 Hello zerotransfer,
 
 I've always enjoyed religious debates, but the list probably tires of
 them, and if we keep this up, one of the list admins will probably tell

 numbers in every religion, as far as I know, and if we in the IT sector,
 which is very number heavy, paid attention to what superstition somebody
 may hold with a certain number, our jobs would become ever more
 complicated.

In Japanese, the word shi (she) means 4 and death. This is the basis for
the custom of never giving a gift of four things. Tea cup and sake cup
sets always come with five cups, so that the giver does not wish death
upon the recipient. I suppose that setting a file's permissions to
-rw-r--r- (644) gets a laugh when thought of as read-write kill kill;
reminds me of some USENET news group names. Except those prefered die-die,
and in Japanese dai means big.

Programmers often use certain patterns to indicate dummy data. I was
taught to use nines for that. In the handbook, I might have used 

 *default host=cvsup999.FreeBSD.org

It does not take a leap of faith to presume that the author uses 666 where
I would use 999, with no offense intended regardless of race, creed, or
color.

Mozilla taking awfully long time to work

2003-02-22 Thread Thanos Tsouanas
Hello everybody... Ive got these 2 problems with mozilla
(either 1.0.2 or 1.2.x and if i'm not mistaken older versions as well)

Problem 1:
Well, i use another pc to connect to the net, using dhclient.
If i'm connecte and i run mozilla, it starts fine...
Then i get disconnected, i quit mozilla, and if i'm to run it again i have to wait 3 
to 4 minutes
for it to run. I see my cpu-meter flashing for just a sec and then it starts using cpu 
again after
3 to 4 mins, which is when it finally starts the application..

Problem 2:
I am connected on he internet just fine, (downloading ports, etc etc.) but when i try 
to make an
http connection with mozilla, it hangs on the Resolving host... msg...
Then, after 3-4 minutes again it decides to proceed on the Connecting.. and Sending 
request..
msgs...


Any ideas??

Re: Opera 6.11 on FreeBSD 5

2003-02-22 Thread Willie Viljoen
This is happening because the Opera 6.11 installed from ports is still a 
binary (Opera will *NEVER* open source)

To get this running, you will need compatibility options with 4.7. In 
kernel, you will need options COMPAT_FREEBSD4 and you will also need to 
have installed the compat4x libraries.

 Baie Dankie! :)

 Seriously though, thanks... On the same topic, does the native FreeBSD
 version have a flash plugin available, or am I better off using the
 Linux compatible version ?

If you wish to have an official implementation, you should use the Linux 
compatibility mode plugin. However, if you want an open source, 
cross-platform, native plugin, you can use the unofficial (not made by 
Macromedia) implementation, which can be installed automatically with 
portinstall flashplayer (make sure your ports are up to date)


 thanks again...

Re: CVSUP of 4.7 only?

   RELENG_4_7 - More current than _RELEASE, but only with critical

  What you describe, in slightly different words, is EXACTLY what
  the tag RELENG_4_7 is :-)))

 I thought it was 4.7 with **ONLY** security and **ONLY** critical
 updates, NOT anything else.

That's exactly what it is.  It is a security branch[3].  No new
features are added to it.  Not even manpage updates.  The security
branches *only* receive absolutely minimal changes to fix any
problems related to security they might have.

 My impression was 4_7 was just those items, 4 was those plus other
 non-important and things to get us to the next level.

No, that's RELENG_4.  The security branches[3] like RELENG_4_7 *only*
receive critical  security related fixes.  That's it.  Nothing more.
They are not the same as RELENG_4.

 So your telling me that if I CVSUP 4_7, I technically will get the
 same tree as 4 up until the day the uname banner changed to
 4.8-PRERELEASE?  Thats not my impression of what 4_7 is.

I don't know what you mean by 4_7.  In fact, before this turns out a
very confusing thing for both of us, since you seem to mean different
things by saying critical fixes than I do, please, if you still feel
confused about tags their meaning and what the release process of
FreeBSD is, refer to the following documents:

[1] FreeBSD Release Engineering.
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/article.html

[2] The FreeBSD Handbook.  Staying STABLE with FreeBSD.

[3] FreeBSD Security Advisories
http://www.freebsd.org/security/#adv

If, after reading these you still have questions about the meaning of
every tag, then it's a bug in the documentation and we should do
something about it :)

ssh(d) problems between FreebSD and Linux Systems

2003-02-22 Thread Cliff Sarginson
Hello,
Behind my firewall I am trying to set up password-free ssh between the
various systems. I have come across a curious problem. From a BSD
machine I can set it up so that FreeBSD can ssh into any of the Linux 
machines is fine, but the other way around, trying to get into the
FreeBSD machines from Linux, causes sshd on FreebSD to return

Feb 22 13:46:57 willow sshd[926]: fatal: monitor_read: unsupported
request: 24

This happens with 2 different varieties of Linux, so it is not an
artefact of just one system. The configurations look the same at both
ends as far as I can see.

