Re: vlan trunking with a powerconnect 5224
On a lark I just executed `ifconfig trunk0 up` and now my trunk is working! And, to make it come up automatically, I just added the single line up to hostname.trunk0... BTW, the trunk interface is not documented in hostname.if(5) Thanks anyways, Kent Kent Watsen wrote: Looking at the output from `ifconfig` (see below), I notice that the trunk0 doesn't show that its UP - why wouldn't it be up?

Re: looking for openbsd friendly server vendor
Lord Sporkton ??: Perhaps i was wrong but i thought openbsd was only 32 bit for now? Yup, you're wrong. There's amd64 port, which runs fine on all x86 64-bit CPUs.
Test, please ignore...
Just testing; sorry for inconvenience. -- pozdrawiam / regards Zbigniew Baniewski
panic: bogus long slot station count 0
It's been an interesting two days. About a week ago, my OLPC XO arrived in the mail; I turned it on and tried to find my wireless network. Almost immediately my family complains there's no internet! Panic on the OpenBSD router. Well, I had my work cut out for me because I'd never setup serial console before. Thanks to FAQ; changes on router were quite easy (even though it's i386 and there were lots of caveats about maybe it won't work). Then to find a null-modem cable (I knew I had usb/serial cable, but it took some time to find it). I could have done it with just the null-modem cable; but that would mean I'd use a windows system for console and I thought if I was going to do this; I'd do it right - OpenBSD all the way. I did use a windows machine to make sure everything was setup and hookup correctly; since I had used hyperterm and null modems cables in another life. Then came a BIG problem (for me). What program does one use on OpenBSD to talk on the serial port? I figured the answer had to be out there somewhere (it was - 'tip'); but it took me HOURS to find it. By comparison, it took only a few minutes to learn how to modify /etc/remote to talk to usb/serial cable on ttyU0. Then I had to wait for the people in the house to stop using the internet... panic is easily reproducible... - power up the OLPC XO - goto neighbourhood - click on icon for my router. - the OpenBSD router panics. I'm not sure what to include, but here is ifconfig, trace, ps, dmesg. $ ifconfig lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 33208 groups: lo inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 fxp0: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 lladdr 00:06:29:33:a4:91 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 inet6 fe80::206:29ff:fe33:a491%fxp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 vr0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 lladdr 00:50:ba:0a:33:9d media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active inet6 fe80::250:baff:fe0a:339d%vr0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ral0: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 lladdr 00:12:17:99:70:2d groups: wlan media: IEEE802.11 autoselect mode 11g hostap status: active ieee80211: nwid XX chan 11 bssid 00:12:17:99:70:2d nwkey not displayed 100dBm inet 10.0.0.2 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255 inet6 fe80::212:17ff:fe99:702d%ral0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 enc0: flags=0 mtu 1536 pppoe0: flags=8851UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1492 dev: vr0 state: session sid: 0x395 PADI retries: 0 PADR retries: 0 time: 00:15:51 sppp: phase network authproto pap authname b1XX groups: pppoe egress inet6 fe80::206:29ff:fe33:a491%pppoe0 - prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6 inet 65.95.136.148 -- 64.230.197.50 netmask 0x bridge0: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 groups: bridge pflog0: flags=141UP,RUNNING,PROMISC mtu 33208 groups: pflog panic: bogus long slot station count 0 Stopped at Debugger+0x4: leave RUN AT LEAST 'trace' AND 'ps' AND INCLUDE OUTPUT WHEN REPORTING THIS PANIC!

