Re: Firefox can't display any web page

There was a thread about this recently. Either manually change the config or 
use a plugin but disable the content encoding header and it magically works 
again.

Re: rust 1.39 and errno

[Zachary Crownover]

The libc crate on dfly is very hit or miss. We’re a tier III platform for Rust 
which basically means maybe it builds maybe it doesn’t but there’s some code in 
the base to sort of try but commits have no requirement to pass any builds 
against it to be accepted. With that, one point release might build for dfly 
and one point release off might not. Another thing is that what you build and 
what you depend on can have varying version requirements, so any number of 
things potentially pulling in libc could be pulling a different version and 
that version has a decent chance of not building. From my experience that’s 
been the biggest pain point of doing any Rust development on dfly. There is a 
code bounty on www.dragonflybsd.org for getting a consistent working build of 
libc for Rust. I don’t know if more incentive on it would be entice more work, 
but I maintain hope.

Re: Can't connect to IRC

[Zachary Crownover]

Some servers on EFnet are less reliable, there is only one server in the 
network that allows SSL connections for IRC. Several list it on the site but 
don’t work at all. The only one that consistently does falls over a fair bit so 
I’ll somewhat often get a lot of noise in irssi about reconnecting attempts to 
it.  I think the network needs more resiliency and better redundancy for SSL 
connections, but frankly, DragonFly BSD is just a user of the network like all 
of us emailing here and have no power in fixing the issue. At least none that 
I’m aware of.

Re: Computers for cross-platform development

[Zachary Crownover]

I double the sentiment for virtualization if your intent is a continuous 
integration system for testing and artifact building. As Justin mentioned, the 
frequency of the runs adjusts the value of VM vs physical. I don’t know if 
Travis CI supports every OS on your list, but it might and you could set up a 
testing framework with it. If it’s open source work it could also be free 
through them and you wouldn’t have to worry about computer costs at all.

Re: what firewall to use ? outdated/misguided/whatever documentation ?

[Zachary Crownover]

I use pf on DragonFly and it’s probably worth noting that pretty much any 
FreeBSD documentation on pf will hold equally true because of DragonFly getting 
it from FreeBSD. Sephe did a lot of work on it a few years back with Dillon to 
greatly improve performance. In any event, newer pf on OpenBSD has a slightly 
different syntax and FreeBSD and DragonFly both use the old style syntax.

Re: Segmentation Fault

that's not how sudo works. you are allowed to run specific commands allowed
by your group or user. wheel defaults to being allowed to run anything. if
not allowed you're denied access, not segfault.

Re: State of Rust on DragonFly

[Zachary Crownover]

That won't happen unless we have an active maintainer for it with Rust that
can get the project to move DragonFly from tier 3 to at least tier 2. I'd
like to take an active role in that though.

Re: QEMU upstream marked DragonFly BSD as unsupported host systems in 2.9 release

[Zachary Crownover]

Yes, running qemu in a dfly system will be unsupported. Running a dfly
instance as a vm on a supported host will be the same.

Vultr works quite well, but you have to submit a support ticket to unblock
SMTP traffic from your system, otherwise mail will just pool up on the

Re: Future big ticket items in Dragonfly?

Feel free to make a bounty for those on the site. Mention it to a group and
maybe more will commit to it if you're so inclined. It's not a guarantee,
the people here care more about the community and the technology than
money, but I suppose if they were already considering doing any of those
bounties then the money might make them consider prioritizing it, or it
could help bring attention from outsiders. Still, it's a way to persist
your thoughts on the site as well as gauge a relative level of interest
based on how much people are willing to devote to it.

 I am a bit late in getting back to the discussion on this, but I see it
 has been lively.

 As far as committing resources for particular itches, if there were some
 sort of a guide as to what it would potentially cost in developer time to
 add a feature, I would be interested in working to fundraise for smaller
 lower level features. I cannot commit code myself, but am definitely
 interested in helping in areas that might also benefit others.

