FreeBSD Installation Problems
Dear Sir/Madam, I am trying to install FreeBSD into my Personal Computer system. I am facing a problem. I do have the 2 dos image floppies available. I am using the "Standard" installation method. Then I chose to install FreeBSD using the FTP method. Then, I chose to connect using the PPP method. However, at this point I am receiving a message such as "Warning: No /dev/tun 0 device PPP will not work !" .. "Uable to start PPP. This installation cannot be used." Can you please assist me introubleshooting this problem. Please reply to me via email. Thank You. Add photos to your messages with MSN 8. Get 2 months FREE*.

No xvideo support for ATI Rage Pro?

Hi, Is there any driver that provides xvideo support for ATI Rage Pro / 128? I cannot get fullscreen support with mplayer. You you try the gatos drivers: http://gatos.sf.net The driver binaries for linux will work on FreeBSD, too. It is also possible to compile them yourself, but you will need the XFree sources for that. Btw. There are also DRI-enabled versions of that driver, but AFAIK the kernel modules have not been ported to FreeBSD yet. HTH, Simon pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: Three Terabyte
Let's say I need 3Tb of cheap storage (preferably IDE disks) and I want it controlled by a FreeBSD system; how (if at all possible) would I do set that up in terms of hard- and software?

XFree86 reboot problem
Hello! I've recently tried to start 2 X sessions from 2 virtual terminals - one as unprivileged user and one as root. It went just fine the first time. Then I quit the root session and tried to start it again (while still running another session as user). This time, however, the system went into reboot without any warning. I assume this shouldn't happen, but I don't know where to start looking to correct this behavior.

Re: Multiple Internet connection with failover/load-balancing
Domain Administrator wrote: Hello all, We've been offering commercial Internet failover/load-balancing products to our clients, but we occasionally receive requests by some clients to provide less costly solution. While full redundancy for both inbound and outbound traffic will require BGP or OSPF, these clients simply wish to join multiple Internet connections (DSL, ISDN or T1) from different providers to gain failover capability should one of their links failed. Without ISPs' support, this type of redundancy only applies to outbound traffic, but that will suffice the clients' requirements already. I searched through the mailing lists and forums but found only very limited resources on how to accomplish such gateway/firewall setup using FreeBSD (or other BSD). It seeems for this type of setup requires running of multiple NAT daemons. Has anyone done something like this? or point me to any HOW-TOs?

That's what you did with 'use.perl port', and you can check that it appended a couple of lines about the perl version to use to /etc/make.conf. From now on make will use the port version when installing perl stuff, and perl scripts will too. Although ports that had been installed before might need to be rebuilt indeed, or have at least their dependencies fixed. # The second is a project For best results you should keep different questions on different e-mails with relevant subjects.

I've been tussling with installing implementing FreeBSD 5 on a laptop for about 2 weeks now. The initial install took 4 days (which I expected given I knew nothing about BSD) I've whittled down the install time to approximately 45 minutes from a DOS partition. I reinstalled because not all my hardware functions. Yesterday my buddy who recommended I try BSD as an alternative to Linux came over we attempted the install of BSD 4.7 because it was stable. I had hoped that we would be able to configure a PCMCIA ethernet card on the front end of the install by checking the conflicts punching in the ports IQ's documented by Windows (laptop, dual booted). We tried using the FTP site but the card didn't function. I tried the same paradigm for the CD ROM with the same results. OK, rather than suffer the anticipated wrath of the BSD community by posting to an inappropriate area, I have several questions about this experience. I joined the newbie group because I am a newbie will want to ask questions. I've read until my eyeballs are swimming with inuxes am slightly frustrated because I simply want to learn the OS rather than search newsgroups for the appropriate forum. When I click the link http://www.freebsd.org/search.html , to search, a redirect shuttles me to a message that the link doesn't function. So, I'm posting here because my concerns are newbie concerns. Hopefully, someone will take the time to comment. 1) If I don't find specific hardware listed in the hardware list, does that mean the drivers aren't available period? People expound on the advantages of open source code being ultimately customizable. In short, if the drivers aren't available for a device, and the kernel can't be configured, what can be done (if anything) to get the device to function? 2) Given the scenario (and post discussion with other inux users) it has been suggested that I try Linux initially to get my feet wet in the inux environment. My buddy says to stick with BSD. In the endless documentation I've perused, mention was made of Open Net BSD. My perception was that those flavors maybe better suited to my goals. Frankly I don't know want to gather some feedback. So, if someone is out there cares to perhaps elaborate, it would be appreciated. I have several computers, Windows Macintosh want to learn UNIX.

