w3 web browser on freebsd v6.2-R
greetings all just installed a compaq proliant 5500 with freebsd v6.2-release, works quite well in most respects. except for one small item. i installed from ports the w3.org web browser amaya, just did the basic make install and ater teh fetch and build, which didn't throw up any errors or complaints, as far as i could see .. i started up teh browser amaya-gtk and all it returned was this error message /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libintl.so.8 not found, required by amaya-gtk i scoured teh hard disk and found nothing, i looked on teh freebsd v6.2-release january 2007 4 cdrom set from freebsdmall.com (thanks guys) and the freebsd toolkit july 2006 (supposed to be fro 6.2 ??) the 6 cdrom set. i found no mention of any libintl.any.revision.at.all sugestions, ideas .. how do i go about resolving thiw situations, please. i am new to building/debuging software from ports, i normaly just install teh package and thats that. i live on teh end of a 14kb dialup modem link .. no adsl where i am, yet. sorry, i am not subscribed, please cc: me kind regards and much appreciations jonathan -- powered by ..

named and its hourly reports
first, i am not subscribed to teh list .. tooo much volume please use the Reply-To: for reply. i've just upgraded to freebsd v6.2 from a decade of using freebsd v2.2.5-release .. most reliably most stable, by comparison this v6.2 has been a nightmare over this last year .. so many changes so many things different from 2.2.5 stuff that was taken for granted that never tirned up as part of teh ansers to the few questions i'v managed to ask. so frustrating .. moan mode off! named now reports hourly Jul 15 06:55:10 hid named[617]: could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied Jul 15 06:55:10 hid named[617]: creating IPv4 interface tun0 failed; interface ignored Jul 15 07:55:10 hid named[617]: could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied Jul 15 07:55:10 hid named[617]: creating IPv4 interface tun0 failed; interface ignored Jul 15 08:55:10 hid named[617]: could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied Jul 15 08:55:10 hid named[617]: creating IPv4 interface tun0 failed; interface ignored Jul 15 09:55:10 hid named[617]: could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied Jul 15 09:55:10 hid named[617]: creating IPv4 interface tun0 failed; interface ignored Jul i've tried teh hand book, even muddled my way through google, teh only reference that has surfaced is a pointer to the fact the this error message is because named is running in a sandbox ??? d'ont know when that happened but freebsd now runs named from a sandbox .. this machine is a router/gateway and old 486 with a small scsi hdd that is rapidly filling up from this and others, to my mind silly error messages. is there some way to fix thins, is it a hard error, can i run named not in a sandbox, i'm also seeing other errors that seem (to my mind) to be related to this, but i am not sure so i'm keeping my mouth shut untill i can work it out and find teh real culprit .. i have mild brain damage that impinges on my cognitive process, ergo the poor typing (neurological damage) and problems with language/understanding. some pointers would be most appreciated .. i've been struggling with this for aover a year now and do not know where else to go ?? sorry for teh whinge most kind regards and gracious appreciations. jonathan -- powered by ..

By default .. you don't have to, but it's a very good idea these days. this machine is a router/gateway and old 486 with a small scsi hdd that is rapidly filling up from this and others, to my mind silly error messages. is there some way to fix thins, is it a hard error, can i run named not in a sandbox, i'm also seeing other errors that seem (to my mind) to be related to this, but i am not sure so i'm keeping my mouth shut untill i can work it out and find teh real culprit .. Jonathan, I don't think not running named in a sandbox would help here. after i got yuri post earlier i started to do some reading and it all making sence now and so does the sandbox stuff .. si it is staying. As Yuri pointed out, named is scanning all interfaces, default hourly. this is teh thing i'm having trouble with, why is named scaning anything ?? i've got two secondaries (my isp and a friend) for caamora.com.au, it was easy in bind v4, but not so with the new v8/9 config .. everything and teh kitchen sink gets defined. i am working my way through it, its a bit of hard going for me. I had a related problem on this laptop, with the same error messages - after a suspend/resume the (pccard) interface wasn't coming up quickly enough to beat named's (then overdue) interface scan, so named wouldn't bind to that interface. I fixed that by running the following script from /etc/rc.resume: #!/bin/sh # 28/12/6 called by rc.resume; wait for pccard resume to reattach xe0 .. doit() { sleep $1 # logger -p user.notice stopping named /etc/rc.d/named stop # + 31/12/6 missed restart once .. try: sleep 1 # logger -p user.notice restarting named /etc/rc.d/named start } delay=5; [ $1 ] delay=$1 doit $delay exit 0 # finish rc.resume so pccard resume can get on with it .. Note that /etc/rc.d/named restart didn't work for me, nor rndc restart. thanks, but i don't think this will help here, the machine is a permanently connected dialup ppp (now userland ppp, formerly kernel pppd). so it just sits there doing its thing untill teh ocasion thunderstorm grin or freebsd fallover, stuff happens. However there are perhaps better ways to tackle this, depending on which interface/s you *need* to have named listening on. If you need named to listen on the adddress of tun0 (pppoe, I suppose?) then you may need to this is teh bit i am failing to understand, why is named scaning tun0, what is it looking for .. it should be obvious, but sorry i am not making sence of this. i read teh 'listen-on' bit in dnsbind ed5 (after yuri tip off) and trying to workout if bind is using this 'listen-on' is it looking for internal dns queries or looking for stuff coming in from teh outside for the getting of domain transfer infromation for teh secondaries, umm slave servers out there, as mentioned earlier teh isp dns server and teh 'friend dns server' i am not quite clear on where that information goes in teh new scheme of things ?? do something like the above whenever ppp connects, or reconnects, from a suitable up-script for ppp. The disadvantage is clearing named's cache. If on the other hand you only need named listening on other interface/s than tun0, use the 'listen on { $address; };' option/s to specify the address/es to listen on. The default is '*', the addresses associated with each interface, as 'sockstat -4 | grep named' will show. Don't forget to include a 'listen on { 127.0.0.1; }' if you want localhost. some pointers would be most appreciated .. i've been struggling with this for aover a year now and do not know where else to go ??

