RE: booting from Promise tx2000

2003-02-24 Thread Len Conrad

I might be wrong here.. but I think you need some specific raid drivers for
the TX cards to work
the tx2000 is seen as an standard ATA interface. no driver needed

Re: booting from Promise tx2000

2003-02-24 Thread Len Conrad

If your BIOS supports this, try setting the boot device in CMOS
configuration to SCSI Boot Device.
it does, and that's how we have it.

 The problem is that the offboard ATA
controller you are using has its own BIOS, thus the system BIOS will not
boot a disk attatched to it.
I don't think so, the system BIOS scans the i/o address space for 
executable segements and passes control to any that it finds, giving the 
disk controller card a chance to run its own code, hook interrupts, etc.

 Setting SCSI boot device will mostly make your
BIOS offer to hand booting over to what ever device offers to take it. Most
(modern) ATA controllers respond to the call for a "SCSI boot device" and
take controle, then booting the system from the hard drives they own.
agreed, but it's not happening.  We've played a lot with the System bios 
settings and with the tx2000 bios setup utility, which sees the drives 
correctly.

Being a curious person myself I cvs co'd the OpenPTC thing to try it
here. I've tried it on a NetBSD box, but the procedure to build it on
FreeBSD should be similar.

First I had to patch configure. This is my patch (change /usr/pkg/lib to
/usr/local/lib on FreeBSD)

--- configure.orig  2003-02-24 09:30:02.0 +0100
+++ configure   2003-02-24 09:33:45.0 +0100

 { (eval echo configure:1951: \"$ac_try\") 1>&5; (eval $ac_try) 2>&5; }
 ac_err=`grep -v '^ *+' conftest.out | grep -v "^conftest.${ac_ext}\$"`
 if test -z "$ac_err"; then


Then I used this:

$ env CFLAGS="-I/usr/pkg/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/pkg/lib" ./configure

(Again, change /usr/pkg to /usr/local for FreeBSD)

configure went okay. I still get an error while trying to build the lib,
but it's a step.

I'll post in a while if I get it to build, right now I have to get onto
other things. Hope this helps a bit. Perhaps it would be worth e-mailing
the developers and making an offer to help them make a more sane
configure script.

Cheers,

It "works" for certain things only.  'make index' is one thing that
may not work if you only have a partial ports collection.

Have you tried mkisofs ?

If it doesn't work, please read "12.5.5 Duplicating Audio CDs".

Re: APC UPS

2003-02-24 Thread Mark
Hi,

A while ago I posted that I could not get my APC UPS BK350 to work under
FreeBSD 4.7R, using apcupsd. Problem was that, though apcupsd test prog sees
the power go off-line, the apcupsd daemon itself does not. :(

So, since I do need a solution, maybe I just need a smart UPS. I was
thinking of buying the APC Smart-UPS 700VA. But before I shell out good
money for that, does anyone have that one working for FreeBSD? And with
apcupsd? (or other daemon). If so, I would much appreciate you telling me.
:)

Thanks,

ports stale dependency

2003-02-24 Thread Antoine Jacoutot
Hi all...

OK, I am a little confused today.
On one of my servers, I did a "cd /usr/src && make update && portsdb -Uu && 
pkgdb -Fvu", and some packages have strange stale dependencies...
Like for instance:
"Stale dependency: horde-2.2.1_1 -> python-2.2.2_2 (lang/python)"...
In the horde2 Makefile, there's not even a mention of python ???
And same for the kronolith port which have a ton of stale dependencies that 
look wrong...

Any idea what's happening ?
Is there a way to rebuild the dependancy tree or anything like that ?
I am sorry if I sound foolish, but it is the first time I'm having this 
problem.

Thanks.

Re: Problems with in the ipf setup in an FreeBSD 4.7 router

2003-02-24 Thread Jim Xochellis
Hi Giorgos,

First of all I have to admit that basically you are right. I *must*
avoid changing the xxx_program settings and it does not seem reasonable
(in FreeBSD 4.7) to include the flags into the xxx_program settings.
Flags should be into the xxx_flags settings.

But my old router was an FreeBSD 4.2 - RELEASE box and I just wanted to
change it to FreeBSD 4.7 - RELEASE for security reasons. I was under the
impression that my old rc.conf file should work ok with the new system
and I tried to reuse it (Big Mistake!).

