Re: samba port errors

# [EMAIL PROTECTED] / 2002-09-16 23:47:33 -0400:
 has anyone tried compiling the samba 2.2.6.p2 port from -stable?
 
 i keep coming up with this error:

sed [-an] [-e script] ... [-f script_file] ... [file ...]

 is there a problem with the port, or just something weird going on? 
 thanx

the port is ok. grep /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk for REINPLACE,
and try to figure out why the check failed (iow, how come you run
-STABLE but your sed doesn't know the -i switch).

 After doing some reading, I've already issued, sysctl -w

 Any ideas?

You have one of more entries in your routing table having unreachable
destination gateway. You'll need to fix or delete such routes.

periodic diff format

2002-09-17 Thread Roman Neuhauser

Hi there,

various /etc/periodic scripts mail root diffs of a few config files etc.
grep on my (quite fresh) STABLE box shows that except for
/etc/periodic/daily/210.backup-aliases, all the diff invocations use the
old format. I have two issues with this: first, all the diffs should be
in the same format, and second, root should be able to select their
preferred format in /etc/periodic.conf (yes, i have difficulty reading
anything but unified diffs).

Now, before I start working on a patch, would such a change be actually
welcome, or am I going to get shot down?

And, what would the preferred interface be? Most of periodic.conf knobs
are bools, but I'm not sure
diff_{context,traditional,unified}_format={YES,NO}
is better than
diff_format={context,traditional,unified}

What do you think?

Either should work fine at keeping your files read-only, but you're
probably going over the top here.  If your system can be compromised
to the extent that the normal filesystem protections can be overruled,
then the game is up anyhow --- someone wth that level of access can
easily get around the sort of restrictions you're proposing.

If the intent is to prevent accidental deletion or modification of the
files while you're logged in as root, then 'chflags schg' is probably
appropriate --- you don't need to run at secure level 2 for the schg
flag to take effect, but you can only turn off schg at secure level 0
or lower.

If you're really paranoid about the files, then you could consider
storing the files on a medium that is read-only at the hardware level:
eg. write the files to a CD-RW, which you then mount from a CD-ROM
drive, or use a hard drive you've jumpered to be read-only.  Or you
could use a file integrity checker, like tripwire (ports:
security/tripwire) --- you can keep the tripwire checksum database on
a write protected floppy.  You should also store known good copies of
the file off-line as a backup: hardware failure is very good at
erasing files despite all the precautions a sysadmin can take.

Cheers,

Matthew

Moving gdbm databases from Linux to FreeBSD

2002-09-17 Thread Tony Russell

I have been asked to move a Python application that uses gdbm
(databases/py-gdbm) databases from Linux to FreeBSD. The actual database
files do not appear to be transportable; it appears to do with block
size from stat(2), and the fact that FreeBSD uses a 64 bit offset where
Linux uses 32 bits.

Short of unloading all the data under Linux and importing it again on
FreeBSD, does anyone know of a way to use the original Linux databases
on FreeBSD?

Re: Problems with ipfilter 3.4.29 under -STABLE (post 31/08/2002)

2002-09-17 Thread Claus Guttesen

Hi.

--- Robin Breathe [EMAIL PROTECTED] skrev: 
 Hi all,
 
 I'm interested to know if anyone is successfully
 running ipf/ipnat under
 -STABLE from after the merge on the 31st of August

I have installed stable 4.6.2 and did a cvsup on sept.
8-9'th of Sept. and did a make world and make kernel
on a custom-kernel without ipfilter compiled into the
kernel. Loaded ipfilter as a kernel-module and it
worked fine.

 I have found that my existing rulesets fail with the
 new code.  ipf
 blocks everything, and ipnat doesn't do NAT.  My
 rules are at
 http://isometry.net/freebsd/ipfilter/, and they've
 worked flawlessly
 with previous versions of ipfilter, in particular

Decided to compile ipfilter into the kernel and
nothing appeared to work. So I removed it again from
the kernel and reverted to use ipfilter as a loadable
module instead.

