qemu, usb and usb_add
I think it can be done. I have XP running under qemu fine. Yesterday I got a samsung 760 mobile and connected it to my fbsd-6. I read: ugen0: SAMSUNG SAMSUNG Mobile USB Modem, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2 So it's seen ;-) Then I read about the -usb option of qemu. OK, XP knows USB. But it does not see nor install the modem driver. I probably have to use the usb_add option of qemu console, but I have NO idea about how to formulate it. The help screen states: usb_add device, where device is host:bus.addr or host:vendor_id:product_id but how do I know these values? Can somebody help me, please. I very much like to be able to use my mobile with qemu/win and not have to reboot to a 'normal' XP installation. -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 6.0 ++ The Power to Serve ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I respectfully submit that both you and the OP are off your rockers. You guys, probably because you don't know how to setup Windows properly. (which is understandable) The OP probably because he doesen't know how to setup FreeBSD properly, plus has borked some settting in his IE. Note he hasn't posted the IE version. Note he hasn't setup a test login on his FTP server and invited anyone to try it and see if they are getting the same problem. Can you say Troll bait? I knew you could. AND YES, I did try a few FTP sites on that URL. No problem with any of them. AND NO I do not recommend IE as a FTP client either. And I respectfully submit that a recommendation against IE from someone who must apparently know how to set it up properly should IMHO carry more weight than one from someone who apparently doesen't know how to set it up properly. If you think IE's FTP client is so bad then post a few sites and I'll go to them and put up some screen captures of my IE. Go ahead, prove I'm wrong. I'd like to see it crash. I dare you. The reason it works for you is because you manually set the ftp type setting of IE. I do happen to know how to set up IE and alot of other network related setting in WIndows. When these are not set (as they do not absolutely-have-to-be with other clients) it crashes. The fact that just because you haven't bothered about that setting, or PASV etc, doesn't mean the client should crash. Under the default setup on IE, nearly every one of those sites crashes IE. Now of course it makes sense that if these settings haven't been set, that you might get an error message and have to set things right, but not to crash the application every single time without a clue as to what went wrong. Now of course I could take screen shots and get these sites to work aswell, believe me it's not some advanced windows knowledge that you're claiming ownership to here, but if you leave the settings on defualt, it crashes the browser. Plain old run of the mill, office and home environment set up, it crashes the application. Even microfts own ftp site. Oppose this to Firefox's ftp implementatoin which works out of the box, and gives you an error if you need to change something. Of course everything crashes, let's not be silly, but to crash categorically every time unless you've set it the way it should be, is an immature piece of software. On top of these are problems with standards implementations, in the same way that the IE html engine doesn't render in accordance with the standards (I can tell you this after having worked full time in web design and php/mysql, and the joy you get when you see the way things should look, according to standard html and xhtml and css texts, in other browsers, but never in IE.) But in the end it's just the fact that it's crashed in it's default setting in every Windows release I've used. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

cd9660 problem
On FreeBSD 5.4 I'm seeing a strange problem with cd9660 and DVD+RW media. I use growisofs() to burn the DVD, which works fine. However, when I mount the DVD, ls() reports the date/time of the files on the DVD five hours behind the date/time of the original files (as reported by UFS2). It seems more than coincidence that the discrepency corresponds to my time zone (EST) which is five hours less than GMT. I can confirm that growisofs() burned the disk correctly by mounting it on a MSWIN box where the date/time match the date/time of the original files on UFS2. A retail DVD movie was mounted on the FBSD 5.4 system (via cd9660) and a MSWIN box. The date/time of those files was identical in both cases. So it seems this is a problem only on my re-writable DVD media.

