gnome2 and gconf-editor problem (was: 'epic quest')

PPP Firewall - can't telnet/ftp from intranet
Following the instructions at http://www.freebsd.com.pl/tutorial_en/dialup-firewall/article.html, I've got firewalling set up on a ppp connection. The problem is that now I can't telnet or ftp into the BSD box from my intranet (on dc0). Any ideas on what I did wrong or didn't do? Also, for some reason I don't understand, I've got two tun connections displayed in ifconfig: tun0 and tun1. I'm using an internal ip range 192.168.x.x for dc0.

Re: Install problems: de0: autosense failed
The Digital 21140A chipset is PCI only, I believe. Anyhow, since you've got that output, your kernel has recognised the card. It can't however detect the ethernet heartbeat signal, either because a) you haven't plugged it into the network correctly or b) because the card or cables are broken or c) the card is failing to autonegociate the media type correctly. The card is connected to a Netgear Switch, and Ive tried switching cables with the same result. So it seems that it is c) that is causing the problem. c) can be solved by adding 'media 10baseT' as an extra option to ifconfig as exactly as you did for netbsd. It's pretty clear where to put that in the Sysinstall dialog for configuring interfaces. Where should I do this? Do you mean in the the first menu (Kernel config menu, where I can choose Visual/CLI or auto)? Ive removed all conflicting networks (eg All), in the Visual menu; but this hasnt helped me. Ive tried to disable the ed0 device (ed0 seems to have the same irq setting as the de0 has during loading), but this didnt help. How can I setup the ifconfig? The only options in the CLI mode is change IRQ, memory adresses and Flags. The install process has never gotten into the sysinstall program, it always locks after the de0: autosense failed is displayed. de%d: not configured; 21140 pass 1.1 required (%d.%d found) Nope, havent seen that one. But here is the output for my card: de0: Digital 21140A Fast Ethernet port =xec80-0xecff mem 0xffbefc00-0xffbefc7f irq 10 at device 17,0 on pci0 de0: ACCTON EN1207 21140A [10-100MB/s] pass 2.0 de0: address 00:00:e8:31:88:0a pci0: unknwon card (vendor=0x1274,dev=0x1371) at 19.0 irq 10 ... ... afd0: failure to send ATAPI package command afd0: failure to execute ATAPI package command de0: autosense failed: cable problem?

Monitor power save mode in KDE
Hi, I can't figure out how to use the dpms parameters in KDE (version 3.0.2, build from ports recently). KDE seems to ignore the BlankTime/StandbyTime/ SuspendTime options in the XF86Config file, and the entry in the Control Center (Power Control/Energy) that looks like it should handle this doesn't work either. The help file there doesn't give a clue. When typing 'xset dpms force suspend' in a WindowMaker session, the screen suspends, but when doing this in KDE nothing happens. Also, power save works correctly while the kdm login screen is active. This problem has been around for a while (since KDE 3.0 or so) but I never bothered about it until now. TIA, Karel.

Unless you actually have one of those ISA devices, and you want it to work, then changing the settings in the kernel config won't actually affect anything much.

How can I setup the ifconfig? The only options in the CLI mode is change IRQ, memory adresses and Flags. The install process has never gotten into the sysinstall program, it always locks after the de0: autosense failed is displayed. Ah. No. I didn't realize you weren't even getting as far as interacting with Sysinstall. Normally when booting up the install system, the network ports are left unconfigured until you start trying to download packages by FTP. There's a pretty obvious dialog that Sysinstall steers you through for setting up your hostname, IP number, DNS server etc --- assuming you aren't using DHCP --- and that has a box for extra arguments for ifconfig. You might try unplugging your de0 network cable while you boot up Sysinstall, then plug it back in before you start actually doing the install. If that doesn't work, then probably the best thing you can do is beg, borrow or buy a spare network card, swap it for your de0 NIC, do the install and then swap the cards back, making changes to /etc/rc.conf as appropriate. Another thing to try is simply start with some brand new floppies and copy the installer disk images onto them --- bad spots on a floppy disk are all too common, and can spoil your whole day.

Hmm . . . come to think of it, that's a little terse. op is easy to configure, and it allows you give access to people not to certain commands but to certain commands *only* with certain parameters. It has lots flexibility in specifying which commands and which groups of people and so forth. Also whether to prompt for passwords or not with equal flexibility. It's also less syntactically painful when the user uses it.

