Dummie question: The versioning system

Random spurious reboots / lockups
Hi, Recently started having complete system reboots while in X, as well as lookups. REBOOTS: It seems to have started only when I portupgraded my XFree86 libraries and clients. I can work on the machine in X for hours and hours and hours straight, and then when I'm not next to it for a few hours, it reboots. I was on this morning, took a shower/shave, and when I came out it was in the process of rebooting. LOCKUPS: This seems to happen 99.99% of the time when I'm trying to get out of xlockmore. If I enter a bad password and try to get back in again it'll completely lock up. Is there any way to find out atleast whats causing the reboots? I'm not seeing anything in the logs about it.

After adding a Seagate 80GB Barracuda IDE (ad1s1e) hard drive recently I began to notice the above errors in dmesg and /var/log/messages. After reading posts and researching I did some testing with transferring files using both cp and mv on: /dev/ad1s1e results were sporadic at best, sometimes producing the errors and sometimes not. Believing this to be a cabling issue, I replaced the new IDE 80wire/40pin another 80wire/40pin IDE cable only to receive even more errors of this type. After shutting down, reopening the box, and staring blank-facedly at the motherboard and cables I remembered what an old hardware guru suggested once when adding additional hard drives, Run the IDE cable to from the controller to the interim connector (master drive) to the end connector (slave drive). i.e., (diagram 1) |---IDE 80 WIRE CABLE--| ::---::-:: controller interim connector end connector MOTHERBOARDMASTER DRIVE SLAVE DRIVE (My Seagate 80GB) I figured it couldn't be that easy. I tried to find some info on this using google, of course there were differing opinions on the subject. One argument suggests that the drives will fight for bandwidth, so the logic suggested here seems correct. Before this, I had the drives reversed and in the order of: (diagram 2) |-ide cable--| controller---slave---master (Seagate 80G) repeating this with other cables gave same type of error messages. Following diagram 1 above I used the original IDE cable, this seems to have solved the problem. 5 days later still no error messages. So it seems this is a possible fix to this issue. Outside my bad diagrams, I figured this might just be worth a try to others having similar issues. All opinions and any additional information on this topic are welcome.

CVS is not so good at tracking changes in non-text files (such as images, OpenOffice documents, etc) but can still do so. You maintain versioning, but CVS is unable to understand the content of the file, thus it can't give you the changes from version 1.15 to 1.16 or insert version strings in the document (as you see above).

krb5 port and permissions on forwarded credentials
Howdy, When running telnetd (for example) under inetd like this: telnet stream tcp nowait root/usr/local/krb5/sbin/telnetd telnetd -a user and logging in as a non-root user (the most likely scenario), the credentials cache is not chown'ed to the user (remaining 600 root:wheel). klist returns this: $ klist klist: Credentials cache permissions incorrect while setting cache flags (ticket cache FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_p3866) This effectively means that forwarded credentials don't work. After reading README.FreeBSD (provided by the port), I believe that this is because the FreeBSD /usr/bin/login program doesn't know that it's supposed to manage cache permissions and that using login.krb5 instead will fix this. I'd prefer not to do this - I agree with the port author that /usr/bin/login is the better way to go. Is there a place where I can configure the default login process to change the ownership of the cache file? I suspect that this will boil down to a PAM problem, but I don't know enough of the details of the /usr/bin/login authentication process to take it any further.

isp connection woes
I have ATTBI for an isp, someone told me that the IP TTL is expiring on the way to the server. Their network design supports no more than 16 hops on the way to a DHCP server, but increasing the (hard-coded) TTL (at line 159 in /usr/src/contrib/isc-dhcp/common/packet.c) can help fix the problem.

Hi Steve, i am trying to install freebsd so i downloaded the disk1 i386 5.0 version and i cant install with the cd because it goes through the whole process and then says its rebooting. It's supposed to do that .. what's the problem when it reboots? Which part does it reboot at? and when i use the floppie method it cant see the cd in the rom and it cant use a ftp connection?? and it cant install from ms dos partition if you could help me please e-mail me What kind of network card are you using? Is there more then one in the system? What type of CDRom is in the system? SCSI, IDE? Can't help you much without knowing more about it :) D.

It can be reasonably used on anything that stores files as plain text documents. So the answer depends on your office environment. If you're using one of the XML-based office systems, you can use it with some success. If you're still using a system that stores data in binary files, it'll work - but isn't nearly as useful.