Unfortunately the rc.network file of the FreeBSD 4.7 - RELEASE is
working differently now, and the ipfilter_program setting is not being
used the same way like it was back in FreeBSD 4.2 - RELEASE:

rc.network of FreeBSD 4.2 - RELEASE:
...
${ipfilter_program:-ipf -Fa -f} "${ipfilter_rules}" ${ipfilter_flags}
...

rc.network of FreeBSD 4.7 - RELEASE:
...
${ipfilter_program:-/sbin/ipf} -Fa -f "${ipfilter_rules}" ${ipfilter_flags}
...

In other words [ipfilter_program="/sbin/ipf -Fa -f"] was the correct
setting for the FreeBSD 4.2 - RELEASE but it is incorrect for the
FreeBSD 4.7 - RELEASE. My *big* mistake was that that changing the
ipfilter_program setting was not really necessary for me. I should left
it to its default value! Well I am wiser now thanks to this list, thank
you very much!

Jim Xochellis

Hello,

I was wondering, is it safe to set the "sunlnk" flag on important system
files, such as /etc/master.passwd? Or /etc/spwd.db? Especially the latter I
am not sure about; maybe, internally, chpass or something similar, needs to
rebuild it (by unlinking it first)?

Thanks.

Problems with the rl driver...

2003-02-24 Thread Henrik W Lund
I'm trying to set up FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE for a friend of mine, and he has 
the Realtek RTL8139 NIC (for which the rl driver is the correct one as far 
as I can tell). However, when booting up, the following appears:

rl0: couldn't map ports/memory
device_probe_attach returned 6
(migth be paraphrased)

Now, I have had a similar problem earlier with another PC, and what was done 
then was just to recompile the GENERIC kernel (4.6-RELEASE, mind you), and 
it worked fine, even though the kernel I was already running was the one 
that was installed (which I assumed was GENERIC also). I tried this approach 
with my friends system too, but to no avail.

Are there any flags that may be sent to the rl driver? I've checked LINT, 
and there doesn't appear to be any.

Thanks!

My guess is that when you did your re-install you didn't backup and
restore the host keys for your machine.  That means that all of the
accounts on systems you've been connecting to will have the old host
keys in the ${HOME}/.ssh/known_hosts files.  That leads the ssh
servers on those machines to believe that your newly installed 5.0
server is actually some sort of impostor, hence they refuse access.

The fix is easy, if tedious: edit all of the known_hosts files and
delete the lines referencing that particular server, either by name or
by IP number.  The known_hosts data will be rebuilt as people connect
to and fro during their normal usage, although it may cause automated
jobs to fail untill you can pre-load the known_hosts with the right
stuff.  See ssh-keyscan(1) for away of doing that.

Yes --- that's due to the import of OpenSSH 3.x into the tree, which
supports the SSHv2 protocol and some new key types.  I notice above
that you're talking about 'identity.pub' which indicates you're
probably using the old RSA1 key type and hence the SSHv1 protocol.  If
you can, you would be well advised to switch to SSHv2 which is rather
more secure, and supported pretty much everywhere now.  It seems that
the best key type to use is RSA which implies default key file names
of 'id_rsa' and 'id_rsa.pub'.

Cheers,

Matthew

Power problems would be my guess. Especially if the disks are

Many things get upset by the some of the langugage ports being missing, portsdb -Uu,
make readmes ... particularly the lack of Japanese ports.

I wonder if some kind of "stub" mechanism may not be  good idea, for

fsck problem

2003-02-24 Thread jaime
I have a RAID-5 array on /home via vinum.  This morning, the
server (running 4.8-PRERELEASE, compiled last week) wouldn't allow anyone
to login via ssh, imap, or console.  So I had someone reboot the server
via control-alt-delete.  Then it said that not all processes would dia,
use ps axl.  Of course, since we couldn't login, this was pointless
advise.  :)  We then used the reset button on the chassis.

As I type, the server is in single user mode.  The fsck commands
result in:
CAN NOT READ: BLK 16

I've looked at
http://docs.freebsd.org/44doc/smm/03.fsck/paper.html and found its
information less than encouraging.  Since its said to "seek a guru", I
was hoping that someone here could help my poor little school district.

If this wasn't on vinum, I would assume that my next step would be
to assume a dead drive and remove it and move on.  However, this is a
vinum array.  I'm not sure how it could be a bad drive if the array is
composed of 4 drives.

Any help, pointers, etc. would be GREATLY appreciated.  My entire
school district is effectively dead in the water until this server is
running again.

TIA,
Jaime

GNUstep applications

2003-02-24 Thread James McNaughton
Has anyone gotten GNUstep applications (beside Windowmaker) to work?
I'm trying to get GNUMail to work and it doesn't in many ways.

The first way is that "openapp" isn't in the path, so I have to use
the entire path at the command line.