Re: MS Dynamic DNS problems

Re: MS Dynamic DNS problems
Are you using a special Dynamic DNS update client, or relying on some
functionality in dhclient? Is the DHCP server a MS DHCP server, that
could update AD/DNS for you? It seems from your ping that the DNS entry
which your Win2k side registers lingers for a little while, long enough
for you to reboot into FreeBSD. On Win2k shutdown, the address is
de-registered (unless configured differently) from DDNS, so unless you
are using a DDNS update client to re-register on the FreeBSD side, the
registration won't work for too long. But the deregistration can take a
few minutes, depending on how busy the server is, so you might get
response from your entry for a few minutes after Win2k shutdown.

40 GB Drive -- fdisk thinks it's a 2 GB.. ?
Hi again, Just wanted to double check with you all to make sure there was nothing else to try. PROBLEM: Brand NEW Western Digital 40 GB Hard Drive in a Pentium 133 with an ASUS TXP4 motherboard with the newest BIOS picks up my 40 GB drive in the BIOS as a 33 GB or something close. When I boot off the FreeBSD 4.6 CD and want to start doing fdisk to partition the drive, it thinks it's a 2 GB drive. I've tried creating a 10 GB DOS partition, didn't work. I tried calling Western Digital for any "tricks", they had no idea.. They said it was a FreeBSD thing and sounds like it's treating it as a FAT16 file system, but he didn't know if FreeBSD calls it FAT16 and FAT32, etc... The drive is set to AUTO and LBA in the BIOS, but I've also tried manually entering the numbers. I've also tried to play with the geometries in the fdisk section and then it changed to a 33 GB drive or whatever, but when you go to make partitions and what not, they don't create -- so that didn't work. I think I've tried other things, but I'm drawing a blank! Oh yeah, one more thing.I hooked this drive up to a Celeron 1 GHz system I had laying around and everything went perfectly, as it should. I paritioned off the drive, I installed FreeBSD with the drive as a 38 GB or whatever and THEN I tried putting the drive back into the P133... FreeBSD began to boot and then stopped when it came time to mount the hard drives and came to a prompt that looked like this: mountroot So, if any of you have ANY ideas what I can try next... Please let me know... Otherwise I'll be looking to buy a CHEAP newer "barebone" system that won't have a problem seeing this as a 40 GB drive.

Random Hanging/Rebooting Problems
I apologize for filling up a lot of mail boxes, but I need some help, and I have no idea of where to look for answers but here. My problem is this : every once in a while, the computer hangs for a minute or two, then reboots. At one point, it felt like it had something to do with the APM, so I disabled that in the BIOS. That did not help. I have been methodically going through the daemons I had loaded and disabling them, but to no avail. I know it's not a load issue. The peak load shown is 0.31, at 10:09 this morning. Since that peak, the computer has reset itself four times, each time with a 1 minute load average of 0.00, (unknown), 0.04, and 0.01, respectively. The (unknown) load is due to a reset that occured just over four minutes after a previous one, where no load average was even retrieved. Those numbers were taken every minute, using the minute average, in an attempt to locate the problem. The resets occured at 10:43, 10:47, 11:05, and 11:50, showing a near random fashion of rebooting. I am including a list of installed packages (in hopes that someone might know if a package is causing the reboot), as well as the usual UNAME and DMESG data, along with my RC.CONF. At one point, Gnome was causing major X crashes, but that has been re-installed, and now I know that X is not causing the problem. If someone out there knows what is happening, please, by all means, help!

RE: Random Hanging/Rebooting Problems
Something is overheating inside your box because of dust build up or your power supply is failing. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Joseph Lewis Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2002 3:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Random Hanging/Rebooting Problems I apologize for filling up a lot of mail boxes, but I need some help, and I have no idea of where to look for answers but here. My problem is this : every once in a while, the computer hangs for a minute or two, then reboots. At one point, it felt like it had something to do with the APM, so I disabled that in the BIOS. That did not help. I have been methodically going through the daemons I had loaded and disabling them, but to no avail. I know it's not a load issue. The peak load shown is 0.31, at 10:09 this morning. Since that peak, the computer has reset itself four times, each time with a 1 minute load average of 0.00, (unknown), 0.04, and 0.01, respectively. The (unknown) load is due to a reset that occured just over four minutes after a previous one, where no load average was even retrieved. Those numbers were taken every minute, using the minute average, in an attempt to locate the problem. The resets occured at 10:43, 10:47, 11:05, and 11:50, showing a near random fashion of rebooting. I am including a list of installed packages (in hopes that someone might know if a package is causing the reboot), as well as the usual UNAME and DMESG data, along with my RC.CONF. At one point, Gnome was causing major X crashes, but that has been re-installed, and now I know that X is not causing the problem. If someone out there knows what is happening, please, by all means, help!