Works with NAT but does seem to have some issues
related to passive ftp from our inside network out to
the internet. The connection breaks after 60 secs. I
have 'pass out tcp port 21 keep state' etc. in my
config-file, but that doesn't seem to work as
intended. Tried to enable active ftp by adding the
'map ep0 0/0 - 0/32 proxy port 21 ftp/tcp' statement
into my ipnat-config-file. But not shure whether I got
it wrong or not.

 I am trying to work out whether the problem lies
 with the recent merge
 of ipfilter 3.4.29, or with my config.  And from all
 the testing I've
 been able to do, the problem seems to lie with
 ipfilter.  Other people's
 experiences with the new code would be greatly
 appreciated.

Can't dig too much into the ftp-issue since I need to
test traffic-shaping (will use IPFW for that purpose)
and lots of other stuff my boss wants me to do.

I'll do another make world/kernel when 4.7 has been
out for a week or so to see whether ftp works or not.

ports question

hi list,

i recently cvsuped my ports collection so that i can install the latest
software versions... but the problem is that when the new software is
installed the old one (that was installed during installation of freebsd)
will not be uninstalled (such as named 8.x.x and opessl-0.9.6a) and some
software needs the new ports to be used, as an example: apache2.0.40 needs
at least openssl-0.9.6g to be installed i tried to use portupgrade
openssl\* but without any success...
Is there is a method to uninstall the software installed by default with
freebsd so that the newly installed packages see the most recent installed
software

and thax a lot for any help

Since most ISPs are still IPv4 only you have to resort to tricks like
the IPv6-IPv4 tunnels to access the 6bone. It will not 'work properly',
until all the equipment IPSs use is upgraded to IPv6.

In the meantime you can play with IPv6 by getting a tunnel like those
freenet6, Hurricane Electric and others provide.

IrDA

2002-09-17 Thread Holger Wolff

Hi

I tried to find a solution about this in the FAQ, but either I'm too 
blind or else it isn't mentioned there - no matter what, I'm asking here 
hoping this to be the right place.

I've got an Asus L2400D Notebook (all hardware data I know of is shown 
at http://notebook.asuscom.de/serien/l2d/daten.html )
whith an AMD mobile Athlon 1200 MHz Prozessor. I'd like to access my 
Siemens Sl42i mobile phone via the infrared port under FreeBSD 
(4.6-RELEASE), especially to set up internet access (the phone has an 
internal modem).

There are several ports concerning irda (especially comms/birda), but 
whenever I try to access the infrared port with ircomm, I get an 
error-message like 'Cannot default the port!'.

I tried to build my own kernel - well, I did build it and it works well, 
but still it doesn't support infrared communication (or some other 
things like ACPI or the winmodem). Actually, I didn't even find an 
infrared support even in the LINT configuration.

Is it possible that FreeBSD just doesn't support IrDA, although it does 
  have an port for it (that then cannot be used) ?
Or are there external modules, and if: where can I get them ?

Are there any HOWTOs like there are for Linux ?

Thank you in advance

The key point here is that the backbone needs to support IPv6 for it to
work.  If your ISP's backbone doesn't know IPv6, then it won't get 
routed, even if the kit they use is capable of handling it.

You can tunnel IPv6 between widely distributed sites using the gif(4)
and faith(4) pseudo-interfaces.

Re: How do I use the -h option in PW to set passwords fo rnew users

Thanks very much for your reply. It seems to work OK.

I'm still not sure what requirements Samba places on the Unix users'
password when a Samba user is first created. It could be that the -h -
option in PW (set password to *) will work - I can then script Samba
password changes from within Samba itself (slightly off topic, sorry.)

 The crucial bit is the '3' construct: see the section on
 Redirections in the sh(1) man page for details --- bash(1), ksh(1),
 zsh(1) etc all support a similar mechanism, but csh(1) and tcsh(1)
 don't.

 You should probably use a file descriptor greater than 2 for this, as
 fd's 0, 1, 2 usually correspond to stdin, stdout and stderr
 respectively.