Re: IPFW - keep-state/check-state And setup/established Confusion

I'm using ipfw2 to setup a firewall on 4.8-RC for my home network.
I used the rule set at
http://www.bsdtoday.com/2000/December/rc.firewall.current
as an example but am confused regarding the differences between
setting rules using setup/established and keep-state /
check-state. I've read the ipfw man page and understand that
setup/established matches syn/ack bits in a packet where
keep-state/check-state actually creates a dynamic rule.
But not being real knowledgeable about how IP packets are
constructed, I'm not sure what this means in the real world.
It means that `established' uses a very simple test of packet contents
to find out if this packet belongs to an existing connection. This
simple test is good enough for some packets, but will match packets
that are not part of a real, existing connection too.
If I understand it correctly, the example at BSDToday basically uses
setup/established to allow traffic in for services that I allow.
So in my case I would use it for FTP, SMTP, SSH, and HTTP. Then the
rule set uses keep-state/check-state for connections originating
from my internal network to the outside world. But why should I not
use keep-state/check-state for everything by adding my check-state
rule near the top and then adding the following rule for incoming
services:
ipfw add allow ip from any to $inwr 21,22,25,80 keep-state
As a matter of fact, you should. The 'established' keyword is not as
nice as a real, stateful firewall (which {keep,check}-state gives you).
I've actually done this and it is working but I'd like to know if
this is a good or bad idea and why.
In a reply to a private message, a few weeks ago, I tried to explain
the different to someone. Here's the message, without any names.

Indeed! I do have the variables listed defined, and have natd

answer my question, but gave me a better understanding of ipfw!
I did? Oh, cool :)))
Just wondering, do I not need the 'established' rule to let existing
connections persist?
The ipfw manpage contains this description of the 'established'
keyword, which means a lot to someone who knows how TCP handles
connections and what the bits RST and ACK are used for.
established
Matches TCP packets that have the RST or ACK bits set.
This is, alas, a very cryptic and strange thing for someone who
doesn't know the internals of the TCP protocol. Which is something
that I wouldn't expect the casual reader of the manpage to know. The
detailed explanation of how this keyword matches packets is very large
for me to include in a single email reply, and I won't even attempt to
do something like this.
For the moment, let's say that 'established' is a very simplistic way
of filtering packets that are part of an existing connection. The
keep-state and check-state combination that I used instead of your
initial established ruleset works a lot better and has a quite better
chance of blocking packets that are not part of a real TCP
connection. Bearing this in mind, you might find it easier to accept
the keep-state/check-state pair as a safer way of filtering. The
keep-state keyword creates a dynamic rule for ever successful
connection that matches, and check-state runs through the list of
dynamic rules looking for matches before passing a packet. It's safer
to use because the dynamic rules are created by keep-state to match
the existing connections and then deleted after the connection dies;
instead of allowing through any packet that is possibly part of an
existing connection because it includes one of ACK or RST flags or
both.
When you use the 'established' keyword, your firewall is open to
attacks by ingenious hackers who know the way TCP works and create
their own 'custom' packets, including RST or ACK flags, in the hope
that their packet will pass through improperly configured firewalls
(such as those who depend on 'established' for their blocking rules).
Once a packet has been allowed through by an 'stablished' rule it will
probably have a chance to reach the internal network, going out
through a different interface, and let the attacker establish a
limited but nevertheless important channel of information retrieval
for your internal network.
Now, after all this, you might be wondering if 'established' is so

