IPv4 over IPV4 on the same network segment
Hi Folks, I've got to route a network over an ipv4 tunnel between to machines which have their parent link on the same network segment. Everything works well except for people trying to access the external address of one of the link machines: ie: Physical 120.1.1.2 (xl0)--- 120.1.1.3 (sk0) Tunnel 192.168.3.1(gif0) -- 192.168.0.1 (gif0) || NET1 (xl1) NET 2 (sk1) 192.168.3.0/24 192.168.0/24 Now anyone on net NET1 can talk to NET2 fine via a default route to gif0. However anyone on NET1 can't talk to 120.1.1.3 as routing tries to send via xl0 as it's on the same net and firewall rules prevent it.The default route for xl0 is gif0 with a link level route to the ip of sk0. Anyone got an idea how to fully route xl1 via gif0? Including the parent physical address?

GEOM, Vinum difference
Hi, I see that if I want to do disk striping/ concating/ mirroring, FreeBSD offers the GEOM utilities and the Vinum LVM (which fits into the GEOM architecture). Why do we have two different ways of doing the same tasks -- any advantages/ disadvantages to either approach? I did check the archives before posting this question. Got a couple of hits, but they seem to be old info. Hence this question. The GEOM utilities seem to be newer, fancier, and probably the future. Vinum seems to be how things used to happen earlier. After GEOM was introduced, if Vinum had been discarded, I would have understood. But it wasn't. Instead, it was rewritten for GEOM and is probably still actively maintained. So I wonder why we have two ways of doing the same tasks ... What I understand from the archives is that Vinum was _probably_ rewritten for GEOM coz the GEOM utilities were still new and not as time tested as Vinum. Is that the case? So will Vinum continue to be around for a while or it be discarded? - Rakhesh http://rakhesh.com/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Your system should automatically become aware of the new / 24 networks when you create the gif tunnel. I'm assuming, 120.1.1.2 can ping 120.1.1.3? If so, can either machine ping 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.3.1? If that's the case, simply setting gateway_enable=YES in /etc/rc.conf should allow all the necessary packets to go to the correct destination. FWIW, if you do want to set the default across the gif tunnel, the other end will have to be able to handle all the internet-bound traffic.

ath -- Atheros IEEE 802.11 wireless network driver
Hi, I have been having some interupt issues with this driver. If I hook to a wireless access point that is week, I get tons of interrupts and kills the performance of my laptop. However, when I us it at home with the access point in the same room as my laptop everything works great. I a connect to the same access point using a Windows box (different wireless card unfortunetly) I do not have a problem. I am running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p7 #2: Sat Aug 4 23:06:38 EDT 2007 I am not sure where to start to debug this or if there is a better mailing list to send this.

Now, since then it either gets rebooted during filesystem check, or either during starting /usr/local/etc/rc.d/avahi-daemon.sh . Right now, I'm mailing from Linux, and attaching a copy of /var/ log/messages with output of FreeBSD booted with verbose logging chosen at boot menu. I've tested my memory using memtest86+ executing all tests (including Bit fade test), and it passed all tests. Please suggest what should I do ? My recommendation would be to run mbmon or something similar to monitor system temperature, etc. I've not got a lot of experience yet with the AMD64 architecture, but the little I do seems to be prone to over heating. Often, when I've had similar problems to those you describe, I can later attribute those reboots and crashes to system temperature.

Sorry to reply again so soon, but I failed to read through your attachment before sending my previous message. I notice that your system seems to have crashed at least a few times during the loading of PowerDNS.

I am sure i read somewhere that many people are skipping the dynamic rules and just relying on the line by line rules. You thoughts please.