 Cheers,

 Subject: user organizer / decent adduser script
 
 hi.
 
 is there some tool that organizes a systems users and their uids? and perhaps
 updates all files belonging to a user with his/hers new user settings?
 
 also, what about a decent adduser script? enteruser complains about my `ninja'
 class which i've set up in login.conf and as default class in pw.conf. also it
 doesn't seem to make any use of my defaultshell set to tcsh.
 
 after a while the directory listing of my /var/mail looks like this:
 
 total 14
 -rw---   1 iyun mail  584 Sep  7 13:44 alliance

 now, this is all a mess. i'm tired of manual cleanups. any ideas people?
 
 thanks.

adduser(8), rmuser(8) ? I've simply scripted around these two utilities. 
IMHO keeping UIDs/GIDs straight and/or orderly is highly subjective and 
it's up to *you* to lay it out as you see fit.

Re: mount read only || chflags schg sec level 2

Jimmy Lantz [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 I'm looking for away to write protect
 some files whats the pros and cons
 with having the file on a seperate partition and mount that read-only
 or use the chflags schg and go to kernel security level 2?

*Either* way you probably want to raise the security level.  A
read-only mount doesn't help if it can be re-mounted writeable.  If
the files *have* to be in the same directory with writeable files (as
for many systems is true of /etc), schg can be a very good solution.
If the files aren't part of the standard system at all, then as
someone else suggested, write-only media are an easy answer.

   Hugh writes The FreeBSD NVIDIA Driver Initiative has
   announced[1] that nVidia itself will be releasing a FreeBSD

From what I read, some people have learned not to get exited until

ipfw, natd, and keep-state - unexpected dynamic rules generated

2002-09-17 Thread dfolkins

hi everybody,

i have a fbsd 4.6 router box sitting between a local net (192.168.0.255) and
a
single actual ip from a cable modem.  naturally, ive set up natd and ipfw on
it, but instead of going the old way with the semi-stateful rules i decided
to go with keep-state/check-state.  but problems arise with outgoing ssh
connections.  here is the relevant portion of my ipfw rules:

#set up NAT
${fwcmd} add 00050 divert natd all from any to any via ${oif}

# Allow the packet through if it has previous been added to the
# the dynamic rules table by an allow keep-state statement.
$fwcmd add 00200 check-state

# Run all private LAN $iif packet traffic through the dynamic rules
# table so the IP addresses are in sync with Natd.
$fwcmd add 00220 allow all from any to any via $iif keep-state

# Deny all fragments as bogus packets
$fwcmd add 00240 deny log all from any to any frag in via $oif

# Deny  ACK packets that did not match the dynamic rule table
$fwcmd add 00260 deny log tcp from any to any established in via $oif

# Allow out ssh connections
$fwcmd add 00640 allow tcp from any to any 22 out via $oif setup keep-state

seems like this should work, right?  initiating an ssh connection with an
external
host, and checking the dynamic rules (ipfw -ad list), the following two
rules are generated:

00220 84 12080 (T 599, slot 109) - tcp, 192.168.0.10 3106- {external
host ip} 22
00640 26 2130 (T 19, slot 166) - tcp, {my external ip} 3106- {external
host ip} 22

the rule for my external ip, though, only gets the lifetime value from the
syn_lifetime sysctl var, which is 20 seconds, and only the first rule
apparently gets the acks through it and gets a 600sec lifetime that is set
in ack_lifetime.  any other packets sent through teh connections reset the
lifetime of the above two rules to 600 and 20 again.  this would not trouble
me otherwise, but as soon as the second rule (20 sec) expires, the ssh
connection dies.

when i remove the word setup from rule 640, though, ssh connection does
not die.  the same two dynamic rules are created, with the same lifetimes,
but when the short-lived rule expires the connection is still there, upon
sending any data through it the short-lived rule does not get recreated.  i
am kinda stumped here.

any ideas?  whats wrong with my rules?  any help would be appreciated.

i've posted this to -security before, but have not gotten an authoritative
answer as to the reason this is happening, and i guess if same happens here
i will post on -ipfw.  and yes, i _have_ been advised to switch to
ipnat/ipfilter, but thats cheating :).  for that matter, so is removing
setup from the above rule 640.

thank you all in advance.

Compaq ML530 - SMP problem

2002-09-17 Thread Marcio Merlone

People,

I'm trying to set a SMP kernel for a dual compaq proliant ml530 but it 
states that mp table is broken.