I have achieved this by generating an rsa key, and putting the public
one into the authorized_keys2 file as appropriate.

Any suggestions ?

 I'm not running 5.0, so I may not have the details exactly right, but
 I think they're similar to 4.x.  You'll need to load the pcm module or
 compile it into your kernel.
 
 The ethernet card I'm not sure about, though; I don't know which
 driver is supposed to handle that one.
 
I think you may not have much success with the Ethernet card, I didn't
with both FreeBSD and Linux on a machine with the same motherboard.
A search of the maker's site proved fruitless. I would love to know if
it is possible though, since eventually said machine will need 2 NICS.

I have not tried the sound, since the machine in question is not

 Hi folks,

 I usually mount /tmp on the swap via the following fstab entry:

 only this doesn't work anymore on freebsd 5.0 since mount_mfs doesn't
 exist (seems to have been replaced by mdmfs).
 What's the proper way to accomplish the same thing on 5.0?
 I'd prefer a solution with fstab, so that /tmp gets mounted as early
 as possible.

ln -s mdmfs /sbin/mount_mfs

As I recall, mdmfs wasn't called mount_mfs at the time because the
author wasn't prepared to fight the battle he assumed (probably
correctly) would arise out of doing so.

Try and make sure that your Linux systems always use protocol version 2. 
FreeBSD uses this protocol by default, but most Linux distributions default 
to version 1 for compatibility reasons.

Public key authentication only appeared in version 2, so machines trying to 
use version 1 will not be able to use it properly.

The quickest way to achieve this is to force remote systems to use version 2 
by adding this in /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the FreeBSD system (it should 
already be there for new versions):

Protocol 2

Note that a setting of 2,1 will not work as it will still server protocol 1 
if clients request it first.

I need to display a Power Point slide on a FreeBSD computer running
more or less like a Kiosk.  The FreeBSD machine will be running in a
foyer displaying the Slide show and playing mp3's.  It will not have a
keyboard attached and needs to be controlled (i.e. slides changed) 
from
a Windows box in the office.  Both machines will be on the network.

Our plan is to use Open Office to show the slide show.  I had planned
to put XWindows on the Windows machine (using Cygwin) and export the
display from the FreeBSD box, but then it dawned on me that I will not
get the same display that is running the slide show.  i.e. Open Office
will be running on localhost:0.0, but the user will be looking at
remotebox:0.0.  As a side benefit, this will be a chance to put a BSD
desktop in front of the users who overwhelming feel that they have to
have Windows to do their job.
Someone suggested VNC, but that does not appear to control the :0.0
display.  I'm not sure how that is different from rlogin to the BSD 
box
and exporting the display.

Is there a way to either control Open Office from the command line, or
grab Open Office, at least Impress, from localhost:0.0 long enough to
open a new file and start the slide show, and then push it back?

 already be there for new versions):
 
 Protocol 2
 
 Note that a setting of 2,1 will not work as it will still server protocol 1 
 if clients request it first.
 

Ok, will give that a whirl later. Thanks !

fbsd backup 2 remote

2003-02-22 Thread Dick Hoogendijk
I want to make a *full* backup of my fbsd-4.7 to a (remote) HD on my
local network.

Should I share the (remote) directory through NFS or an alternate way.
And most important: what program do I use. The remote is an ext3 linux
drive.

Can anyone point me in the right (syntax) direction?
Should I use tar? Or what?
In future I want to be able to do a full restore to a new (and much
larger) harddrive ;-))

FTP installation through a NAT on a DSL connection

2003-02-22 Thread Vaughan Moore
I'm installing 4.7 at home.  The Intel box is behind a NAT running on a
Win98 box with ZoneAlarm running.  The point of installing 4.7 is so that I
can replace the 98 box as my gateway to my Verizon DSL connection.

My installation fails when the program tries to access one of the ftp
servers.  When the time-out occurs I get an installation media error
message.

I know that my subnet on the NAT works because when I plug a 2000 machine
into the gateway I can access the Internet.  However, I had to lower the Max
MTU settings in the registry to do it.  I understand that PPPoE requires a
lower MTU setting, but I'm not sure how to set MTU in the installation
program.

Can anyone help me with the problem?

Anil Garg disturbed my sleep to write:
 p.s. i looked earlier at -t, infact i was also trying to use -x with -t.

Logical enough, but not correct.  -t and -x are mutually exclusive.  -t means
just list the contents; -x means extract the contents (ie, get files out of
the tarball).  The tar command won't let you do both.

Hope this helps,

 It should be the DNS problem. Check /etc/hosts.