 A few small ticket items that have been of interest for me (and perhaps
 to others) are:

 1) Installer is capable of handling special characters for use in
 passwords;

 2) Installer and console are unicode-aware (like in OpenBSD) so that
 typing in names that have umlauts and accents isn't an issue;

 3) It would be nice if the autoboot_delay=0 setting could be implemented
 in /boot/loader.conf. Earlier this year Matt Dillon commented the following
 pertaining to this: If someone wants to submit code to allow the
 autoboot_delay=0 case, I'll accept it.

 4) I look forward to the multiple copies feature under HAMMER2. But this
 is also a feature that could be useful for users of HAMMER1 systems until
 HAMMER2 is production ready. Is this difficult to do in HAMMER1?

 That would be my shortlist. I think others have already commented on
 bringing in security features from OpenBSD, but I don't think any of those
 are small ticket items.

  You may also use the source repo. You should be able to
  check out tagged revision v4.0.5 before you start the
  build:

  'git checkout v4.0.5'.



  In case you want  to follow a release branch, let us
  say 4.0, you can check this revision out with:

  'git checkout DragonFly_RELEASE_4_0' and update
  your local copy as usual with

  'git pull'.




  The master branch really is the devoted to DragonFly
  development and that is you get every developer commit
  whereas the release branches only contain revisions of
  DragonFly releases.

  Hi,



  you need to check out the master branch from DragonFly
  source repo:



  cd /usr; make src-create  make
  src-checkout



  You should have checked out master branch after that.
  You might check that with:



  cd /usr/src; git branch



  which should write * master to the
  terminal.



  To actually upgrade the system, you need to issue the
  following steps with optional steps in paranthesis:



  1. cd /usr/src

  2. (git pull) updates the sources to the latest devel
  version

  3. make buildworld  make buildkernel

  4. make installkernel  make installworld
   make upgrade

  5. reboot



  In step 3, you may use make -j[number of
  available CPU cores] ... to speed up the build
  processes.

Re: Which Firewall?

[Zachary Crownover]

For what it's worth, there is a lot of documentation on pf, arguably far
more than there is ipfw due to it's levels of usage. With regard to
pfsense, it gives you an easy to use webui where you don't really have to
know all that much about writing rules or setting anything up, or how to
install and configure the VPN aspects, and lets you use on old FreeBSD
build with patching to that. DragonFly wouldn't provide you with the webui
you're used to, but you would notice better performance.

 Thanks all.

 dragonfly. Just a hunch)

Forcefully remove the conflicting packages, then install the other two.

 What's the best way to resolve this conflict? I want samba4 and git on the

 In the past, I think I was able to force git to install without krb5, but
 after upgrading to pkg-1.3.7 it seems as if that trick no longer works.
 The way I worked around it was to install p5-GSSAPI from source and remove
 the Makefile.Dragonfly file, which is what was creating the krb5
 dependency. So, I solved my problem but it feels like a hack.

Re: NFS and Samba Servers in DragonFlyBSD

http://www.unixmen.com/how-to-install-samba-in-freebsd-9/

For the most part, following that will get you going for Samba. I think the
service name needs to be changed for rc.conf and the config file might need
to be adjusted slightly, but other than that, it'll get you up and running.
If I recall correctly, it's samba4 instead of samba.

 Good evening everybody,

 I did wanted to test drive Dragonfly BSD a bit, but I'm somehow stuck.

 I create a virtual machine with VMware and installed Dragonfly but I can't
 get networking to work properly.
 The adapter seems to work fine, I can ping various IP's. However when I
 try to ping a host by name it doesn't work.

 In the resolv.conf I did enter the following lines:
 nameserver 192.168.178.1
 nameserver 217.237.262.51
 nameserver 217.237.149.205
 Whereas the former one is my router (Fritz!Box 7362 SL) and the later ones
 are the name servers of my provider (if I'm not totally mistaken).

