Portupgrade is trying to add a group www with gid 80 which already exists.
Try cat /etc/goup | grep 80 (without quotes) to see which group is
assigned gid 80.
Then you can take measures changing the gid of that group.

It's Adaptec, probably AHA-3985 - there is an appropriate string in the  
driver.




AHA-3985 is SCSI controller. The one I have is SATA.
Yes, I'm sure that it's Adaptec, but what is the model?!
If FreeBSD didn't recognised it during the installation
does that mean that it is incompatible with FreeBSD?

Hi George!

Common problem.  The issue isn't that the FreeBSD driver cannot talk
to the SATA controller.  It can do that just fine.

The problem is that HP is using a modified metadata format on the
disk drives.

What you need to do is go into the Proliant BIOS and DISABLE
the SATA raid.  This of course means any raid arrays, mirrored or
otherwise, that you have created, cannot be used from BIOS.  Just
leave the BIOS settings so that the SATA controller is enabled, but
the RAID on the SATA controller isn't.

Then boot FreeBSD 6.2.  It will see 2 disk drives.  (or more or however
many you got)

Now, if you want a raid mirror here is what you do.  Load a scratch
install of FreeBSD 6.2 on the first disk.  Run atacontrol to create a
mirror on both disks.  This writes out a metadata format that FreeBSD's
disk driver understands.  This will trash your freebsd install of course.
No problem.  Reboot from the installation CD and now you will see
the 2 disks, plus ar0 (the mirror)   Install to that and your all set.

Basically the only difference between doing it HP's way by creating
the RAID from HP BIOS and doing it the FreeBSD way is that
the HP BIOS is unaware of the FreeBSD metadata format so you
cannot see or rebuild an array from BIOS that was created in
FreeBSD, and FreeBSD is unaware
of HP's metadata format so you cannot see or rebuild an array
from FreeBSD that was created in BIOS

As far as how the actual raid mirror works, it's exactly the same.
In fact, better, since you can rebuild a FreeBSD array from
FreeBSD and it's about 10 times faster than rebuilding it from
HP's BIOS.

Routing problem

2007-02-08 Thread George Vanev

I have FreeBSD 6.2 box with 1 NIC and 2 IPs.
The first IP is to access internet, the second
is for the ISP's LAN.
Unfortunately I have internet, but no access to
the other network.

I made a test. I assigned to the NIC only the local
IP and removed the defaultrouter. Then, of course,
I have no internet but was able to access the ISP's
network.

I've tried everything I know, but still nothing

Re: Routing problem

2007-02-08 Thread George Vanev



Nothing?  You're able to arp 192.168.64.1 and 192.168.64.3, can you ping
them?

Since you have an RFC-1918 address on both the inside and the outside, I
assume you're running nat on this machine to translate internal machine
traffic.  It looks like you have all the routes you need, so my _guess_
at this point is that when the public address is up, the nat is preventing
traffic from going out that interface without being translated.  Once it
has a public address, it can't route properly on the 192.168.64/22 space.

Have a look at what you're using for nat.  If you can't see anything
obviously at odds, post your nat/firewall/related config.

I installed isc-dhcpd and it is working fine.

It would be perfect if there is a way dhcpd to read the nameservers

Not exactly, but you can have the dhclient rewrite the dhcpd.conf when
it gets new nameservers.  I used to do this; I ran it from
dhclient-exit-hooks, and it was a simple sed(1) command.  For a long
time, I've been running my own local caching nameserver, and directing
the DHCP clients to that, but I could dig out my old script if you
have trouble with it.  Although I would suggest you also consider
setting up your own local caching nameserver; the caching behaviour
can be a noticeable speed boost.

Re: How about a Start-Up Script that execute every 30 minutes for resolv.conf???

2007-01-15 Thread George Vanev

If you really want to copy resolv.conf from /root to /etc every 30 min
you don't need a startup script. Just add the following line in
/etc/crontab:
*/30 *   *   *   *   rootcp /root/resolv.conf
/etc/resolv.conf

I don't know what exactly are you trying to do, but this is not
quite a good decision.