Re: releng for 6
# eoghan: Im going to upgrade to 6, I was wondering if someone could tell me the RELENG for 6, for my supfile? Should it be tag=RELENG_6_0? Either RELENG_6_0 or RELENG_6. RELENG_6_0 tracks 6.0.x, i.e. 6.0 + critical fixes. This is the least risky update path, but you'll have to switch to RELENG_6_1 or higher _manually_ (once they're available). RELENG_6 tracks 6.x (the 6-STABLE branch). You'll automagically cvsup new releases once they're ready, but there's a slighly higher risk involved. Yes, the branch is supposed to be stable (and in my experience it usually is) but you might run out of luck. Personally, I'd use RELENG_6_0 for a production server and RELENG_6 for everything else. But that's up to you, really.

cvsup update and source sync confusion
I am confused about how to cvsup my freeBSD 6 system. I understand the ports update stuff. Lots of good doc on this. Its updating the rest of the system that don't understand. My current adventure beging when I read the 3ware knowledgebase article http://www.3ware.com/kb/article.aspx?id=14850 . It says the latest source for the twa driver is at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/twa/ and http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/modules/twa/ All good and well except that I don't know how to sync these sources and the handbook tells me that I shouldn't update just part of my source tree. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/synching.html : *Warning:* While it is possible to update only parts of your source tree, the only supported update procedure is to update the entire tree and recompile both userland (i.e., all the programs that run in user space, such as those in /bin and /sbin) and kernel sources. Updating only part of your source tree, only the kernel, or only userland will often result in problems. These problems may range from compile errors to kernel panics or data corruption. Note, that this is all that is said on the subject. I looked in many cvsup docs and cannot find a simple way to sync the two directories. I needed HEAD for just those two directories.

how to track 6.0 increments ?
I have installed 6.0 and would like to follow important changes before something labeled 6.1 comes out. What is the prescribed method for this? I don't want to follow current or stable (I don't think). I just want security fixes and other changes that might be termed 6.01 if there were such a thing. To add to the question, while playing with my system, I did: cvsup -L 2 -h cvsup.FreeBSD.org /usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile ...and then later... cvsup -L 2 -h cvsup.FreeBSD.org /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile I have not recompiled the kernel or anything. Just sync'd the source. So, how do I get things back to the 6.0 install source? and how do I track things from this point? I have read all the handbook has to offer.

Veritas (now symantec) doesnt supports freebsd but supports linux... I modified the installation script to be able to install the software, I installed the linux_base port created the user/groups manually etc etc But I can't authenticate to the freebsd machine and wondering why.

RE: how to copy MBR??
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Javier Matos Sent: Saturday, December 03, 2005 5:50 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: how to copy MBR?? Hi, I will change the hard drive of my computer and I was thinking that maybe it can run if I make partitions in the new hard drive (the same number of partitions using the same device name), copy all the files contained in the old hard drive to the new one and finally copy MBR from old hard drive to the new one... . Can it be a solution to the problem of changing hard drives of my computer or that that I tell is a stupid thing?? Javier, You should do a little reading first. The Handbook has a good section on this, and there are MANY posts on the topic. The bottom line is that a naïve copy using dd or cp won't work. (Well, dd will work but assuming your new disk is larger, it won't be optimal.) You are probably better off with a new install on the new disk, and then doing dump and restore to transfer the relevant user data. This is a good time to rethink how your data are stored, and the handbook has a section on rearranging your directories. This is a popular topic and there are any HOWTO's out there that Google will find for you. If you have room physically, using the old disk as an extra drive is something I'd suggest as well. In fact, it makes the dump|restore work particularly well. -gayn ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Questions on disk quota
Hi I am using FreeBSD 6.0 Release. I have enabled disk quota in kernel, things look fine but I have some questions: 1. The quota information seems static. It does not update immediately according to user's disk usage. Is it normal? 2. I found that those quota files are not accessible by non-privileged user, but normal user should be able to use /usr/bin/quota to check their own disk quota. In default installation, /usr/bin/quota is own by root:wheel and have the permission of 555. My solution is chown to root:operator and make it sgid. I wonder why the default doesn't allow normal user to access the quota information.

