make buildkernel KERNCONF=CUSTOM errors!!!
I am attempting to compile my custom kernel. I have just recently updated my source to interim build RELENG_5_4 I keep getting these errors when compiling the kernel. Could anybody please help and give me some clues as to what the problem is here? I am also currently running the IPF firewall. Should I have it disabled while I am rebuilding? Below is the output of the error I get.

problems booting FreeBSD 6.0 on IBM Blade Center H40
Hi I have this new IBM Blade Center, which I would like to run FreeBSD on with boot from SAN, when trying to boot I get problems and can't see any disks from the SAN. the configuration I have is a IBM Blade Center H40 DS400 diskbox with dual controller but only single connection Qlogic 2312 dual FC controller I tried to boot from the FreeBSD 6.0-Release cd but it always fails with the error can't load kernel and I can't see the cdrom to boot from after the boot loader has started. So I downloaded the boot floppies and tried to boot the blade using the floppies but it won't show me any drivers after a long waiting period while the isp driver hangs for awile in the boot process. I compiled a custom kernel and made new boot kern floppies to boot from, and now I'm stuck with this error in the boot process: isp0: bad execution throttle of 0- using 16 isp0: bad hard address 125- resetting to zero after reading all i've gathered on this subject and googl'd on it, I put ispfw_load="YES" line in the loader.conf ,, but without result Can anyone point me out on how to solve this problem, I really need this to work !?!? please help! kveðja/regards Gestur ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: spontaneous reboots/ what causes these in general?
You might want to check if your power cables are all firmly and properly connected, both those on the outside and inside. You can also try running from a live-cd, or another harddisk with another installation and see if the problem still occurs, if it does, you know it's a hardware problem and not software... Replace the power supply, maybe it's broken.. My experience is that checking for hardware problems before software problems is the fastest way to fix something like this (example: a few weeks back I spent a hour getting my floppy drive to work only to discover the power cable wasn't connected, DUH!)

Re: kernel panic because I pulled a floppy?
It happens, I've experienced quite some problems with floppy's and FreeBSD 5.4 and 6.0 anyway, if you mount a floppy, pull it out and unmount it the kernel might panic, if the floppy if reading writing and you pull it out the kernel might panic, if you mount a floppy which is damaged or has a damaged filesystem the kernel might panic I think i've only seen FreeBSD crach about six times in the year I'm using it, all of those were with floppy problems... My advice: Save all your work before you do anything with a floppy Don't do anything with a floppy on critical machines Think before you act when working with a floppy It sucks, I know, I always use a windows machine when I need to write or read something on a floppy. Using windows instead of freebsd because it's better at something. . . . . . . scary. . . On 05/12/05, Kris Kennaway <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Mon, Dec 05, 2005 at 08:37:23AM -0500, Michael P.

VMWare on FreeBSD 5.4
Hello all, I have loaded VMWare from the ports collection and now trying to import a Windows XP virtual machine from another system. I am having a couple of issues though. <= /p> 1. The system has 512M RAM on the system, yet VMWare only "sees" 16M= in the Preferences section. Is there a hack or something I can do to adjust this memory ceiling? 2. When trying to fire up the virtual WinXP, VMWare says that it cannot read the parent partition from the file. I have adjusted permissions on all of the files in the WinXP directory, to no avail. Any ideas why this is happening, or how to fix / workaround? Anyone who has VMWare from the ports installed an= d working, please help. Anyone with answers is more than welcome to share them.

ee(1): why Backspace doesn't work as expected if $TERM=xterm?
Hello, When I ssh my FreeBSD 4.8 machine and try to use ee(1), I always notice that Backspace erases the following character, not the previous one. On the contrary, I've noticed that it does not do that when I login via console. So I decided to play with the value of $TERM. By default, when I ssh FreeBSD via PuTTY or Apple Terminal, I have the TERM variable set to "xterm" or "xterm-color". When I tried to manually change $TERM on FreeBSD and run ee, using "setenv TERM vt102 && ee test.txt", then Backspace key in ee(1) did behave as expected. Please, notice that Backspace does behave as expected in tcsh, it's only ee(1) that shows this problem. How do I fix it without changing $TERM?

Re: DualBoot
Forwarded Well, not entirly, If windows craches, and you to reinstall you'll also need to reinstall the boot manager, not much work, but still... Also, there's a small change of the windows filesystem going bad on the wrong location (where your boot manager is located) and you won't be able to boot into anything... I have no idea how grub actually works, you probably need to run an installer program or boot from a floppy/cd to install it, check the grub documentation On a sidenote, windows(all versions) always overwrite your MBR, without asking or even mentioning it, that, among others, is a good reason to install windows first, and whatever other OS next... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: FreeBSD 6.x / GRE / WCCP / Squid
Hello Alan, Just a couple of thoughts. Do you realy need that tunnel? Try if it will work without it, maybe there's a problem with it. Second, can you see your squid in show ip wcccp web-cache detail from the cisco? Does you squid work without wccp? I mean setting up the host explicitly to use the proxy? I don't remember precisely, I did it a long ago, but I think you should use wccp version 2 in order to run wccp with squid. Hope that helps. -- Best regards, Cezarmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

One notable difference is that in the second case (without a local-host-names file), the host name "larry.local" is not recognized as a local host name.

Need Help compiling Utilities for Niagara 2261 Nic
I need some help compiling the utility for the Niagara 2261 nic. I have the sources, make file and card specs. I just don't have the knowledge. Does anyone have any experience with this card? I'm trying to get this working on a FreeBSD 6.0 install. FreeBSD 6.0 sees the 2 interfaces on the card as em0 and em1. The card is in a failed open state and passes traffic (what they call mode 0). But ifconfig show that the interfaces have "no carrier". I would like to run tcpdump on either the em0 or em1. Basically I want to sit a box between my router and switch and make it an in-line sniffer.

