Re: no libphp5.so
You should just install it from the ports. As root, type: cd /usr/ports/lang/php5 make all install clean Be sure to check the APACHE option to build the Apache module. You'll probably also want to install some of the extensions from /usr/ports/lang/php5-extensions and /usr/ports/www/php-session.

I cannot say that that is THE cause, but whatever it was re installing solved it. I did not get any responses so there is no one in particular to thank but thanks all, FreeBSD is free software and what works is far greater in volume and value than what does not Now if only we could get to the developers of the human (user level) mind, maybe we could debug that and be better off.

ASUS M2n - AMD64 supported by FreeBSD 6.2?
Dear list, i am currently deciding on hardware for a server at home which will manage my email (Mailtoaster), website, dns, dhcp and samba. It will replace 2 boxes. The load is currently average 0.4 on a Dual Pentium 3 800mhz (thats the old mailserver - FreeBSD 5.4) and the other is just a windows 2003 file/ad/dns server. So no need for a lot of muscle. I don't want to buy the bleeding edge and not the most expensive stuff. I want reliable equipment which also doesnt generate a lot of heat and noise. (Picky, i know ;-) ) At the moment I have come up with the following: * Asus M2N with nVidia NForce 430 chipset * AMD Athlon 64 X2 EE 3800+ * 2 Gigabyte of memory (DDR2 800mhz) * Adaptec 390320D SCSI for systemdisks (3 x U320 15k drives (got these spare - better use them) * 4 x 500GB SATA 2 drives from Western Digital (Raid 5) I got the following questions; Question 1: is the SATA2 Raid 5 setup supported for the Nvidia 430 chipset? In my searches in basically all lists of Freebsd it seems there were issues reported? Question 2: Is the Hostraid functionality of the Adaptec card supported by FreeBSD? For windows boxes additional software is required, will it be supported out of the box by FreeBSD? Question 3: Nvidia Nforce5 is this supported by FreeBSD 6.2 and will I be able to build a RAID 5 set and use this in FreeBSD? I have seen emails in lists which show issues. Of course any suggestions regarding hardware is also appreciated. Many thanks for allowing me to use your bandwidth!

Re: Which version of BIND to use on FreeBSD 6.1?
I think I'll rephrase my question. What real advantage is there for me running BIND 9 over BIND 8? Version 9 seems to require a lot more memory and is still giving me this really annoying problem of using all my CPU time when it hits the max_cache_size. I'm not using DNSSEC or IPV6...

BIND 9.3.2 on FreeBSD 6.1-release-p2

PIDUID THR PRI NICE SIZERES STATETIME WCPU COMMAND 60480 53 1 1320 195M 194M RUN 41.7H 75.54% named After restarting it, its CPU usage goes back down to what it should be, as does its memory usage.

make.conf FreeBSD 6.2 RC1
Hi, I've recently installed 6.2-Beta3 and got KDE working with Xorg.

Re: networking question.
This is more a windows problem and specific more a WINS/NETBios/name resolution problem. Do you got a dns server? Some kind of domain? What I understand from your story the following happens: Client queries on netbios level; who is \\computername to the masterbrowser list, can't find on local subnet, hence not found. Broadcasts don't travel beyond own subnet unless otherwise configured. What you should do is either connect via \\ip\share or get yourself some kind of AD DNS or a WINS Server and tell your clients to use WINS/DNS for name resolution. Then it should work.

Hi, Scott! Ok guys, time for a small breather here. All these claims about EoE and orphanage and whatnot are a bit premature and underinformed. I only stated that according to ICP Vortex Germany the GDT products are EOE and ICP Vortex will not provide an updated driver for FreeBSD. Nothing more. I talked to the person on the phone right before I sent my mail to the list. And that orphanage part depended on a big IF nobody is willing to work on it. Regards, Patrick M.

ICP Vortex will not provide capacity to update their own driver for FreeBSD 6. The new products will feature full FreeBSD support, eventually. (couple of weeks, he said) Technically, the ICP guy was quite confident, that ICP's own driver for FreeBSD 4.x and 5.x didn't show the problems we have on FreeBSD 6 with the FreeBSD iir driver. He recommended using ICP's driver source as a reference when trying to fix the FreeBSD 6 driver. I'm not a kernel developer so I cannot really comment on this. HTH, Patrick M.

Re: iir(4) driver (Was: Re: Safe card to replace for ICP Vortex GDT851...)
Hello! 'k, just to clarify here ... the new products won't be based on the iir(4) driver then? Yes, they won't. Basically, should the iir(4) driver be considered EOE also? As far as Adaptec and ICP Vortex are concerned, yes. Since the driver is Open Source, there is no enforced EOE, just orphanage, if nobody is willing to work on it. Regards, Patrick M.

Promise Technology RAID Controller
Hey all, I was looking at getting a hardware RAID controller (that supports RAID 5) for my system and I saw the FastTrak SX4100 from Promise Technology.