The question that wont die: What size partitions should I make?
I have dual-boot laptop, 30GB Fat32 Win2000 and 70GB FreeBSD 6.0-R. I plan to use this for normal home desktop use (not as a server). I have 512MB RAM. According to this page: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-steps.html I should use: / = 100MB /swap = 1GB /var = 50MB /usr = rest (68GB) On past FreeBSD installs, I would occasionaly do things as root, and ran out of space in /root. Since then, on desktop machines (with 250GB drives), I would make / be 4GB. On my lapatop, I wouldn't want to give up 4 of my 70 gigs if I didn't have to. So I am looking for a realistic number that wont cramp me, and wont waste too much space. I am planning on 1GB, so it will be big enough to hold the contents of a 700MB CD ISO. I have no idea how much of /var I need, other than I like to install various packages to try them out, and I would not want to limit something like a webserver or email server if I chose to run one for limited use. A friend took the default install suggestions for a machine he planned to do some web development on, and said his /var was way too small (they were new to FreeBSD also). I am guessing 5GB for /var would allow me to run a mail-server (for personal use) and Apache+extensions for limited website developement A swap of 1GB is fine, I'm not sure I've ever actually used any swap on my machines that had more than 128MB. I want /usr to be as big as possible (obviously), so my primary user account will have as much space as possible in /use/home/account.

Re: The question that wont die: What size parti tions should I make?
I have dual-boot laptop, 30GB Fat32 Win2000 and 70GB FreeBSD 6.0-R. I plan to use this for normal home desktop use (not as a server). I have 512MB RAM. According to this page: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-steps.html I should use: / = 100MB /swap = 1GB /var = 50MB /usr = rest (68GB) On past FreeBSD installs, I would occasionaly do things as root, and ran out of space in /root. Since then, on desktop machines (with 250GB drives), I would make / be 4GB. On my lapatop, I wouldn't want to give up 4 of my 70 gigs if I didn't have to. So I am looking for a realistic number that wont cramp me, and wont waste too much space. I am planning on 1GB, so it will be big enough to hold the contents of a 700MB CD ISO. I have no idea how much of /var I need, other than I like to install various packages to try them out, and I would not want to limit something like a webserver or email server if I chose to run one for limited use. A friend took the default install suggestions for a machine he planned to do some web development on, and said his /var was way too small (they were new to FreeBSD also). I am guessing 5GB for /var would allow me to run a mail-server (for personal use) and Apache+extensions for limited website developement A swap of 1GB is fine, I'm not sure I've ever actually used any swap on my machines that had more than 128MB. I want /usr to be as big as possible (obviously), so my primary user account will have as much space as possible in /use/home/account. Should I use: / = 1GB /swap = 1GB /var = 5GB /usr = rest (63GB) Can't see the problem. If your 'doing things as root' , it doesn't mean that you have to save the output of whatever-it-is in the / directory. If you start to run short of space in var, or anywhere else, you could put it in /usr/var2, for example, and put a symlink in /var to it.

Cannot boot with newly compiled kernel, or kernel.old after upgrading to RELENG_6
Hi, I have been so unfortunate to be left with a completely unusable system after updating to RELENG_6 from RELENG_5.

However, the error message from when trying: unload, boot /boot/kernel.old/kernel I was able to copy down in full (see bottom).