At first try, it simply hangs on boot time when it seems to assing irq 
to apic. Then, on hardware configuration ([F10] at boot time), I've 
locked all resources (IRQ, IO, MEM, etc) at Compaq Configurtion 
Utilities, disabled on-board SCSI controller and now it boots, 
initialize CPU1 but still hangs when going to mount root from 
/dev/idad0s1a (a raid 5 device, Compaq SmartArray 221).

Follow mptable and dmesg (with kernel.GENERIC that boots fine):

CVSUP Question

2002-09-17 Thread Anthony Abby

What port does CVSUP use when syncing up?  I'm behind a firewall and can not get CVSUP 
to work from my system at work, but it works just fine at home.  I'm wondering if it's 
a blocked port.  If that's the case is it possible to get it to use a different port?

DHCPD doesn't want to bind to any interface

2002-09-17 Thread chojin

Hello,

recently I rebooted my box (FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE) and since this reboot, dhcpd 
cannot bind to any interface. I upgraded to FreeBSD 4.7-PRERELEASE then 
rebooted, same thing. The configuration file is ok and untouched for many 
months.
I use isc-dhcp provided with FreeBSD.

 Yes I think I did, however, perhaps you could point me in a direction that 
 might lead me to a guide to extracting informatrion about my system.  What 
 I am faced with is trying to get my irq and settings from my WinXP box.  
 When I look in WinXP device manager, I get one set of values, when my 
 startup routine (prior to OS installation) scrolls by, I see a different 
 set of values, and of course, finally, when I run the installation probe 
 for freeBSD I get a third set of values.  Where is the truth? ;-)
 
 Needless to say, I have no graphic interface for freeBSD (I installed 
 KDE).  I get a message to the tune of badly misconfigured...
 
 points please.
 Thanks,
 Stephen (newbie)

If you go into your system BIOS and turn off PnP support, the numbers 
reported by your system boot and the numbers provided by the FreeBSD 
installer should be identical. Normally the win32 numbers are 
less-than-relevant as that opsys does some resource remapping on its way 
up.

Turning off PnP support is a good idea and wDOS should run fine without 
it.

You get this message when? Can you provide us with the exact output? It 
would be easier to help if we knew what was wrong ;-)

Wireless Networking

I'm getting my hands on a 802.11a wireless network card and a base

laptop (dell Latitude C840).

Any ideas or links to check out?

Re: Wireless Networking

2002-09-17 Thread Adam Weinberger

just yesterday i bought a d-link wireless AP/router and a Dell 802.11b
pccard NIC, which is apparently just a rebranded Lucent WaveLAN.

i'm still fiddling with it to make it work correctly, but i can tell you
this:

a) make sure that
   device card
   device pcic0 at isa? irq 0 port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd
   is in your kernel. it is in the base install. either put:
   device wi
   in your kernel config file, or if_wi_load=YES in your
   /boot/loader.conf
   make sure pccardd is started from /etc/rc.conf

b) READ THE wicontrol(1) MANPAGE

c) seriously, read it. it's all you need to know.

d) put the commands you need into /etc/start_if.wi0. stuff like setting
   the IBSS stuff, the key, turning encryption on, etc.

also, see: http://darkminds.net/wlan/freebsd/swsetup.php

xdm is not working in 4.6-RELEASE

2002-09-17 Thread Eduardo Viruena Silva


Hello Pals,

I have installed FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE in a new computer,
I also installed X and KDE,  verything is working fine
except xdm.

I'm sure X is working because startx works.

In my /etc/ttys, I changed:

ttyv8   /usr/local/bin/xdm -nodaemon  xterm   off  secure
^^ on

to:

ttyv8   /usr/local/bin/xdm -nodaemon  xterm   on   secure


and then:

kill -HUP 1

my computer started blinking but even X did not start.

My computer was working perfectly fine with this changes in
version 4.5-RELEASE but not now.

Do you have any ideas?

thanks in advance.

-Eduardo

re: After editing freebsd.mc, how do I use this m4 processor?

2002-09-17 Thread Stacey Roberts

Hello,
 I've got a vanilla sendmail installation on my 4.6Stable box:
# sendmail -d0.4 -bv root
Version 8.12.5

I'd like to now set up sendmail to receive mail destined for my
(registered) domain. Now, I know I have to edited the freebsd.mc file in
/etc/mail, but after this, its not entirely clear how it is I am
supposed to proceed afterwards.