The second way is that GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT has to be defined in the
environment or openapp doesn't find GNUMail.app.

The third way is that after doing all the above implies to get GNUMail
to run, it segfaults.

I have rebuilt GNUstep and GNUMail twice already. There doen't seem to
be any problem compiling and installing any ot this system, however, I
didn't sit and watch the whole process either.

So far, I've found no help for these issues on the GNUStep or GNUMail
websites.

You don't say much about your script, but I've been able to make user management
scripts with no problems (using just sh).
Are you using the pw command for interacting with the password database?  See
the man page for pw if not.  That may solve your whole problem.

Thanks for all the info! Regretibly, I'm still having problems...

The client was the only one reinstalled, the server was untouched until
I sent up a new "identity.pub". Because I did not restore any .ssh/
files, there is no known_hosts file.

I have confirmed this via:
#find / -name "known_hosts" -print

While being su'ed to root.

Now, this got me to thinking that maybe it wouldn't auto-connect 'cause
there was no known_hosts file... So I removed the authorized_keys from
the server and tried to connect in hopes to create the known_hosts file
but I still got the same error:

Host key verification failed.

The only known_hosts file that exists on the machine is in
/root/.ssh/known_hosts which does not have a problem connecting. So I
figured rather than properly diagnose this, I'd make it work again since
I'm starting to run against time constraints...too bad it didn't work:

# cp /root/.ssh/known_hosts /home/myuser/.ssh/
# su myuser
%ssh xxx.xxx.xx.xx
Permission denied, please try again.

Thanks, after seeing this being an option now, I had planned on
migrating to this, but I figured I'd get rsa1 to work again first.
Unfortunately, until I can ssh to the machine at all, I can't get either
mechanism to work I fear. I have tried using the dsa key but it doesn't
work either.

More ideas?

Turns out that I can in fact get ssh2 to work now that the known_hosts
file was copied from /root. I'm still confused as to why A) the
known_hosts wasn't created automatically and B) I still can't get ssh1
to work.

If you don't mind learning a new language, check out Expect.  Its
an extention to TCL that allows the language to script/automate command
line programs such as the adduser command.

Alternately, look at man 8 pw and /usr/share/skel.  These should
get you started.  Once upon a time, I took the adduser script that came
with FreeBSD and was written in perl (in C now) and hacked it to do what I
wanted.  You could take that approach, too.

Good luck,
Jaime

Yes - leave it.  Depending on your hardware, this will take quite a long
time.  An hour is not unreasonable, if you are using "old" hardware.

Hello everybody,

I finally could make evolution by upgrading gnomecanvas.

Now the problem is other :-(

When I'm trying to create a new message it says:

Could not create composer window
Unable to activate address selector control.

The error from the system is:
Unknown CORBA exception id: 'IDL CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0'

I looked at ximian.org and found the following:


Question
 What does the Evolution error "Cannot open composer window" mean? This 
happens when I try to start writing a new mail message.

Answer
 This actually means that Evolution cannot activate the HTML editor component 
from GtkHTML.
Check that:
 Your PATH envionment variable contains gnome-gtkhtml-editor. To check that 
this is setup properly, open up a console and type the following:

 # which gnome-gtkhtml-editor
 # echo $PATH 

You should find the directory which contains gnome-gtkhtml-editor in your PATH 
statement. 

oafd is listed in your PATH environment variable.To check that this is setup 
properly, open up a console and type the following:
 # which oafd
 # echo $PATH 

You should find the directory which contains oafd in your PATH statement.

GNOME_Evolution_Shell.oaf and the other GNOME_Evolution_*.oaf files are 
readable and installed in $prefix/share/oaf, where $prefix is one of the 
prefixes listed in GNOME_PATH or OAF_INFO_PATH. To check GNOME_PATH or 
OAF_INFO_PATH, open a console and type:
 # echo $GNOME_PATH
 or
 # echo $OAF_INFO_PATH 

Run oaf-slay in a console once before running Evolution again if you change 
$GNOME_PATH or $OAF_INFO_PATH.

evolution, evolution-mail and the other evolution-* executables are in your 
PATH.

Some users have reported that removing all files from /tmp/orbit-root solved 
the problem.


The first thing I found in my system was that the file gnome-gtkhtml-editor
didn't exist.  But found: /usr/X11R6/bin/gnome-gtkhtml-editor-1.1
I did a symbolic link but still no luck.

Then I tried with GNOME_PATH and OAF_INFO_PATH

And found that in my system there is some difference as assumed by ximian.org:

GNOME_Evolution_*.oaf files are installed in: /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/oaf/ and 
not in: $prefix/share/oaf, where $prefix is one of the prefixes listed in 
GNOME_PATH or OAF_INFO_PATH.

