Hello Matthew,
I'm trying to download section 2 and section 1 for freebsd commands and
system calls
? Is there a specific manpage that you are missing? A cursory glance
shows that these sections are populated:
sh -c 'cd /tmp ; for i in a b c d e f g ; do fetch -ampv
http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/8.2-RELEASE/manpages/manpages.a${i};

manpages82 -xvf manpages.tar.gz; ls manpages82/usr/share/man/man[12]'

IIRC the old device sio in the kernel config was changed to uart. Make sure you have this and note the corresponding serial port renaming that accompanied the change.

Re: download cvsup?
thanks for the suggestion! but the other machines on this network do not use the FreeBSD machine as a router. They merely reference it as their first choice of DNS servers. So as of now networking is good to go for all machines. best!!

That was the next thing I was about to suggest. His FIOS router should be
running DNS itself by default, with it pointing to Verizon's name servers.
So he could try using 192.168.1.1 in his named.conf forwarders directive.
This would just recurse out to Verizon's name servers and should get a basic
external resolution going, provided he has not altered the default router
setup.
Example from mine: (don't just cut and paste but adjust as required)
options {

dump-file /var/dump/named_dump.db;

The first two IP addresses in my forwarders clause are for OpenDNS. You
could delete them so as to only have 192.168.1.1 and your FreeBSD's DNS
server will then forward requests to your FIOS router which will then
request from Verizon. Use of the listen-on and allow-recursion is not
necessary, but if you decide to utilize make sure they reflect values which
apply to your situation. Do rndc reload or reboot to take effect.
I think he has some other issues pending as well, but one thing at a time.

Also the rest of the network is currently working. I am writing this
to you from another machine on the same network as the bsd machien.
Even with IPv6 enabled things should still function even though IPv6 may not
actually be in use. Sometimes it happens with DNS lookups it will try
looking for an record first [IPv6], then time out and fall back to the
normal IPv4 A record. This will just show as a short wait period and
ultimately eventually resolves.
I suspect that you are not even getting this far and the problem is
something else. Just for the sake of simplifying things you could eliminate
IPv6 from the picture if you are truly not using it. However, I do not think
it is actually the cause (I could always be wrong here).
[snip - forgetting about csup and ports for now]
Not sure how this might have cause this but I edited my fstab file
with some nfs mounts like so:
192.168.1.44:/mnt/nas/mnt/nas nfs
rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr
192.168.1.44:/mnt/store /mnt/store nfs
rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr
192.168.1.44:/mnt/home /home nfs
rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr
This truly has me confused. In the above ifconfig output it is showing an IP
address assigned of 192.168.1.44 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255.
What I do not understand at all is why you would be wanting to NFS mount
from 192.168.1.44 *to* 192.168.1.44, as indicated by the above fstab
entries.
Again, for the sake of simplification with divide and conquer, make sure all
mountd, rpcbind, nfs_server, and nfs_client daemons are deactivated.
Eliminate all things superfluous to troubleshooting the DNS problem. Once
DNS gets fixed you can add stuff back one at a time.
And when I rebooted the host pretty much it all went haywire! LDAP,
DNS, Apache, MySQL, and even ALL NETWORKING which normally started
with the host stopped working. I now have to start each one by hand
whatever I try I can't seem to resolve external hosts, tho.
So I restored the fstab file from backup and still I am stuck not
resolving.
Yes - leave fstab with no remote mounting/NFS stuff for now.
/etc/resolv.conf looks ok to me so I would think I that I could ping
out of the network. Sadly this is not the case!
You should be able to ping by IP any/all machines within your local network.
Sounds like this does work, but confirm and don't 'assume'. Next try and
ping by IP to a host out on the Internet. Since you cannot resolve any names
here is the IP to www.netbsd.org: 204.152.190.12. If you cannot ping by
IP out from your network to the outside you do not have basic gateway
connectivity working. If this is the case it will have to get fixed first.