I read the README's in /usr/src/contrib/sendmail  /etc/mail, that's
shipped with my FBSD box, it doesn't *actually* say how to run m4. In
googling, I've picked up a couple for threads, that mentions m4 almost
in passing ( then use m4 to generate your blah.cf file that you
later copy sendmail.cf).

Could someone please tell me the following:

1] Where it is I can find out how to use m4 to generate a .cf file? 
2] Do I still need to run make in /etc/mail even though sendmail was
compiled and installed at system installation time?

Here's my uname info:

You can use the -nouser option of find.  Try running the following
command (it will take a long time to finish):

# find / -nouser  /tmp/filelist

When it finishes the file /tmp/filelist will contain a list of the
files that belong to unknown user IDs.  The find(1) manual page has
many more options that you might be interested in.

 I'd like to now set up sendmail to receive mail destined for my
 (registered) domain. Now, I know I have to edited the freebsd.mc file in
 /etc/mail, but after this, its not entirely clear how it is I am
 supposed to proceed afterwards.
 
 I read the README's in /usr/src/contrib/sendmail  /etc/mail, that's
 shipped with my FBSD box, it doesn't *actually* say how to run m4. In
 googling, I've picked up a couple for threads, that mentions m4 almost
 in passing ( then use m4 to generate your blah.cf file that you
 later copy sendmail.cf).
 
 Could someone please tell me the following:
 
 1] Where it is I can find out how to use m4 to generate a .cf file? 
 2] Do I still need to run make in /etc/mail even though sendmail was
 compiled and installed at system installation time?

You need to run make in /etc/mail to generate the new sendmail.cf,
submit.cf, etc.  Probably 'make install' followed by 'make restart' is the
best way to proceed.  The Makefile itself lists the various possible
targets in the comments at the top.

I guess you can grovel through the Makefile to figure out exactly how m4
should be invoked, but this isn't something you actually need to know in
order to reconfigure sendmail.

This make has nothing to do with rebuilding the sendmail binaries -- it
just deals with the configuration files.

Cheers,

Scott

Re: Compaq ML530 - SMP problem

 Hello,
 
 Yes, but.. how the heck should I do that? The only boot-time

When you hit F10 for the System Utilities, hit (I think...) CTRL-A, 
and you _should_ get a message to the effect that advanced config
options are now available.  I can't remember precisely what the 
option is called, but it is very ovbiously to do with multi-
processor operation.  There should be three settings for APIC mode,
and you need the one that mentions Full table, mapped ... (one is
just full table, and it's not this one you want.)

I am really sorry to be so vague - I just go through and change the 
settings without taking much notice of the text...

Let me know if you can't find it, and I'll test it on one of my boxes
tomorrow when I get back to the office.

 
 Sorry if it is a lammer question, but..

Gods no, it seems to fox a fair few folk...

The canonical way of converting .mc files to .cf on FreeBSD is to use
the Makefile found in /etc/mail (originally found in /usr/src/etc/mail).
Just edit freebsd.mc and then run:

# make

The file /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README describes that the same
thing can be accomplished with a command like:

# m4 -D_CF_DIR_=${CFDIR}/ ${CFDIR}/m4/cf.m4 config.mc  config.cf

after having set CFDIR to the proper value, of course (in the case of
FreeBSD this would be CFDIR='/usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf').

 1] Where it is I can find out how to use m4 to generate a .cf file?
 2] Do I still need to run make in /etc/mail even though sendmail was
 compiled and installed at system installation time?

Hopefully both have been answered :)

These would have been installed at the last time I recompiled the
kernel. I'm fairly comfortable in editing these files as required, but I
am pretty certain that after editing freebsd.mc (so as to define
masquerading, default gateway, etc), I am supposed to use m4 to generate
a new freebsd.cf, which in turn is copied to sendmail.cf, thus producing
a new configuration file for sendmail to read upon restart.

This is what I know of sendmail (back in v8.8x  8.9x) under AIX and
Sequent Dynix/ptx. Has this procedure since been deprecated for FreeBSD,
that I am now aware of?

Thanks again for the reply.