Trying to move /usr
Good morning everyone, I am trying to migrate my /usr to a newly installed SCSI drive. Up until yesterday I had /, /var, /usr on a 5 Gig drive and my /home was on another 60 Gig drive, which was fine because it had no GUI and functioned mostly as a server. Last night I added a third drive, with a capacity around 18G; since my other two drives are hard-wired in /boot/device.hints, there were no problems with device numbering. I wrote down the device name (/dev/da2) and proceeded to sysinstall to first create a FreeBSD partition and then the only slice within that partition. I named it /user. I then tarred up /usr Tar cf /user/usr.tar /usr Extracted the tar file and moved everything one directory up, because otherwise everything were under /user/usr. I made the necessary adjustnments in /etc/fstab, that is I switched /usr and /user around. After reboot, I wasnt getting the prompt, since the binaries for displaying the prompt are located under /usr/bin (or /usr/sbin?) and my guess was that /usr wasnt mounting properly. I restarted the machine, this time going into single user mode. Trying to mount a gave me an error message: Error mounting /usr/home. I then created home directory under the new /usr, I tried mount a, this time it worked, but when I rebooted, I wasnt getting my home directory. When I login as an unprivileged user michael, the message is something like: User has no home directory. For now I reverted to using the old /usr.

As many long-time FreeBSDers know, there are these pages up there, but I don't feel their new-user friendly, and they certainly are a PITA to find at times. I'm not suggesting we lay out a strict timeline, as I'd much prefer the releases when they're ready, but simply a page saying, 'Hey, FreeBSD x.y release is coming soon, we're currently working on 'blah.''

Up until yesterday I had /, /var, /usr on a 5 Gig drive and my /home was on another 60 Gig drive, which was fine because it had no GUI and functioned mostly as a server. Last night I added a third drive, with a capacity around 18G; since my other two drives are hard-wired in /boot/device.hints, there were no problems with device numbering. I wrote down the device name (/dev/da2) and proceeded to sysinstall to first create a FreeBSD partition and then the only slice within that partition. I named it /user. You have that backwards. You created one slice on the disk and one partition within that slice. Minor thing, but can confuse communication. I then tarred up /usr Tar cf /user/usr.tar /usr Extracted the tar file and moved everything one directory up, because otherwise everything were under /user/usr. I made the necessary adjustnments in /etc/fstab, that is I switched /usr and /user around. I am not completely sure just what you mean by 'moved one directory up' and 'switched /usr and /user around'. It sounds an awful lot like you are saying you modified /etc/fstab to mount this new partition (probably /dev/da2s1a, though the 'a' might be something else) as /user instead of /user/usr. But, the new partition needs to be mounted as /usr After reboot, I wasnt getting the prompt, since the binaries for displaying the prompt are located under /usr/bin (or /usr/sbin?) and my guess was that /usr wasnt mounting properly. I restarted the machine, this time going into single user mode. Trying to mount a gave me an error message: Error mounting /usr/home. I then created home directory under the new /usr, I tried mount a, this time it worked, but when I rebooted, I wasnt getting my home directory. When I login as an unprivileged user michael, the message is something like: User has no home directory. For now I reverted to using the old /usr. Anyone attempted to migrate /usr and fell for similar kind of problems? Any suggestions will be appreciated. P.S. I am not next to that machine right now, so I cant provide the exact fstab or dmesg output. I guess we need the actual /etc/fstab to be sure just what has been done.

Re: cheap (supported) wifi card
Don, I notice a earlier poster mentionedwork very well with ndisgen. I think you've been misled. That means you have to go thru several manual steps to smash the windows drivers into something freebsd can use. Ugly, in my opinion. If you want it to work 'out of the box', go back and buy a card with a prisim/orinoco or atheros chipset. If you want to make your existing dongle work, look for ndisgen in the handbook in the 'wireless networking' section.

