Disk geometry, 5.3b7 install
Hi all, Trying to install 5.3b7 on the second slice of a Seagate ST380013AS SATA 80G drive. Drive was originally partitioned from NT to have an 8G NTFS slice at the front, with the rest left open for FBSD. When I boot off a CD (image created from downloaded iso image), start the install, and go to allocate the freebsd slice, it reports 155061/16/63 ad4 and says the geometry is invalid If I go ahead and attempt to partition, I see Geometry ad4 9729 cylinders/255 heads/63 sectors = 156296385 sectors (76316MB) Offset Size(St)End Name PType Desc SubType Flags 0 63 62 --12 unused 0 63 16386237 16386299 ad4s1 4 NTFS/HPFS/QNX 7 16386300 139915188 156301487 --12 unused 0 F1 help suggests running tools/pfdisk, for which there appears to be no documentation, but which appears to be a very old tool applicable only to disks smaller than 8G and not using LBA. Questions: 1. Is the geometry (155061/16/63) really invalid? Given the 1024 cyl limitation, it doesn't look to me like the modified geometry (9729/255/63) assumed? by fdisk is any better, since both 155061 and 9729 are 1024. In any case, the drive uses LBA, so why is this an issue and even being reported? 2. Do I really want to reset it? Is that even relevant when LBA is being used? 3. Is pfdisk and geometry even relevant for disks 8G? Decided to abort the install until I had this straightened out, but I'm guessing I should just forge ahead and disregard the geometry complaints?

You can very well lag but doing so you would be creating apain in your forehead. Because everything that worked on 4.X-Release ( repeat, notice the word release) will also work on 5.Y-Release ( notice the word release). And also I would argue against keeping your boxes in the 4.X tree because as new releases are made available, the source codes of the ports are also changed to make it portable to the new tree. Most of the times tyhey DO compile on the old tree but you would be loosing features and performance. For example, there is a huge difference in performance when Xorg is compiled on gcc 2.95 and on gcc 3.4.2. If you are interested then contact me off the list. I would be happy to send you the performance monitor logs. Also, at least one piece of hardware is near impossible to upgrade. An old 486/25 that's running Snort, without a cd-rom and a 200M hard drive. Negative, this hardware is also upgradable. Just the catch is it is not SELF upgradable. I mean you can expect to compile the tree on the 486 itself. But you can very well compile its tree and kernel on a Pentium (say) and install it on the 200M harddisk. I have quite a few routers which have a lot similar configuration to yours and they work till date without complaining. Just the upgradng is a bit troublesome compared to the newer systems. Refer to the CFLAGS parameter in man make.conf What about my question about boot strapping? Does that ensure that I could compile the world/kernel of 4.x on 5.3? John No it does not. To be precise as far as I know, there is no way you can compile a native 4.X binary of any kind (application, kernel, bootstrap, you name it) on a 5.X box. Although you CAN run native 4.X binaries on a 5.X kernel using the compatibility layers. Refer to /usr/src/sys/NOTES for further information about compiling the compatibility layers. And yes the boot strap code has also changed from 4.X. Refer to /usr/src/UPDATING for a brief log about what had been changed since the 4.X tree. Also you can find detailed information about upgrading a 4.X tree to a 5.Y tree (although not recommended for other performance, security and a number of other reasons).

One of the most common reason is that, the BIOS does not allow LBA transparently. Also FreeBSD had the reputation (or should I say ill reputation?) of getting information directly from the hardware and nopt rely on BIOS whenever it can. 2. Do I really want to reset it?

Network Setup
Hi Everyone, Having some issues with my home network at the moment. Basically I used to have a FreeBSD gateway system, it ran various network services for my network and some remote users via the internet, smtp, httpd, ftp, pop etc etc. It was equipped with a second network card (first was going to the cable modem), which was connected to a 4 port netgear hub. Now I have changed the network setup, as I purchased a wireless broadband router. This works great, it is linked to the wired machines via a Ethernet hub, and serves 2 wireless laptops (running windows) as well. However the problem I am now having is, that users via the internet, cannot access any of my network services by using the hostname of my system. i.e. Users cant browse to codegurus.org, but they can browse to my IP address. The same is to be said for SMTP connections, pop, ftp etc. I have verified that the router is forwarding the ports to the internet by running a nmap scan on my IP address from a remote machine that I have access to. I have also verified that the hostname still points to my IP address. Here is some system information: uname -a FreeBSD codeguru.org 5.2.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE #4: Wed Oct 13 21:55:19 BST 2004 :/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CODEGURUS i386 ifconfig sis0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet 192.168.0.4 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:09:5b:69:7e:ec media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active I could understand this being a apache vhost problem, if it was simply a apache issue. But for the life of me, I am lost as to why the ports would appear open when scanned. But not accept connections via my hostname.