InstantBSD via VMWare player ?
VMWare has a free VMWare Player, perhaps someone could make a slick desktop-ish FreeBSD virtual machine - so that people considering FreeBSD could download it and see what FreeBSD is like? http://www.vmware.com/products/player I would do it, except I have an older (4.5) version of VMWare, and I'm not yet very FreeBSD-savy. Something that would be quick inside a VM, like FluxBox or FVWM, but with some cool hacks to show people how it can be customized. Maybe a big one too, like KDE or GNOME with all the bells-and-whistles, so they could see the other end of the spectrum. thanks! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Problems with 170MB HD (FreeBSD 6.0)
Hello, I've been trying to install FreeBSD 6.0 on an old Pentium MMX 200MHz this weekend. The box has two HDs, a ~10GB one, which I wanted to use for / and a really old ~170MB one, which I wanted to use for swap. (Of couse there would be enough space on the first disk for swap, but I had this old disk lying around here and thought why not use it.) I booted up from CD and started creating slices on the HDs, which worked perfectly for the primary master HD (the 10GB one). But sysinstall complained about an incorrect geometry setting for the 170MB drive and asked me to enter them manually. I didn't want to reboot to get the BIOS values and tried to finish the install without swap at all - which worked. I rebooted, got the geometry settings for the disk from the BIOS, started sysinstall and enterered them in fdisk using the (g)eometry command. The detected geometry is 18863 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors, which adds up to a 144GB disk according to fdisk. After I enter the correct values (903 cyls/8 heads/46 sectors), it tells me, the disk has 162MB, but still shows me 144GB unused space. If I now use the a-command to use the whole disk, it assignes the 144GB to ad1s1. That seems really odd to me, I'd expect it to create a 162MB slice only. If I (w)rite the changes, it tells me the partition was created sucessfully and ad1s1 shows up in the label editor too. When trying to create swap space in the disklabel editor, I get the error message: Unable to add /dev/ad1s1b as a swap device: No such file or directory. As far as I can tell I did exactly as described in the FAQ at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/formatting-media/index.html. From a search with Google I learned that some other people had the problem with the wrong drive geometry too, but it seems to me that they all have *much* larger drives and are trying to set up multiboot-systems. Both drives worked well under Linux, so I think it's no hardware-problem. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

You don't need to bother about changing the flags. /usr/obj/usr and descendants just disappeared. After the cvsup, I cd'ed into /usr/src and did a make cleandir 2 times. This was all before I did my first buildworld. After, I finished the buildworld and kernel, I tried to do the boot -s but right now FreeBSD does not handle the Netgear GA311 1000baseT NIC properly. If I didn't do a power down in the transition it would panic. It isn't reseting the NIC properly. Windows XP does and FreeBSD doesn't. FreeBSD handles a power up just fine. Doing a power down and then booting to FreeBSD 6-stable only adds 20-30 seconds to the overall boot time. It is not that irritating :). Ruby is my source machine. I do port builds on it and create packages. Not all packages will install and work properly. For example, KDE has never upgraded properly with packages that I build on ruby and move to my other computers. Right now, if I build packages on ruby and use them, kmail disappears. I use kmail 100% except for yahoo, gmail and hotmail. Both Yahoo and Hotmail are webmail. For the gmail account I use mozilla-thunderbird. Rain and shine thunderbird works. Even in the middle of the upgrade to 6-stable, I could use thunderbird. Kmail is part of a system and thunderbird is a standalone product. I would be surprised if thunderbird didn't work. Updating my ports was a bit confusing. Openssl demands to be changed to openssl-stable. I finally let it. I found that later it would upgrade to the current version. Just ignore it for starters. Ports with problems - Audio on FreeBSD 5-6 is a toss up. It doesn't matter which port you use. I have 3 computers with Creative sound cards and 5.1 speakers. The current emu10k1 drivers use the speakers behind me. It is kind of bothering to me to listen to audio when the sound is playing behind me :). It doesn't really affect me because I always have one of the computers on my kvm switch running XP and XP plays the audio out of the right speakers, i.e., the front ones :). If I use Windows Media Player, I can let my friends know who I am listenting to. So, I am sitting here listening to Mi sangre tour de Juanes on XP and working on my FreeBSD machines. FWIW, the cd has suround sound effects and having them come out of the correct speakers is not spatially confusing :). With the exception of a confused sound setup, I have had no problems with 6-stable after I got all of my ports upgraded to 6-stable.