Up until yesterday I had /, /var, /usr on a 5 Gig drive and my /home was on another 60 Gig drive, which was fine because it had no GUI and functioned mostly as a server. Last night I added a third drive, with a capacity around 18G; since my other two drives are hard-wired in /boot/device.hints, there were no problems with device numbering. I wrote down the device name (/dev/da2) and proceeded to sysinstall to first create a FreeBSD partition and then the only slice within that partition. I named it /user. You have that backwards. You created one slice on the disk and one partition within that slice. Minor thing, but can confuse communication. I then tarred up /usr Tar cf /user/usr.tar /usr Extracted the tar file and moved everything one directory up, because otherwise everything were under /user/usr. I made the necessary adjustnments in /etc/fstab, that is I switched /usr and /user around. I am not completely sure just what you mean by 'moved one directory up' and 'switched /usr and /user around'. It sounds an awful lot like you are saying you modified /etc/fstab to mount this new partition (probably /dev/da2s1a, though the 'a' might be something else) as /user instead of /user/usr. But, the new partition needs to be mounted as /usr After reboot, I wasnt getting the prompt, since the binaries for displaying the prompt are located under /usr/bin (or /usr/sbin?) and my guess was that /usr wasnt mounting properly. I restarted the machine, this time going into single user mode. Trying to mount a gave me an error message: Error mounting /usr/home. I then created home directory under the new /usr, I tried mount a, this time it worked, but when I rebooted, I wasnt getting my home directory. When I login as an unprivileged user michael, the message is something like: User has no home directory. For now I reverted to using the old /usr. Anyone attempted to migrate /usr and fell for similar kind of problems? Any suggestions will be appreciated. P.S. I am not next to that machine right now, so I cant provide the exact fstab or dmesg output. I guess we need the actual /etc/fstab to be sure just what has been done. Maybe also some dmesg output that shows the disk devices could be useful too. jerry Thanks in advance, Michael ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Date: Mon, 20 Aug 2007 11:24:01 +0200 From: Branko Vukelic [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Adam J Richardson [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you allow me, a BSD noob, to take part... ;) I'd say FreeBSD is a wolf, and DesktopBSD is definitely a dog (as in domesticated wolf). By taming the wolf for desktop use (I'm not going into HOW that's possible) you get a system that is quite different (like an Alaskan Malaute), but still a dog, whereas DesktopBSD is still like a German Shepherd. I hope my approximation is about close? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaskan_malamute http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_shepherd As for other systems, yeah Windows is definitely a fish (if we're talking pets), and I don't find it prudent to mention Linux here. It's alien life form. :D You forgot to CC the list, Branko. :) [I wouldn't worry about noobishness. We're mostly noobs on this list anyway. There are a few gurus lurking in the shadows. As long as you show willingness to learn and don't expect others to do hold your hand while you cross the road, no one minds.] Regarding the pets analogy, I was sort of thinking we could stay on Earth for now and leave aliens for weird future operating systems like LCARS. Perhaps Linux could be a venus fly trap, or possibly a ferret? A ferret would be good, since it's more like BSD than it is like Windows. And it's also very curious.

Re: New to Subversion - Access denied issue
Quoting gimp_user: I have made all repository paths owner:group www:www Permissions for subversion have always gotten to me, too. The way I usually get around my headaches is to chmod -R 777 the subversion root directory. I have not found any fallbacks to a 777 setting, because you are using either a AuthFile or AuthzSVNAccessFile, which designates proper permissions. (Please, anyone correct me if I am wrong on this.) 2. My AuthzSVNAccessFile AuthzSVNAccessFile /usr/local/etc/apache22/Authz_svnhome [/] * = r [/usr2/svnhome] * =r [project_meth: /usr2/svnhome/project_meth] david = rw test = r I am going to assume `/usr/svnhome` is the directory where you have the root SVN directory. If I am right, your Authz file is wrong. Here's how it works: Say my SVN root is in /usr/home/svn. When I create the Authz file, and I use [/], the Authz file sees /usr/home/svn as /. Meaning, it doesn't see anything above it. (Think jail). That said, the second directory entry in you Authz file [/usr2/svnhome], unless it is a project inside your SVN, has to change. Better explained?: if you have this: http://your.host.com/svn/usr2/svnhome , your file is NOT wrong... If /usr2/svnhome is where your SVN root is, it IS wrong. If I have completely misunderstood your file, and what you were aiming to accomplish, I appologize -- but I remember this is how I misunderstood it when I started using SVN.

As I said, we know and even newbies can learn, with considerate explanitory responses, that no absolute date can realistically be named - that there is justifiably more concern about quality than making a particular 'release date'. But some running info on how it is going is helpful - actually reassuring, to those of us out of the loop. It needn't be anything elaborate.