 You can use the -nouser option of find.  Try running the following
 command (it will take a long time to finish):
 
   # find / -nouser  /tmp/filelist
 
 When it finishes the file /tmp/filelist will contain a list of the
 files that belong to unknown user IDs.  The find(1) manual page has
 many more options that you might be interested in.

where's sasl.h?

2002-09-17 Thread Riley J. McIntire

Hi all,

I'm trying to install ASMTP for sendmail with sasl by modifying
/etc/make.conf with the following:

SENDMAIL_CFLAGS+=   -I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2
SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS+=  -L/usr/local/lib
SENDMAIL_LDADD+=-lsasl2

cyrus-sasl was installed via ports after deinstalling cyrus-sasl2.

Currently the system is 4.6.2-release.  The src tree was cvsup'ed to
4.6.2-R-p2.

The first buildworld was tried with cyrus-sasl2, which according to _some_
docs won't work, so I attributed the errors to that.  Deinstalled it,
installed cyrus-sasl, removed /usr/obj, make clean, and make -j4 buildworld
fails as below.

eg, /usr/src/lib/libmilter/../../contrib/sendmail/src/sendmail.h:127:
sasl.h: No such file or directory.  sasl.h isn't around.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Riley

Re: After editing freebsd.mc, how do I use this m4 processor?

2002-09-17 Thread Mike Hogsett


 Not deprecated, but streamlined.  If I understand you correctly, in
 /etc/mail, copy freebsd.mc to your.machine.name.mc, then do your editing on
 it.

Don't even copy it.  Just run make, then edit hostname.mc and run make
(again), make install and make restart.

  This is what I know of sendmail (back in v8.8x  8.9x) under AIX and
  Sequent Dynix/ptx. Has this procedure since been deprecated for FreeBSD,
  that I am now aware of?
 
  Thanks again for the reply.
 
  Stacey
 
 Not deprecated, but streamlined.  If I understand you correctly, in
 /etc/mail, copy freebsd.mc to your.machine.name.mc, then do your editing on
 it.
 
 make will run your.machine.name.mc through m4 to produce
 your.machine.name.cf.
 
 make install will cp the above to sendmail.cf.  make restart will read the
 new .cf files.
 
 Much easier than the old method.
 
 hth,
 
 Riley

Re: arplookup xx.xxx.xx.xxx failed: host is not on local network

2002-09-17 Thread Peter Radcliffe

Crist J. Clark [EMAIL PROTECTED] probably said:
 This is a netmask problem, but not really the one that other people
 have described. This is how it usually works. Your troubled machine
 above, servername, receives an ARP who-has from another machine on
 the LAN called clientname. However, the IP address that clientname
 gives as a source does not match up to any local networks that
 servername knows about.

 Note that this is not a harmless error. These two machine cannot talk
 to each other.
 
 The fix, of course, is to make sure all machines on the same LAN have
 the same netmask.

I get these errors generated on a machine which has the correct
netmask, no static routes, no incorrect routes of any kind.

During a migration there are multiple IP networks on the same physical
switched network, if I connect to one of the machines in the other
network on the same wire, I get that error. I'd like to just turn it
off, since it's annoying.

 this happens intermittantly.
 
 i don't know why, but when i connect to my FreeBSD box using putty, there
 is an extremely long pause for the following:
 
 1. the login prompt to come up
 2. the password prompt to come up after i type in the username
 3. the connection to be established after i enter the password
 
 can anyone let me know how i can aleviate this pause problem?

It's almost certainly a DNS problem. Make sure that both forward and
reverse DNS is working for the names/addresses of both systems.

Yes. ssh ALWAYS tries to resolve the ip address of the remote system.

Try entering the address of the remote system into /etc/hosts.

what is the freebsd version for useradd -M?

2002-09-17 Thread Bsd Neophyte


i'm setting up samba on my FreeBSD box.  the goal is to make it a PDC.

i'm following the directions from Samba Unleased by SAMS.

in the instructions, there's mention that each machine needs to have a
user account on the server.

it gives the following command to setup a machine account:

useradd -c Samba ODC fir MYDOMAIN' -M -s /bin/false -n PERSEUS$

now, I don't know what the -M stands for when you add a user.  i'm
assuming i need to use pw useradd.  when i try i get an error.

the man page for pw shows a -M, but it's only used for the groupadd
option.

i would like to know what i should use instead of the -M.

any and all help will be appreciated.

install questions

2002-09-17 Thread Mike Shlitz

I have an older machine, Pentium 233 MMX, 256MB SDRAM, 512 cache, (2) Western Digital 
8.4 GB HDD, 24X CDROM, 2X CDRW.
I am presently running it as a Win ME machine, with the (C:\) drive (hda) set as 
primary master and the (D:\) drive (hdb) set as primary slave.  The CDROM is set 
as the secondary master, with the CDRW set as secondary slave.