So with the directory gnome between share and oaf seems it doesn't workout.

What should I do?

Thanks a lot for your help, and please CC me.

laptop firewall NICs

2003-02-24 Thread Shane Hickey
Howdy all,
I'm attempting to use a Toshiba TECRA 8000 running 5.0-release as the
firewall for my home network.  It's running right now, but I'm seeing
some sketchy network behavior and I think it's one of the NICs. 
Basically, when I'm doing something fairly network-intensive (like large
NNTP downloads) my bandwidth usage fluctuates wildly.  I also will get a
lot of connections reset and such.
I think it's my ed1 interface (which is my inside interface), because
when I had ed1 as my outside interface and in promiscuous mode (for
snort) I was getting a lot errors like:

Feb 14 15:00:37 elijah kernel: ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet
length 4
When I changed my dc0 interface to be my outside, promiscuous
interface, these errors went away.  My current dmesg info is as follows.

ed1:  at port 0x100-0x11f irq 11 function 0
config 16 on pccard0
ed1: address 00:e0:98:88:91:84, type Linksys (16 bit)
ukphy0:  on miibus0
ukphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

dc0:  port 0x1000-0x107f mem
0x88002400-0x880024ff,0x88002500-0x8800257f irq 11 at device 0.0 on
cardbus1
dc0: Ethernet address: 06:00:06:29:52:90
miibus1:  on dc0
tdkphy0:  on miibus1
tdkphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

Anyway, so I recently got a Xircom 10/100 cardbus NIC to replace my
linksys (ed1) card.  However, when I boot up with this NIC, I get to the
point where my interfaces are going to be configured (after setting
hostname) and the machine locks up.

Here's the dmesg info for the new card.

dc1:  port 0x1080-0x10ff mem
0x88002000-0x880020ff,0x88002100-0x8800217f irq 11 at device 0.0 on
cardbus0
dc1: Ethernet address: 06:00:10:a4:03:3f
miibus0:  on dc1

Would it help if I rebuilt my kernel and specified the irq, mem and port
for dc0 and dc1?

Thanks in advance for any help,

FreeBSD 4.7 and buildkernel perl5 references

2003-02-24 Thread Sean O'Neill
Just curious if anyone knows why the kernel source has references to both 
"perl5" as well as "perl" and if work is being done to make make the calls 
to perl more standard e.g. using either "perl" or "perl5" everywhere.

This isn't a problem but more of a one-time-annoyance.  Right at the 
beginning of the buildkernel stuff, the make runs "perl5" on a couple of 
things.  Further on it uses "perl" for other stuff.

On my system, I removed all the old FreeBSD perl stuff.  Apparently 
buildkernel doesn't include /usr/localb/bin as part of its path so it 
didn't find /usr/local/bin/perl5.  Basically, it failed.  Easy fix of 
simply adding a symlink of /usr/bin/perl5 to /usr/local/bin/perl.

Just curious if anyone else noticed this.

It's historic.  In two senses.  The distinction between 'perl' and
'perl5' dates back to when perl-4.036 was being superceded by perl-5.x
and there were some incompatibilities that had to be smoothed over.
(Of course, nowadays, it's all perl5 anyhow, but the distinction might
as well remain to help disambiguate perl5 and the upcoming perl6...)

The other reason that it's historic is that perl has been stripped out
of the system sources in 5-CURRENT.  This change is unlikely ever to
be backported to the 4-STABLE tree, but on the other hand, no one is
likely to put much effort into enhancing code that's slated for the
chop in a few months time anyhow.

Yeah --- I noticed that too.  All it takes is installing one of the
perl ports, running 'use.perl port', creating the perl5 symlink you
mention, and you can compile with 'NO_PERL=yes' and delete all of the
system supplied perl-5.005.03 stuff.  Unfortunately you need to keep
/usr/bin/perl5 as the original system perl binary if you want the
capability to switch back and forth between the system and port
versions of perl.

Cheers,

Matthew

Yikes, how can I get around this?

2003-02-24 Thread Phillip Smith (mailing list)

I'm having a whole world of trouble with sendmail and apache, where
previously I've had none.

I added some new Mailman aliases to my /etc/aliases file and did 'make'.
The process took a very long time. I restarted sendmail. The changes did
not seem to take effect, so (stupidly) I remotely rebooted the server.

I noticed next, that apache wasn't starting up, wasn't an active
process, etc. Neither was fetchmail.