Thank you for the explaination. It does help. One other question I have is
that I never see the check-state packet count incrementing. However I
vaguely recall reading somewhere that it doesn't, even when packets pass via
the rule. Is this correct?
I'm happy to know that the keep/check-state rules are the way to go. It
makes my rule set simpler too. Now on to traffic prioritization via
dummynet! :)

However, I find that '-vo xv' is inferior to both '-vo dga' and '-vo xvidix' in respect of color (more noticable on some videos than others). It tends to win for smoothness of playback, but I find that I generally get best results with 'xvidix' these days (which directly supports my ATI Rage Mobility M1, laptop with PIII-600).

lowest possible mhz speed for playing mpeg/dvd video ?
Hello, I am considering purchasing a toshiba libretto 110ct with a pentium 233 mhz MMX processor. Is this speed/processor fast enough to play mpeg video and DVD movies from my hard drive, assuming I have _no_ hardware acceleration at all ? I want to use this small notebook for watching movies on planes, etc. (among other things) and am wondering if the CPU is up to the task. Previously I had tried video on a 166 mhz MMX and was not successful. Any comments are appreciated - especially regarding how well it will work. Even if it _technically_ works on a 233 mmx, if the playback will be spotty and bad, it's still not worth much... thanks!

A Great Media Opportunity conference reminder too
Hi Friend; Hope all is well by you and yours. We have an item of interest for you on this email. It is from an editor of an Inflight National Magazine. I am sending you her request. For those of you that are looking for National exposure, this can be awesome. Thanks for helping with my research. My deadline to receive input from your members is Monday, March 24. I write a column every month called Who, what, when, where, why? for our in-flight magazine. I try to choose a timely monthly topic. For instance, May will be unusual works of art with a mother theme, for Mothers Day. Because June is a favorite month for weddings, I have decided to try to find unusual wedding stories that took place in June. Any year is fine, I just need to know the exact date, as well as the who, what, when, where and why of it. The trivia can be crazy or extreme things that celebrities did, but it doesn't have to be about celebrities. I found one myself about the longest engagement in history. It was cited in the Guinness Book of World Records, and it was a Mexican couple who had been engaged for 67 years, before finally typing the knot at 82, in June of 1969. The most important thing is that the information can be verified by a reputable source, just like the Guiness Book of Records. While the stories might be great, I can't publish hearsay in the magazine. If the person can't remember where they read it or heard it, I can try to verify it myself, but if they do know, they should include that information. We always double- and triple-check everything. I'm also looking for sources. If any of your members know of a great Web site or book on this topic, that would be extremely helpful. I have just begun my research, so everything is appreciated. And of course if anyone has a photo related to their story (that we are allowed to publish), please send it. Thanks! Elizabeth Cullum Managing Editor I told her I would collect the stories and forward them to her. So if you have a June wedding story, let me know and VERY soon as her deadline is March 24th. Please keep checking on the conference schedule for the wedding industry. Our World Conference is scheduled for Oct 12-17 in Montego Bay Jamaica. To see all of the wedding conferences visit our web page at http://www.afwpi.com/wedproconferences/index.html please if you are aware of some conferences (National in scope) please let me know so I may assist in promoting them. Best Regards Richard Ps Please foward this email to any of your associates that you believe would be interested. Sorry if you received have already received a copy of this. This email is for Wedding Professionals. If this email reached you in error, please click on the link below. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]@freebsd.org and we will remove you from future emails. If you would prefer to receive newsletters in your category (DJ, Photo etc), let me know that as well and I will remove you from this list and add you to one more suited to your industry.