BTX Halted - not such a newbie question
I'm having problems installing FreeBSD V6.0 on an HP (ne Compaq) desktop PC. The install appears to go fine from CD, or via FTP, but on rebooting the installed boot loader halts with a register dump and "BTX halted" error message. So no rotating curser, no kernel messages just the dump and error message. Now I've been using FreeBSD for years, so immediately think "Disc Geometry problems - enable / disable DMA" etc. Nope, I've tried the various BIOS settings and manually setting the geometry in fdisk. I've also tried changing the boot manager for a dedicated MBR.

SSH no passwd auth doesn't work

Fixing fs with fsck
I just did some fsck /var and getting the problems below. I am at a remote locatation and need to go on-site to repair these things in single user mode.

I've had to do fsck quite few times on servers after power failures. Never had problems. I always login to single user mode and run fsck -y , and let the system take care of it. Though I've read that this may not be the best option to go about it, the other choice to sit there and press Y or N for things I don't fully comprehend was not viable either. So do your backups, run fsck -y in single mode and cross your fingers!! Usually /var will not result in critical issues and from your post it seems errors in the postfix queue. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I've not really got a tunnel. It's just setup as per the Squid docs to have FreeBSD think it is. The Cisco just sends the packets encapsulated in gre to the FreeBSD squid box. The tunnel is setup so FreeBSD will strip the gre headers and present the system with the original encapsulated packet on the gre0 interface.

"Unable to find device node" errors at install
I ran into this familiar problem tonight while trying to do a fresh install of 6.0 - the one where during the install process you can successfully create a slice, but then fail to create the partitions. The error when one attempts to write out the partition table is "Unable to find device node /dev/da0s1b in /dev!" After successfully installing Ubuntu on the same box (and having run FreeBSD 4.x on it for years) I figured out it wasn't a hardware or even disk geometry problem. The problem must lie in devfs or in the initialization of the miniroot environment. After the successful disklabel (one big partition type 165) I skipped the partition editor and started a fixit shell. /dev/md0 was mounted as /. I don't know if that's how it is during a partition edit, but I noticed that the only da0 devices in /dev were da0s1a and da0s1c. I don't know enough "mknod" magic or whatever is used to create additional device handles in /dev these days; as a naive installer I shouldn't have to. I went back to the partition editor, created one big partition, da0s1a, and didn't bother creating a swap or secondary partition. The write succeeded, and I could proceed to install FreeBSD 6.0. Since none of the previous attempts at addressing this problem seemed to come up with a clear answer, I thought I would add this information to the fray; it's not a question to be answered but it might help someone who hits this problem again. Or it might even lead to a fix by someone who understands how the installation scripts are supposed to work.

Okay, Squid doesn't support WCCP version 2. So I decided to try to use a route-map redirector to see if it was something else causing the issue. Now I've have tried two was and I'm seeing the exact same problem. Firstly I tried :- kern conf - options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD ipfw conf - ipfw add 50 fwd 127.0.0.1,3128 tcp from any to any 80 I see the packets hitting fxp0 correctly and I see the forward rules, but nothing appears in tcpdump for lo0 nor does squid see anything either. So secondly I tried to us IP Filter instead. I removed all the IPFIREWALL stuff from the kernel and I setup ipf as follows :- ipnat.rules -- rdr fxp0 0/0 port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 3128 tcp Now I can see the transactions when I do 'ipnat -s' but still nothing appears on the lo0. I have ip forwarding turned on and the machine is acting as a gateway. The only thing I can think of is the packets are from a private IP range and the proxy server is in a routable IP range in my DMZ. But if that where a problem why do I see the packets hitting the forwarding rules but never coming out the otherside? Any help would be appreciated.

Kris I did have a problem with my ports that I don't fully understand, but .. oh well. I updated ports today and yesterday hoping to get rid of the problem. Apparently when I installed the openoffice.org-2 package OOo_2.0m142_FreeBSD60Intel_install_en-US.tbz, I slipped in a dependency on the beta version of openssl instead of the stable version called for. Don't know how. I fixed the problem by deinstalling the openssl-beta version, installing the openssl-stable version, and then running pkgdb -F to fix the incorrect dependencies that I generated. Thanks much for your help. Don ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Anyone has an idea? Probably you need to modify your PAM config instead. Kris Thanks. I just realized I had linux servers configured the same and they also allow password auth :(.

Changing maximum number of groups in FBSD - is it feasible?
Hi, I'm toying with the idea of increasing the maximum number of groups a user can belong to on one of my servers - we have a rather complex organisation and we're hitting the 15 group limit for some people. There seems to be differing opinions on how to do this and if it's actually feasible. One post I found said: > in src/sys/sys/syslimits.h there is a constant named 'NGROUPS_MAX'. > change it to however many you need (within reason), rebuild/install world > and kernel. Another said you have to change all sorts of things in the source, modify a kernel parameter, rebuild world and rebuild any port that uses NGROUPS - which probably means a portupgrade -fa. There is talk of a maxgroups() parameter in the kernel, but NOTES makes no mention of this. I wonder too if some apps would need their own configuration altered to allow them to work with the higher limit. So I just wanted to ask if anyone has successfully raised the NGROUPS_MAX limit, especially when running samba & nfs on the system? If not, I'll work around the problem a different way. (BTW I'm running 5.4-RELEASE) Cheers, -- Ian gpg key: http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~imoore/no-spam.asc pgpX2ngKgxYU9.pgp Description: PGP signature