I tried to start apache with apachectl start, but keep getting error
messages about 

[Mon Feb 24 13:33:12 2003] [error] Cannot resolve host name xxx.xyz.com

I think that the primary name server I'm using is down. I'm not sure why
it's not picking up the secondary information?

I've never had this problem before... any ideas on how to get apache
running without checking for name resolution?

Many thanks in advance,

phillip.

I think someone is writing a FreeBSD driver right now, so if I were you I 
would just wait... or ask the person his patch to make the Audigy works with 
the emu10k1 driver. Unfortunately, I can't remember his name, but you can 
contact him on freebsd-multimedia.

Problems with quota

2003-02-24 Thread William R . Dickson
Hi all,

I've got a system on which quotas are active, but are not being 
enforced.

- I built a kernel with options QUOTA
- I have enable_quotas="YES" and check_quotas="YES" in /etc/rc.conf
- I have "userquota" set on the device
- I rebooted
And yet this user:

/usr/home: blocks in use: 306098, limits (soft = 51200, hard = 51200)
inodes in use: 5019, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0)

...can still upload files via ftp.

Any thoughts?

Re: audigy support

Each patch has it's merits.  The author of the latter, Orlando Bassotto, is in 
the process of merging the two at present and we hope to have Audigy support 
in the tree within a short time frame.  Making these patches work on a 4.7 box 
probably isn't that hard if you really want it now.

I'll agree that this discussion has taken too much time already.  More
than it's worth.  You should have researched the matter yourself,
looking at commit logs and finding the person who committed the text
you're interested in.  Then you could have mailed the original

That's not always true.  I personally committed the change in the
manual page of sdiff(1) both to -current and -stable, to make sure
that the incomplete, lacking manpage has minimal changes from the
vendor version but *does* point to the texinfo docs of diff/sdiff
which are more complete than the manpage.

If I had to guess, you updated the sources but were only building the
kernel.  Don't do that.

Let's see.  The manual says:
 MODULES_OVERRIDE
   (str) Set to a list of modules to build instead of all of
   them.

so I assume it would be something like
 MODULES_OVERRIDE="amr ccd vinum"

In theory, sure.  In practice, I don't think it's worth the effort to
avoid building them all.  [Well, I do it occasionally, but those are
cases where I know the source hasn't changed, and I am using config(8)
directly anyway.]

Yes, the most aberrant product of GNU is "info".
Praise be to info2html, which at least makes them usable.
Navigating info pages is like having teeth pulled without novocaine.

An audio CD is different; it doesn't have a filesystem per se.
The manual page for cdrecord (in ports, doesn't support ATAPI except
through the ATAPICAM emulation) includes an example of how "To copy an
audio CD in the most accurate way"...  

But in the simplest case, you need a program (often called a "ripper")
to grab the tracks one at a time, and another to write them to the new
disk (burncd(8) for ATAPI drives is in the base system).

For ATAPI, you can copy each track from the CD by copying out of the
acd*t* devices and writing them to the CDR with burncd.

Well I don't have much option to upgrade here, so I just won't do warm 
reboots. However that does give me some questions:

If the extra hacking was done, what would be wrong with that occurring at 
the end of the reboot process, rather than the start of the boot process?

If there's some form of a kernel panic then presumably a reboot would 
occur causing this hang; what could I do to prevent this? Are their any 
other times where a reboot could occur out of my control?

Thanks again,

Can portupgrade upgrade itself?

2003-02-24 Thread Tom Parquette
I've been automating some routine stuff on my machine and one of them is 
cvsuping ports-all and pulling the distfiles overnight (while everybody 
is asleep.)  Keeping portupgrade right up to date feels like the right 
thing to do and I was thinking about adding this to the shell script I'm 
writing.

This sounds like a chicken and egg question but, can the portupgrade 
tool safely upgrade itself? In other words, adding portupgrade -Rr 
portupgrade in the script after the cvsup run.
TIA...

It probably wouldn't *hurt* anything, though, it wouldn't *do* anything, 
either.
When power cycles the ATA will initialize to the native state. So, any 
assertion
of pins prior to power cycle would be moot.

I see. However, good news I appear to have solved this by adding

hw.ata.ata_dma="0"

to /boot/loader.conf

I've no idea why this could be required for a warm boot but not a cold 
one, but I'm happy it appears to be working now.

Gah. Correction: that was either a fluke, the problem is intermittent, or
I hit the reset button without thinking and through it had worked.

Epson Perfection 1260 and SANE

2003-02-24 Thread Paul Everlund
Hi!