Is Apache+Perl behaving correctly? Am I insane?
I'm trying to enable mod_perl support for my TWiki-based website (http://subwiki.honeypot.net/). I'm seeing some really strange behaviour, though, and I don't know which of mod_perl or I are going insane. In my httpd.conf, I have: User www Group www and it behaves in the expected way. TWiki ships with a script called `testenv' that shows some information about the current Apache environment, and it calls some very simple code to determine the user its running as: my $usr = lc( getlogin || getpwuid($) ); print trth align=\right\User:/thtd$usr/td/tr\n; When I execute that script from a browser, I see User: root, and I'm not sure where that's coming from.

Don't put that in. Bill, Why do i not need to have two default routes, I have 2 networks? I am sure you are correct, I guess i just don't understand why. A default route or default gateway is defined as the place the software sends traffic when it doesn't know how else to reach the machine in question. The assumption is that the default route computer will know where to send it. Other routes are added automagically, without needing your intervention. For example, when you ifconfig the rl1 interface, the network software automatically adds a route to 192.168.1.*, based on the IP/netmask that you configured. The network software then knows that all computers in that range can be reached through that network card. Additionally, having a default route that points back to itself results in an infinite loop (if the machine will even let you do it). The effect is: machine doesn't know how to reach host, so sends to default route, doesn't know how to reach host, sends to default route. It just keeps receiving the same traffic that it doesn't know what to do with. is there a way i can find out the ip addr of my dhcp server? Call your ISP, or if you have a machine that is working properly, check where it got it's IP address. Most OSes will tell you (even Windows). does this even work: default_router=192.168.1.254 rl1 No. default_router is a syntax error, it should be defaultrouter and the interface name at the end is not supposed to be there. The system will automagically determine the interface that belongs to the route. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: systat like statistics to a flat file ?
On Mon, Feb 24, 2003 at 10:40:24PM -0600, Sean O'Neill wrote: Is there anything in FreeBSD or the ports that will collect statistics similar to those displayed by systat and drop them to a flat file ? systat actually provides a handy constantly updating display of data equivalent to a number of well known status reporting tools under Unix. So, going full circle, you have: uptime(1) System load averages ps(1) Process Status --- the systat 'pigs' mode selects those processes using a large fraction of the available processor power, which is roughly equivalent to runnign 'ps -rla' and picking out processes from the top of that list. netstat(1) Various counters to do with network traffic. Thus the systat icmp display shows the same sort of information as: netstat -s -p icmp The tcp and ip displays can be shown similarly. netstat(1) can show statistics for more traffic categories than systat(1), eg: igmp, udp, ip6, icmp6, and it can show the traffic counters just for a specific network interface: netstat -I lo0 -s -p ip6 netstat(1) also displays mbuf counts, similar to systat's mbuf mode: netstat -m The default output from netstat(1) is to show the status of all open sockets on the system --- equivalent to systat(1)'s netstat mode (unsurprisingly...) pstat(8), swapinfo(8) swapinfo(1) is just a special way of invoking 'pstat -s'. Anyhow, pstat(1) is a general interface for reporting various kernel statistics to do with swap, filesystems and terminals. swapinfo shows how much capacity is in use in each of the swap areas on the system, equivalently to systat's swap mode. vmstat(8) This comand will tell you all about the performance of the virtual memory system. The systat(1) vmstat mode manages to summarise several of vmstat(1)'s output modes onto one page vmstat -s shows counts (since the last reboot) of various types of paging event in the system. vmstat -i shows the number of interrupts per device since the last reboot, and plain vmstat produces a condensed display showing inter-alia the amount of virtual memory in use, the free memory available, page faults, paging disk IO. faults and cpu usage, averaged over the time since the last reboot. vmstat in this mode is intended to be run using the '-w' flag which causes it to loop and print out statistics for each successive period. iostat(8) Overlaps somewhat with vmstat(8), and has a similar one-line report which it will print out at intervals given the '-w' flag. However, the principal focus is on disk IO throughput. systat(1)'s iostat mode shows the same information spread out over a whole page. There's several other statistics or status reporting tools that come with the system and which don't have an analog within systat(1), such as sockstat(1), fstat(1), nfsstat(1), ifmcstat(8), arp(8) all of which are well worth knowing about.

In your case, the apache daemon has to be started up as root so it can bind port 80, but it's child processes all call setuid() or similar to switch to the standard UID the daemon runs under.

.text area copy-on-write (COW)
I'm trying to determine just how much *physical* memory is required by one of my programs. I have a simple program with a .text size of about 1.7MB and, when running, a resident memory size of about 2.3MB. So far so good. What I don't understand is that when this program fork()s, shouldn't the .text area be shared between parent and child (actually, shouldn't both .text and .data be shared until modified)? If so, then why does the child process also have a resident memory (RES under top) of 2.2MB instead of 600k? Am I misreading top? Is there some other way of determining the amount of physical memory being used by a process?