AND YES, I did try a few FTP sites on that URL. No problem with any of them. AND NO I do not recommend IE as a FTP client either. And I respectfully submit that a recommendation against IE from someone who must apparently know how to set it up properly should IMHO carry more weight than one from someone who apparently doesen't know how to set it up properly. If you think IE's FTP client is so bad then post a few sites and I'll go to them and put up some screen captures of my IE. Go ahead, prove I'm wrong. I'd like to see it crash. I dare you. The reason it works for you is because you manually set the ftp type setting of IE. I do happen to know how to set up IE and alot of other network related setting in WIndows. Actually Peter, I don't even know where the manual setting of IE is for ftp. I'm surprised that there is one, and am glad to hear it, could you tell me where it is, exactly? When these are not set (as they do not absolutely-have-to-be with other clients) it crashes. The fact that just because you haven't bothered about that setting, or PASV etc, doesn't mean the client should crash. Under the default setup on IE, nearly every one of those sites crashes IE. Now of course it makes sense that if these settings haven't been set, that you might get an error message and have to set things right, but not to crash the application every single time without a clue as to what went wrong. That's not my experience with IE 6 Please post these default settings that crash stuff, I'll check my browser and see if they are set that way. Now of course I could take screen shots and get these sites to work aswell, believe me it's not some advanced windows knowledge that you're claiming ownership to here, but if you leave the settings on defualt, it crashes the browser. That isn't my experience. I will say my Windows installs are straight off the MS Select CD's perhaps the defaults on OEM setups are set stupidly? Plain old run of the mill, office and home environment set up, it crashes the application. Even microfts own ftp site. No, sorry, not happened with IE 6. Oppose this to Firefox's ftp implementatoin which works out of the box, and gives you an error if you need to change something. I never disputed Firefox. It's a good brower I use it under FreeBSD. Of course everything crashes, let's not be silly, but to crash categorically every time unless you've set it the way it should be, is an immature piece of software. I agree with this, but I'm not seeing this behavior with IE. On top of these are problems with standards implementations, in the same way that the IE html engine doesn't render in accordance with the standards (I can tell you this after having worked full time in web design and php/mysql, and the joy you get when you see the way things should look, according to standard html and xhtml and css texts, in other browsers, but never in IE.) No question that IE isn't compliant. But every web designer knows that it's the majority browser so railing about it, while cartharic, doesen't change the fact that your going to have to write to it's rendering stupidity for your customers. Perhaps if more web designers submitted bug reports to Microsoft they might actually fix some things? But in the end it's just the fact that it's crashed in it's default setting in every Windows release I've used. Not my experience.

kernel panic because I pulled a floppy?
Hey all, I'm reading BSD Hacks by Dru Lavigne, published by O'Reilly. In the section on managing floppies, it mentions that if you pull a floppy without umounting it first, the next time to try to access the filesystem, you'll get a kernel panic. Is this true? If so, it would be the very first Unix that I've seen crash from this kind of user-mistake. Thanks, Mike -- Michael P.

Too many files crashing services
I posted this issue yesterday sometime and have been trying to track down the problem with the help of the Postfix list. There, Weitse has suggested tracking down the culprit using lsof, which I know nothing about. I tried 'lsof|less', but that doesn't even show anything via SSH, related to the mail system. Perhaps I need to be at the console to run this? I tried 'lsof|grep postfix' and get pages of information to open files, but what I'm I looking for? The problem is these errors below keep showing up in the messages log until it starts to crash services, I stop and start Postfix and it goes away, but only for several minutes. I have to stop and start Postfix every 15 minutes to keep the issue at bay. Any ideas what I should be looking for with lsof? esmtp# tail /var/log/messages Dec 4 17:54:33 esmtp master[91678]: service pop3 pid 15695 in READY state: terminated abnormally Dec 4 17:54:33 esmtp master[91678]: service pop3 pid 15696 in READY state: terminated abnormally Dec 4 17:54:33 esmtp master[91678]: service pop3 pid 15697 in READY state: terminated abnormally Dec 4 17:54:34 esmtp kernel: kern.maxfiles limit exceeded by uid 88, please see tuning(7).