Has anyone got this scanner to work with FreeBSD 4.7 and SANE?

When issued sane-find-scanner it finds it, telling me it's on
libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0.
It also seems to use the backend Plustek, and in the [usb]
section I have entered the correct vendor- and product-id.
I have tried various settings for device, such as auto,
libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0, /dev/ugen0 and so on.
Executing scanimage -L just tells me it can not find the
scanner.
Also got some "Device not found" and "I/O error"'s while
testing various settings.
If you who reads this managed to make it work, can you please
give me some hints?
Thanks in advance!

firewall/nat Web Hosting architecture

2003-02-24 Thread Guilherme J. R. Oliveira

Hi !

I need to create a network serving virtual web hosting (which I'll have 2 public ip's) 
with these servers: apache, iis, bind, ftpd, sendmail and pop3.
It's possible to put all these servers (including the dns) behind a freebsd 
firewall/nat with 2 nics and 2 switchs to divide 2 networks ?


Example:

  internet
  |
   router
  |
 firewall&nat
  |
desktop1 -- switch -- |   -- switch -- bind,apache,ftpd
desktop2 -- -- sendmail,pop3,secondary_bind
-- iis,ftpd


I think it's possible using -redirect_port and -redirect_address but I shock with 2 
(or more) problems:

- if the public ip's adress's will be served with bind then it must be installed in 
the same box as firewall&nat. True ? But I wish that bind stays behind the firewall.
- I have only 2 public ip's that must be assigned (i think) to bind and 
secondary_bind. How can I acess to iis and/or apache server independently from 
internet ?



Thanks.

tip and USB-RS232 cable

2003-02-24 Thread Luca Pizzinato
Hi All.

I have here a couple of FreeBSD boxes with a USB to serial RS232 cable
going from USB0 on hostA to COM1 on hostB.

On hostA I recompiled the kernel incuding the following 2 lines:
# USB com devices
device  ucom
device  uplcom

Unplugging and plugging back in on hostA the USB end, this is what I get
on the messages file:

... hostA /kernel: uplcom0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 2) disconnected
... hostA /kernel: uplcom0: detached
... hostA /kernel: uhub0: port error, restarting port 2
... hostA /kernel: uplcom0: Prolific Technology PL2303 Serial adapter
(ATEN/IOGEAR UC232A), rev 1.10/2.02, addr 2

On hostA:/etc/remote I created the following line:
usb0:dv=/dev/usb0:br#9600:pa=none:

However, I can't have tip working. It tries to connect and immediately
disconnect!
hostA:~ # tip usb0
connected

Hangup.
[EOT]

On hostB everything is fine, since if I use a nullmodem serial cable
between the 2 boxes, I get the login: prompt from COM1 at hostA straight
away.

What am I missing?!?

Thanks & regards.

Re: DISPLAY variable

2003-02-24 Thread Mike Meyer
In <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Brian Henning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> typed:
> setenv DISPLAY ipaddr:0.0
> what are the display number and screen number used for?

The display number denotes which X server at ipaddr you're going to
talk to. It's basically added to 6000 to get a port number to connect
to. If I start a second X server with "startx -- :1" it will be the
second server, listening to 6001, and hence you would use ipaddr:1.x.

The screen number denotes which of the monitors that that X server is
managing that you want to open on. On my system with two monitors, the
second - smaller, as it happens - is at :0.1 on the first server, and
:1.1 on the second server.

> how do i know what number to use for the display number and screen number?

By knowing which X server and monitor you want to use.

> for example when i tunnel x11 through ssh for a user i use :10.0
> when i access x11 on the same network i use :0.0

ssh is forwarding the port - 6010 - for server #11 - :10 - to DISPLAY
if that environment variable is set. When I ssh from my workstation, I
use :10.1 to open things on the second monitor on the workstation.
Actually, ssh automatically walks through a list of port numbers until
it finds one that isn't used, sets DISPLAY on the server end to the
appropriate value, and forwards it to DISPLAY on the client end. If
you want, you can forward X11 by hand by forwarding port 6000 + X to
port 6000 - assuming you are using :0.0 - and setting your DISPLAY to
:X.0 in the shell. I have clients that don't forward ssh for security
reasons, and have to do that by hand when I'm on their machines.

Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration there, but I get your point.
The whole problem with Texinfo is that it doesn't have a well defined,
pretty much standard, well-known and respected layout for the
presentation of information to you.  The fact that you find it
difficult to navigate .info documents is not a direct result of the
format used to write the documentation, but a side-effect of the way
things are organised in the original document.