Computer name question
I recently changed the name of a computer with OpenBSD 4.2 by editing the /etc/myname file. That seems to have taken care of the renaming almost everywhere. I also changed the name in the /etc/hosts file as well. However, when I send an e-mail from it using mail, the from address shows the original name, not the changed name. Also, if I don't specify a hostname for the to address, it appends the old hostname instead of the new hostname. The configuration file in /etc/mail doesn't have the original name anywhere. Neither does the mc file. Does anyone know what else I need to change? Thanks, Eric Johnson [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature]

Xenocara, defaults and xorg.conf means double loading of settings and modules
Using Xenocara from and with snapshot from last week, but same behaviour for longer time; I noticed that when no xorg.conf is there, my X was using less memory and glxgears was giving better results then with xorg.conf based on my system. After some searching in the logs and comparing those with my xorg.conf, I found out that although my xorg.conf is used, still the defaults which are compiled in X, are also used. This means that although you disable some modules, they are still loaded, the same for the path settings. And worser, when they are the defaults and in your xorg.conf, they are used twice... Now I have disabled the path settings and module settings in my xorg.conf like this; Section Files # USED BY DEFAULT: # RgbPath /usr/X11R6/share/X11/rgb # ModulePath /usr/X11R6/lib/modules # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/ # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/OTF # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/ # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/ EndSection Section Module # USED BY DEFAULT: # Load extmod # Load dbe # Load glx # Load freetype # Load type1 # Load record # Load dri EndSection And X is using 17Mb now instead of 19Mb, with still all modules and path settings as mentioned above used, because they are the built-in defaults. I think it would be better when the defaults are disabled when using a configuration file to prevent behaviour like this. Jan

Multiple CPU systems don't work like that, generally. In general, you either don't want it or the system can't do it. Firewall software and routing run in the kernel and therefore have very high priority. They will run regardless of any user services except in rare and very ugly cases. Partitioning like you are asking for is done on extremely large and complex systems. hope this helps geoff steckel well my main concern was that things like fileserver, monitoring, hosting, other user services might spike the cpu and cause degradation on the firewall/router functions, however Geoff's statement seems to indicate that shouldnt be a problem -- -Lawrence
Kernel Compile Crashes
First off, I'd like to say that I'm very, very new to OpenBSD, and that this is also my first mailing list message ever, so I'd like to apologize in advance if (when) I make a really bone-headed mistake(s). So here's what happened: Last November, I bought a copy of OpenBSD 4.2(-release). My goal was to install it on an older i386 machine with a couple decent-sized hard drives and make it a file (etc.) server with RAID 1. To that end, I tried to recompile the GENERIC kernel with RAID support. At the same, I decided it would be good to update to the 4.2-stable branch, since I had to recompile anyway. Somewhere along the way, the compile didn't work, so I thought maybe -stable isn't for me, so I tried to do the same with the 4.2-release code; this failed as well. Then, for the sake of being thorough, I tried compiling GENERIC with both -stable and -release sources with the default config file, and these also failed, and since they all failed the same way, it appeared to me that it was neither RAID support nor the -stable branch that was causing the problem. (Just to be absolutely positive, I've also reinstalled from both CD and floppy/http, and have acquired the sources via CD, http, and AnonCVS, and none of the above made any difference.) At first I wondered if it was a memory problem (it is, after all, an old machine), so I ran Memtest86+ for 13 straight hours (7 passes) with absolutely 0 errors. This was the point at which I knew I was in over my head, so I brought over a friend who's far better at programming than I am.

ksh history question
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I've read the ksh man page, googled for days, can't seem to come up with the answer. Either I put no mention of HISTFILE and HISTSIZE in $HOME/.profile and I don't have a lasting history file of previous commands. Or, I put it in and I do have a history file, but the HISTSIZE setting has no effect. It doesn't change and the file grows and grows. Currently I have it set as shown below to save my command line history: HISTFILE=.ksh_history HISTSIZE=50 I've tried using .ksh_history$$ to have a different file each login, and know I can run a cronjob nightly to clean them up if I want to, but I can't figure out how to make the history turn over just like it's supposed to with the HISTSIZE value without all that other mess.