 If you have access from a machine outside your network, telnet to your

 telnet my.ip.address.here 80

I've run into this before, and this will tell you if that port is

Unfortunately, it still may not tell you how to fix the problem.  If

I'm almost sure MTU is not the problem in this case, the Windows machine 
should be taking care of that. Try setting FTP into passive mode in the 
installer's options screen, or turning off passive mode if that's the 
default on your version. Windows 98 NATs are not famous for handling FTP 
properly.

Slow networking with sis0

The onboard ethernet appears to be working
but very slow. I can ping out. Telnet in

dropped eventaully. CVSup runs overnight
still not done, but it does make progress.
ifconfig tells me autoselect with 10baseT

Same slowness was not observed under Windows.

Has anyone experienced the similar?

You need an external port scan done  using another Internet

not use the results for nefarious means. 

There are sites that will do simple scans for you

Not true at all.

   
  
  i'm guessing you're talking about the inconvenient way some Cable/DSL
  ISPs block incoming connections on common server ports (25, 80)?
 
 Verizon DSL does not block port 25 in the NorthEast.  Port 80 appears
 blocked (Bah!), but they claim they don't block any ports.  I was told
 it could be the DSL modem (Westell Wirespeed A90-210015-D4), but as
 far as I can tell, it isn't configurable, and doesn't block ports
 anyway.  Odd thing is that the port 80 trace stops at the modem.  I've
 never been able to figure this out.
I am also a Verizon DSL customer. They have given me a similar model
of the wirespeed dsl access point. They gave me a Westell Inc 
A90-210015-04 and do not block any ports period.

 
 Next month, Comcast (formerly ATT Broadband (formerly MediaOne
 Broadband)) is supposed to turn on the digital upgrades in my area, so
 I'm probably going to switch over.
 
 Oh, and BTW, other than port 80, Verizon DSL/PPP works great with
 FreeBSD.
They dont block 80 on my box, allthough that might be a config setting
not set in my area.

Hi,

 Traceroute is not really the tool you are after.

 not use the results for nefarious means. 
 
 There are sites that will do simple scans for you
 .. but of course is up to you whether you trust them ;).

The thing is, sites like grc.com won't tell you what they are scanning, so 
I was led to believe that my firewall/NAT box was locked down tight - but 
when I used nmap to scan my external interface, the result comes out as 
'filtered'. I've been told that this is because my ISP (Blueyonder, in the 
UK) performs a barrier service, protecting me from scanners (apart from 
BY's own ;-). Whether a talented individual could get around this is a bit 
beyond me, but I don't doubt it.


 Any such services you 'trust'?

Re: How to tell if Port is blocked...

2003-02-22 Thread IAccounts

 I'm running FreeBSD 5.0, I think that my isp have recently block ports on me. I know 
 the block port 82. But is there a way I can test to see if other ports are blocked?

# cd /usr/ports/security/nmap
# make  make install  make clean
# man (8) nmap

Best if you can run it on a machine foreign to your ISP network.

Steve


 TIA,

 Rod

bind with IPV6 reverse problem

2003-02-22 Thread Alexander
Hello,

I'm trying to make resolving for my IPV6 home network

 Hi,

  There are sites that will do simple scans for you

 The thing is, sites like grc.com won't tell you what they are scanning, so 
 I was led to believe that my firewall/NAT box was locked down tight - but 
 when I used nmap to scan my external interface, the result comes out as 
 'filtered'. I've been told that this is because my ISP (Blueyonder, in the 
 UK) performs a barrier service, protecting me from scanners (apart from 
 BY's own ;-). Whether a talented individual could get around this is a bit 
 beyond me, but I don't doubt it.

Mine is filtered too.  Bah.

I would be tempted to momentarily lift any firewall you have, to make

netcat or something like that (I think it goes under the name nc in

 (snip)

Ok, mind if I ask you what your network setup looks like?

Mine looks like this:

Opened by PID 56

I think these are the relevant interfaces.  I'm not entirely sure if
this isn't just a masking problem.  Of course that would mean that no
network connection would get through, wouldn't it?  My system at work
had a bad netmask, and any machine outside my subnet had trouble
connecting to the webserver there until I fixed it.

My /etc/ppp/ppp.conf contains the following:

verizon:
 set server /var/run/internet Hidden
 set device PPPoE:xl0
 set mru 1492
 set mtu 1492
 set authname hidden
 set authkey hidden
 set log Phase
 set dial
 set login
 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0
 enable lqr
 add default HISADDR
 disable iface-alias
 iface clear

It is possible that some change to my set ifaddr line could help, but
I don't know what it should be.  Then again, that could be the only
right one there.

Any pointers? - maybe this will help the originator of this thread as
well :)

  I also don't user Verizon for an ISP because they don't permit

 i'm guessing you're talking about the inconvenient way some Cable/DSL
 ISPs block incoming connections on common server ports (25, 80)?

