If the machine doesnt boot from the boot floppies and doesnt boot off the recovery cd it is not the fault of freebsd. Have you told the machine to boot off the floppy/cd first and not the hard drive? There will be a setting in the bios that allows you to select which one to boot from.

Windows VOD player: what to do in FreeBSD?
Hi, I'm running up-to-date ports with 4.9-stable. My favorite radio station used to broadcast over the internet in way that popped up Windows Media player in MS-Windows. I used mplayer on FreeBSD and it worked just fine. Recently the radio station seems to have changed its setup. On Windows PCs it pops up the VOD player (whatever that is, I had never heard of it so far). The problem is that mplayer on FreeBSD no longer can handle this. Any ideas what I can do about this?

Re: Porting software to FreeBSD 5.2.1
On Mon, Apr 12, 2004 at 01:28:47AM -0500, Eric De la Cruz Lugo wrote: You probably know that libc is the library that includes all the standard C commands (such as printf, read, open, etc.and so on) as well as system calls. Up until 1997, the only library available was the GNU libc v1, which since the move to ELF binary format was given major number 5 (/lib/libc.so.5). In 1997, the Free Software Foundation developed GNU libc v2, with the intention of being cleaner, more portable, and more standard (POSIX compliant). Under Linux, this version got major number 6, hence it's called libc6. These two libraries are incompatible - if a program is compiled with one libc's headers and stubs, it can't be used with the other. any one knows how i can use the libc6 in the linux compat directory? i have checked on my sistem and in fact i have it! /usr/compat/linux/lib/libc.so.6 Well, Linux is not FreeBSD. And vice-versa. You're trying to compile this code as FreeBSD native, so you don't want to use the libraries under /usr/compat/linux at all -- those are there for the benefit of Linux binaries run under emulation. The libc version number in FreeBSD is the same as the major version number of the OS, so your FreeBSD 5.2.1 system has: /usr/lib/libc.so.5 -- single threaded libc /usr/lib/libc_r.so.5 -- reentrant (for multiply threaded) libc Now, the problem you're running into is that certain similar function calls etc. have an API similar enough that you can get the code to compile, but that differ in subtle but significant ways in operation. This can lead to core dumps and other effects as you've seen. Unfortunately there is no simple way to resove that sort of problem. You need to run the problem code under the debugger, work out why it is blowing up and produce patches to the source code that fix the problem. It helps if you have an intimate knowledge of the FreeBSD libc and preferably the Linux/GNU libc and where the incompatabilities are likely to occur.

Your friend is being unnecessarily alarmist. apache2 is not significantly different to apache13 in security terms. However, it is (I think) still a bit bigger and slower than apache13, plus support for all of the vast panoply of add-on modules etc. is yet to appear. However, apache2 works very well, and has some extra functionality (like improved IPv6 support and better threading) which may make it the preferrred choice at some sites.

Re: can you help me decide
Can you plz help me, i know i am on a freebsd list but i would wish somebody could help me decide. it's between the BSDs, either: FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD, i have almost narrowed it down. I am a lil more worried about security than portability so i guess that leaves OpenBSD and FreeBSD. I just want a desktop and i heard they all make good ones If you're new to the BSDs, FreeBSD may be easier to start with. This shouldn't prevent you from trying out the other variants too. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Networking Questions
Thanks Bob, This worked out perfectly. All I did was add the second nic.