2 questions from new user: wsconscfg and /usr/local
Hallo, I'm pretty new to OpenBSD, I've installed recently newest stable 4.2 (i386). I would to ask here about two things, this time: - starting the system I'm loading different VGA charset - unfortunately, although system initializes consoles by default in VT220 emulation mode, wsconscfg (which I had to use when loading new charset) switches them to VT100, of limited (comparing to VT220) functionality. I see no parameter to keep VT220. Is it possible some other way, which I don't know yet? - I noticed, that the default path, where software from binaries and ports gets unpacked, is /usr/local hierarchy; unfortunately, it's also the traditional default of every individual source *.tar.gz package - such way the software ported to OpenBSD gets mixed with any other package, which I had installed. Wouldn't be reasonable to create new hierarchy, especially for the native OpenBSD software (from binary packages and ports) - I mean something like /usr/pkg in NetBSD? What do you think? -- pozdrawiam / regards Zbigniew Baniewski

Re: Petition to VIA
I don't know if it's known but there's a online petition for VIA. http://www.petitiononline.com/vialinux/petition.html The petition authors don't get it... Other manufacturers, such as Intel, cooperate with the Free Software community providing Linux drivers as good as the Windows ones, drivers as good as the Windows ones, they think this is a good thing? There are only a few viable, reasonable or even rationale options: 1. VIA could develop decent Linux drivers that allow Linux users to experience the same level of stability and performance as Windows users do on the same hardware. This would show VIA respect for its clients and would not cost much: A small group of developers, with access to hardware specs, can improve current drivers easily and quickly. 2. VIA could release full internal hardware specifications to the Linux community, so that Open Source developers could develop working drivers. 3. VIA could simply say that it doesn't support Linux (which is true). This should be clear in all VIA communications (website, product boxes, etc). This would prevent misinformed buyers, which plan on using Linux, from buying hardware based on it. the last two, I'd go for, but I wouldn't sign a petition giving 1 as an option (let alone the first, implying it's what they would like the most). developers want docs, not unmaintainable vendor crap GPL drivers.
Installation of base system without xbase42 disallow ports compiling.
Hello all I'm two day new to OpenBSD but 8 years old to Linux world. Yesterday I've successfully got running OpenBSD 4.2 under VMware server. Due to limitation on internet channel bandwidth i decided install only required packages and skip recommended. Later I tried to install bash from ports and from packages but without any luck. In both cases installation process was stopped on resolving dependencies for the gettext packages. After some researches i found that gettext depends on the expat library but did not found it on my system, among packages. Only reference in ports. I tried to build expat from ports but after make i got. === expat-2.0.0p0 -- expat comes with OpenBSD as of release 4.2. I was weird for me because of I did not found expat on the system and on the packages. I tried to find something via google and get link to the article on upgrade from OpenBSD 4.1 to OpenBSD 4.2. Where was noticed that expat now is located in xbase42.tgz packages which was in recommended section. I think that such behavior of the installer could be treated like a bug and package xbase42 should be moved to required section or at least in the installation documents should be described such trouble. What do you think about? Thanks in advance Kyrylo Klimakov NIK-HDL KK2640-RIPE
packet loss and intel dual nic

Can be any improvement from changing the external nic from em2 to em0 in our case? Can this packet loss be sure coming from cable problems or is something with interrupts? Changing from bsd.mp to bsd will improve? Systat show me 14k interrupts in total, but the cpu is 99% idle.

Console mode problems
Hallo, I'm new to OpenBSD, I've recently installed newest version - 4.2 (i386) - and noticed some problems while working in console mode: 1. I'm loading console font set, which is including national characters - the first problem is, that wsconscfg doesn't want to init consoles using default VT220 emulation. Everytime, when I've got to use wsconscfg (it's written into /etc/rc.local anyway...), it's using VT100 - although the system itself seems to be able to initialize consoles as VT220 (when not using wsconscfg). I would to keep VT220 emulation on all consoles, because it's the most comfortable way to have proper colours in curses-based programs (when setting TERM=wsvt25). Unfortunately, wsconscfg doesn't accept vt220 as parameter. Can it be changed? 2. The second problem is with function keys, especially annoying when using f.e. Midnight Commander. Playing with terminal settings, I noticed that changing - in the section wsvt25 of /usr/share/misc/termcap - the definition: tc=vt220 to: tc=ecma+color seems to be a cure for this problem (no side effects noticed). I'm not sure, whether this problem with F-keys is caused by faulty terminal definition, or bug in ncurses rather? 3. The third problem is, that even having console initialized as VT220 with wsvt25 definition (modified the way described above) there are still some little false colour choices anyway (it can be seen f.e. on the bottom line of mc, the one with description of function keys). But when one runs screen (having wsvt25 on VT220), at last the console is working fully properly. Well, this third paragraph is not a question, but an example of workaround how to obtain the proper results rather. But perhaps someone does know answer to previous two? -- pozdrawiam / regards Zbigniew Baniewski