Hi ! I am sure it is a common question, but I can't find the answer: - how can I save my defined settings when building a port ? Putting them in /etc/make.conf does not seem to work. For exemple, if I want to build imapd with drac support, I go make WITH_DRAC=yes install, but I would love to go like make install, putting WITH_DRAC=yes in some configuration file somewhere so I don't have to write nor remember it all the time (especially when upgrading).

Re: freebsd 5.0 + monitor settings

I've seen a line in the file that says vertrefresh 50 - 120 i was wondering if i can just have one value there and if that would change my refresh rate on my monitor because my screen is out of range at certain resolutions. that is why i need to change my refresh rate. I can assure you that the resolutions i use are supported by the monitor and video adaptor. The information you need is in the XF86Config(5) manpage, but the briefe version follows: There are infact two settings you can use in the monitor section to do this. The HorizSync options sets horizontal syncronization frequency, and VertRefresh sets the (vertical) refresh rate. The easiest way to do this, if you know the exact refresh rates your monitor wants for these resolutions, is to set them like this: (For a monitor that wants 68.5KHz horizontal and 85.0 vertical) HorizSync 68.5 VertRefresh 85.0 Be warned, this will force XFree86 to operate ONLY at those refresh rates. This will disable all modes that do not function properly at those rates. You may want to include values for each mode your monitor supports and which you want to use, this can be done like: HorizSync 31.5,68.5 VertRefresh 60.,85.0 The standard setting is to specify a range of possible values, and let the video card BIOS take its pick. Most people have non-standard monitors though. These do not follow VESA specifications and will behave strangely with range settings. Even so, setting a range is still optimal, and if you monitor supports digital controle, I would sugest rather setting the monitor to the proper CRT limits than limiting refresh rates available to your system.

majordomo@FreeBSD.org rejecting messages from certain MUAs
Whenever I send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I get the error: 550 Error: Message content rejected After some experimentation I found out that my mail was being rejected on be basis of my X-Mailer header which is: X-Mailer: The Bat!

I tried both of these in a message with no other headers, and just a single command in the body and they got rejected with the 550 error. Trying a full fledged message without the X-Mailer, and a bare one with Outlook Express as the X-Mailer and got no errors at all. So what I'm wondering is, why is The Bat! getting rejected? P.S.

Re: Input on solution to temporary routing
Morten Grunnet Buhl [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: opensesamy 192.168.0.2 ftp which would then temporary route outside ftp connections to 192.168.0.2. You could do something like this, but it wouldn't work for more than one inside box at a time. As far as the rest of the world is concerned, there is only one machine in your network (assuming you only have one global IP address). FTP is particularly hard, because it uses multiple TCP connections, and passes the port number for the data connection *inside* the control connection, so it doesn't mix well with packet-filtering firewalls anyway. Unless you really know what you're doing, I'd advise staying away from FTP with this sort of thing. For protocols that stick to a single port, it's easier. For protocols that can use any port, it's easier yet -- but whoever's connecting from the outside needs to know what it is. For example, you could use natd to redirect external port 8001 to the web server of inside host number 1, 8002 to the web server of inside host number 2, and so on.

Re: saving port settings (Was: stupid question)
First, next time choose a better subect. Nearly every original post is a question. Sorry about this. Use portupgrade, from the ports tree. Then you can do portupgrade imapd to update it, and it'll look in $(PREFIX)/etc/pkgtools.conf to see what settings you want to use. Hum I can't find anything to resolve my problem within that file.

Hum I can't find anything to resolve my problem within that file.
Quoting the comments in my copy of that file:
# MAKE_ARGS: hash
#
# This is a hash of ports glob = arguments mapping. portupgrade(1)
# and portinstall(1) look it up to pick command line arguments to
# pass to make(1). You can use wildcards (ports glob). If a
# port/package matches multiple entries, all the arguments are
# joined using the space as separator.
#
# cf. -m/--make-args of portupgrade(1), ports_glob(1)
#
# e.g.:
# MAKE_ARGS = {
# 'databases/mysql323-*' = 'WITH_CHARSET=ujis',
# }
That looks like exactly what you're looking for.

will work, but it will define whatever you set for *everything* you do

Invalid partition error after install
It seems everytime I install on a scsi disk without the boot manager option (i.e. it's a single OS machine), I cannot boot the system after install. I have to create a fixit disk and install the boot manager in order to use the system. I've seen various complaints in the email archives about boot problems after install, but no definitive explanation of this specific problem. Am I doing something wrong or is this something that can be fixed. I've had this problem since I started with 4.5, but I suspect it's been around longer.