Re: Installing XFree86 from port - will disrupt clients?
On Thu, Jul 18, 2002 at 10:03:12AM -0700, Paul English wrote: I've had different experiences installing upgrades from ports while users are using the software. I'm particularly concerned with XFree86. /usr/X11R6 is being served from a central NFS server and all of the clients are using X. Will they be disrupted if I do a make install to upgrade XFree86 4.1.0 to 4.2.0? The config files should be the same, and in any case shouldn't be put in place by the install. But all of the libraries are going to change out from under a running system. It's definitely better to perform upgrades while the system is quiescent. Especially when those updates include new shared libraries --- you do want all your users to quit all their X applications which have those shared libraries mapped into their images, or the space on the filesystem used by the shlibs won't be released. Probably easiest is to wait for a quiet time, get all your users to log out and then un-export the shared filesystem and do the install. For ultimate sanity preservation, there's always the option of dropping the machine to single user mode to do the install.

How to tweak the contents of the initial .cshrc file
Hi All, I am looking to customize the post-install process of a custom FreeBSD 4.6 server. I would like to install some custom packages when a root user logs in to the system for the first time after a fresh install. If I knew where in the install CD1, the actual creation of root's .cshrc takes place, I thought I could add some custom script to that and take care of my post-install configuration process. If that sounds like too round-about a way to achieve what I want, please suggest alternatives. Thanks.

Re: /cdrom for normal users?
there is no such parameter passable to mount called users. it needs to be removed. if you can mount it from the command line, you should make the fstab line agree with it, and i see no reason why it wouldn't then work. keep in mind that in your fstab, you are attempting to mount the CDROM onto /cdrom. on the command-line, you mounted it onto ~/cdrom. does localuser have permissions on /cdrom? what are those permissions right now? so, in fstab: /dev/acd0c /home/localuser/cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 should work fine. change permissions on /cdrom and i'd assume: /dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 should work fine. -Adam (07.18.2002 @ 1154 PST): Steve Mazerski said, in 2.1K: On Thursday 18 July 2002 20:09, Daniel Bye wrote: On Thu, Jul 18, 2002 at 07:15:10AM -0700, Balaji, Pavan wrote: By default, cdrom is /dev/acd0c is only mountable by root in FreeBSD.

DHCLIENT problem
I'm have a FBSD 4.6 box connected to the internet using a cable modem. I use the DCHP client that comes as part of the basic install to auto configure the FBSD box with it's ISP assigned dynamic public ip address and it's DNS ip address. The box act like everything is configured correctly because I can access the internet ok. Ifconfig -a on the NIC device connected to the cable model gives inet 68.65.175.62 broadcast 68.65.175.255 Every morning I have these 2 console messages 'DHCLIENT: New Network number : 68.65.175.0' 'DHCLIENT: New Broadcast address : 68.65.175.255' When I issue the ifconfig command in the morning after getting those two messages, I still get inet 68.65.175.62 broadcast 68.65.175.255. I thought the 'DHCLIENT: New Network number : 68.65.175.0' message is telling me that my public ip address has been changed from 68.65.175.62 to 68.65.175.0 Can someone explain what is happening here?

The new FBSD 4.6 version just displays the following message 'Doing initial network setup: Hostname' Note that the hostname is not directly related to networking, it's just the name you give the system.