Re: Promise Technology RAID Controller
I did not see it listed and afaik there is no official support. The nearest thing I saw was a manual entry on ataraid from quite a while back suggesting that RAID 5 wasn't supported, but I was wondering if anyone had managed to get any success with the card (since from my understanding ataraid is for OS controlled RAID and I'm looking at a hardware/firmware controller). Also, I did forget to mention that the system in question is FreeBSD 6.1 and I'm looking to boot off of this array (although if anyone was a working system that won't boot from the array I'm still interested).

Security Run Output E-mail
I'm relatively ne to FreeBSD (~6 months of usage) and I have been administering my own system for approximately the last 2 months. Recently my system has received many ssh login attempts on standard user accounts as someone has been attempting to break into my system. I usually read the Security Run Output e-mails to see if the attacker(s) had made any headway, and took necessary precautions (limiting ssh logins etc). However, last week (after it seemed that the attacks had let up somewhat) I stopped receiving the e-mails (as well as the daily run output e-mails). I still read the auth.log file to see login information and it did not appear as though anyone had successfully managed to break into the system. Today the both sets of e-mails started again and I received the e-mails for today and yesterday (I am still missing 5 days worth and one weekly run output). I was wondering if anyone might know how to ensure that I continue to receive these e-mails without interrupti on. If it matters (and I suspect it does) I have all my root e-mails aliased to a locked, nologin dummy account that forwards e-mail to my account, my boss' account, and retains a copy in the dummy account (.forward was not working to forward root's mail). Root's mail client is set to read the dummy account inbox as well as anything that somehow winds up in the regular root mailbox. This setup worked fine until the e-mails stopped last week (none of the listed accounts received the e-mail). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. --Patrick ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: jail login and replication problems
Hi Dan, Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I've had the exact same problem, and have tried various different things to resolve it... all to no avail.

Re: quota and /var/mail
If you want to only have one set of quotas, you might consider switching to a Postfix/Maildir setup where your users' inboxes will be located in their home folder rather than in /var/mail. It's a fairly easy switch: install Postfix from /usr/ports/mail/postfix, and then you just need to configure one line in your Postfix's main.cf to turn on Maildir support: http://www.postfix.org/faq.html#maildir Though, there might be a bit of a learning curve with respect to the differences between Sendmail and Postfix to convert the rest of your configuration over. It all depends on how complicated your current setup is.

If you have /var/mail as a subdirectory of /var than do it on /var.

If you're already inside a jail, then IMHO it is a little overkill (i.e. Running BIND in a chroot inside a jail). Check the BIND related values in rc.conf(5). The chroot(8) startup is triggered via this one: named_chrootdir=/var/named# Chroot directory (or not to auto-chroot it) So try setting it to named_chrootdir= and it should disable the chroot code from the startup script. Of course, if you still need to chroot(8) your named(8) install inside your jail, then you're at the same point. Consider running another jail perhaps? Or use BIND's view feature.

Re: getting a user's home dir (sed/awk?)

Kernel mixup after dump/restore
List; I have a slice on ad0s1 mounting the root FS from ad0s2a, and vice-verse. Here's what I did. 1. Started out with a 20 Gig drive with two equal slices, ad0s1 (blank) and ad0s2 (FreeBSD). 2. Used sysinstalls fdisk and bsdlabel to create /, /var, /tmp, and /usr partitions on ad0s1 equal in size to those on ad0s2. 3. Used the following command to copy partitions from ad0s2 to ad0s1; dump -L -0 -f- /usr | (cd /mnt/hd/usr; restore -r -v -f-) /usr is on ad0s2 and /mnt/hd/usr is ad0s1. 4. Changed /mnt/hd/etc on ad0s1 to mount partitions on ad0s1, rather than ad0s2. 5. Used grub to boot either to ad0s1 or ad0s2. When I boot the first slice (ad0s1), df(1) shows all the partitions to be ad0s1, except root, which is ad0s2. When I boot the second slice (ad0s2), df(1) shows all partitions to be ad0s2, except root, which is ad0s1. Can anyone explain this behaviour, and why it might have happened?

In fact, I have the cannot open error for a normal truss usage, and if I repeat the truss command very fast, I got the second error (PIOCWAIT: Input/output error).

Re: Jail cloning problem
So is it a repairable permissions issue, or is it something that I could never fix? The jail wasn't built on its own filesystem, and because I don't have a spare drive to do that, I'm hoping that there is some way possible to make cloning work using tar.

Re: Jail cloning problem
Whoops, that's something I should have mentioned. :) I'm on FreeBSD 4.11.

Which version of FreeBSD? 5.x and onward use devfs and not MAKEDEV; perhaps your device nodes aren't being created correctly?

