use tools such as mencoder to 
reencode these files to something like divx or mpeg2.  Unfortunately, 
every time I begin an encoding process for a file larger than 2GB the 
encoder prematurely exits.  First I assumed I wasn't using mencoder 
correctly, but then I attemped to copy a file from the ntfs partition to 
/usr/tmp the file was trunicated at just under 2GB.   I tried the same 
experiment on several files and the results were the same.  Is there 
some system variable I need to set which allows large files or is this a 
limitation of the ntfs code?  I'm currently running 4.7-Stable with a 
fairly recent world/kernel  1 month.
Thanks,
Troy