Xenocara; prevent loading path and modules twice
I noticed that when using no xorg.conf, X was using less memory then when using my xorg.conf. After some searching, and comparing logs I noticed X is having some defaults built in, which are used always; with or without xorg.conf. After disabling those lines in my xorg.conf X was using two megabytes less, with still the same paths and modules loaded: Section Files # RgbPath /usr/X11R6/share/X11/rgb # ModulePath /usr/X11R6/lib/modules # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/ # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/OTF # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/ # FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/ EndSection Section Module # Load extmod # Load dbe # Load glx # Load freetype # Load type1 # Load record # Load dri EndSection I guess it would be better when X was not using these defaults when the configuration file is used. It seems that mentioned modules are loaded always, even when not mentioned in xorg.conf. And worser, when mentioned (same for path), X is using 19M instead of 17M here with same functionality.

This time I would to ask here about two things: - starting the system I'm loading different VGA charset - unfortunately, although system initializes consoles by default in VT220 emulation mode, wsconscfg (which I had to use when loading new charset) switches them to VT100, of limited (comparing to VT220) functionality. I see no parameter to keep VT220. Is there some other way available, which I don't know yet? - I noticed, that default path, where software from binary pkg and ports gets unpacked, is /usr/local hierarchy - unfortunately, it's also the traditional default of every individual source *.tar.gz package - such way the software ported to OpenBSD gets mixed with any other package, which I had installed. Wouldn't be reasonable to create new hierarchy, especially for the native OpenBSD software (from binary packages and ports) - I mean: something like /usr/pkg in NetBSD? What do you think? -- pozdrawiam / regards Zbigniew Baniewski
One more try (sorry) - please ignore...
Testing: still problems... -- pozdrawiam / regards Zbigniew Baniewski

Re: PCI ADSL Card on OpenBSD
On Sun, Jan 27, 2008 at 05:25:27PM +1100, Mikel Lindsaar wrote: I have been googling around and found various answers, but some of them conflict and so I wanted to ask the list: What PCI ADSL card do you use in your OpenBSD box? The use case will be a rack mounted firewall (thus the wish for a PCI card to sit inside the server) handling an ADSL connection for backup access and bulk traffic. The card and drivers need to be reliable and just handle the line as this will be the backup way in. Preferably I want a card that is going to do the ADSL protocol layer itself and not hand anything off to the CPU which will be handling a transparent firewall. Should be able to support PPPoE, ADSL2+ would be good to have, though plain v1 ADSL is also fine if the driver / card combination is more robust. Use an external modem and terminate the pppoe session on your OpenBSD box. The only PCI based ADSL card around is based on a very old chipset that is not ADSL2+ capable and people using the card had stability issues on OpenBSD. -- :wq Claudio
Re: Petition to VIA

Link: http://www.petitiononline.com/vialinux/petition.html Kind regards, Sebastian I still say the best petition is to avoid buying VIA products - and then post about it in a public forum, list the alternatives you chose for your task, and send the link to VIA. If enough people would follow this simple process then Via would react. The TdR method is also sometimes effective, but it seems to have diminishing returns the larger the target corporation. I haven't seen or heard of a single company being persuaded by an online petition. That's not to say that it couldn't or hasn't happened - I've just never heard of it. You would think that people would hear more about them if online petitions of companies were indeed successful. Corporations are concerned with one thing - profit. Take from their profit, be vocal about the reasons in a public forum while listing alternatives (both of which also threaten their profit), and make the corporation aware of it. They will then be forced to address the situation or continue to risk a negative and public boycott. Breeno
Error in softraid documentation?
I recently noticed that the examples in the softraid man page http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=softraid contain many lines such as echo d a\na\n\n\n\nRAID\nw\nq\n | disklabel -E wd1 Of course, not every version of echo interprets \n as a newline. In fact, /bin/echo treats \n as a literal backslash followed by a literal n. The version of echo that is built into csh also interprets it as a literal backslash followed by a literal n. But the softraid man page certainly intends it to be interpreted as a newline. So, is the man page in error? Or are the examples in man pages only intended for use in the default shell? (Note that ksh is the default shell, and ksh has a built-in echo command that interprets \n as a newline.)