commenting/uncommenting a particular line in place
Good Day, I'm looking for a command combinations (not and editor) that would uncomment or comment a line in any configuration file such as inetd.conf with just one single stroke. For example here's the line in inetd.conf that will enable ftpd: #ftpstream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -l sure, I can extract that particular line using cat and grep, but I'm not quit sure how am I going to edit it. If it is commented by default, I can just say: cat /etc/inetd.conf |grep #ftp |grep -v 6 |sed -e 's/#//' to extract and edit that particular line and then pipe the output to 'tee -a' to be able to append it at the bottom of inetd.conf. But what if it's already uncommented? I know a little bit of perl and I'm thinking of reading the entire inetd.conf line by line and then when I hit that certain line, insert a # in front of it, all being done while writing it to another file and then replacing the original inetd.conf after everything has been written. Do you have any idea how it is done without using perl, perhaps with command combinations etc.. Thanks for the time. ___ Do you Yahoo!?

Set IPv6 address on the interface
Hello, I'd like to set an IPv6 address to the ethernet interface from a user process, but I don't understand which system call may be used. For getting information about interfaces and addresses there are some methods: ioctl (with SIOCGIFCONF), sysctl (witch NET_RT_IFLIST), AF_ROUTE socket, getifaddrs(). I've tried ioctl() and sysctl() for this purpose. For setting an IPv4 addreess to the interface there is ioctl() with SIOCSIFADDR. How set an IPv6 address? There is SIOCSIFADDR_IN6 for setting address, but it doesen't work as say the comment in in6.c. And there are two commands SIOCDIFADDR_IN6 and SIOCAIFADDR_IN6, delete/add address accordingly, but I've got error: Invalid argument. Or I don't know how use them. My questions: 1) How can I set an IPv6 on the ethernet interface? 2) How can I get IPv6 multicast addresses from each interface? If anyone knows something about, please, give me an answer or reference to it.

Yet the partition step appears to have changed it already, or is assuming it will be changed. I don't understand what the situation is: sysinstall reported geometry as 155061/16/63 and said it was bad then partitioning assumes it will be 9729/255/63 Ignore the warning and proceed with the install. The partitioning utility had already guessed the correct values and will proceed it. BTW may I have the part number of the drive? I would like to check the hardware literature.

configuring php to work with mysql
I am having to reinstall my php and apache 1.3.

Re: Compiling 4-RELEASE on 5-STABLE
On Wed, 2004-10-13 at 18:11, John Gillis wrote: My apologies if this has already been asked. I'd like to upgrade my non-production machines to 5.3 once it is released, however I'd like the production servers to lag behind once I make sure everything is working right. This might mean that my production servers would be running 4.x for the next few months. Compiling world, the kernel, and ports is done on non-production machines however, with the ports being packaged and installed on the servers and /usr/src being NFS mounted from a non-production machine. After installing 5.3 on the non-production machines, I'd like to track the 4-RELEASEs into another directory, say /usr/src.4 while tracking 5.3-RELEASE in /usr/src. My question is.. would I be able to compile anything on 5.3 that would still work on 4.10? Does the make build(world|kernel) bootstrap and then use the /usr/src.4 development environment to link/compile everything? Would I be at a loss with ports (not terribly important in my environment)? Consider holding back one non-production machine at 4.x as the build box for the production servers. That would eliminate any chance of the 5.x tree affecting the production servers. Either run cvsup twice (once from the 4.x build box and again from the 5.x build box) or set up your own cvsup mirror. -- Gary Dunn [EMAIL PROTECTED] Honolulu ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You can very well lag but doing so you would be creating apain in your forehead. Because everything that worked on 4.X-Release ( repeat, notice the word release) will also work on 5.Y-Release ( notice the word release). If you actually believe that I have a very nice bridge here you might be interested in. It is certainly the goal that things which worked on 4.x will continue to work in 5.x, and it might even work out that way in 99.99% of all cases, but *everything*? Not a bloody chance - there are always bugs that have yet to fixed (or even discovered). Also, at least one piece of hardware is near impossible to upgrade. An old 486/25 that's running Snort, without a cd-rom and a 200M hard drive. Negative, this hardware is also upgradable. Depends. It it is a 486sx it will not run 5.x (support for FPU-less systems has been removed.) I believe 5.x also needs a bit more memory than 4.x, so if that box has too little RAM it might be unbearably slow under 5.x What about my question about boot strapping? Does that ensure that I could compile the world/kernel of 4.x on 5.3? John No it does not. To be precise as far as I know, there is no way you can compile a native 4.X binary of any kind (application, kernel, bootstrap, you name it) on a 5.X box. And that is bullshit. It is of course possible to compile a 4.x binary on a 5.x box - just make sure you link against the right libraries (and in the case of C++ programs at least, compile with a compatible compiler.) I don't know if it is possible to do this without jumping through an inordinate number of hoops however. -- Insert your favourite quote here.