Re: I'm writing about FreeBSD...
Alan Freedman wrote: Dear FreeBSD People: Hello computerlanguage.com person. I'm the Editor-In-Chief of Computer Desktop Encyclopedia and would like to add an entry for FreeBSD. What I'm most curious about is what's the difference between FreeBSD and OpenBSD? OpenBSD is more like NetBSD than FreeBSD. Any chance you could illuminate me? I'm on deadline and would really appreciate any help you could give. The main differences are the project goals, which can be seen on the websites. The exact differences in codebase and commands are beyond easily describing. To put it in a few short sentences: OpenBSD is primarily focused on security. Everything else in development takes a back seat to security. OpenBSD also pioneered a proactive approach to security that it seems everyone else (who cares about security) is trying to mimic. OpenBSD also inherits a lot from NetBSD, which it is descended from, which means it runs on tons of different hardware. FreeBSD has focused primarily on i386 architecture until relatively recently. While FreeBSD is very secure, it's entire existence doesn't revolve around security like OpenBSD. FreeBSD is not a descendent of NetBSD, but (like NetBSD) is a direct descendent of the original BSD. Both are excellent systems and have their merits.

Matrox G450 support in FreeBSD 5.0
The Matrox G450 video card is supposed to able to handle 2 monitors on the
single PCI card.
The 5.0 doc indicate that it includes XFree86 4.3.0 release which supports
this card.
When 5.0 is loaded, and i look at the mga driver man page, i get XFree86
4.2.0.
Question:
I need to be able to use the two monitors separately as two separate units
( not showing the same stuff on both ).
1) Do i need to download 4.3.0 from Xfree86 in order to get this support?
If so, Xfree86 4.3.0 is only supported on previous 4.x version of FreeBSD.
2) What is the XFree86Config file supposed to look like in order to
implementation dual separate head using the Matrox mga driver.
3) the man page talks about a mga_hal file. Can't find this anywhere? Is
this required?
4) do i need to start the xserver in a special way ?
5) can this done using motif mwm?
The system does work showing identical info on both screens. I need to get
true dual separate heads working.

Repeated ACKs - possible DoS?
I awoke this morning to face what looked like a partial DoS. On investigation, 2 client TCP connections from the same source to my webserver had been sending repeated ACKs for over 2 hours, and my webserver had been responding diligently with ACKs of its own. This doesn't look like a SYN/ACK flood - it's just a regular connection that seems to be in an ACK loop. The original client connections were logged in my apache logs, and the profile of the web visit looked normal, so I suspect this may have been an inadvertant DoS rather then a deliberate attack. To solve the problem, I blocked the source IP briefly which terminated the connections. Questions: 1. Is this common - have others observed this? (Note: I'm not interested in random ICMP/SYN/Whatever flood stories, just this specific scenario please.) 2. How does it happen, (malicious/misconfiguration)? 3. Is there a way to drop these connections automatically, (preferably within the stack itself, maybe after a configurable number of duplicate ACKs)? The stuff below is from tcpdump/apache logs. Thanks, Fitz. Notes: X is the remote machine.

I've read until my eyeballs are swimming with inuxes am slightly frustrated because I simply want to learn the OS rather than search newsgroups for the appropriate forum. When I click the link http://www.freebsd.org/search.html , to search, a redirect shuttles me to a message that the link doesn't function. So, I'm posting here because my concerns are newbie concerns. Hopefully, someone will take the time to comment. 1) If I don't find specific hardware listed in the hardware list, does that mean the drivers aren't available period? People expound on the advantages of open source code being ultimately customizable. In short, if the drivers aren't available for a device, and the kernel can't be configured, what can be done (if anything) to get the device to function? 1: It does list specific hardware, but the hardware it lists are chipsets. 2: Yeah, have not mentioned what hardware you are using. 3: 2) Given the scenario (and post discussion with other inux users) it has been suggested that I try Linux initially to get my feet wet in the inux environment. My buddy says to stick with BSD. In the endless documentation I've perused, mention was made of Open Net BSD. My perception was that those flavors maybe better suited to my goals. Frankly I don't know want to gather some feedback. 1: Try out BSD first. 1: Nice support 2: Nicely documented 2: 1: OpenBSD is targeted at security. 2: NetBSD is aimed at making a highly portable/ported OS. So, if someone is out there cares to perhaps elaborate, it would be appreciated. I have several computers, Windows Macintosh want to learn UNIX.

