I have been trying to see what people have to say on the internet. Something I came across is that the driver for vedio card might affect it. My cedio chip is ProSavageDDR K4M266, I can't run x-win when using original FBSD driver, but after installing a 3-rd party driver, I was able to get it up, and everything looked the way I wanted it! But just this mouse, it went crazy. It's a 2-button ps/2 mouse, I tried auto or ps/2 protocol in X config, nothing changed, I tried to put some moused related stuff in /etc/rc.conf, then I get a nice working mouse in my console, but my x-win won't start up because the mouse device is busy. Any help! thanks! No clue if that would cuase it. Try asking around on the X mailing list. The only time I've had this problem has been a crappy mouse, but given it works works on console now, I think that can be ruled out. Try setting the device as /dev/sysmouse. That iirc is the device that moused kicks stuff out to or something like that. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So obviously something weird happened. I dont do the assumption that you are not hacked, lets assume you are hacked. Take out the harddisk and make a backup of it. Then seal the original disk so that you cannot mess that one up. Do some forensics on the backupped harddisk (not the original!) For example install chrootkit, to see whether it has a rootkit installed, check if you mis anything else. Are there files that you did not notice before? What network connections are being made when the host reboots. etc. etc. I Certainly think that it's really weird that a file increased that much in size (while my 5.2.1-p4 systems are up2date). I also think that the file the security output misses, is strange, i assume that this isn't the first day the host is running.

I installed bind-9.3.2 in both computers, configured my /etc/rc.conf as follows: named_enable=YES named_flags=-u bind named_program=/usr/local/sbin/named it worked perfectly in my i386 box, particularly rndc worked fine. Now, in the sparc64 box, I tried: sparc64:/home/mrspock# rndc reload rndc: connect failed: connection refused WHY? I asked myself, in my i386 box it works fine. Then I tried: sparc64:/home/mrspock# rndc -V reload create memory context ... a lot of useful information, and then, this: using server localhost (::1#953) create socket connect rndc: connect failed: connection refused in my i386 box, the things were different: i386:/home/mrspock# # rndc -V reload create memory context ... a lot of useful information, and then, this: using server localhost (127.0.0.1#953) create socket connect create message render message schedule recv send message parse message create message render message schedule recv send message parse message Now, the problem seemed to be that my i386 opened communication with 127.0.0.1#953, and my sparc64 tried: ::1#953 Then I remembered that my rndc.conf file referred to localhost. The i386 converted it to 127.0.0.1 and the sparc64 to ::1. And finally, I found that, in /etc/hosts there were two lines saying: ::1 localhost 127.0.0.1 localhost and here I am... driving myself crazy... WHY DID NOT MY SPARC TAKE THE FIRST LINE OF localhost IN /etc/hosts/ AS MY I386 DID? To fix it, I just exchange those lines. Incredible, isn't it? What happened here? Should I report this as a bug??

IMHO it's TCP, nothing to do with telnet itself, Perhaps you can use a sysctl command to extend the tcp timeout value.