Dear Jay  The FreeBSD Communities,

Thanks for putting your time and patience to help me out. Anyway, I
tried it out, both changing the rc.conf and the dhclient.conf (one at a
time). After that (for both of the ways), I did manage to stop the
resolv.conf from being overwritten after the PC reboot. However, when I
ping
192.168.52.1 or 192.168.52.2, the error msg says that there is no route
to both of the IP. Even after I add the default route by using command
line ... I am still unable to ping google.com.

Then, I undo everything by using VMWare... (including undo the DHCP
configuration in rc.conf) so that I am able to ping google.com again.

Since, I desperately needed to connect to the Internet at this point of
time, I create a file called resolv.conf in /root ... I am thinking how
can I create a script so that it can copy resolv.conf from /root to
/etc/resolv.conf every 30 minutes at start up - This is because I don't
wanna manually type in cp /root/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf every 30
minutes.

Hope somebody can share with me the simple coding. Thanks :)

Regards,
Linux Quest

 Dear Jay,

 Actually, I am running FreeBSD Unix on a VMWare machine (Host OS:
 Win2003, Guest OS: FreeBSD).

 Any ideas how I can disable / ignore the routing from the VMnet8?
 Below are the only VMWare NAT configuration that I have access to. No
 DHCP enable / disable option.


 Ethernet adapter VMware Network Adapter VMnet8:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.52.1
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.52.2


 When I install FreeBSD, I remember I did select some option to enable
 DHCP. Perhaps, I should disable the DHCP service in FreeBSD(Guest OS)
 - if so, any idea how do I do it?

 Thanks :)

 Linux Quest


Simple enough, then.

Edit /etc/rc.conf, and remove the line relating to the dhcp client.
Then add:
defaultrouter=192.168.51.2
hostname=boxname!
ifconfig_em0=inet 192.168.52.WHATEVERYOUWANT  netmask 255.255.255.0

Re: Command Execution Using Script - Similar to Windows Batch File-Like Script (Coding Help)

2007-01-16 Thread George Vanev

I'm sorry I have to tell you this, but your questions are pretty silly
for this mailing list. I suspect I am not the first that have told you this.

Anyway...
I think I saw someone answer you this question - how to make the
perl script. Obviously you have to install perl.

The easiest way is to create a shell script for this.

Try reading a little documentation, before ask such questions.

Dear FreeBSD Communities,

Lets say, I wanted to create a Perl script to execute a very simple nmap
command as listed below, may I know how do I do it?

unix# nmap 192.168.1.2

I know we need to save it in .pl extension. May I know what else I need to
do?

I have researched and google this for the entire week, but I still can't
find the solution. For example in Windows, all I need to do is to type nmap
192.168.1.2 and save it in a text file with the extension .bat - and
everything will be taken care of.

I hope someone can share with me the simple coding to solve this problem.

Thank you so much, guys :)

Re: Ethernet not recognized

2007-01-16 Thread George Vanev

If I'm not wrong your lan card must be VIA VT6103L.
In this case FreeBSD must support it.
Post your dmesg please.

Did you make any changes to the kernel?

Hi, I recently download FreeBSD 6.1, and I've installed in a new
computer a couple of times and in none of the installation recognize the
integrated Ethernet card.  In the instructions that I follow in one link
on your website, it says that is recognized automatically.  What am I
missing here?  I'm new at unix or linux, I've only used windows and I
like to learn something outside windows, but I didn't know it would be
such a headache.  The motherboard is a PC CHIPS P23G or something like
that.  I also tried to compile the X11 but it display an error trying to
connect to freebsd.org, obviously because of the Ethernet card not
recognized.  Can someone help me with this???

Execute script every time a specified user logs in (FreeBSD 6.1)

2007-01-17 Thread George Vanev

Every time user X (for example) logs in the system
I want to be executed some script.
The user must not have the permission to
change this behavior.
Also the script must be run as root.
Something like crontab, but depending on logins, not time

Any ideas?!

If this user logs in via SSH you can use the ForceCommand keyword in
sshd_config(5) to execute your script. The root part can be achieved with
sudo(8).

Thanks, nice idea. But it seams I can't use it.
Let me be more specific:
If user X logs in then I want to be run /usr/bin/script -aq /path/user_X
The file user_X must be protected from modifying/deleting

Could this be done?!