Actually, it is a clause for termination on most networks that cover 
homes. When Code Red hit, I was told by my old ISP that I was in 
violation of their TOS. I was seeing x,000 hits a day and when it got 
that high, they noticed. When several of the search engines start 
indexing my system at the same time, the hit count also goes up. The 
old ISP also told me that I could run a casual web server when I signed 
up. Their TOS says you have to have it in writing, which I didn't. When 
the hit count reached some rate, I appeared to have crossed their magic 
barrier separating casual-personal and business oriented.

Verizon locally doesn't use a ppp based setup. My local ISP provides two 
static IPs and up to 20 via dhcp. When my DSL line doesn't work, I call 
Verizon's 888...1234 # and they work with me while I am on the 
telephone, which has been typically 2-4 am. If they can't fix it that 
way, Verizon tells me it will be fixed by 7 pm that day and a repairman 
shows up. 

The people on the East side of the Columbia River have Qwest and in the 
past, they had the reputation of taking days on simple repairs. I don't 
have any idea how they deal with repairs at this point because the 
computer oriented people that I knew have all moved out of the area. 
The only person left doesn't know how to get into his bios. When he 
gets back from 3-weeks in México, we are going to work on that :). I 
think that is similar to not letting one of the kids drive alone until 
they can prove they can change a flat tire.


 usually this is only a real annoyance because you can't set up a mail
 server for your incoming SMTP email. if you have access to an outside
 Internet server, and you run postfix on it -- you can route incoming
 mail through the outside server, and using the postfix transport
 table forward the mail to a sendmail or postfix instance running on a
 high port on your internal server. works great!

I use kmail on kde-3. My ISP is Linux based and is running SpamAssasin. 
I can use it and not have to figure out how to make everything run. It 
all depends on the irritation factor. When it reaches some point, I 
will do what you are doing.


 ...or like you said, just don't use that ISP :)

That is always a choice. 

It appears I have missed a number of comments on this because I wasn't 
cc'ed.

I dont use PPPoE on this interface, as far as my machine is
concerned, the internet is just an other chunk of the lan.

I also nmap'd your ip address, the isp is stopping the
traffic on ports 80, 113, and 27374 for you. You could
try getting in touch with them about removing these rules
for your ip address.

Also keep in mind that some Cable Modem ISPs have similar
rules in place.

Oh, yeah.

 I would be tempted to momentarily lift any firewall you have, to make
 sure something has not got twisted up in the rules, or changes made to
 the O/S or get something else listening on port 80,

The moment I lifted the firewall, all my connections to the external
system died.  I should try remembering this, since I do something
similar every now and again.  Unfortunately, when I kill the firewall
rules, I have no NAT translation to get a VPN connection back from my Windoze
box to the system at work.  Bah.

I did notice one interesting thing.  When I reconfigured Apache to
listen on port 8080, it worked fine.  What I only just realized, is
that I never put a rule in the firewall to explicitly open port 8080.

The rule used for port 80 is as follows:
${fwcmd} add pass tcp from any to any 80 setup

 netcat or something like that (I think it goes under the name nc in
 FreeBSD). Put your web-server on another port 8080, for example. Is it a
 proxy problem ? I guess you have run through all these possibilities...
 
 Well, good luck..you can always ask me if there is no external tester to

Thanks.  I appreciate that.  I'll read a couple more things and see
what happens, but I'm getting pretty close to my tolerance for now.

It was suggested that port 80 really is being blocked by the ISP, but
who knows.  They say they don't do it.  I'm not inclined to wait on
the phone for an hour to argue with them over it right now, either.

When Comcast finally starts calling to sell broadband in this area,
I'll be sure to pound on them about this.

Root mount failure w/ Maxtor ATA-100 card

2003-02-22 Thread Brad Ackerman
I'm trying to boot a Dell Optiplex GX1 (440BX PIIX4e, P2-333) using a
Maxtor (i.e., Promise) Ultra ATA-100 controller (BIOS rev 2.01.0.43)
and a Western Digital WD600BB hard drive.  The system works fine
without the Promise controller, and the controller shows up in dmesg:

atapci1: Promise ATA100 controller port

No other ATA devices are in the system.

When the WD600 is moved to the Promise, it shows up just fine as ad4
(and disk1 in loader), but the kernel raises error 6 (ENXIO?) when
trying to mount ufs:/dev/ad4s1a.  (Also, setting root_disk_unit to 4
does nothing; the kernel tries to mount ad0s1a regardless, and I have
to type in the correct(?) device manually.)

What else should I be trying to get this working?