You need to set some variables -- either in the environment, or if you're installing via ports you can use /etc/make.conf and if you're using portupgrade(1) you can use either /etc/make.conf or /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf. See fetch(3) for details on the variables. Note that since both ftp(1) and fetch(1) use the same underlying library to implement FTP transport, these variable will affect both of those programs. To make ftp/fetch work via a proxy: FTP_PROXY= ftp://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:portnum/ HTTP_PROXY= http-proxy.example.com You don't need to fill in all of those parts of the URL -- reasonable defaults will be substituted, so typically you'ld set something more like the second example. To set those in the environment, edit your ~/.login (if you use tcsh(1) or csh(1) as your shell), ~/.profile (sh) or ~/.bash_profile (bash) and put in the correct style of setting the variable: setenv FTP_PROXY ftp-proxy.example.com (csh -like shells) FTP_PROXY=ftp-proxy.example.com ; export FTP_PROXY (sh -like shells) For /etc/make.conf -- see /etc/defaults/make.conf (or /usr/share/examples/make/defaults (I think) on 5.x) and look for the FETCH_ENV setting. You can set both FTP_PROXY and HTTP_PROXY variables in one go by: FETCH_ENV= FTP_PROXY=ftp://ftp-proxy.example.com/ HTTP_PROXY=http://http-proxy.example.com/; and for pkgtools.conf, add the settingd to the Environment Variables section. eg: ENV['FTP_PROXY'] = 'ftp-proxy.example.com' Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: Vim and NFS and ipfilter(strange problem)
hi all, i discovered what the problem was/is. I just want to post it here, because i think it is rather strange(and hopefully help other people who have the same problem). It did not only happen with vim, but with some other program's also(feh,nview). BTW i forgot to mention this, i use FreeBSD version 5.1 To find the problem i started with a new ruleset allowing everything on all devices. I then added the standard dangerous packages options(short, ipopts), and i noticed that NFS died when i added the short option. I switched back to the original config and commented that one out, and it worked fine. I only have to guess where the short packages are coming from :S They shouldn't be there I think.(BTW i have a realtech nic so maybee...) Sugestions are welcome, Cheers Vincent Vandalon wrote: Hi all, i've set up a firewall with ipfilter. Since i use the deny stance, i needed to jump trough some hoops to get NFS working. I am currently just manually mapping the ports mountd is using. But it seems to work... for 99% I am able to do with the mounted nfs disk what i want, i can create new files( 'touch newfile' and vi 'newfile2' and i can write content in the file with vi) i can delete, read. But(...) when i use viM it will hangs it self. I can't manually kill it(exit-status doesn't matter, it won't die). And i don't get an error, so i have no clue what's wrong. My guess is that it is still busy, looped or something... So i removed(==recompiled kernel) ipfilter and vim worked fine on the nfs mount. Recompiled my kernel again with ipfilter and vim hang itself again. So it is vim+ipfilter I think it is still something with my configuration fo ipfilter, i have a basic rules set. I am still in the learning/finetuning phase, but i coulnd't find anything about this on google, onlamp, freebsddiary etc. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Fw: problems reconfiguring kernel for sound
Sorry about the duplicate and cross post, but I am really stuck and have had no responses. The probe of my sound device on my laptop doesn't work -- it picks up the wrong device (the USB bus controller). Can anyone point me in the right direction, at least? I don't mind reading through source code, but I don't know where to start... Thanks! - Original Message - From: Peter Kurpis To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2004 10:20 PM Subject: problems reconfiguring kernel for sound I have a strange problem installing 4.7 on my Toshiba 1135 laptop. (I need 4.7 for compatibility reasons.) To add support for my Avance AC97 audio hardware, I added the following lines: device pcm device sbc0 at isa? irq 17 port 0x18C0 flags 0 options PNPBIOS (and tried various other permutations). The irq and port are from Windows, flags is 0 because there is apparently no DMA. When I reboot, it seems that my USB controller has taken over /dev/pcm ! dmesg | pcm pcm0: Intel 82801DB (ICH4) port 0x18c0-0x18ff,0x1c00-0x1cff mem 0xe0100800-0xe01008ff,0xe0100c00-0xe0100dff irq 10 at device 31.5 on pci0 Note that the IO port and memory addresses are right, but the IRQ is wrong (should be 17). I don't know what device 31.5 is, and don't know how to look it up. ? After cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV snd0 , if I try cat someAudioFile.au /dev/audio, it prints gibberish on the screen, and I can't recover control. What's even weirder is that when I comment out all the USB support lines (as well as the smbus, ichsmb, and smb device lines I added for the 82801) in the configuration file, and rebuild the kernel, the devices uhci0 through uhci2 and usb0 through usb2 *still* show up on bootup (and in dmesg)!

Hi freebsd-er, I recently upgraded my m/board and finally get x-window to
work again but my mouse is all very jumpy, I seem to lose control over it
and very hard to make it stay on one position.
This has happened to me when I had chosen the wrong mouse protocol ('mm',
'logitech', etc.) in 'XF86Config'
You may want to try reconfiguring that part of X11. If it acts no
differently, perhaps you have the wrong interface (note above). If it is
different, but not correct, try another protocol.
DISCLAIMER - my experience here is Linux, but the problem was in the XF86
configuration, which should be nearly the same..
I have been trying to see
what people have to say on the internet. Something I came across is that
the driver for vedio card might affect it. My cedio chip is ProSavageDDR
K4M266, I can't run x-win when using original FBSD driver, but after
installing a 3-rd party driver, I was able to get it up, and everything
looked the way I wanted it! But just this mouse, it went crazy. It's a
2-button ps/2 mouse, I tried auto or ps/2 protocol in X config,
nothing changed, I tried to put some moused related stuff in /etc/rc.conf,
then I get a nice working mouse in my console, but my x-win won't start up
because the mouse device is busy. Any help! thanks!
That sounds like the wrong 'device' selection, but I don't have any way to
check.