Most of the Texinfo documents I've read haven't been written to be
read sequentially.  Sometimes, there isn't a well-defined order of all
the "nodes"; which only makes things worse.

There are a few very good documents in Texinfo though.  The open
sourced book about CVS of http://cvsbook.red-bean.com is a very good
example of a Texinfo document that I really, I mean REALLY, enjoyed
reading.

It's not the format.  It's the writer...

Um.  Is it an incredibly stupid question to ask why you're trying to
access usb0: instead of uplcom0:?  I don't know anything about serial USB
support under FreeBSD, but that kind of jumps out...

Two nics installed, only one visible

2003-02-24 Thread Stacey Roberts
Hello,
 Sorry if I'm missing something really basic here, but I've
installed FreeBSD on a new box here with two brand new nics: 

Intel Pro100S
3COM OfficeConnect (3CSOHO100B)

At installation, I had the Intel (fxp0) connected to the switch, and it
was configured during the sysinstall stage. However, the 3COM nic never
showed up after installation in dmesg (as far as I can tell, that is):

 dmesg | grep -i intel
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) III CPU family  1133MHz (1132.96-MHz
686-class CPU)
  Origin = "GenuineIntel"  Id = 0x6b1  Stepping = 1
fxp0:  port 0xdc00-0xdc3f mem
0xfb00-0xfb0f,0xfb10-0xfb100fff irq 5 at device 9.0 on pci0
 ~ # dmesg | grep -i 3com 
 ~ #

But the 3COM *is* picked up from scanpci:

pci bus 0x cardnum 0x0a function 0x00: vendor 0x10b7 device 0x9300
 3COM  Device unknown
 CardVendor 0x10b7 card 0x9300 (3COM, Card unknown)
  STATUS0x0290  COMMAND 0x0007

  MAX_LAT   0x80  MIN_GNT 0x40  INT_PIN 0x01  INT_LINE 0x0a

I've tried moving the 3COM all over the available pci slots, with no
change.

I *do* have the xl driver included in my kernel:
# grep -i fxp TIGER 
device  fxp # Intel EtherExpress PRO/100B (82557, 82558)
 /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # grep -i xl TIGER 
device  xl  # 3Com 3c90x (``Boomerang'', ``Cyclone'')
 /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # 

Am I missing something?

Thanks for the time.

It would appear that from /usr/src/sys/pci/if_xlreg.h that the device id 0x9300
is not present.  Because a reference for 0x9300 doesn't exist, you will have an
unknown 'card', and it won't use the driver.

I've never done this... but one option would be to edit if_xlreg.h and *add*
support for your card and recompile and install the new kernel.

The following line exists in /usr/src/sys/pci/if_xlreg.h (RELENG_4_7)

#define TC_DEVICEID_HURRICANE_SOHO100TX 0x7646

maybe you could try changing this to:

#define TC_DEVICEID_HURRICANE_SOHO100TX 0x9300

NOTE: A *proper* solution would be to add a new line to if_xlreg.h and add
support for this new device to if_xl.c.

But for now the 0x9300 hack is worth a shot...

I should probably mention, the reason I chose to change 0x7646, is becuase it
was the only one with SOHO in the name.  If your new SOHO card isn't based on
the HURRICANE ASIC, the above hack will fail.  In which case you should research
which ASIC it is based on, and then make the change to one of the other DEVICEID
defines.

I was just doing a search around FreeBSD tech sites and actually, this
*specific* nic - 3CSOHO100B-TX isn't actually listed. What *is* listed
in the Handbook is:
3Com Etherlink XL-based NICs ( xl(4) driver)

3C900/905/905B/905C PCI

3C556/556B MiniPCI

3C450-TX HomeConnect adapter

3c980/3c980B Fast Etherlink XL server adapter

3cSOHO100-TX OfficeConnect adapter  <-- WHERE I WENT WRONG>>

Dell Optiplex GX1 on-board 3C918

Dell On-board 3C920

Dell Precision on-board 3C905B

Dell Latitude laptop docking station embedded 3C905-TX

In looking man xl(4) though, 3cSOHO100-TX OfficeConnect isn't even
mentioned, far less for 3CSOHO100B-TX. So it appears that I've not done
my homework on this one :-(

Man.., I'd like to get this working.., but I'm not sure about editing
those files - not a programmer, you see. Is the HURRICANE_SOHOTX
actually the one to edit, for instance?

Thanks for that info., Get back to me with what I asked, if you can.
I'll go look around the 3COM site for more info myself.

In a previous email I mentioned my logic behind picking the HURRICANE SOHO,
because it was the only one which mentioned SOHO in the name.

