Yes, SPI stands for Statefull Packet Inspection. Wasn't aware IPFW was a
SPI Firewall, always thought IPFilter was much better. I used to run
iptables on Linux and tried IPFilter (which is very good imho). IPFW
pages aren't that explicit or I didn't looked at the right place.

Any of you can point me some nice pages to learn more about it ?

What, exactly, is a 'SPI' firewall? If you mean stateful firewall, you 
haven't looking into ipfw for at least five years (making your remark 
obsolete, not ipfw :).

The only thing I couldn't do with the old ipfw was atomic replacement of

rules. With ipfw2 I can do that. ipfw2 is default on 5.0 and can be 
turned on on 4.7 (options IPFW2 on kernel and WITH_IPFW2, iirc, on 
make.conf). The '2' is the version, the binary, man pages etc still have

all the same names.

 
 Is there any web place where I can find stuff about IPFW2 by chance ?

From ipfw(8) :

HISTORY
 The ipfw utility first appeared in FreeBSD 2.0.  dummynet(4) was
intro­
 duced in FreeBSD 2.2.8.  Stateful extensions were introduced in
 FreeBSD 4.0.  ipfw2 was introduced in Summer 2002.

 Any of you can point me some nice pages to learn more about it ?
The ipfw manpage has a lot of information...

This is getting off-topic for current...

First, I was looking for IPF related functions in new Kernel building,
didn't found them anywhere.maybe I did something wrong but not likely.
Is it
now a non kernel related application ?

 

Btw, I was looking for some docs on the FreeBSD website and didn't found

is the old IPFW, which is quite obsolete now imo. Why are documentation

Re: No way to disable loading of agp.1 on boot?

2003-01-16 Thread Coercitas Temet'Nosce
Hi there,

problem isn't REALLY agp related, it is just because the PCI bridge tries to
use some resources the BIOS left off or that are not enabled correctly by
the device driver. There is a tunable value you can set to 0 to avoid this,
just hit spacebar when loader prompts it and type :

hw.pci.enables_io_modes=0

It will normally prevent your system to hang while testing this driver.

If this doesn't work (it SHOULD work btw) just try this :

 hw.pci_allow_unsupported_io_range=1

It allows the PCI bridge to pass through an unsupported memory range
assigned by the BIOS. This tunable value set to OFF (0) by default.

Let me know if it helped :o)

Subject: Bug: No way to disable loading of agp.1 on boot?


 Hey there,
 I just tried to install freebsd 5.0RC3 on my laptop but the
 mini-inst-iso kernel hangs before entering the install-screen.

 The last two lines shown are (boot -v):

 agp0: Intel 82443BX (440BX) host to PCI bridge mem 0-0x3ff at \
 device 0.0 on pci0

 agp0: allocating GATT for aperture of size 64M

 Anyway, I don't need agpsupport for an installation-process, so I
 tried to disable agp on boot-prompt.

 I looked for a hint-variable but there doesn't seem to exist one.
 anyway, lsmod shows agp.1 in the modules: section, so I thought about
 disable the loading of that module.

 Well, after an unload; disable-module agp (which worked, he said he
wouldn't
 load it anymore); load kernel; an lsmod still shows agp.1.

 Is this a bug or can't I disable agp-support on installation cdroms?

 The machine doesn't detect agp-devices when booting with boot-floppies, so
 I think that should be possible with the cd too.

 I am fairly new to freebsd and I read the documentation about hints and
 also about the boot-prompt. Additionaly I asked google and dejagoogle for
 this issue and got no help.

 If I still left out a possibility I am sorry for making noise.

 so long...

 David

Hello Again,

Thanx all for your messages, I think I start to figure how it is handled.
Problem still exists, system still hangs at agp0: Ali Generic host to PCI
bridge mem 0xf000-0xf3ff at device 0.0 on pci0 but I think it is
in this way I may find a solution. Is there by chance anyway to see what
will be load or not simply hitting SPACEBAR at prompt ? I didn't find any
place where it is discussed nor a way to see the set variables that will
be used to boot.

Thanx for your messages :o)

  I wonder if it might be even better to disable it by
  default. Nothing turns people off like an OS that doesn't install.

 It should CERTAINLY be turned off on the install CDs and floppies! It
 was VERY frustrating to boot the CD on my laptop and have it crash
 after a few minutes. Kinda hard to get a crash dump, either.

 APM was never on by default in the past. Why should we have ACPI on on
 the install disks?

Re: Problem with RC3

2003-01-14 Thread Coercitas Temet'Nosce
Ok, problem solved...

Thanx for your notes, it helped a lot.

For thse who may wonder, I simply changed 2 parameters :

hw.pci.enable_io_modes
   Enable PCI resources which are left off by some BIOSes or
   are not enabled correctly by the device driver.  Tunable
   value set to ON (1) by default, but this may cause problems
   with some peripherals.

 hw.pci_allow_unsupported_io_range
   Allow the PCI bridge to pass through an unsupported memory
   range assigned by the BIOS.  Tunable value set to OFF (0)
   by default.


can't say exactly which one prevented me from crash (surely 1st one but
didn't tried any further). Dunno if it would be possible to prevent such
things to happen by simply test it, I guess testing it will crash the whole
system too.

Thanx all btw, I learn, I learn :o)

Pardon this poor question but I was looking for up to date documentation
about FreeBSD-current (5.0-RC3). Most important points to me are new kernell
config and IPFilter implementation (didn't saw anything related in new files

Can someone tell me where I can find at least informations relative to
kernell build in last release ?