If your ISP is already routing these numbers to your main IP, then it should be easy. Right now I have my fsb box running mail/web and other services and I would like it to do the routing for my internal network of 4 or so computers. I have a Hub that I can plug these other systems in to so that is not a problem. I believe all you need to do is set gateway_enable=YES in rc.conf (and reboot -- I don't know the manual way to accomplish that). I think your box will automatically figure out which IP numbers are on which interface, and forward appropriately. If not, you will need to set up a static route to tell it which interface the 209.../29 subnet is on, since it won't use the default gateway to the Internet. Manually, you use the route(8) command to do this. I think you can automate it with the static_routes= entry in rc.conf, but I don't know the syntax. What would be the best way to use my block of statics and have them Route properly through my BSD box. I would like to stay away from NAT as I know it right now, broadband router, as it causes havoc with my filesharing programs and would like to have my other systems pretty much open to the internet and then start locking them down as need be once I get them seeing the outside world and the outside world seeing them. You shouldn't need to run a real router daemon for this simple situation, so you don't need to mess with router_enable in rc.conf.

pcmcia wireless cards
Hi guys, I noticed that the hardware list for wireless interfaces are quite old. I'm thinking of buying a wlan pcmcia card, but it seems that the ones I can find around my area are not in the list. The nearest I can find is SMC 2635W (the one in the list is SMC 2632W). Anyone have tried this card before? Is it compatible? what about belkin cards? or Netgear MA521 that supports 821.1g? And have anyone tried Compaq WL400 wlan access point with freebsd yet? can you configure it from freebsd an not from windows? any replies would be appreciated.

Re: Sound problems..
Hello, it would be nice, if you could paste here your dmesg output..

Notes: * Athena (the household server) is a Celeron 900 wiith 256MB of RAM and a 'bge' gigE NIC running -STABLE * Caliban is a UltraSPARC 360 with 384MB of RAM and a 4-port 'hme' NIC running -CURRENT * Coyote is a Celeron 400 with 128MB of RAM and a 'rl' NIC * In my case racoon sets up 3des for me -- note that this isn't a CPU friendly scheme, though it is very likely to be compatible with other platforms * I run a seperate VLAN for IPsec traffic, so all IPsec traffic numbers include an assumed that they were also VLAN'ed * The IPsec'd IP of a host has it's own name in DNS, simply it's regular name prefixed with sec. * I ran netserver (from netperf) on Athena and tested it for UDP_STREAM (a nice NFS-like test) over both the IPsec VLAN and the regular unencrypted link (non-VLAN'ed) Results: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/netperf]# ./netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H secathena Socket Message Elapsed Messages SizeSize Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytessecs# # 10^6bits/sec 92169216 10.01 715 0 5.27 42080 10.01 713 5.25 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/netperf]# ./netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H athena Socket Message Elapsed Messages SizeSize Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytessecs# # 10^6bits/sec 92169216 10.01 13004 13160 95.81 42080 10.01 12778 94.14 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/netperf]# ./netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H athen Socket Message Elapsed Messages SizeSize Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytessecs# # 10^6bits/sec 92169216 10.00 10452 0 77.02 42080 10.00 10452 77.02 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/netperf]# ./netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H secathena Socket Message Elapsed Messages SizeSize Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytessecs# # 10^6bits/sec 92169216 10.001789 0 13.18 42080 10.001789 13.18 During the tests the clients were CPU-bound. To put it bluntly, the performance impact is non-trivial. That's to be expected, and at the slower speeds of wireless networks it's more likely that more modern CPUs will be able to keep up.

openssl port not over-writing the base

I went into /usr/ports/security/openssl and ran: make -DOPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE=yes install When it was through building, it didn't over-write the /usr/bin/openssl binary, but it did install the new openssl in /usr/local/bin.

Greetings all, It has been a long time since I worked with any unix, and I had a spare pc laying around that hadn't been on in months, so I decided to toss freebsd onto it. The installation went smoothly and I've got it up and running. My next goal is to get it's internet access working flawlessly. The problem that I'm having is that while it can get access via IP address, it's domain resolutions are not working. The way that I've been setting this up is via tutorials on the net, going into Sysinstall - configure - interfaces - sis0 then hitting yes for it to auto detect everything. All of this comes up really beautifully and happily. The details it discoveres are 100% correct. However, I can not get the little box in Interfaces to hold an 'x' (not sure if that's right or not anyway) and when I exit sysinstall and go back, it has not retained the information. When I do an nslookup from shell, it shows my ip as 0.0.0.0 which is probably part of the problem. It should be showing my internal IP (192.168.1.13); which it does detect in sysinstall Anyway, as you can see from this message, I'm a complete beginner at this.

