Re: ttys file question
But I can not connect to my server with this configuration. But if I change ttyu6 to cuau6, everything works fine! I don't understand the difference, would you please explain the reason for me? In short the tty devices are for outgoing connections, the cua devices are for incoming connections. For more detail see sio(4), after all the detail about multi-port serial cards and their master ports comes a couple of paragraphs describing the devices associated with each serial port in detail. -- Steve O'Hara-Smith st...@sohara.org Thanks. Another question is how can I change the default values of e.g. databits, stopbits and ... for the device?

Re: using AWK
Hi Jack, HI How can I read a file which contains a number and assign that number to a variable via awk programming? By the way, I want to use this awk program in a shell script. I'm actually not sure what you're asking, exactly -- you want the number to go into an awk variable? Or a shell variable? Yes, I want the number to go into an awk variable. Assuming you want it to go into an awk variable, I would try something like this: getline my_number filename; close filename; That assumes the filename is stored in the variable named filename. It puts the number in the awk variable named my_number. To put that in context, let's say you're getting the filename from $0, and you want to multiply the number by 2 and print it. You might do: filename = $0; getline my_number filename; close filename; print my_number * 2; Or if I completely misinterpreted your question, let me know :-) ~Ben This is what i wrote: #! /bin/sh filename=$0 awk 'getline no filename; print no' But when I run this script sh /awk_no.sh /var/no.txt I have this error : awk: syntax error at source line 1 context is getline no filename; print no awk: bailing out at source line 1 Thank you :) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

RE: ATA trouble again
Hello. This is a follow-up of a previous thread, which can be found here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2011-July/232257. html I finally have two working WD Green drives: they have run severel times for more than a few days continuosly and I've run their full diags a few times over a span of some weeks, so I think I can be sure of that. Still I experience lot of troubles; however, trying different boxes, I found out that these depend heavily on the controller I use. Hi Andrea, I don’t know if this will help you or not, but it may lead you to another possibility. I had a similar problem on my box (I was running 9.0-Current and Now 10.0-Current). I was also running under ZFS and would get TONS of Errors across my SATA drives. The errors would be anything from time-outs to physical locking of the drive (I would have to pull the drive to let the PHY on the controller reset and then plug the drive back in before it would communicate with the machine again). In particular this would happen when I was doing large writes to the drives. Read performance also suffered. I then created a single drive pool and did a large transfer to the drive (about 800Gb) and the controller timed out again. I moved the drive to various ports on the machine and also various controllers in the machine. Some seemed to exabate the problem quicker but no port or drive was safe from this. I later found out that the drives I was using were using 4096 Bytes per sector. When I recreated the zpool using 4096 byte sectors All the timeout errors disappeared and my data-rate has climbed Dramatically. Are you using ZFS or do you know if the drives are using 4096 bytes Per sector?

openldap 2.4.23 exited on signal 6
Hi all, I am experiencing the same problem below. Do you have a solution for this? I am running on FreeBSD 8.1. - Hi list, I'm experiencing some problems with and LDAP box which used to run 2.4.21 and has been upgraded to 2.4.22 The box act as a pam_ldap/nsswitch login server for a bunch of boxes, let's say 20, and serve the mail server and web proxy server as a user base. The box has 2G of RAM and has an average load very low, let's say top/systat shows 0.40. The issue is that it happens from time to time every 2/4 days that the slapd daemon exits on signal 6: May 12 01:00:00 polido kernel: pid 27153 (slapd), uid 389: exited on signal 6 Then i restart the process everything looks fine and no corruption seems to happen in the DB.