Re: Archiving pkg's added by pkg_add -u

The normal way to slurp down packages of on an installed machine is to run pkg_add -uin with PKG_CACHE set (in fact, I had to tweak pkg_add -n behavior right after implementing PKG_CACHE to make sure it would download the whole package). Then, once your full set is downloaded, you can pkg_add them. Even better - I can drop that script (it's quite old, and predates pkg_add -u IIRC)! I am a huge fan of the pkg_* tools, and their improvement over the time I have used OpenBSD has been nothing short of incredible. The only issue I have with pkg_add is that I find the options overwhelming (e.g. -r and -u confuse me every time, as a quick read of the man page suggests they do virtually the same thing). When you say the normal way I expect most people had no idea that -uin and PKG_CACHE in combination do the right thing. Perhaps this could be added to the man page or the FAQ so it can become the normal way? I'm sure you know a number of useful tricks with the pkg_* tools that the rest of us remain sadly ignorant of, and it would be great if such things became more widely known. Of course, it's entirely possible that I'm the only person who didn't realise that the above was possible, in which case please pretend I never said anything :) Laurie -- http://tratt.net/laurie/ -- Personal http://convergepl.org/ -- The Converge programming language

vlan trunking with a powerconnect 5224
I successfully have two vlans running over one physical interface connected to my managed switch (a PowerConnect 5224), but I can't get the same two vlans to work when running over a trunk interface spanning four physical interfaces. Before: (this works, but only uses one physical interface) - # cat hostname.gem0 inet xx.xxx.xxx.x 255.255.255.0 NONE [public ip masked] # cat hostname.hme0 up # cat hostname.vlan2 inet 10.0.2.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 2 vlandev hme0 # cat hostname.vlan3 inet 10.0.3.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 3 vlandev hme0 After: (this doesn't work) # cat hostname.gem0 inet xx.xxx.xxx.x 255.255.255.0 NONE [public ip masked] # cat hostname.hme0 up # cat hostname.hme1 up # cat hostname.hme2 up # cat hostname.hme3 up # cat hostname.trunk0 trunkproto roundrobin trunkport hme0 trunkport hme1 trunkport hme2 trunkport hme3 # cat hostname.vlan2 inet 10.0.2.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 2 vlandev trunk0 # cat hostname.vlan3 inet 10.0.3.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 3 vlandev trunk0 Assuming all looks good above, the changes I made on the switch were: - create a bogus vlan (id ) - make the four ports untagged members of vlan id - remove the four ports as members of vlan id 1 - make the four ports be members of trunk 1 - make trunk 1 tagged member of vlans 2 and vlan 3 But no traffic gets through. For instance, ssh-ing through the firewall and switch to target results in Network is unreachable during which pflog shows a match for pass out on vlan2; `tcpdump -n -i trunk0` shows nothing; `tcpdump -n -i vlan2` shows nothing; heck, even `tcpdump -n -i hme0` shows nothing. Likewise, `tcpdump` on the target shows no traffic. Any ideas? Thanks, Kent

So, ignoring things that can't be changed, the release documentation that is already on the CD and in the release, where do you wish us to make these changes? Original plan was to chop up the developers responsible for this, tattoo a note about it on each piece and mail the bits to people who bought the CD sets, but the postal service objected to this. There was also some question about the long term impact on the sales of CDs, so plastering it all over the website was considered a reasonable alternative. ;) (Slightly more seriously: Theo himself charged me with making sure this was plastered all over the things people would be looking at, and told me to make it clear it was an error, and would be fixed for the next release. upgrade43.html will include a bit about removing xbase42.tgz if you had to install it for 4.2) Nick.