Re: lowest possible mhz speed for playing mpeg/dvd video ?

I want to use this small notebook for watching movies on planes, etc. (among other things) and am wondering if the CPU is up to the task. Previously I had tried video on a 166 mhz MMX and was not successful. Any comments are appreciated - especially regarding how well it will work. Even if it _technically_ works on a 233 mmx, if the playback will be spotty and bad, it's still not worth much... Without acceleration or at least overlay I think this won't be enuff for DVD. MPEG might work but it depends on which MPEG you're talking about and what resolution. Plus the battery definitely won't last long enuff for a film.

So performance wouldn't be important. Sure? Consider this: a. Filling 3TB with 1 Mbyte/s lasts more than 800 hours or 33 days. I do a nightly backup to disk. It's compressed (gzip), which is the bottleneck. I get this sort of performance: dump -2uf - /home | gzip /dump/wantadilla/2/home.gz ...

I'd expect a system of the kind that Maarten's talking about to be able to transfer at least 40 MB/s sequential at the disk. That would mean he could backup over 1 TB in an 8 hour period. b. Using ssh + dump/cpio/tar needs CPU power for encryption, especially when multiple clients safe their data at the same time. You can share the compression across multiple machines. That's what was happening in the example above. c. When using FreeBSD 4.X a fsck after a hard reboot will block the server. fsck'ing a full 3TB filesystem may need a long time. Its better to use several smaller file systems. You don't have to fsck at boot time, not even in Release 4. d. Wrong parameters for newfs may slowdown large filesystems and waste lots of space. Before using large filesystems read the manpage of newfs, especially the topics about options -b -f -i Correct. Check the -m option (free space %) as well. There's no reason to waste 8% of the space.

Re: lowest possible mhz speed for playing mpeg/dvd video ?
I am considering purchasing a toshiba libretto 110ct with a pentium 233 mhz MMX processor. Is this speed/processor fast enough to play mpeg video and DVD movies from my hard drive, assuming I have _no_ hardware acceleration at all ? I have an AMD K6-III 400 here, and I can watch DivX movies at 1024x768 using mplayer, but only with xv support from an old ATI Rage II and with the -framedrop option set. Unfortunately, DVD playback does not work, although my DVD drive is working in DMA mode. Replacing my ISA sound card with a PCI soundblaster did not help either...

As a matter of fact, you should. The 'established' keyword is not as
nice as a real, stateful firewall (which {keep,check}-state gives you).
A learning question: First, I am working from the understanding that
the keep-state flag results in _one_ rule from any to $inwr, but creates
the complementary $inwr to any rules for the return traffic on an dynam-
ic basis, and that there is one dynamic rule for each connection that is
active at the time. I welcome enlightenment if I am mistaken in this.
Given that one wants to run those four ports wide open to the world, won't
keep-state result in the firewall creating N dynamic rules for the return
traffic, where N is the number of connections open to those four ports?
When N is large (i.e., when there are many connections to those ports),
would it not result in fewer firewall rule comparisons to just run them
wide open and be done with it?
If one accepts traffic from anyone coming in to those ports, what is to
be gained by restricting the IPs to which our server can send return
traffic from those ports?
ipfw add allow ip from any to $inwr 21,22,25,80
ipfw add allow ip from $inwr 21,22,25,80 to any
Wouldn't this result in a maximum of two rules, instead of N + 1?
True. This is probably a good way of avoiding the overhead associated
with dynamic rules. I was only comparing 'established' to '*-state' ;)