RE: httpd-modsec2_debug.log: Operation not permitted
... I believe rm (-f) still requires *SOME* free space on a device to delete something. That being said, do you have more then 50G free elsewhere on the system? Say /home (/usr/home)? If you do, mv the file from /var/log to /usr/home. This would effectively delete it from /var/log and free up it's space ... Er, had you considered that mv, when the target and source are on different filesystems, does a cp followed by an rm? If rm requires free space -- which I very much doubt on UFS unless a snapshot exists -- the rm step of the mv is going to run into exactly the same problem that the standalone rm runs into. If this is the case, what about just using truncate to set the file size to zero? truncate -s 0K httpd-modsec2_debug.log Or cat /dev/null httpd-modsec2_debug.log Best regards, Peg ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: reliable rs-232
On Saturday 10 April 2010 13:41:33 Grzegorz Daniluk wrote: Hi everybody, I have a question regarding rs-232 under FreeBSD. I need to write an application for FreeBSD to operate an industrial controller via rs-232. The trick is that it should have very good long term stability (reliably operation over years). It should be able to detect and correct (e.g by reconfiguration of rs-232 port parameters) when rs-232 hangs or changes its transmission parameters as a result of electrical interference/disturbances etc. First thought is to simply close and reopen rs-232 port every given time interval, so even if something 'strange' happens the failure would be fixed after finite time period. But maybe there is smarter way of doing that. Maybe some special fault-tolerant rs-232 kernel drivers ? Any help appreciated, maybe someone has other helpful advieces regarding reliable rs-232 programming ini general ? Hi Grzegorz, I dont think you are going to find anything that is classified as fault tolerant RS-232. My experience with 232 in industrial environments has been met with various levels of success. In small controlled conditions it works OK, but you are limited to speed and distance. Further, the single ended nature of 232 and the high input impedance of the receivers make it not the best choice for electrical interference rejection. If you have control of the electrical specifications, you might be better off using RS-422 as it is designed differentially and with a low impedance, so it works well in electrically nasty environments. All the better if you can opto-isolate the line drivers/receivers on the transmission line side of the interface. In one application, I designed a RS-232 to fibre-optic interface using S/Pdif transceivers and a 555 as a PWM generator/detector. This worked wonderfully for electrical isolation between the PC and the CNC motion controller I was interfacing to. I have seen similar things sold as a ready made brick that you could just plug in and use. Making the machine and PC Fail to a safe condition is not something you should design into the rs-232 interface directly, in my opinion. You should have a upper layer protocol bouncing between the two points and if this protocol times-out, then you should assume the interface of the remote device has failed and take action in your software (on both sides). In the case of the fibre connection, I added in addition to the protocol checks, a carrier detect circuit where if the link failed between the two machines, it dropped out a relay that was wired to the E-Stop circuit. I hope some of this is helpfull...

SSL / SSH choosing hardware accelerator first
Hello group, I am currently running FreeBSD 9-Current AMD64. I have a Hifn crypto accelerator installed in the machine. I have noticed that when I connect to the machine using SSH, it does not use the crypto hardware. There was a patch that someone made that forced SSL to use the hardware by default, but I was wondering if there was a way to do this in userland/configuration? It would be nice to have the hardware accelerated cryptography used as first priority before deciding to use the software emulated modes. Does anyone know how this can be done?

It may be that they need their dependencies (BUILD_DEPENDS, RUN_DEPENDS, etc.) changed to reflect the new version of Firefox.

Re: Spamassassin very slow
Thanks james. I thought before that spamc on .procmailrc handle checking mail for outgoing (mail from local user) and milter in sendmail handle incoming mail checking.

That's pretty redundant and would definately slow you down. Choose one based on your needs. I also have RulesDuJour installed and spammassassin --lint does complain about it. Extra rules can slow you down regardless of syntax, but most computers created this decade can handle RulesDuJour fine. Personally I think your main problem is that your effectively spam checking every message twice.

For instance cyrus-imap. There you can set quota limits, warning messages to users, percentages and so on. This is the easiest approach.

Re: quota and sendmail accepts 10k mail size
Hi Derek, It is good to hear from you. You are right about sendmail has only global option to limit mail size. However, my company wants to have 20meg mbox space per user. If the User exceeds, he/she should not recieved any mail. So, I use system quota to prevent sendmail from writing to mbox of a user which is under quota.Sendmail should bounce the mail and reply to sender with this kind of error: - The following addresses had permanent fatal errors - [EMAIL PROTECTED] (reason: 550 5.0.0 output error) Here is my configs: I enable quota to /var and /home filesystem /dev/ipsd0s1f /home ufs rw,userquota 2 2 /dev/ipsd0s1d /var ufs rw,userquota 2 2 # qouta -v user.underquota Disk quotas for user user.underquota (uid 1333): Filesystem usage quota limit grace files quota limit grace /home 210 20480 20480 11 0 0 /var 62960* 20480 20480 none 1 0 0 As you can see here, user.underquota already exceeded the limit (soft and hard). If I try to send a mail to this user more than 13k mail size, sendmail cannot write to this mbox (since mbox of a user is located in /var/mail) and will reply with an error message. At first I thought it was working, however, when i try to send 10k, 7k, 5k or less mail size, sendmail can write to user.underquota mbox. User file permition: #ls -l -rw-rw 1 user.underquota mail 64413589 Jul 8 09:54 user.underquota So, what do you think? Do i missed some config? or this is a bug? Thank you.

quota and sendmail accepts 10k mail size
Greetings, I setup my mail server on freebsd7.0R and it is working great! However, I have a problem on quota. It suppose to block any incoming message to specific user which is under quota. But sendmail can still send to the user under quota if the mail size is ~ less than 10k. Quota only works when the mail size is greater than 13k. Is there any way to correct this problem? Please help. By the way, i disable the grace period via quota.h. #define MAX_IQ_TIME (0) /* seconds in 1 week */ #define MAX_DQ_TIME (0) /* seconds in 1 week */ And my mail users authenticate via ldap.