Take a look at your mail logs and see if there is unusual mail traffic. If the box has been taken, you can't trust the binaries any more.

Re: have i been hacked?
Hello everyone, Ok, i am almost certain i've been hacked now. I just checked the system for some strange accounts or things i didn't recognize. I didn't see anything in /etc/passwd, /etc/group, /etc/master.passwd, and so forth. I however ran chkrootkit and got two very disturbing errors, firstly it was going along reporting items as uninfected, then when it hit sniffer, the first of several files it died with the error: Abort Trap I'm going to take this machine down, back it all up, and do a reinstall. Also, an nmap scan of the machine from another box showed no unidentified open services. Keep the suggestions coming. Thanks.

What am I missing here? The makefile has this line in it: .if defined(OPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE) I can't understand why it would put it in /usr/local.

And why? Debug symbols. I love to have them everywhere. Try to strip the file, and it will be much shorter. Installed binaries should already be stripped if they're part of the base system. You have to make a special effort setting things in /etc/make.conf to prevent binaries being stripped on installation. The reason that rcp is so large on 4.x is that it's statically linked: % ls -la /bin/rcp -r-sr-xr-x 1 root wheel 251572 Feb 7 12:43 /bin/rcp* % file /bin/rcp /bin/rcp: setuid ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), for FreeBSD 4.9, statically linked, stripped On recent 5.x, rcp will be linked against the shared libc and consequently rather smaller in size.

Re: Telnet Operation Timed Out
Nikos, Thank you so much! The value is not in seconds but in milliseconds (wierd?). I set it to 1 ms which gave me a 10 second timeout however this is system-wide and I dont want to break things.

PCI-X support in FreeBSD
Hello, I was wondering if there were any plans to support the PCI-X bus in FreeBSD. The hardware release notes for both 4.9 and 5.2.1 only mention PCI.

Re: [SDBUG] lament about freebsd sacrifices
What you're basically complaining about is lack of OEM hardware device drivers and lack of open source drivers for devices whose specs aren't open. These are obvious sacrifices in any non-Windows operating system. Even the Macintosh platform has occasionally seen hardware which lacks proper drivers for MacOS. However, you'll notice that major manufacturers are starting to provide FreeBSD drivers. Since we lack the mainstream popularity of Windows and Linux, it is likely that we will fall just after Linux when it comes to receiving OEM hardware device drivers. In the mean time, hard working people are attempting to reverse engineer devices that they are interested in seeing supported. If you are interested in seeing certain devices supported, either learn how to write device drivers and start reverse engineering the devices you want to support, or privately contract someone to write the driver, or donate to the FreeBSD Foundation or individual developers of FreeBSD. However, having enumerated a very non-specific list of devices in your lamentation against sacrifices made when running FreeBSD instead of Windows XP, may I recommend you do what the rest of those of us who need those devices do: run Windows XP or limit your hardware purchases to supported devices.

False positives from chkrootkit? or hacked test server?
Greetings: My test system: FreeBSD 4.9-stable Pentium III 800 I read an earlier post about using chkrootkit to check for root kits (intrusions). I'm still learning about FreeBSD so I thought I would run this too. Well... I installed and ran chkrootkit. And the output shows that: Checking `chfn'... INFECTED Checking `chsh'... INFECTED Checking `date'... INFECTED Checking `ls'... INFECTED Checking `ps'... INFECTED No rootkits were found. This FreeBSD system is a test server running Postfix, Samba, Apache, PHP4, MySql, and akpop3. For a firewall I run IPFW. This computer sits behind a NAT router (linksys BEFSR41). The Linksys router forwards a few ports (25, 110, 80) to a different server (a Redhat-9 system). However, NO PORTS are forwarded to this FreeBSD system. My Redhat-9 server that runs Apache, Mysql, php4, and postfix. Question: Does chkrootkit ever generate false positives? This system has just few test websites on it (test data) and nothing else. But if this system has been compromised, then how? Given that any public services (forwarded from the router) coming across ports 25, 110, 80, 22 are sent to a different server altogether?

of the price for running a lean, mean operating system.