Oh, yes: unless you use an encrypted tunnelling protocol like a VPN or an SSH tunnel, pretty much all filesharing protocols are vulnerable to subnet-local sniffing. Using strong encryption when using wireless is a fine idea. :-) SMB/CIFS is a reasonably good choice of filesharing protocol if you're dealing with Windows or Mac systems using HFS+ due to case-insensitivity.

I *really* need help PLEASE - buildworld failing on mkdep libstdc++ can't find unwind.h but it *is* there
[Some of the maillists including -current@ are down at the moment. I hope someone on this list can help in meantime, please?] I've posted several msgs over the past two weeks stumbling on buildworld when using lang/gcc33. I've gone back to using system gcc by clearing out env-vars and ldconfig and /lib and /libexec of anything related to the lang/gcc33 (it did build some ports so the ldconfig has a last entry to find its libgcc etc.). I've rm -Rf everything under /src (/usr/src) and re-applied all CTM deltas thru early A.M. CDT today. I've downloaded the April 8 bzip2ball from current.freebsd.org and ran 'make installworld' on it in hopes to get a clean copy of world (yes there were a few tricks with symlinks to make it work).

Hey, you say you have a dying passion for freebsd, does that mean your passion is in fact dying? ;-) Or maybe you meant undying? hehehe Being a registered Architect in Florida, I too would love such a thing, but as far as I know, there is no good way to run AutoCAD on a *nix system, emulated or otherwise. My current situation is to use FBSD for file storage and the like. I let the CAD guys run Wintel and AutoCAD. Yes, I am using Samba for that. I have not tried wine in about two years, but even then I could not even install AutoCAD, much less run it. I think that AutoCAD is to Windows dependent to be emulated and you may be stuck with a not so perfect situation. Perfect being a FBSD environment. -- Bob Play is the work of children.

Re: Porting software to FreeBSD 5.2.1
Thanks for your response, you are right about having an intimate knowledge of the FreeBSD libc and preferably the Linux/GNU libc sadly this is my first program am trying to port and i lack of that knowledge right now, i simply dont have the time to learn the basics, and don`t even know how to make patches for this code, the software is in: http://www.bananahead.com/ you will se that there is a bsd port in progress right now but the truth is that with this kind o problems the port will take years to be finished. the creator of the system is having poblems with this but my help is not enough to help him in the port task, hope some one with more knowledge than I can help him in this task. am willin to send my logs of the compilation problems I found and tryed to solve. Thanks to you and all. Eric De La Cruz Lugo. Well, Linux is not FreeBSD. And vice-versa. You're trying to compile this code as FreeBSD native, so you don't want to use the libraries under /usr/compat/linux at all -- those are there for the benefit of Linux binaries run under emulation. The libc version number in FreeBSD is the same as the major version number of the OS, so your FreeBSD 5.2.1 system has: /usr/lib/libc.so.5 -- single threaded libc /usr/lib/libc_r.so.5 -- reentrant (for multiply threaded) libc Now, the problem you're running into is that certain similar function calls etc. have an API similar enough that you can get the code to compile, but that differ in subtle but significant ways in operation. This can lead to core dumps and other effects as you've seen. Unfortunately there is no simple way to resove that sort of problem. You need to run the problem code under the debugger, work out why it is blowing up and produce patches to the source code that fix the problem. It helps if you have an intimate knowledge of the FreeBSD libc and preferably the Linux/GNU libc and where the incompatabilities are likely to occur.

I've got a Microsoft Optical mouse(PS/2) and while I can use the wheel as a middle button, the scroll function doesn't seem to help. Add Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 to the mouse section of your /etc/X11/XF86Config. This is a FAQ, and you probably should've been able to find it through Google.