I did some further research (google: 0x9300 SOHO) and found that this card isn't
 based on the HURRICANE chipset at all:

http://www.tux.org/hypermail/linux-vortex/2002-Dec/0054.html

the author mentions that it's a 'tulip' based card. Tulip is a DEC
ASIC. First make sure the de driver is enabled, and disable your existing xl
driver.  And hope for the best.

If it's still undetected... you'd need to hack into the tulip files... I'd
recommend this if you are comfortable with booting alternate kernels.  That way,
if you break the kernel it's not a big deal.

if_de.c and if_devar.h (both in /usr/src/sys/pci) are the files in question.

good luck

Yeah, I've just come across a linux thread that mentions as much
(actually refers to a driver provided my the guys at scyld). I'll follow
up on what this thread link says and see how it goes..,

Thanks a lot, Man.

booting from Promise tx2000: FIXED

2003-02-24 Thread Len Conrad
Since we only had one ATA133 disk on each TX2000 ATA channel, we skipped 
the TX2000 setup utility to define an "array" (we didn't want to run RAID 
or want any stinking arrays at all).

We were able to boot from mobo ATA CDROM and install fbsd through the TX2000.

( btw, we always install fbsd boot mgr, since without the boot mgr, we more 
often than not, cannot get any boot at all )

But, no boot from TX2000 fbsd disk. Nothing, no errors, from TX200, nothing 
from fbsd bootblock.

When we did define an array as "span", but only had one disk per ATA 
channel in the "span", we were finally able to get a boot but with a failure :

Mounting Root from ufs:/dev/ad4s1a
Root Mount Failed: 16
We figured the fbsd install pre-array/span wasn't accessible after we did 
defined array/span.

So with the array mode + span now on, we re-installed fbsd via the TX2000 
to the same disk.  And now, we can boot just fine.

 while waiting for Soeren Schmidt to get the Promise SX4000 driver done!

:))

Hey great, thanks for that!  You didn't have to do that :-)  I tried your
changes and did indeed get further.  I also had to hack the Makefile.config
(in the x11 dir) to include /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include.  Also, a
few of the Makefiles had carriage returns at the end of every line, and that
also caused gmake to bork.  Oh, I had to change configure in one other spot too
to include /usr/local/include.

After that it compiled everything!

Did all that happen because they were using an older version of autoconf to
create the configure script?

Yeah I think I'll email them, though I'm a newbie when it comes to autoconf/
automake.  I'm about to teach myself though because (a) it's about time I
learnt and (2) I need to learn to package up some software I'm working on. :-)

Thanks muchly for your help!

Disk failure (hardware or config problem?) Vinum

2003-02-24 Thread David Feig
I have been playing with Vinum and my first serious experiment resulted 
in a serious failure. I am not sure if my hard drive just chose this 
moment to fail or if it is a configuration problem but I can't seem to 
do anything with the drive anymore:

I have a 40 G IBM drive that I have not really ever used. I configured 
it with Vinum to be a single volume with a single plex and a single 
drive (can't get much simpler than that.) After newfs'ing it I proceded 
to copy about 35G of data to it. While doing other things my system 
suddenly froze. I could not switch to a virtual terminal. The machine 
was no longer funtioning as a gateway but I could still ping it. I had 
no other option than to reboot. 

On reboot fsck successful cleaned up various inconsistoncies on various 
partitions (not the vinum volume.)

The last message in /etc/messages was:

Feb 24 07:23:47 hoho /kernel: pid 756 (kdeinit), uid 1000 on /: file 
system full

Although none of my file systems are full after reboot.

The drive ad7 still shows up in my boot messages. When I started vinum 
I got this in /var/messages:

I then tried to reconfigure the drive: 

su-2.05# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad7 bs=1k count=1
dd: /dev/ad7: Input/output error
1+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes transferred in 0.014675 secs (0 bytes/sec)

with the /var/log/messages output of:
Feb 25 00:16:50 hoho /kernel: ad7: hard error writing fsbn 0 of 0-1 
(ad7 bn 0; cn 0 tn 0 sn 0) status=51 error=04

Note, I have an identical drive on the same IDE controller and it is 
still working fine, so I don't think it is a controller problem. 

Is my drive toast?

Re: Oracle on FreeBSD

2003-02-24 Thread synrat
it's not a bad idea, it'd be great if oracle created a port for bsd, but 
they didn't and most likely won't. you can't run in in native mode, 
because ... well... it's bsd, not linux. i don't think you'll have issues
with emulation mode,. except for performance, which could be pretty big.
I suggest just stick with linux for oracle.