My intention is to run a tri-boot machine letting Slackware 8.1 and FreeBSD 4.6.2 
split the second drive.  

I also have V-Com's System Commander 7.05 software available.

I ran RedHat 5.x a few years ago, successfully sharing a single drive with windoze and 
using an older version of system commander.  

1. Should I change the harddrives so that C:\ is primary master and D:\ is secondary 
master?

2. Should I use the  System Commander software?

3. Should I install Slackware or FreeBSD first?  Does it matter?

This is a learning/re-learning experience, so I have no problem trying something and 
going back to scratch...any caveats, criticisms, or advice is appreciated.  

Thanks,


Mike

Yes.  The remote system does not know how you managed to make the
connection (DNS name, host name or IP address; remember that in the
end it makes the connection using the IP address via IP), but it
always attempts to resolve your client's hostname when you connect.

It doesn't necessarily matter, but keep in mind that FreeBSD needs a
primary partition.  Slack can go in a logical drive in an extended
partition.  Lilo or Grub can boot MS, FreeBSD and the Linux install.
Grub is available in the FreeBSD ports.  I don't remember if Slack uses
Grub or Lilo (these days my Linux distro is Gentoo).  Or, you can
install Grub in FreeBSD from ports.  I think it'll depend upon which one
you'll be more likely to be playing with most, as that's the one you'll
be most likely to reinstall, and therefore, might want to put the
bootloader on the other installation.

Both Linux and FreeBSD can boot from a secondary master, so that part
doesn't matter.  (And, they can boot the other O/S's from it.)

I think your understanding is probably wrong.  Regardless of what is 
supposed to be, different devices seem to behave differently.  It 
may be that the umass driver could get a little better at automatically 
detecting the quirks of individual devices (I think some work has been

individual quirks that need to be dealt with.

 Okay, well cvsup your ports collection again, you probably caught half
 of an update.

That was it. I deleted the dir, and did a fresh cvsup. That did the trick.

Thanks Kris!

 Subject: install questions
 
 I have an older machine, Pentium 233 MMX, 256MB SDRAM, 512 cache, (2) Western 
Digital 8.4 GB HDD, 24X CDROM, 2X CDRW.
 I am presently running it as a Win ME machine, with the (C:\) drive (hda) set as 
primary master and the (D:\) drive (hdb) set as primary slave.  The CDROM is set 
as the secondary master, with the CDRW set as secondary slave.
 
 My intention is to run a tri-boot machine letting Slackware 8.1 and FreeBSD 4.6.2 
split the second drive.  
 
 I also have V-Com's System Commander 7.05 software available.
 
 I ran RedHat 5.x a few years ago, successfully sharing a single drive with windoze 
and using an older version of system commander.  
 
 1. Should I change the harddrives so that C:\ is primary master and D:\ is secondary 
master?
 

Drive layout should be fine. Linux and BSD are fine on a secondary drive. 
In fact, I'm not sure 'secondary' has any meaning beyond positional 
outside DOS.

 2. Should I use the  System Commander software?
 

Some people use System Commander at work. It's nice software, but GRUB is 
nice also, possibly nicer. In any event just as powerful. You may want to 
check it out. 

 3. Should I install Slackware or FreeBSD first?  Does it matter?
 

If you've been using Slack for a while, install that first and (if you 
decide to check it out) install/configure GRUB from slack. If this is your 
first foray into BSD, you may end up breaking it once in a while.

LILO, as installed by Slack, will boot DOS and BSD and Slack just fine.

As someone else has stated, I believe BSD requires a primary partition 
although Slack works fine on an extended partition. 

Should be a piece of cake to dual-boot that second drive. Trickiest part 
for me (at first) was understanding how BSD slices up its partition.