Re: SAS (serial attached SCSI)
Jonathan, other than telling him well this is the new SCSI, i am wondering if anyone else is successfully using this technology thus far. Well you'll have to accept the fact that it is the new SCSI and you have to run with it. I bet you will have hard time finding a server with parallel SCSI. To answer your question, yes, I have one HP machine using SAS disks, FreeBSD 6.2, no problem so far. I'd say that one concern with SAS (like with SATA) could be the connectors (I read stories about loose connectors); in my case, this is hot swap disks, so there should not be problem. Don't go for cheap cables to avoid bad quality/substandard connectors.

syslogd, exec and alarms
I have a syslog.conf line that has a selector pointing to action that is a perl script. The script takes action based on the content of the line passed to it. Simple stuff. Works fine. Wanting to be resource sensitive, I would like the script to terminate after so many idle seconds - its likely to get occasional bursts of input with quiet periods here and there. No problem, set an alarm with a maximum idle time and shutdown if it fires. This works fine if I execute the script from the command line. Doesn't work at all if spawned by syslogd. I assume syslogd or the sh being fired to spawn the command are grabbing the alarm signal for themselves. I am missing something obvious. Is there any way to make this work? As it is I can keep the program going all the time or I can have syslogd respawn it every time a line is sent. Neither option is appealing.

Re: Configuring OpenLDAP on FreeBSD 6.2 Release, Problems.
I am a newcomer to the FreeBSD world. I am trying to implement a openLDAP installation. It all went ok with the SASL and SERVER install in conjunction with BDB, yet when I try starting the service using /usr/local/libexec/slapd or /usr/local/etc/rc.d/slapd start, the service does not start. I checked ps -axww | grep slapd and nothing is showing. After checking cat /var/log/debug.log I can see the following output in stdout. Beside enabling slapd in /etc/rc.conf, did you configure openldad in /usr/local/etc/openldad? I doubt it will start before you configure it properly.

Block to i-node to file name (was Re: uncorrectable disk error)

[I took the liberty to change the subject for better archival] Unless you're an fs guru or very patient and careful, you probably won't or would have a hard time. But don't give up yet! Try the following procedure: 1. Determine the slice where the block is located (fdisk) 2. Determine the partition of the block (bsdlabel) 3. Calculate the partition-relative offset of the block (i.e. subtract the slice offset and subtract from the result the partition offset). 4. Fire up fsdb(8) with the -r option on that file system. 5. Use fsdb's findblk command with that fs-relative offset to determine the inode that is holding this block. From man fsdb: findblk disk block number ... Find the inode(s) owning the specified disk block(s) number(s). Note that these are not absolute disk blocks numbers, but offsets from the start of the partition. Keep in mind that the block could also be in the free list (unused); but you'd not get this error message if it was (?). 6. Verify that the resulting i-node number is the right one by jumping to that inode with the inode command of fsdb, and rechecking that this block is indeed held by this i-node with the blocks command of fsdb. (you may want to run fsdb in a script(1), to capture the potentially long list of blocks). 7. The inode number you get won't tell you the name of the file. To find this, scan all directories of that file system for this inode number (I'd write a small C proggy for that, but you could just as well use find(1)'s -inum switch. If your disk is dying, this can (wether with a C program or with find(1) crash your system. If the number of directories is not very high, you could try to use fsdb(8) for that. BEWARE: Always use fsdb(8) with the read-only flag -r! You could irrevocably damage your file system otherwise if you don't know exactly what you're doing. Good luck! Regards, -cpghost. P.S.: We really need a little LBA to i-node utility for UFS/UFS2, that we could combine with find /fs -inum n...!

Re: Trying to move /usr

What you probably want to do to replace a /usr partition is something like this: cd / mkdir user mount -t ufs /dev/da2s1d /user cd /usr pax -rw -pe . /user pax is like tar. -rw means to read (r) from the source (.) and write (w) to the destination (/user). -pe means to preserve everything (permissions, ownership etc). Having done that, you now have a duplicate usr directory structure under /user i.e. /user/bin /user/lib and so on. Now you can switch the fstab entries like you planned, reboot, and you should have replaced /usr with the new drive. Hope this helps, although you may have some issues in the future due to any unintended consequences of the tar/mv command combination.

isc-dhcp3-server issues with windows 2000 client
Hello, I tried posting under a similar topic, but not sure if it went through. I'm new on this list, but not a total newbie. I have upgraded a system from p6 to p7. Everything seems to be working on wtih the upgraded system except for dhcp. I have a backup of the old system and am using that to trouble shoot. I have narrowed it down to the dhcpd binary. If I put in the newer binary built with p7 it does not work with windows 2000. If I put in the old binary it works fine.