SOLVED - 5.2.1-RELEASE boot problem
Nobody has been able to help me here or elsewhere, but I did discover one strange thing that seems to have taken care of things. The way I usually build my systems, since they're strictly FreeBSD machines, is to dangerously dedicate the drive. When the system was installed that way, regardless of what I did in /boot.config, regardless of which IDE channel I had the drive connected to, and regardless of BIOS settings tweaked to hell and back, it refused to boot from the IDE drive and the boot loader would default to 22:fd(22,a)/kernel. On a lark, I reinstalled the system using a true partition and the FreeBSD bootmgr. When I rebooted the system after the install, it prompted me for the partition to boot (F1 for FreeBSD) and booted successfully without any trickery. When I installed the system yet another time using a true partition and chose the standard option (for just a standard MBR, rather than a boot manager or none), the system booted completely normally without any intervention on my part at all. So, while I have no explanation for why it acts differently depending on whether or not the drive is DD'd or given a valid partition, that's what fixed the problem for me. I thought I would make a follow-up post just in case this ever happens to anybody else and they need some place to start. - Jamie On 04/09, 10,000 Screaming Monkeys rearranged the electrons to read: I know I'm going to regret asking this, because it's undoubtedly something simple that I'm missing, but I can't for the life of me make this work. A little background: I have FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE installed on an ATA133 drive, which is connected to a Soyo SY-P4S Dragon Ultra motherboard. The motherboard has 4 onboard IDE ports -- two regular (slower) IDE ports (labeled 1 2 on the board), controlled by the BIOS; and two faster RAID ports (3 4), controlled by an onboard Highpoint HPT370/372 controller. When installing from CD, everything works as expected with no errors, regardless of which IDE channel/port I have the hard drive connected to. And, just to note, when I have it connected to IDE port 3 (an ATA133-capable port), FreeBSD addressed the drive as ad4 after booting. When attempting to boot after the install, however, the boot loader is apparently defaulting to a floppy drive, as this is all I get: Verifying DMI Pool Data error 1 lba 0 error 1 lba 0 No /boot/loader FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 22:fd(22,a)/kernel boot: If I type 0:ad(0,a)/boot/loader at the boot: prompt, though, it actually runs the loader and presents me with the ASCII daemon and the boot menu. I've tried putting that 0:ad statement in /boot.config, but it didn't seem to have any effect on the boot process (i.e., it still defaulted to 22:fd and gave me the same errors). Can anybody tell me what I might have missed, or what I might be doing wrong? My head is getting a little sore from beating it on random hard, flat surfaces.

And then I thougt about obrien@ since this: # $FreeBSD: src/bin/cat/Makefile,v 1.7 2001/12/04 01:57:37 obrien Exp $ is in the Makefile for cat(1) but I really don't want to bother him if I'm wrong.

USB via module instead of kernel?
I'm new to this kernel-module thing, so I hope this isn't a silly question. I'm using FreeBSD 5.2 on a laptop running ACPI, and like many others have had suspend/resume problems with the USB dying on resume. I saw a suggestion somewhere that you could remove USB support from the kernel, and add it in via a .ko file at boot time; this way, you could have an rc.suspend and rc.resume that unloads/loads the USB module appropriately and perhaps avoid the problems. I'm not entirely sure how to do this. First, I note that the device usb line in the kernel configuration file has a Required note in it, and I'm nervous about removing something that says Required. Second, while I have a usb.ko file under /boot/kernel/, if I type kldload usb, I get a can't load usb: File exists message, but if I try kldunload usb, I get can't find file usb: No such file or directory. I might have expected a different message if usb is loaded as part of the kernel. If I want to enable it at boot, do I just add usb_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf ? So to summarize, I guess my questions are: 1) Can I comment out device usb from my kernel config and then rebuild the kernel, without causing some big problem? 2) To load at boot, do I just add usb_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf ? 3) Will doing what I described help with the USB problems on suspend/resume?