My $0.02 :-)

nautilus sux

2002-09-17 Thread Peter Leftwich

I am trying to run Gnome 2.0 and before running startx I `setenv
WINDOW_MANAGER metacity` (tcsh).

It seems I keep getting layers and layers of desktops and the taskbar at
the bottom of the window gets obfuscated.  When startx is done, I can right
click and choose New Terminal but the usual borders of [_] and [X] and
[-] etc are missing, cropped away.  When I run top and kill nautilus
things come back.

Is nautilus part of Gnome 2.0 or part of metacity?!

Crashing Win98SR1 was easy enough using IE and Outlook but today I saved a
page as complete from Mozilla 5.0 and it crashed the X11 environment!!
Should I be proud?

Re: recovering ufs after fat games

  If I choose F4 I get nothing but a beep.  If I choose F3 it boots into windows.  
Any suggestions?

CDROM drive(s) suddenly gone

2002-09-17 Thread Weston M. Price

Hello,  
I recently built a new kernel to incorporate sound on my machine. Everything 
seemed to come off without a hitch, no problems whatsoever. I followed the 
handbook and added a line to my custom kernel. 

device pcm

I purposely left out options PNPBIOS just to make sure everything went all 
right to begin with

After this I made sure to check everything to make sure all my system 
functionality remained intactagain, there appeared to be no problems. 

This evening I went to mount one of my cdrom drives and the machine kept 
giving me a problem saying 

cd9660: /dev/acd0c : Invalid Argument

I checked /etc/fstab and the entry for both /cdrom and /cdrom1 remained the 
same as before, they are as follows:

/dev/acd0c  /cdrom  cd9660  ro,noauto   0   0
/dev/acd1c  /cdrom1 cd9660  ro,noauto   0   0

however, when I took a look a dmesg I found the following:

dmesg | egrep acd
acd0: CDROM LTN486S at ata1-master PIO4
acd1: CD-RW HL-DT-ST CD-RW GCE-8240B at ata1-slave PIO4

To tell the truth, really have no idea how this happened. Does anyone have any 
ideas, and more importantly, how do I get the cdrom(s) back? I am running 
FreeBSD 4.7-PRERELEASE. Thanks for anyhelp anyone can give me.

Problems with RELENG_4_6 'buildworld'

2002-09-17 Thread John Mills

Hello -

Today I decided to upgrade my RELENG_4_5 box to RELENG_4_6. No problem
with 'cvsup', but 'make buildworld' has crashed twice in exactly the same
spot, so I wondered if anyone might shed some light on what's happening.
(My machine has a history of crashes from overheating disk drives in the
type rebuild, but I wouldn't expect that to dump twice in exactly the same
place.) Here is the error message:

Re: Printer (lpt0) Device Busy (Epson Stylus Color 740)

2002-09-17 Thread Evan Dower

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. The problem with my printer... was that it was 
out of ink. I'm very sorry. As it turns out, and Epson Stylus Color 740 will 
continue to print after the ink low LED turns on, but only for a limited 
time. After a while, it will simply stop accepting jobs, and your computer 
will report a communication error of some kind. I know, it's one of the 
first things I should have checked for, and I apologize. On the bright side, 
though, it does work now (on both the parallel and USB ports), and I even 
got my USB camera working... sort of. It starts out fine. It gets detected 
and mounts fine. but when I umount it, the camera's display does not change 
from USB to REMOVE OK. Also, if I unplug it and then plug it in a second 
time, it doesn't work. Any clues? Any idea where I should look?
Thanks again,
Evan Dower

number of snoop devices

2002-09-17 Thread Tien Duc Nguyen

Hi all,

On a stock FreeBSD 4.6 Release install, after recompiling the kernel with 25
snoop devices, I'm stuck with at most 10 watch-ed snoop devices. At first,
/dev/MAKEDEV snp10 doesn't work, so I've created the 11th snoop device by
hand with 'mknod snp10 c 53 `unit2minor 10`' but watch complains about
attaching to the 11th tty (ttypa). Therefore, I was wondering if there's a
limit in the number of snoop devices watch can monitor (having seen anyone
using 3-5 devices), or am I doing something wrong here?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Tien Duc