If everything is not working right, then 5.3 wouldnever be tagged STABLE. This is not Windows. 5.3 will have bugs even when tagged -stable. I can guarantee that once 5.3 is released and people start using it more widely there will be new problems being reported that haven't been discovered yet. 4.10-R uses gcc 2.95 and 5.3 uses gcc 3.4. The binaries compiled with the later are not backward compatble. You do realise that you can install gcc 3.4 on a 4.x machine and run the binaries compiled with it? For C++ the ABI has changed a couple of times betwenn gcc 2.95 and gcc 3.4, but for C everything should work fine, as long as you link against the right libraries. -- Insert your favourite quote here.

There doesn't exist a command 'make search=...' it should be 'make search name=mod_php4'. Because of this you have compiled (but not installed) all recursive ports. To fix this do: make clean from /usr/ports (this takes a while) The most recent for me is: mod_php4-4.3.4_7,1 If you run 'pkg_version | grep php' then you can see if the port is newer than the one you installed. A means that this is the case. Now my question is: How should/can I update mod_php4, if there is no update available? First install portupgrade: # cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade/ # make install make clean Then do: # rehash # portupgrade -fR mod_php4 The R also compiles all ports that php4 uses and the f force a recompile of ports that are of the current version. Its not allways required but I've had some trouble with php. This solved the problem for me. -- Alex Please copy the original recipients, otherwise I may not read your reply.

Not a bloody chance - there are always bugs that have yet to fixed (or even discovered). The primary phrase which a developer must believe is No software is 100% foolproof. So speaking in that line, indeed no software including the Releases of FreeBSD are 100% bug free. What I meant was, the RELEASE, not STABLE is expected to work correctly and fight back all the bugs that had been discovered till date. But I never meant it is perfect. If it was, then we would never have patches or future releases. And BTW I would be really interested to know about some hardware/software which used to work under 4.X and stopped working under 5.Y even after updating to the latest versions and applying all patches/hacks. It is entirely probable and acceptable that out of the box, a software natively made for 4.X will not work on 5.Y Depends. It it is a 486sx it will not run 5.x (support for FPU-less systems has been removed.)

Way back in the mists of processor pre-history, the original 8086 was an integer-only CPU. The same applied to the 80186, 80286 and 80386, although by that time it had grown a companion chip the 80n87 which held the FPU. By the time the 80486 came along, the FPU was incorporated into the main CPU silicon, although there were some cheapo 486 chips where the FPU had failed during manufacturing, sold as integer only processors. In order to run Unix on such systems, it was necessary to provide a software library to emulate the FPU system. FreeBSD actually came with a choice of two. All obsolete now.

Desktop users have the on-access scanner running all the time in their MS Windows and/or Mac OSX environments. We use Sophos on the Unix server cause I think it's the best fit for our organisation as a whole (especially the Windows desktop file server which is what the majority of machines run... though not the majority of our servers).

FreeBSD and poor ata performance
Hello list, This is an interesting issue. While I was installing FreeBSD 5.3BETA7 I wonder about the performance that the new branch will bring to my computer, and it was a deception how bad FreeBSD performs compared with Linux on the same hardware (even I repeat the test on different PC with identical results). A simple test is create one gibabyte file and later read this file again. To conduct an impartial test the disk (in UDMA5 mode), was formated in both operating systems with the native filesystem just to be sure that the physical position of the file will be the same in both tests. for linux it took about 23 seconds write the file and 18 read it. # time dd if=/dev/zero of=aa bs=1024k count=1024 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out real0m23.408s user0m0.000s sys0m4.470s # time dd if=aa of=/dev/null bs=1024k 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out real0m18.311s user0m0.000s sys0m5.850s and for FreeBSD it took 40 seconds write the file and 42 read it: # dd if=/dev/zero of=aa bs=1024k count=1024 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes transferred in 40.143630 secs (26747502 bytes/sec) # dd if=aa of=/dev/null bs=1024k 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes transferred in 42.711242 secs (25139560 bytes/sec) so as you can see linux was two times faster that FreeBSD :-?