Vinum: How to safely remove a volume/drive from the configuration
Hello, so I had set up a rudimentary vinum configuration. I eventually rebooted the machine to make sure everything came up again correctly. It did, but it also picked up a couple of old drives and volumes that I had previously used for testing. vinum l now yields: 3 drives: D alpha State: up /dev/da0a A: 17244/488 MB (3532%) D backup_a_1State: up /dev/ad1s1b A: 31/19531 MB (0%) D backup_a_2State: up /dev/ad0s1a A: 39/19539 MB (0%) D beta State: referenced unknown A: 0/0 MB 3 volumes: V test State: up Plexes: 2 Size: 10 MB V test3 State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 20 MB V backup_a State: up Plexes: 2 Size: 19 GB 5 plexes: P test.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 1 Size: 10 MB P test.p1 C State: faulty Subdisks: 1 Size: 10 MB P test3.p0C State: up Subdisks: 1 Size: 20 MB P backup_a.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 1 Size: 19 GB P backup_a.p1 C State: up Subdisks: 1 Size: 19 GB 5 subdisks: S test2.p0.s0 State: up D: alphaSize: 10 MB S test2.p1.s0 State: crashed D: beta Size: 10 MB S test3.p0.s0 State: up D: alphaSize: 20 MB S backup_a.p0.s0State: up D: backup_a_1 Size: 19 GB S backup_a.p1.s0State: up D: backup_a_2 Size: 19 GB The drives 'alpha' and 'beta', along with volumes 'test' and 'test3' are old remnants. The question now is - how do I correctly and safely purge them from my vinum configuration? I tried: scode-whitestar# vinum stop test scode-whitestar# vinum stop test3 scode-whitestar# vinum rm -r test Can't remove test: Device busy (16) As I interpret the manpage, the use of '-f' should not be required. And indeed, I assume that '-f' should never be needed unless in extreme cases? In any case. At the moment my vinum configuration *is* expendable since I have not stored any data on any of the volumes yet, however I want to know how to do this correctly so that I can do it on a live system in the future. Btw, after 'vinum stop', the volumes state show as 'down'. But after an attempted rm -r, they go back to state 'up' (both test and test3, even though I only try to remove test). -- / Peter Schuller, InfiDyne Technologies HB PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller [EMAIL PROTECTED]' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.scode.org ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Best way to do network printing with parallel inkjet printer?
On Wed, 14 Apr 2004, Nicholas Jackson wrote: I have an Epson inkjet printer (Stylus Color 740) that I have working with apsfilter. However, I have not been able to get it working as a network printer (as well as local) with Ghostscript yet. Where is the best description of a good way to get this working? The cups, documentation, for example, is not very intuitive... Generally, you set up the client computers to send to lpd on the print server computer by adding an entry to /etc/printcap on each client: netprinter:\ :lp=:\ :sh:\ :mx#0:\ :rm=myprintserver:\ :rp=myprintqueuename:\ :sd=/var/spool/output/lpd/netprinter:\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs: netprinter is the name of the printer as the client will refer to it. myprintserver is the hostname or IP address of the print server computer, and myprintqueue is the name of the queue from the print server's /etc/printcap. You also need the hostnames of the clients in /etc/hosts.lpd. Note that you should not use print filtering software on the clients (for example, apsfilter on the clients as well as on the server). Converting client output for a printer, and then sending it to the network print server where it is converted again, is bad in several ways. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What happened after gnome upgrade??
Hi there, Something strange has happened. In gnome-2.4 I had the CPU/Memory/Network monitors setup on my bottom bar, as well as my battery meter, etc. Now with Gnome-2.6 upgraded (mostly OK, crashed towards the VERY end...), all my things don't work right anymore. All apps like GnomeMeeting, the battery meter, etc appear to be completely messed up. For the most part, they run, but none of the words, etc are there! The battery meter, when I click on it, only shows the Do Not Enter ERROR box, no text and nothing else visible - again, no words, etc. The same goes for GnomeMeeting. Also when I try to run the proccess display applet, nothing shows up, just the line graph of CPU usage, but nothing such as process names, descriptions, etc or menu items along the top shows up anymore. HOW do I fix this?! This is driving me crazy - help is appreciated.