I need a password. Guess I have to alter things to have an automatic ssh
session. Don't exactly know how :-((

Right.  First of all, swap partitions aren't mounted as such.  You
just have to tell the system to start swapping onto the partition:

# swapon /dev/ad1s1b

To make that happen automatically on reboots, add a line like so to
/etc/fstab:

/dev/ad1s1b  none  swap  sw  0  0

In order to mount your /data partition, either you need to tell the
mount command all the parameters it needs:

# mount -t ufs -o rw /dev/ad1s1e /data

or you need to enter the equivalent data into /fstab so that mount can
look up what it needs to know there.  There are some other fields in
fstab that 'mount -p' will give default values, but that you'll
probably want to set to something useful.  Try something like this in fstab:

/dev/ad1s1e  /data  ufs  rw  2  2

Oh, and do make sure you've created a filesystem on the partition before
you try and mount it..

# newfs /dev/ad1s1e


Cheers,

Matthew

Re: Verizon DSL FreeBSD?

2003-02-22 Thread Louis LeBlanc
On 02/22/03 03:27 PM, Louis LeBlanc sat at the `puter and typed:
  SNIP
 
 I did notice one interesting thing.  When I reconfigured Apache to
 listen on port 8080, it worked fine.  What I only just realized, is
 that I never put a rule in the firewall to explicitly open port 8080.

This was because of a firewall rule that should have opened every port
to the machine in particular.  When that rule was commented out, the
firewall looked like this:

For OSScan assuming that port 21 is open and port 113 is closed and
neither are firewalled
Interesting ports on pool-68-160-158-62.bos.east.verizon.net
(68.160.158.62):
(The 1592 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: filtered)
Port   State   Service
21/tcp openftp
22/tcp openssh
25/tcp opensmtp
113/tcpclosed  auth
143/tcpopenimap2
443/tcpopenhttps
993/tcpopenimaps
8080/tcp   openhttp-proxy
27374/tcp  closed  subseven

This is more like what I want it to look like, but port 80 still seems
to be filtered.  But what the heck is filtered?  I don't explicitly
block any ports until the last line of the firewall script:
${fwcmd} add 65000 deny ip from any to any in via ${oif}

So if I change deny to reset, will that give me an idea what ports are
filtered by me and what is filtered by the ISP?

 session. Don't exactly know how :-((

Hmmm... Usually you can just type in the password and everything
proceeds as planned. However, knowing how to use key based auth with
ssh is handy so here's a potted summary.

Generate an ssh key in the usual way:

# ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t rsa 

which will prompt you for a passphrase.  Enter one.  The command will
create two files:

id_rsa (the private key) and 

id_rsa.pub (the public key)

Move 'id_rsa' in /root/.ssh and make sure it has the right ownership
and fairly restrictive access permissions:

# mv id_rsa /root/.ssh/
# chmod 0600 /root/.ssh/id_rsa
# chown root:wheel /root/.ssh/id_rsa

Now copy the public key over to the linux box and add it to root's[*]
authourised keys file:

# scp id_rsa.pub linuxbox:/root/.ssh/
# slogin linuxbox
bash# cd /root/.ssh
bash# cat id_rsa.pub  authorized_keys

Logout of the linux box.  Start up the ssh-agent and load the key into it:

# eval `ssh-agent`
# ssh-add /root/.ssh/id_rsa

You'll be prompted for the passphrase.  Enter it.

Now test that you can access the linux box using the key based
authorization:

# ssh -v linuxbox

---  you should see something like this in the output 

debug1: next auth method to try is publickey
debug1: userauth_pubkey_agent: testing agent key /root/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: input_userauth_pk_ok: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 149 lastkey 0x87654321 hint -1
debug1: ssh-userauth2 successful: method publickey

You might need to take a few goes at this, and try connecting from
the linux box to the FreeBSD machine so that each host gets the
other's host key into the /root/.ssh/known_hosts files.

Eventually you should end up logged in without having to give the
password again.  You should now be able to do your backups.

When you're done, remember to shut down the ssh-agent:

# eval `ssh-agent -k`

Cheers,

Matthew

[*] Actually, it's probably better to use some other UID than root on
the linux box.

Yes, that's a workaround I had in mind.

As I recall, mdmfs wasn't called mount_mfs at the time because the
author wasn't prepared to fight the battle he assumed (probably
correctly) would arise out of doing so.

I can't see any problem there, if the mdmfs program is compatible
with mount_mfs.  I mean, the manpage even explicitly says, the mdmfs
utility is designed to be a work-alike and look-alike of the
deprecated mount_mfs(8).  Why then the different name, especially
with the result that it can no longer be used with fstab?  I mean,
the old mount_mfs doesn't seem to exist anymore so there would be no
naming conflict.