RE: Association Problem with Multiple APs
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 07, 2004 2:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Association Problem with Multiple APs Hello list, I am running the 4.9 release of FreeBSD on an embedded net4521 box and my problem is: Recently a wireless ISP put up an antenna in our apartment complex. Now for some reason, my 4521 (and my iBook with regular AirPort, also BSD based??) favor the wireless ISP's connection over my own LinkSys access point. The ISP's antenna runs on channel 1 and consistently has a stronger signal than my own AP (channel 6). I have tried changing my own AP's channel to no avail. Each time I issue the commands to associate with my AP the 4521 merely connects to the ISP rather than my specified SSID. If I check wicontrol or ifconfig it reports that the desired netname is my AP, but the current netname always ends up to be the ISP's AP. This is extremely irritating. I recently got a wireless card (NL-2511CD Plus EXT2 802.11b PCMCIA by SENAO) w/ the prism 2.5 chipset, and the aforementioned problem is only with this card. My older card (a 3com 3CRWE737A PCMCIA) works *relatively* well, but I wanted to upgrade so... Has anyone had this problem, and does anyone have a suggestion to fix it?

Since this is a machine managed by my ISP (I don't have a full dedicated server, just a Virtual Private Server with 2 gig of disk space) could something be overriding my syslog.conf file? I looked at rc.conf but didn't see anything that I thought was appropriate to comment out. Also, I can't switch to another tty because my only access is remote --- I don't have console access.

This is something that drives me crazy but I've not been able to find a way to stop it. When I log into my FreeBSD 4.6 Web Server as root, I get messages from sendmail that I can't suppress with dmesg. They are a real pain because they even come across the screen when I'm using VI to edit files and then I can't figure out the line I was in the middle of editing, and end up doing a :q! and starting over, very frustrating because we get tons of mail and it seems like I can't do anything as root because of these messages. Is there a command that will suppress the messages? I remember being able to do that when I was working on an HP-UX system but haven't figured it out under FreeBSD. Thanks for any help!

Re: Compiling 4-RELEASE on 5-STABLE

To be precise as far as I know, there is no way you can compile a native 4.X binary of any kind (application, kernel, bootstrap, you name it) on a 5.X box. It's not so hard, you just extract a 4.x system image into a directory and chroot to it, and build from there. With more work you could do it without the chroot. However, to answer the original question: binaries built by the 5.x system toolchain cannot be run on 4.x. The main barrier is that 5.x binaries usually use syscalls that are not present in the 4.x kernel, so you'll get signal 12 errors if you try and run them.

Re: Disk geometry, 5.3b7 install
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: [ ... ] The only problem is that the geometry was reported as bad by sysinstall, and implied I needed to change it. When you access a drive in LBA mode, the BIOS reports a fake geometry. This is the warning you see, but you probably do not need to change anything, just create a new FreeBSD partition in the unused space. Yet the partition step appears to have changed it already, or is assuming it will be changed. The installer is displaying the existing partition table as it is on the disk, which shows an NTFS filesystem (presumably Windows). Your job is to add a new partition to hold FreeBSD. I don't understand what the situation is: sysinstall reported geometry as 155061/16/63 and said it was bad then partitioning assumes it will be 9729/255/63 Do I actually have to run pfdisk to change it from 155061/16/63 to 9729/255/63? No. One more question: The installation notes say the root partition must be below cylinder 1024. If I want a largish (8G) partition for windows, how do I accomplish this? This limitation was a problem with older BIOSes which depended on booting using the pre-LBA C/H/S style geometry. I believe even that issue could be solved by using a boot manager like GAG, but I doubt you'll run into this problem either if your BIOS understands LBA. -- -Chuck ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Arla
I hope this is the correct place to post this. I'm a recent convert to FreeBSD (about 2 years ago). I'll spare the details (potential flame bait). I'll just say it is so nice to have ONE distribution of my O/S and leave the inferences to what I was using before as an exercise to the reader :) Anyways, using the very well maintained ports I have never had any troubles. However, I am on a fact finding mission. I have been digging around the 'Net looking for AFS client information for FreeBSD. It appears OpenAFS does not run on FreeBSD and many point to Arla. I visited the project's homepage and I noticed that it stated that FreeBSD 5.2.1 is a specifically supported (my version) system. I tried to make the port and noticed it was listed as broken (as well as several errors after I type make in /usr/ports/net/arla). So without wasting any more time on the mailing list then need be- what is the status of Arla on FreeBSD? Is there a working port for 5.2.1? Or a more general question- if one has a 5.2.1 machine (i386) and wants AFS client connectivity- what options are available to him (if any)? Thank you for any guidance that you can give. - Damian ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Frankly I hadn't thought of that.