 In the rc.conf I did enter the following network settings:
 hostname=dragonfly(I'm a creative genius)
 ifconfig_em0=inet 192.168.178.202 netmask 255.255.255.0
 defaultrouter=192.168.178.1

 The network is set to bridged mode in the VM settings and my router does
 list the VM as new device.

 Now my router is set to dual stack mode (IPv4/IPv6). At the moment I'm
 using static IP's for IPv4 and dynamic ones (DHCP) for IPv6.
 In the beginning (after installation) there was a line ifconfig_em0=DHCP
 but it didn't work for me (I know horrible error description), so I did
 switch to the static address.

 Now this isn't a high priority, but it would be great if you have any
 hints to where my mistake might be or what I could have probably forgotten.

 Best regards,
 Christoph Harder

Re: Starting application daemons

[Zachary Crownover]

I put things into rc.conf, I don't know if that's bad practice, but that's
what I do. rcstart, rcstop, rcrestart for the daemons. If that doesn't
work, you can try the older way of more directly referencing it.
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/servicename status|start|restart|stop or /etc/rc.d/

 What is the correct way to start application daemons on DF? I am trying
 to start sshguard on the boot.

 I added

 sshguard_enable=YES

 into /etc/rc.conf.local.

 Note that I also have rc.conf which doesn't contain any reference to
 ssh_guard.

 I also noticed that Red Hat/ FreeBSD sheme for starting daemons

 service sshguard start

 is not implemented in DF. Can somebody confirm this?

Re: pf slows down the network

[Zachary Crownover]

Are you able to post your pf.conf? It could be the way you have it
configured, because I'm using it in numerous systems and don't see any
degradation in network performance.

No. Reformat will be required.

 Will HAMMER - HAMMER2 without recreation of the...volume be allowed?  I

 Also: can a pfs be directly passed to vkernel or qemu as a block device,

Re: 3.8 release plans

[Zachary Crownover]

Not that I'm defending an error, but why use UFS when you can use HAMMER?
I'm just curious.

 Point taken, suppose it's a good idea to test on different machines.

 However, now it looks again like a DFly problem. I tested on
 Virtualbox 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and finally reproduced it on a physical
 machine too. It only concerns installations where all partitions are
 UFS. It does not show for a hammer system (ie root HAMMER and /boot
 UFS).

 I used the partition layout:

 ---
 /  UFS
 swap
 /usr  UFS
 ---

 when booting the system from hdd, the acpi/ehci error shows for DFly
 3.6.x and 3.8.0RC where both are x86_64. So it appeared already in
 3.6.x.

Re: 3.8 release plans

Are you testing the installer because I checked out the new branch and
built it locally. 3.8rc and 3.9 both working fine for me, granted it's been
less than a day so far.

 Next guess would be some sort of odd configuration in BIOS for how the
 optical drive is connected?  Unplug it and see if the problem goes away.

 Last time I checked, DragonFly only supported 32 bit linux emulation on
 i386 kernels (no linux32 like FreeBSD). First step is to install i386
 DragonFly, hope that nothing is bitrotted, and then install a linux_base
 port. Please correct me if this is no longer true.

Re: pig-bootstrap or pig-bootstrap-force ?

http://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/howtos/HowToDPorts

That is the URL John was referencing documenting what you need to do. The
gist of it is this. There are sample files that you need to rename one of
in order to use, then two lines need to be modified slightly as the page
describes.

 Are you sure networking is active?
 e.g. does ping avalon.dragonflybsd.org work?

 Your messages look like pkg can't connect to a remote server.
 So check if the /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos configuration file is in place
 too (per HowToDports)

Redmine Spammer

The user sgeorge.ml is spamming the redmine system making bugs advertising
connecting to him on linkedin. I know that he's a member of the dragonfly
group, but even if he is, a bug report isn't the way to ask someone to join
his linkedin. I don't have any sort of admin priveleges on your redmine

Re: zeroconf-ioslave conflicts with kdnssd, pkg

 I don't know which package you are referring to, but if it really did

 Did you look for an UPDATING entry?