I'm almost sure MTU is not the problem in this case, the Windows machine
should be taking care of that. Try setting FTP into passive mode in the
installer's options screen, or turning off passive mode if that's the
default on your version. Windows 98 NATs are not famous for handling FTP

You're one step closer. When doing network configuration, make sure you list

Ok, mdmfs is not fully compatible with mount_mfs, since you don't

Other than that it seems to work ok, when called as mount_mfs via

Matthew said: -
Right.  First of all, swap partitions aren't mounted as such.  You
just have to tell the system to start swapping onto the partition:

# swapon /dev/ad1s1b

To make that happen automatically on reboots, add a line like so to
/etc/fstab:

/dev/ad1s1b  none  swap  sw  0  0

In order to mount your /data partition, either you need to tell the
mount command all the parameters it needs:

# mount -t ufs -o rw /dev/ad1s1e /data

or you need to enter the equivalent data into /fstab so that mount can
look up what it needs to know there.  There are some other fields in
fstab that 'mount -p' will give default values, but that you'll probably
want to set to something useful.  Try something like this in fstab:

/dev/ad1s1e  /data  ufs  rw  2  2

Oh, and do make sure you've created a filesystem on the partition before
you try and mount it..

# newfs /dev/ad1s1e

 Josh also mentioned newfs...

Chris Phillips thanks all as this is now SOLVED!

I was experiencing some difficulty, as if I added the said lines into
/etc/fstab, I would be unable to boot completely.  This was possibly due
to the fact that when I used /stand/sysinstall to fdisk the drive 
label the partitions, it would seem to have not done anything...  Oh
dear!  I tried again (omitting the swap space as already have a big'un
on the 1st drive (ad0).  I used the W option in the label editor which
seemed to do the trick  now with the fstab file looking like the one
below, things are wonderful again ;-)

I can now get the system back to normal, (having copied the contents of

trouble with linux java install.

 Checksum OK for j2sdk-1_3_1_06-linux-i586.bin.

I recieve the above error msg when I do a make install
clean on the linux java sun jdk13.I've typed Linux at
a shell promte and I get informed that the linux
driver is running. I've tried as a work around
creating a link from the svr4 to the linux folder
thinking it would find it in the correct place and
that would work.
I've also done a clean install and upgraded the
ports.. and that hasn't helped eithere.

I'm running freebsd 4.7 stable.

Re: mdmfs /tmp and fstab on 5.0

 Yes, that's a workaround I had in mind.

 As I recall, mdmfs wasn't called mount_mfs at the time because the
 author wasn't prepared to fight the battle he assumed (probably
 correctly) would arise out of doing so.

 I can't see any problem there, if the mdmfs program is compatible
 with mount_mfs.  I mean, the manpage even explicitly says, the mdmfs
 utility is designed to be a work-alike and look-alike of the
 deprecated mount_mfs(8).  Why then the different name, especially
 with the result that it can no longer be used with fstab?  I mean,
 the old mount_mfs doesn't seem to exist anymore so there would be no
 naming conflict.

Semantics. It doesn't mount an mfs filesystem, so it shouldn't be called
mount_mfs. I personally think it's a fairly large breach of POLA - this
isn't really an argument I subscribe to either.

Re: USB flash drive mount - da device?

2003-02-22 Thread Dan Pelleg
Darren Spruell [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Greetz,
 
 I use a USB pocket drive and am having the hardest time figuring out how to
 mount it into the filesystem. Following are what I thought to be important:
[snip]
 Generally I use the command 'mount -t msdos /dev/rda0s1 /mnt' to mount this
 to my filesystem. Sometimes it works, sometimes it fails. When it does work
 I can only mount it as root. In order to be able to mount this as a regular
 user, do I have to put some flags into a line in /etc/fstab? What would be
 the best way to make this drive user mountable?
 
 The other question is, is there a better way to mount up the device or
 control it via a usb tool or is the way I am doing it correct?
 

I'll tell you what I do with a CompactFlash card, which I believe should
work for you as well. Most of the time I just need to copy over the stuff
from the memory card to local disk. So I have a script that:

1. mounts the device
2. copies everything over from the card to a directory on the local disk
3. unmounts

This script is hooked from pccardd (and in your case it'll be hooked from
usbd) so it runs as root.

I'm using the -nrp flags to cp, so it won't overwrite any existing
files. This works ok if whatever is writing to the device is always
generating fresh names for new files (which is true in my case). If there
is possible name-collision, you can change the script to put everything in
a directory with a timestamp in its name.

Now, for the times I want to directly manipulate the CF card (usually big
deletions), I use the automounter. It'll automatically mount the card when
I access /auto/localhost/cf, and unmount it after 5 minutes of no
access. You need to remember not to pull the card/usb-thingie out while
it's still mounted (if you're in a hurry, become root and umount). For more
details about this, I recommend reading
http://www.daemonnews.org/200202/automounting.html

Also, for msdos mounts, it's usually most convenient to chown the directory
underneath the mount point so it's owned by the primary user of the machine
and his/her group. This way, once the files are copied over by the script,
they're still owned by you and you can write or delete them easily (I
found that the -u and -g flags to mount_msdos don't help you here: cp -r
will still create any intermediate directories as root/wheel).