If you are attempting this from the same machine as you are running BIND on,
it might be better for it's resolv.conf to look like this instead:
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 192.168.1.1
192.168.1.1 is my FIOS router which has it's own DNS server. It is also
pointed at the same OpenDNS servers as my forwarders directive (a snippet
from my named.conf below:)
listen-on { 127.0.0.1; 192.168.10.1; };
allow-recursion {127.0.0.1; 192.168.10.0/24;};
forwarders {
208.67.222.222; 208.67.220.220; 192.168.1.1;
};
My local DNS on my gateway/firewall box is a hybrid which only has zones for
my local .test.zip 192.168.10.0/24 LAN. All other requests get forwarded out
and cached. Here is what sockstat -4l looks like on this box:

You need to fix this first, then worry about why the DNS is not working. Start with simple things such as substituting a known good cable from a working machine. Examine the LEDs on both the NIC and the hub/switch. Usually these will not be lit if there is no link. Is the hub/switch defective? Or locked up? I've seen hubs and switches lock up and a power cycle would make them operate again, for a while. Hubs or switches that lock up have an intermittent defect and should not be depended upon for the long run. Verify if you are using the correct driver. What version is the OS? Search bug reports and mail lists for known issues, e.g. such as someone else reported a problem with quite similar symptoms and the devs have already addressed it in HEAD and possibly MFC'd it to STABLE. Of course, if there is a fix you can't get at it until your network works. But you can also back up the train and tell us things like: did it used to work? and what did you do, or change, that made it begin not working? Some more details might give the 'fresh set of eyes' more to work with.

I only see disk1 for 8.0, where are the rest? Disc1 is all you need to install the OS. The other disk images contain mostly precompiled 3rd party packages -- I think the reason that disk2 and disk3 got dropped was that even the size of two CD images is just a fraction of what it would take to contain most of the available ports. Rather than make an invidious choice (accompanied, no doubt, by interminable arguments and bikeshedding) about what should be included, they decided to reserve the .iso images for FreeBSD and let people download individual pkgs from the FTP sites instead. Cheers, Matthew PS. Just to make sure: you do understand that the i386 arch is for all Intel and AMD processors running in *32bit* mode? If you've got a more modern Intel Xeon or Core2 or later processor (or indeed anything AMD since about 5 years ago), then the amd64 arch will give you better results. As the name suggests, this is the *64bit* version of FreeBSD for Intel derived architectures. Take care to choose the right alternative before you put much work into building your system, as switching from one to the other is pretty painful. - -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate Kent, CT11 9PW -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.14 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkvxc1QACgkQ8Mjk52CukIyYNwCaAhrJdo55JC9QpBCqnmJ/IKYF 2RkAoJQmTueg9NkYGu58XW5Rm93wibFj =0j2o -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ 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

Thanks Jerry I had a reply that I should rather use 8.0 and there I can only download disk1, the rest I can get from the ports collection. (I'm not sure that I can download all 2GB of the DVD successfully, our bandwidth in SA is not great or very reliable) We want to use freeBSD to setup NAS, do I need any of the ports to do this? I'm not looking at freeNAS because the SATA RAID card that I'm looking at does not support it, the Adaptec 51645 card supports freeBSD though.

Looking at the work that has been put into making FreeNAS, it might be worthwhile to ask the developers when a version based on 8.x and supporting your card will be available. But if that is not an option, looking at the features of FreeNAS [http://freenas.org/features], I'd say you need _at least_ the following ports to more-or-less replicate the functionality of FreeNAS; Network protocols: - net/samba34 (for windows clients) - net/netatalk (for Apple clients) - ftp/proftpd (FTP) - net/rsync - net/unison - (NFS comes with the base system) - dns/inadyn - net/istgt Extra Services - net-p2p/transmission (bittorrent) - net/mediatomb (UPnP server) - audio/firefly (iTunes/DAAP) - www/lighttpd or www/apache22 (web server) System tools - sysutils/smartmontools (disk monitoring) - sysutils/rsyslog55 (secure remote logging) - ports-mgmt/portmaster (keeping ports up to date) - (portsnap comes with the base system.) - (sshd comes with the base system.) What you'll be missing is the FreeNAS web setup tools. I would download and install FreeNAS on a virtual machine just to look at the configurations for the different ports, so you don't have to figure that out all by yourself. :-) On the other hand, if you only have to serve files for MS Windoze clients, you might get by with installing samba and its dependencies and not much else. Anything that you don't install is one less item to configure and keep up-to-date.