Re: How do I know if my internal PCI modem works on FreeBSD?
Thanks for the good feedback. Is there a particular modem chipset which if it is spotted on the card, it is confirmed that it's more than a WinModem? - Original Message - From: Daniel Rudy [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Wojciech Puchar [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Foo Ji-Haw [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 05, 2005 10:08 AM Subject: Re: How do I know if my internal PCI modem works on FreeBSD? At about the time of 12/3/2005 7:38 AM, Wojciech Puchar stated the following: Basically, it all depends on how much you spent for the modem. A $15-20 modem is more than likely a WinModem (software modem) which FreeBSD does *NOT* support without a third party driver. If the modem cost $70-100, and it is recongized as a serial port by the sio driver, then it probably will work. externally connected modems (by serial) costs less than $100 anyway and do work for sure. many external modems does connect by USB port and can be cheaper, but check for hayes compatible label (or similar) as some USB modems are winmodems too. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] So, some USB modems are winmodems now? I was not aware of that. Besides, who wants a USB modem anyways? I didn't mention the external modems because the OP was asking specifically about his internal PCI modem.

I've used FreeBSD for quite a while, but am currently just a little rusty. I was hoping the list members could help me with planning a strategy, and possibly point me to some resources for help. I have my copies of The Handbook and FreeBSD Unleashed at my side. :-) The printers are: HP1100 LaserJet (non-postscript, parallel only) Epson Stylus C86 (postscript, USB only) Here is my current list of requirements: My daughter's WinXP Pro SP2 box must be able to print to either printer. My Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.3 box must be able to print to either printer. (I may not know what I'm talking about here, but) I would prefer IP printing as the only means of serving the printers, rather than Samba for serving to Windows, AND CUPS or something else for serving to OS X. You don't need Samba to set up a printer server for windows. Cups will do fine. Printers can be addressed via http then (at least on my 6.0 machine). Mail me if you need help with configuration. Uli. The FreeBSD machine is quite capable hardware-wise of doing all this. I have a copy of 4.11-RELEASE, but will be glad to install whatever version makes it easiest to do what I need.

Bootloader Freezes with timer. Ok if press enter
My first 6.0 machine destined for production (not to worry.. will test thoroughly before it goes live ;-) and it freezes on the initial boot screen. If I press enter right away upon the boot menu appearing the machine boots fine. However, if I let the countdown start it freezes when there are either 8 or 7 seconds remaining (every single time). Any suggestions? This was after making the machine stable as of 12-4. Not sure if the problem existed from 6.0 Release on this machine since I usually press enter on the boot menu right away. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have my copies of The Handbook and FreeBSD Unleashed at my side. :-) The printers are: HP1100 LaserJet (non-postscript, parallel only) Epson Stylus C86 (postscript, USB only) Here is my current list of requirements: My daughter's WinXP Pro SP2 box must be able to print to either printer. My Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.3 box must be able to print to either printer. (I may not know what I'm talking about here, but) I would prefer IP printing as the only means of serving the printers, rather than Samba for serving to Windows, AND CUPS or something else for serving to OS X. You don't need Samba to set up a printer server for windows. Cups will do fine. Printers can be addressed via http then (at least on my 6.0 machine). Mail me if you need help with configuration. Thanks, I will. Haven't tried printing from Windows yet. I have just now verified that I've got the dad-gum thing working! Had to install CUPS (Not that difficult).

I realize that this may be a stupid question, but am I correct in that *this* is a 64bit machine, and I should be enabling the AMD64 stuff on her? Perl won't be reporting a 64-bit capable machine, when running a 32-bit OS. Look in /var/run/dmesg for 'AMD Features' to report 'LM' (long mode). Lo So why there is a 64int? We can suppose that perl has seen that Marc's proc is a 64 one no? I asked that cause I got a 64bits (amd) which run on a 32 bits mode and I got oftenly such i386-freebsd-64amd ++ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