Note you can use either the usbd/pccardd hook or the automount method, or
both - neither depends on the other to work.

Fwd: Cvsup Handbook Example

2003-02-22 Thread Jimi Thompson
Since the major portion of the world's misery, both past and present, 
can be directly attributed to organized religion, I find this 
incessant prattling about the demon (INTENTIONAL misspelling) logo 
and some of the other things like this thing below to be totally 
offensive.  The Middle East is in a shambles and those people have 
been squabbling for 5000 years over who's ideas about God are right. 
Europe has fared no better and neither has the New World - just ask 
the Native Indian population.  Millions of people have died over 
religion.  It doesn't really matter which one.  Pick one - they are 
ALL equally guilty.  The short-sighted narrow-minded viewpoint 
expressed below is PRECISELY the mind-set that encourages and 
promotes things like the Inquisition.   Since it does nothing but add 
to the sum total of human misery, I find postings like this to be 
highly offensive.

If you think that you might be going to hell over reading something 
that says cvsup666, then you are probably already in one and too 
brainwashed to get out.




At 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html, 
cvsup666 is used as an example.  Out of all the possible three 
number combos, why was 666 used?  As a Christian, this does bother 
me and I would like to know why exactly it was used.  I do not think 
this is being extreme or unreasonable.  Please note that I do not 
want to start a confrontation or cause problems etc... with this 
question.  Simply the answer.  If you would prefer, please feel free 
to email me directly if you feel this may cause problems on this 
list.  I help admin a few freebsd servers and so this of extra 
interest to me.

Boot from disk

2003-02-22 Thread Mike
Hi all

I have an IMB ThinkPad 765D by design and age it will not boot from a
CD. To load Linux on it I used a specific RH boot diskette that would
allow me to use a CD ROM connect through a serial cable. It has both a
CD and floppy but you can only have one or the other;(

Is there anything like that for FreeBSD. I am digging in Google but if
there's hope let me know

Mirror Command

The mirror command is saying:

% ps axw | grep mirror
9704  p0- S  0:43.26 mirror redhat:ftp.netcraft.com.au:pub/redhat \
Failed to get file 550 linux/6.2/en/os/i386/misc/src/trees/tmp/glibc-\

(The \ are to indicate it's really on one line but it won't wrap nicely
to 72 characters)

The job hasn't stopped. At least it hasn't returned from the bg and told
me it's died and it still appears to be doing *something*.

Does anyone know whether that's a major problem or whether that's just
mirror reporting something and continuing to mirror on?

Hi Mike, You could use a win98 boot floppy to get to the CD but the
other way is to go to www.freebsd.org and search the handbook for
installing from floppy. You will need to create two floppies boot.flp
and ...uh..something else with the .flp extension that is on the freebsd
cdrom. Thatis how I always do it.

Hope it helps,

ps: proc size mismatch

2003-02-22 Thread Chris Pepper
	I last did a buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, 
installworld in December (from current STABLE sources via cvsup). I 
tried again a few weeks ago and today, and after booting to 
single-user get errors from ps about /proc (ps: proc size mismatch).

	uname from my working kernel  world is:

FreeBSD www.reppep.com 4.7-STABLE FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE #0: Tue Dec  3 
14:05:51 EST 2002

unsuccessfully this month):

buildkernel  ~/buildkernel-20030221.log # mergemaster found no

# mergemaster -p # no changes found
# make installkernel

	Searching the web, I see many people saying if ps complains 
about a mismatch, your world is out of sync with the kernel 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html 
 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-trouble.html#KERNELCONFIG-NOBOOT. 
I know that, because I haven't done make installworld yet, but I'm 
trying to validate the new kernel first. Unfortunately, there isn't 
much info on how to validate the kernel (if it boots to the shell, is 
it fine??).

	Is there anything else I should test before make installworld?

Compiling Question

2003-02-22 Thread Terry J Dunlap Jr
Hi all!

Tonight I synced my source with Release 4.7 and recompiled. Prior to
recompiling, I modified the make.conf file to NOT compile a number of items,
like games, sendmail, etc. I'd like to try to build a lean system from
source.

After the entire source compilation process, I still found those items on my
system. A review of the man page for make.conf leads me to believe that
those items did not compile, yet the old versions still remain on the
system. Am I correct?

If this is true, how does one go about compiling a lean system with the
essentials only? Can the make.conf file be modified in such a way to remove
items from the system, like sendmail, games, etc.? I read the man page for
make.conf then searched it for the word remove, but nothing is there.

Thanks for the help!

You're one step closer. When doing network configuration, make sure you list
a valid and real DNS server. Try setting it up to use the DNS at your ISP,
or the winroute if it provides DNS.

The proc size mismatch you're seeing is because your kernel and
userland is not in sync.

Reboot.  Enter single user mode.  Run 'installworld'.