gigabyte GA-71XE4 (single amd athlon cpu motherboard
greetings all, i just repaired my old machine by replacing the damaged motherboard with these items motherboard: Gigabyte GA-71XE4 (chipset AMD-75?, with single AMD Athlon cpu) audio: Creative SB PCI 128 (CT-4815) video: nVidia GeForce 4 MX440 SE nic: D-Link DFE-530TX+ 10/100BaseTX (be replaced with intel 10/100) freebsd v5.2 and 5.3 boots no problems works well but freebsd v7 locks solid right when it get to teh load image to/from md0 device this happens when i use teh -release cdrom to install freebsd. i looked on google and on marc tying for gigabyte/ga-71xe4 and various combinations of teh whole chain of bits, also tried specific freebsd lists (-hardware and -questions) and drew blanks .. guess this will change that .. grin. after a bit of thinking i tried booting in 'Safe mode it booted properly and went on to complete the installation and is now working as well as i have seen freebsd work on my other machines. after starting to use safe mode i had no further problems witht eh boot/startup lockups. another thing thats confused me is how freebsd can work out the ide cable is teh wrong one, dose it really make that much difference ?? i have attached the /var/run/dmesg.run and cut down version of /var/log/messages. please reply to address in headers .. i'm not subscribed to questions- some light would be appreciated on this whole acpi issue and if i need nvidia drivers to make teh video card work in normal/text mode ?? much thanks and kind regards jonathan /var/run/dmesg.run Copyright (c) 1992-2008 The FreeBSD Project.

greetings all, firstly, i am not subscribed, please cc: responces, appreciated. i have been using freebsd v2.2.5-release (as my domains mx host on a 486dx33 .. that was upgraded after 20 years running with 6 years on v2.2.5 to a p5-133 mhz into which i moved teh whole scsi harddisk ssubsystem (card and drives) ther it ran v 2.2.5-r faultlessly untill last january when i cleaned of teh hard drives reformated averything and installed freebsd v6.2-release !! than after a few weeks of settling down and setting up every thing worked well, as expected, then the sendmail nightmares started ... basically the system could not send mail anywhere !!! cutting long story short, it was basically my having to relearn teh whole universe .. there were more differences than i had planned for and it was an uphill battle relearning essentially everything i had learned about freebsd over th previous ten years. about 3 weeks ago things started to make sence, herebouts, slowly it is clearing up, as i started to understand sendmail and getting teh configurations right .. most of teh poorly configured hosts i've now cleaned up and are working properly, but, one ... i have now got one left and like teh linux chappie who i found on google who had a similar out of teh blue experience like mine, (about 2003) one day sendmail worked then teh veyr next it was defereing everytingh .. just like here. this chappie had replaced his nic, i've not done angthiny like that hppen here, the machine is the machine and no hardware has been changed ?? i donot understand what is going on here .. i've included all teh differnt bits in teh maillog file here is teh /var/log/maillog exerpt Jun 9 00:00:00 reality newsyslog[15991]: logfile turned over Jun 9 03:01:05 reality sendmail[16485]: grew WorkList for /var/spool/clientmqueue to 2000 Jun 9 03:06:36 reality sendmail[17417]: m58H6aGk017417: from=root, size=12938, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jun 9 03:06:36 reality sendmail[17417]: m58H6aGk017417: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=42938, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:40 reality sendmail[17475]: m58H6dJG017475: from=root, size=137243, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jun 9 03:06:40 reality sendmail[17475]: m58H6dJG017475: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=167243, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: grew WorkList for /var/spool/clientmqueue to 2000 Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m58H6aGk017417: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:13, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=132938, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m58H6dJG017475: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:10, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=257243, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m57LAP8l013868: to=root, delay=19:56:24, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=3644350, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m57LAP8m013868: to=root, delay=19:56:24, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=3768123, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m57H6qfr013304: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=23:59:57, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=4542984, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m57H6u1Q013363: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=23:59:53, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=4666757, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m56MMWd3009824: to=root, delay=1+18:44:17, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=7861512, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m56LMVd3009703: to=root, delay=1+19:44:17, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=8054226, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m56LMVd4009703: to=root, delay=1+19:44:17, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=8177393, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m56ILDAU009315: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=1+22:45:36, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=8670146, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address Jun 9 03:06:49 reality sendmail[17463]: m56H6f3Y009045: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=2+00:00:08, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=8952860,