tcp SYN retries?
When I attempt to make a sock_stream connection to an IP, and DON'T receive an ACK or RST response, it seems that the system retries a finite number of times by sending additional SYN packets. There also looks to be a 3 or 6 second delay between SYN retries. After four or five, the connection fails. Is there a way I can change the interval time for SYN retries, or decrease the number of times it retries? I would imagine this would be dependent on the particular tcp/ip stack implementation of my OS. I'm using FreeBSD and would imaging some kernel sysctl variable would control this... Any ideas? Or perhaps it's a socket option? Thanks! --Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

installing gcc from ports question
Hi folks I am upgrading gcc as required by the gnustep tools I want to use, and have a couple of questions: 1. What is the latest port release? I assume it's 3.0.4, since the 3.1 in the ports appears to have a snapshot of the 3.1 cvs source, even though gcc.gnu.org lists it as released as of 5/21/2002. I'm new to how the ports work for gcc, so I may have the wrong idea here. 2. After installing the gcc30 port, I now see that the newer gcc, g++, etc have been placed in /usr/local/bin, except they still have 30 appended to them (gcc30, g++30, etc). Am I supposed to manually rename the older gcc/g++ in /usr/bin, and remove the 30 extensions, or should I have expected the make util to do that?

A: How big /var ? Or: too small for the xemacs package?
Me again.. Just had a call from the RTFM daemon: To answer my own questions... I moved /var to a larger partition (see http://www.freebsddiary.org/file-system-full.php for a HOW-TO) Questions: - I presume pkg_add puts temporary files in /var. Is this normal / sensible? pkg_add uses /var/tmp. (any reason why not /tmp?). The manpage says: ... The environment variables PKG_TMPDIR and TMPDIR, in that order, are taken to name temporary directories where pkg_add will attempt to create its staging area in. If these variables are not present or if the directo- ries named lack sufficient space, then pkg_add will use the first of /var/tmp, /tmp or /usr/tmp with sufficient space. ... - what would be a reasonable ball park figure for /var? On a desktop system a good couple of hundred MB? Even then it might be prudent to symlink /var/tmp to a larger partion when installing bloatware ;-) Or do this (again from the man page): ... -t template Use template as the input to mktemp(3) when creating a ``staging area''. By default, this is the string /var/tmp/instmp.XX, but it may be necessary to override it in the situation where space in your /var/tmp directory is limited. Be sure to leave some number of `X' characters for mktemp(3) to fill in with a unique ID. You can get a performance boost by setting the staging area template to reside on the same disk partition as target directo- ries for package file installation; often this is /usr. ...

Re: chroot
How very interesting... For a start, you can't copy devices with cp--you need something smarter like tar, cpio, ... Pretty much anything that could be used for backups should understand the niceties of copying a device. As an alternative you could use mknod to create them. Here is how to do it with cpio: cd /dev find null random urandom -print | cpio -pdmuv /home/chrootuser/dev/ and then compare the results with ls -l to make sure you're happy. Specifically, using cp to copy /dev/null is a method of creating a new empty file, or completely emptying out an existing file. Secondly, are you sure you weren't connected? If you could use control-d to terminate the connection it looks to me like you were connected but had no prompt. Control-d is an end of file indicator; when you give it to a shell that means there are no more commands. Since the sole purpose of a shell is to let you execute commands, this results in it terminating (as it does for any program that primarily processes input). However end of file is only meaningful if it's read by something. It doesn't generate any sort of signal to catch the attention of a hung program. Try connecting again and typing a command that should work, like /bin/ls /bin or even something more basic like set (which is builtin to all the shells). If you get something, you're connected.

ports fail to build - Help
Hi guys. I have about 15 ports which fail to build all with the same error:
checking for i386-portbld-freebsd4.6-gcc... cc
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create
executables
as far as I could debug it, it seems that conftest.c is actually created empty. I
cannot understand why. I have about 100 other ports which compile properly. I just
rebuild world and kernel yesterday with no problem.
Also I cannot build autoconf:

Re: When is FreeBSD going to work properly with KVM switches?
On Wed, Jul 17, 2002 at 04:37:34PM -0700, Michael Wells wrote: I also have the problem that the KVM must be set to the machine being booted in order for the mouse and keyboard to work properly. This is a know problem and there was discussion on it. The problem seems to have appeared with 4.2. I saw a fix in the freebsd-stable archives: Message: 4695118, FROM: John Baldwin, DATE: 11/20/2000 16:43:35 SUBJECT: RE: 4.2 Showstopper? Belkin KVM switch problems with FreeBSD 4.2 Basically the proposed solution was to remove the `flags 0x1' from the atkbd0 device line in the i386/conf/file This fixed the problem I was having with the Omni Cube 4-Port. I have not checked if this problem still occurs with 4.6. Actually, if one searches through the archives you'll find the mouse/kvm issue dates back to the 3.x days. Apparently it isn't a high priority so I wouldn't hold my breath for an always working fix. I really really really wouldn't be so quick to assume the problem is FreeBSD. In my experience, Belkin's are not very good KVMs, I won't use them any more, personally. I've had problems with them not correctly initializing keyboard or mouse ports with Windows as well. Never had a problem with FreeBSD and KVM switches, personally. If you want a good KVM, stick with either Avocent (my personal preference - used to be Cybex and Apex), Raritan, Rose, or one of the companies that OEMs the Avocent switches. (ie Compaq, HP, Dell) The cheapo KVMs are cheap for a reason. (Then you've got RichardH saying Belkin's are overpriced, LOL.. well I never tried D-link KVMs, maybe they're OK for a cheapo model :-) I have a Belkin 4 port OmniView that works just fine with FreeBSD and w2k. I had to add a flag to my kernel to keep things study when switching back and forth, but other than that it's been just fine. I use a Belkin 4 port OmniView Pro with FreeBSD 4.x, NT 4 and Win2k, and a Logitech optical mouse. I initially went to the local computer store and bought the cheapest thing they had. That didn't work, so I went back and upgraded. That didn't work either so I upgraded again... The process ended with the Belkin Omniview, which was the cheapest thing in the store that worked reliably. Except that after the thirty day return period ended, my mouse cursor started dancing on rare occasions, and to avoid the out of sync messages from FreeBSD, I have to start up with the KVM pointing to a Windows host. Setting flags doesn't help. One of the cheaper KVMs that didn't work was the Belkin Cube. From my experience and various good and bad experiences that other people have had, I would guess that the more expensive Belkins are just marginal, and buying one is a crap shoot. You may get a KVM in which all the components work properly together and the KVM is reliable, or you may get one in which a couple of components are just out of spec enough that they don't work properly together and the KVM is a dog. (My appologies to any members of the genus Canis who happen to read this.) Sometimes a Belkin works with Windows but not FreeBSD (my experience) and sometimes it works with FreeBSD but not Windows (other peoples' experience). I haven't tried the dlink that someone else mentioned, but my experience is that anything less expensive than the OmniView isn't going to work, and the OmniView itself is variable. Basically, I would advise anyone buying a KVM to wait until they have enough money for something better than the top-of-the-line Belkin. Even if you can return a KVM that doesn't work, some problems may pop up after the return period is over. Bob Hall -- Access Hamsters: Free tools for users, DBAs, and developers.

Re: chroot
I haven't looked over what you've done all that thoroughly, but here's some starters: The first thing I would do is to turn up your server log level and have a look at what it says. It's an option in the sshd config file. I take it you didn't install 'su' in your chroot area. 'sh'? You very likely need a log device. start syslog with the appropriate option. Take a look at lsof output for an active sshd process. It shows a number of libraries that you don't seem to have done anything about. eg: /usr/lib/pam_skey.so /usr/lib/libskey.so.2 /usr/lib/libdescrypt.so.2 /usr/lib/libmd.so.2 /usr/lib/pam_unix.so /usr/lib/pam_permit.so Andrew McNaughton On Thu, 18 Jul 2002, Michael Sharp wrote: Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 22:22:59 -0400 (EDT) From: Michael Sharp [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: chroot I installed ( or so I thought ) a chroot env last night and ran into some difficulties.

RE: giving priority to udp over tcp?
TCP traffic as such does not get any priority over UDP traffic, but the way in which the TCP messages are sent (Data Streaming) is different from the way UDP messages are sent (Datagram). In essense, UDP messages wait till there's enough space for the entire message before the message is added to the output queue. Whereas, if there isn't enough space for the entire message, a part of the message is sent and the rest buffered. So, it might appear to be getting higher priority for some applications.

I'm using FreeBSD 4.5 and have custom applications that send receive network packets over both tcp and udp sockets. For the sake of an example, assume that the udp traffic is always constant, but the tcp traffic density changes. During times of heavy tcp traffic density, will udp messages which have been sent to the out queue typically wait in the queue longer before being sent out? Does tcp traffic get some sort of priority? If so, is there a way I can de-prioritize tcp traffic and up the priority of the udp traffic to make certain all the queued udp messages get out as soon as possible...? sysctl variables? does it depend on the network card driver, or perhaps i'm imagining something that isn't there and the two traffic types are totally isolated! ;) Thanks! --Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