Yeah, I tried the HISTFILESIZE too. What's really weird is, just all of a sudden, it started working! But, instead of it starting with the number 1 on the beginning, with HISTSIZE set at 50, e.g., you run 'fc -l 0' you might see the beginning number 163 with the most current command number being 211. It never goes all the way to 50 commands, usually just 48 before dropping one off the tail end. This is no problem, I just must be misunderstanding the man page. Another thing I found out is, after copying $HOME/.profile to $HOME.kshrc, removing all mention of HISTFILE HISTSIZE from .kshrc putting only the following in .profile HISTSIZE=50;export HISTSIZE HISTFILE=.ksh_history;export HISTFILE ENV=$HOME/.kshrc export ENV it works just the same as if there was no .kshrc file everything was still all in .profile. I've got it running one way on one box the other way on another box, they're both working. Why they didn't work before is a mystery to me. But, I learned something anyway about being able to do it two different ways.

TEST EMAILS
Do *NOT* send test emails to the list. If you think that you're not getting emails, or your posts aren't making it to the list, follow this friendly advice. 1) Check the archives. If there's nothing there, that should tell you the lists are a) under maintenance, b) having problems. Either way, rest assured that the OpenBSD listserv administrator already knows about it. 2) Check your subscription to the list (http://lists.openbsd.org/). Maybe you've been tweaking your settings recently and changed your delivery options. 3) Check your own mailserver. Are you getting mail normally? This is probably the least likely, unless you really are having other mail problems. REGARDLESS, DO NOT SEND TEST EMAILS TO THE LIST. Nobody wants your spam. Least of all the rest of the members who have to routinely wade through the noise ratio that has increased exponentially of late. As I mentioned in #1, the list administrator will certainly be aware of any problems much earlier than you could have. --- Jason Dixon DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net

PoPToP Vulnerability Question
Dear Misc: I've been asked to look into an issue on a i386 system running OpenBSD 3.7. I realize this is rather out-of-date, so feel free to ignore this question if it's inappropriate... The machine is running poptop-1.1.4.b4p1. Someone did an audit and declared PoPToP servers prior to version 1.1.4-bs are vulnerable to a buffer overflow. I notice that even the current version of OpenBSD has a package for poptop-1.1.4.b4p1, so I find it hard to believe that this version contains a known buffer overflow. My question is - what information can I provide the auditor to assure them of this? Thanks in advance for any comments. For what it's worth I am aware of alternatives to PoPToP such as OpenVPN. RPK.

openBSD 4.2 and LSI raid
Hi All, I am trying to mirror an openBSD4.2 install on a Sun v20z box. That box has LSI 1030 internal raid controller. According to the LSI manual, I reboot the box into the LSI tool by pressing Ctrl-C while booting. When I try to mark the primary disk, it says Can't keep data. Incompatible partition. So, it could not mirror a disk with already installed openBSD4.2 partitions. I did a research and found the similar problem already reported for Linux installations, and Sun released a workaround for it. However, I cannot find anything about openBSD installations. So, has anyone run into that problem? If so, how did you succeed mirroring an openBSD4.2 disk on such a hardware platform? Thanks, Rami Sik

(Note that ksh is the default shell, and ksh has a built-in echo command that interprets \n as a newline.) well, the man page is not exactly in error - it just presupposes the use of the default shell. unfortunately /bin/echo does not support character sequences such as \n, even though they are noted as mandated by XSI. bummer. marco: can we use printf(1) instead? i think we'd need an extra \n (no idea why): echo d a\na\n\n\n\nRAID\nw\nq\n would become: printf d a\na\n\n\n\nRAID\nw\nq\n\n we'd maybe need to replace all echo commands with printf. it would at least be more portable. jmc