Re: Trying to move /usr - Fixed
I was able to rectify the problem by removing /home, which was a link and was pointing to /usr/home and then recreating it as a directory. Thanks everyone for their suggestions, Michael --- Vinny [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Michael S wrote: I reverted to the old /usr.

If I put in the old binary it works fine. First question would be: how did you build isc-dhcp? pkg_info |grep dhcp Second, is it running? How do you start it? Third question: was are the version number of old and new dhcp? You may be facing some change in dhcpd configuration file.

Re: Trying to move /usr
Michael, firstly let me quote the head of your original message, just so I/we don't get too confused, especially by all the gratuitous re-quoting of subsequent 'relative irrelevancies' like your dmesg .. I am trying to migrate my /usr to a newly installed SCSI drive. Up until yesterday I had /, /var, /usr on a 5 Gig drive and my /home was on another 60 Gig drive, which was fine because it had no GUI and functioned mostly as a server. Ok, so /home was its own drive, one slice. This would suggest that you didn't have /home as a soft link in / but you should check 'ls -la /' to be sure that's the case, ie that a link hasn't crept in somehow. If one has, delete it. Also check that your 'old' /usr dir has no link to /home lying around, which might account for some of this oddness, especially since your tar and (I'd consider potentially hairy) 'mv * ..' Last night I added a third drive, with a capacity around 18G; since my other two drives are hard-wired in /boot/device.hints, there were no problems with device numbering. I wrote down the device name (/dev/da2) and proceeded to sysinstall to first create a FreeBSD partition and then the only slice within that partition. I named it /user. And you intended to leave /home on the 60G drive? Its not clear what you intended to put on the new /user, or was it just an intermediary? I think I may have called it '/fred' till the process was finished, but never mind .. back to the more recent, with formatting touched up a tad: On Mon, 20 Aug 2007 19:28:51 -0400 (EDT) Michael S [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's df -k output: Filesystem 1K-blocks UsedAvail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a50763085046 38197418%/ devfs 110 100%/dev /dev/da0s1e495726 10 456058 0%/tmp /dev/da0s1f 3733038 2869704 56469284%/user /dev/da0s1d495726 110700 34536824%/var So that /user is your old /usr, right? Do an 'ls -la /user' and check its contents are the same as your new /usr below. Also 'du -d1 /user' should look like 'du -d1 /usr'. Neither should contain a link to /home /dev/da1s1d 68431992 27948332 3500910244%/usr/home /dev/da2s1d 17213408 2882922 1295341418%/usr This looks confused. I think you want /home (not /usr/home) to be your 60G da1s1d, don't you? As is, the mountpoint is on the 17G da2s1d, which would a) actually need to be mounted first, and b) contain a /usr/home dir to mount it on. Better would be to mkdir /home, and mount it directly on there. When I go back to the old /usr by editing fstab: /dev/da0s1b noneswapsw0 0 /dev/da1s1b noneswapsw0 0 /dev/da0s1a / ufs rw1 1 /dev/da0s1e /tmpufs rw2 2 /dev/da0s1f /usrufs rw2 2 /dev/da0s1d /varufs rw2 2 /dev/da1s1d /home ufs rw2 2 /dev/da2s1d /user ufs rw2 2 /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 I get into my home directory with no problem. Right, so you do have a /home directory, not a link there? Use ls -la to confirm contents of /, /home and /usr (and /usr/home, if present), with either the old or the new setup, which might help point out where this confusion is occuring, especially if there are any links involved. Also, the realpath command can be useful to discombobulate any links, ie 'cd ~michael ; realpath .' --- Jerry McAllister [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Mon, Aug 20, 2007 at 06:52:12PM -0400, Michael S wrote: I tried the earlier suggested dump/restore: %cd /user %dump -L -f - /usr | restore -r -f - When I log-in over ssh I get: Could not chdir to home directory /home/michael: No such file or directory.