It doesn't work. I am still getting ~10KB/s speed.
hmm in some FBSD (6.0-STABLE) that we have in NL i have that set to 64K . From
AU (where I live), 320 ms of ping away, i can almost saturate my meagre DSL
link (got up to 2mpbs).
There can be several things involved in bad download speeds - from the TCP
stack of the OS , the software you use to serve (I'm assuming Apache is
configured out of the box - it's not great, but should be better than this.),
NIC in the server, the network segment where it's located (in the DC,
upstream,etc), bandwidth limiting upstream or in apache itself,etc...
.I tested that download of yours from different parts of the world, it was
pretty bad from everywhere - I've captured the traffic from each download:
http://www.meijome.net/files/freebsd/test_hk_dl/fbsd_hk_test_from_au.cap
From AU , between 204 and 206 ms ping.
http://www.meijome.net/files/freebsd/test_hk_dl/fbsd_hk_from_NL.cap
Your file in HK downloaded from NL - ping time to HK = 329 ms
http://www.meijome.net/files/freebsd/test_hk_dl/fbsd_hk_from_txusa.cap
Your file in HK, downloaded from a linux server (RHES 3) in TX, USA. ping time
avg 227.
http://www.meijome.net/files/freebsd/test_hk_dl/fbsd_NL_test_from_au.cap
the same file, which I uploaded to a FBSD in NL (as mentioned above). Ping time
is about 320 ms to this box from home. Probably as fast as I'd expect it to be.
I know I can transfer about up of 8 Mbps between the USA and NL hosts, so
that test is not going to prove anything more.
I haven't got time right now to review all the captures, but at first sight it
seems there's more packet loss than you'd expect, duped ACKs,etc. The IO , RTT
and throughpouts graphs (i'm using wireshark) definitely show very poor
performance, though.
I dont see any relation betwen ping times and download speed.
BTW, how fast can you download this file from the server you say it's in the
same network segment ?
Have you got polling enabled?
what hardware / nic ?

I was wondering if your company/team/crew have disabled it. Neither the operating system itself nor its download sites have been disabled for any noticeable length of time, if ever. The files needed to install FreeBSD have to the best of my knowledge been available continuously from the moment the respective versions were released. The description is a little short on details, so any suggestions from here are pure guesswork. Off the top of my head, - did the download complete? The size of a typical release ISO CD image file is likely to be in the 550 to 650 megabytes range, and could take considerable time if you are on a skinny line or downloading from somewhere distant network-wise. The Handbook lists a number of mirror sites which could be closer to your location than the primary site at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html - if the download did complete, what did you download and what did you do with it? Assuming you downloaded an ISO image, you would need to burn the file as an image, not a file, to a suitable CD medium. If you opted for the floppy images, you would need to follow the procedure outlined in the install docs to create a usable set. Installing by letting the installer fetch packages as needed could be time consuming as well, depending on your line speed and network conditions between your location and the chosen installation source. I suppose the most sensible thing to do is first to try to locate a user group or other friendly FreeBSD people in your area. People on this list should be able to provide pointers. I suppose even people not in your area should be able to burn you an install CD and mail it to you if that is what you need to get started. -- Peter N. M.

Sorry, you're right - you want 'make -k fetch BATCH=yes' (the variable is to avoid any interaction from things like config dialogs). You might be able to get away with using -j for concurrent fetches too, although there's a possibility of corrupting a distfile if two ports that share the same distfile fetch it at once.

Re: Download contents of http directory?
If the admin does allow downloading, you will simply see the list by typing the path to the directory in the url you wish to look at. For example, lets say that you have a directory /music/ . If the webserver has directory listings on, you can simply type http://www.mydomain.com/music/ and it will automatically generate a list of all the files and return it to the viewer as an html page with hyperlinks. This behavior exists in most webservers including apache and IIS. Personally, I always turn it off. If i want someone to access a file, i give them a link to it. Apache has a directive in the config file for this. For the other question about downloading mp3's: I'm a bit unclear. Are the mp3's turned into real audio files or streamed by a real audio server? Is it just that your computer is using real player to play the files that are in fact mp3s? If the files are streamed by a real server, you will need a program to get them easily that can talk the protocol and collect the stream. If the files are somewhat hidden on the webserver, you will need the url to download them. If its just real player that is playing them, look at the html source for the page list and paste the link into a terminal.. fetch or wget should be able to grab them. If you are clicking on a link and then real player is spawning, you might be able to right click on the link and hit save target as... to save the original file. That would also work to get a real player playlist to get the real url of the files provided the person used an old version of real player. RAM files are usually text files that contain a url to a file. Give real player that file, and it will stream the file. I used to use that trick on one of my sites.

Unless they've changed it very recently, that will not help because the cmd line ftp from M$ doesn't have passive mode. In IE you need to go into Tools -- Internet Options -- Browsing and check the box that says something like Use Passive mode FTP for compat with some firewalls.

Re: download port packages
Someone, quite probably Didier Wiroth, once wrote: Is it possible to download the all the packages of the meta port /usr/ports/x11/kde? I tried make fetch, that doesn't work or partially, because it only fetches qt! I would like to download all the packages and their dependencies to burn it on a cd, and install it on a PC which is not connected to any network! # make fetch-recursive This downloads the distfiles for the port and any listed dependencies.