If you suspect 'installworld' can fail in the middle of it all, and
leave you with a useless installation, half-updated and half-not, then
make sure you have about 300 MB of free space in /somewhere and run:

# cd /usr/src
# make DESTDIR=/somewhere installworld

if this works fine, then youcan safely delete everything in /somewhere
and run the real 'installworld' without DESTDIR.

 I know that, because I haven't done make installworld yet, but I'm 
 trying to validate the new kernel first. Unfortunately, there isn't 
 much info on how to validate the kernel (if it boots to the shell, is 
 it fine??).

It's a pretty good indication, but not definite. I once tripped over a
bug in a SCSI driver that caused failures under load, so I could do an
installworld but not a buildworld. If you've got the time, you can
always try running a buildworld on the new kernel. That's a thorough
stress test.

   Is there anything else I should test before make installworld?

Any hardware not touched in getting to the shell prompt that *has* to
be working on your system.

Re: Hardware support under UltraSPARC

2003-02-22 Thread Matthew N. Dodd
The 3c590 uses the 'vx' driver which is PIO/MMIO only.

If it compiles on the sparc64 I suspect it will work fine.

  please advice

 You first need to convert the card to use the busdma API if it's not
 using it already, and you then have to deal with endianness issues
 (FreeBSD/sparc64 is big endian).  Look at the
 http://www.FreeBSD.org/projects/busdma/ for more information on busdma.

 More specifically, you can look at the xl(4) driver which has recently
 been converted to busdma and made endian-safe.

  is the freebsd-sparc kernel not open source? i cannot compile/custimize it
  myself?

 Err, the FreeBSD project is entirely opensource.  The biggest part of
 the kernel is MI (machine independant) and thus doesn't have to be
 changed to work on other architectures.  A smaller part of the kernel is
 MD (machine dependant) and needs to be written for every different
 architecture we support.  The sparc64 specific sources of the FreeBSD
 kernel can be found in /usr/src/sys/sparc64.

I plan to put freebsd5 on a sun e250, this is a pci based ultrasparc

is a network card thats originally for x86 machine. This card is working
probably under solaris w/ some non-official driver,  is supported under
linux/x86. My question is, will this card, intel fastethernet 100, or
3com590 work under freebsd/ultrasparc w/ some tiny tinkering?
  
   It's unlikely, since the drivers for those cards are commented out in
   sys/sparc64/conf/GENERIC. The drivers probably need work to use busdma.

 I don't remember whether 3c590 cards are supported by xl(4).  If so, it
 should just work on sparc64.  It hasn't been uncommented in GENERIC yet,
 but I'll do it a second.  The Intel card won't work on sparc64 yet, but
 I'm currently working on the fxp(4) driver for the busdma conversion.
 Once this is done, we need to make it endian-safe in order for it to
 work on sparc64.

 Maxime

Vinum, concantination and filesystems

2003-02-22 Thread David Feig
Can I do this:

I want to create a new filesystem that I can grow and/or mirror later 
by adding more drives without losing my existing data.

I have been reading about Vinum but haven't found anything about 
growing filesystems without losing data. I am talking about some like 
Partition Magic.

I have done a bit of searching for 'growable' filesystems under FreeBSD 
but I haven't been able to find much of anything about anything besides 
ufs.

Also, I can't seem to get dns resolution for the Vinum website. Have 
these guys not been paying their bills? (www.vinumvm.org)

 Hi all!
 
 Tonight I synced my source with Release 4.7 and recompiled. Prior to

 source.
 
 After the entire source compilation process, I still found those items on my
 system. A review of the man page for make.conf leads me to believe that
 those items did not compile, yet the old versions still remain on the
 system. Am I correct?
 
 If this is true, how does one go about compiling a lean system with the
 essentials only? Can the make.conf file be modified in such a way to remove
 items from the system, like sendmail, games, etc.? I read the man page for
 make.conf then searched it for the word remove, but nothing is there.

I do not have the answer, but may be you would find

There was a thread about someone compiling it using R4.7

There isn't a growable filesystem so to speak, although in certain conditions

HOWTO upgrade a FreeBSD production server

2003-02-22 Thread Daxbert
I'm hoping to get a few suggestions on a quick and safe method to upgrade a
FreeBSD production server.  To date, I've been doing the following:

On a like configured staging server, cvsup the src tree.  Then perform a
full build and install as outlined in /usr/src/Makefile.  After confirming that
the host operates as planned, I create a tarball of /usr/src and /usr/obj.

I then transfer and extract the tarball on the production server(s), where I then
perform installkernel / reboot / installworld.

I'd like to find something a little quicker that doesn't require so much free
space on the production server. I've looked at DESTDIR and creating a tarball of
that directory on the staging server, but I've had problems during extraction
with files and the 'schg' flag.

Any suggestions?