Trouble accessing da-devices on Supermicro X6DH8-G2
Hi guys (and girls?), I have an interesting yet frustating problem trying to get FreeBSD to access a logical drive/lun's on a raid array. Let me describe the system first. The server has a Supermicro X6DH8-G2 mainboard. This thing has an on-board Adaptec AIC-7902 controller (ahd) which we are not using. Other cards installed, on a riser, are a LSILogic MegaRAID SCSI 320-1 and a Qlogic 2300 fibre channel adapter. The Qlogic has a raid array attached which shows up during post and syncs nicely at 2 Gb. The logical volumes created with the Megaraid can be accessed just fine, even though they don't show up with camcontrol. The lun's on the raid array simply don't show up anywhere. However when I go into the QL menu upon boot I can 'see' the lun's so that indicates there is no problem with the hardware and/or link. I've tried everything from changing irq's (didn't work, the two mentioned cards keep sharing the same no matter what I do with device.hints etc.), different FreeBSD versions, to taking the Megaraid out of the system. No dice. I cannot help but think there is something about this mainboard that messes up the CAM subsystem (the volumes on the Lsilogic show up as amrd* so I guess that thing does it's own magic and doesn't need CAM?). I don't mind if FreeBSD cannot work with this combination of hardware but I'd like to be sure that that's the problem. Any pointers/suggestions are welcome :) Do let me know what additional info could be useful here. For now I've put up dmesg and pciconf output here: http://home.caiw.nl/~pviersel/freebsd/ . The system is currently running 5.4 STABLE/amd64 with a generic kernel. The only change in the kernel is that I've taken out the ahd driver. Please cc me if you reply (I use the digest version of the mailinglist).

Routing problem?
Ok, here´s the deal I have my Freebsd 4.10 gateway/nat/firewall on my network. On my LAN i have couple WIN machines and a Linux Redhat machine working ok to outside and other machine´s with IP 192.168.255.252 eth0 I have one software running on Redhat Machine that uses SLIP and i have configured sl0 with 192.168.255.252 P-t-P 192.168.0.6 The 192.168.0.6 is the IP of that Software Ok with these configurations i can connect from my Linuxbox locally to the software with 192.168.0.6 But the 192.168.0.6 Does´nt appear to be available for other computers on my LAN So i checked out some manuals and used command: ARP -Ds 192.168.0.6 sl0 pub and 92.168.0.6 came visible to other computers on my LAN. So now i thought that all i have to do is to put on my BSDBOX natd.confto redirect all requests from 23 and 81 to 192.168.0.6 right? and allow of course ports from Firewall (My software with the SLIP has entrance via HTTP and TELNET) Well nobody can´t still connect to my Linux software from outside?From my LAN it´works ok. I tried also adding allow ip from any to 192.168.0.6 via ep0 and that worked for a while (now anybody from outside can connect to my software) It works only for couple hours and the no response? I´cant understand how the allow ip from any to 192.168.0.6 can help. Well if anyone has understood what i´m trying to do here and wants to send couple hints i would be glad. :-) Thanks for your reply. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Zyxel Prestige ADSL
Hello i have Zyxel Prestige 623R-T1 ADSL modem There is no NAT or other DHCP services running on the modem. Access via http address 192.168.1.1 When i plug it into my Windows machine everything works. Well i want to of course use my Freebsd machine wich is my NATD / Firewall box for my LAN. I do not want to use the ADSL modem for NAT. With another ADSL modem (it´s rental and now i want my own Zyxel to work) everything works ok. My outer ethernet card get´s its IP from ISP. But with zyxel no. INET 0.0.0.0 ?When i plug Zyxel to Windows everything works. I do not understand? Thanks in advance.

Re: php/apache/ssl core dumps
Hi Ruben, I have been experiencing the same thing, both by using the ports and by building manually from source. I prefer to build from source, as I find the ports tree to be a bit difficult to use when it comes to the way it handles PHP stuff. At any rate, I solved my problem by not building mod_ssl as a shared module. Statically compiled, I no longer get the crashes. Perhaps the ports tree has an option to build mod_ssl this way...

Using cvsup + make world, and keeping custom patches
I recently had a need to patch the FreeBSD's jail utility to support multiple IP addresses. On a recent make update using cvsup, my patched versions of the jail files were blown away, and now I'll need to reapply the patches. Does anyone have a good strategy for including some custom patches when doing a make update in /usr/src?

Forwarding external-bound packets internally with ipfw
I have a few servers, and I'd like to force secondary servers to deliver mail to the primary via a private network (each server is dual-homed). Mail would be deemed local (destined for my LAN) by specifying a bunch of CIDRs. I would like to accomplish this using ipfw's forwarding support, but I am having a problem getting the rule right. I first tried using ipfw forward, but after reading the man page in greater detail, it seems like this likely won't work. My next thought is to use ipfw's divert functionality in conjunction with natd, but it is not clear to me how I could tell natd to forward to the correct internal server using the redirect_port option. Ideally, I would like to maintain only one list of IP blocks. Additionally, it seems like natd wants you define a rule per IP, which will get to be rather annoying when dealing with hundreds of IPs that could easily be classified using a mask. An example of what I want to do follows: Server A: public IPs: 1.2.3.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.1 Server B: public IPs: 2.3.4.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.2 Server C: public IPs: 3.4.5.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.3 When Server B accepts mail destined for Server A, I would like it to route through 192.168.0.1 rather than the public IP. The same goes for if Server C accepts mail for Server A or B using the respective internal IP. This isn't really relevant, but I'm using Postfix as my mailer. It does have an option to force a relay_host, but it will not let you differentiate destinations. This works fine with two hosts on the network, but not for three or more. Any ideas of how I could accomplish this?
