I've also tried starting ndis0 with polling # ifconfig ndis0 inet 192.168.1.20 polling but still get the messages. I guess this driver doesn't support polling. Or I've got the syntax wrong. That command is not currently efective at all for ndisX(I yet have to see if it is possible). According to vmstat -i irq11 is used by cbb0 and pcm0. ndis0 is on irq9 irq9: cbb1 ndis0++ This is on PCBSD 7.1 which is FreeBSD 7.2-PRERELEASE Any way I can get this thing working? Try yo disable cbbX if you dont use it or enable MSI for pcm0 (if possible). This is a pcmcia card in a laptop so cbb is needed :( There is no reference to msi in the pcm man page so I guess it is not available for this system. (Paul I saw a post from you on multimedia about msi in hdac and sure enough there is a reference to msi in snd_hda(4) man page). Am I looking in the right place? msi for snd_hda(if that is your sound driver) should be enabled by default on CURRENT (dunno about 7): hint.hdac.%d.msi=1 my driver is snd_t4dwave and msi is not mentioned in the man page. Does that mean it's not available? You could try to use different dev.ndis.0.InterruptNumber for ndis0. Changing it via sysctl is not supported, you will need to modify right line(s) in inf file, or in .h file generated with ndiscvt(1) via ndisgen(8) Dunno if that will work (never tried) Tried, doesnt work. Polling could be enabled if miniport driver for your card supports it, look output of sysctl dev.ndis.0 no reference to polling in sysctl dev.ndis hmm not looking good so far Chris ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

local security scanner for vulnerable common opensource www projects
I tried to find a program which could scan the local filesystem and extract a lists of well known web projects (yoomla, wordpress etc), extract the installed version number and match it against a database of known vulnerabilities.

lost+found
A couple of days ago I had minor glitch as my FreeBSD box on my local intranet had an unexpected shutdown. When I fsck'd on reboot I was left with a few lost+found directories with #99 files. Most appeared inconsequential and could be deleted. But there is one /tmp/lost+found that puzzles me. There are 3 subdirectories that act a little strangely. [~]# cd /tmp/lost+found/#123456 [/tmp/lost+found/#123456]# ls [/tmp/lost+found/#123456]# cd .. [/tmp/lost+found/#123456]# cd #123456 this returns and empty directory) [~]# ls (this returns the listing of the contents of /root Whoops! What is going on? I'd like to delete this /tmp/lost+found/ directory but, being very wary, I don't want to take the risk (probably none) to delete it since there is no indication that this is a symbolic link and might delte the actual /root/ directory withoug getting some information about this occurrence.
