Ports system broken
Hi, I've managed to completely screw up my ports collection, to the extent that I can't install anything now (don't want to get into how I achieved this, too painful/embarassing :-)) So, what I would like to know is: can I get my system back to a state as if it had never had any ports installed on it at all, so I can then put a fresh copy of the ports tree on it and start over again? I'm thinking the procedure may go something like - remove /usr/local - make installworld to replace anything in /usr/local that wasn't put there by ports - remove /usr/X11R6 (since X is part of the ports?) - remove the package database under /var/db Does this sound like it may work, or have I overlooked some glaringly obvious flaw in my plan? It would be really good to find a solution other than a complete reinstall, as the base system (cvsup'd to 4.7 a couple of days ago) is working really well...

Because of NAT?
Hi. My network is like this: Name: Cisco 677i-DIR (ADSL-router/modem) IP: 217.13.29.51 | v Name: Ninja (FreeBSD) IP: 192.168.187.1 | v Name: Aegis (FreeBSD) IP: 192.168.187.2 The Cisco router runs CBOS and apparently NAT. I have forwarded these ports to Ninja. The address 10.0.0.2 (somehow it has to be that address) goes to Ninja's lnc0. set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 22 0.0.0.0 22 tcp set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 25 0.0.0.0 25 tcp set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 80 0.0.0.0 80 tcp set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 53 0.0.0.0 53 tcp set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 113 0.0.0.0 113 tcp set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 1024-5000 0.0.0.0 1024-5000 tcp set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 31337 0.0.0.0 31337 tcp This should cover most things, shouldn't it? However I'm concerned the use of NAT on my router and boxes has stirred shit up. For instance, I can only connect to my OpenFTPD (on 31337) site locally. Connecting remotely gives me: lftp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ ls Connecting to ninja.terrabionic.com (217.13.29.51) port 31337 Socket error (Connection timed out) - reconnecting Also I've been hearing people not getting ident requests from me. This can not be a BIND issue can it? I find it odd why my hostname sometimes doesn't resolve on EFNet, but on all the other networks I'm on. NAT, it seems, has really made networking a lot harder for me than what I deserve. I hope somebody understands my situation and are able to give useful replies.

Recently, the server crashed and I have to connect this DE-220 NIC to another server with Intel 82559 NIC using the same cross over cable. After that, the transfer is terrible.

I just wanted to add that the safest way to get the source tree version as an exact copy of the X.Y-RELEASE tree you can always use the RELENG_X_Y_0_RELEASE tag in your supfiles. For this instance, the tree of 4.7-RELEASE can be downloaded by using the tag: RELENG_4_7_0_RELEASE The kernel that goes to the release CD-ROMs has been tested and verified to be working, and you will find that it's certainly worth the time to do a buildworld/buildkernel cycle with the proper release tag. Then, you can cvsup and build later -STABLE versions, but you will at least have a nice and working kernel and userland from a well-known and working version of the sources. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] FreeBSD: The Power to Serve FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #12: Thu Oct 10 21:08:38 EEST 2002 msg04936/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

c.scott seem to be the case anymore. Is this a new feature or a bug?
Doing up gif device automatically was a bug, and it was corrected.
/etc/rc.network was changed to do up gif tunnel during setup. Please

If you know the inode number (which I seem to recall you do, from the

the same sort of options as FreeBSD's find, you might try this:
# find . -inum inode -ok rm -f {} \;

two years, so don't remember the niceties of any of its tools.

Arrgh. Disk managers (a/k/a disk manglers for good reason) tend to really screw things up IMO. Do I assume correctly that there is no updated BIOS available that would see all of ad2? i boot linux via windows' config.sys and loadlin.exe without problems. i tried to do the same with fbsdboot.exe with freebsd, but that doesnt seem to work, You're correct. That won't work. so i now use a floppy with the uniload boot loader from http://www.simon.org.ua/uniload/ to boot freebsd. each time freebsd has run, the freebsd slice ad0s3 is set active, but freebsd won't boot from it: Error loading OS. 1. can i change that so that the freebsd slice is fully bootable? maybe by installing grub to that slice? i would prefer that solution since i could then use grub also to be able to boot the other OS's. 2. is there a way to boot freebsd from DOS, how exactly would i use fbsdboot.exe? regards, wolfgang The FreeBSD boot loader (booteasy) will allow you to boot FreeBSD, Win98, and Linux. If you'd like to use it, just install it on both hard drives, using a FreeBSD boot floppy or CD-ROM to boot into FreeBSD, then install booteasy from the /stand/sysinstall menu or boot0cfg. Or you can install grub if that's your preference - it should work nicely to boot all 3 OSs. Read the grub documentation *carefully* to see how to set up your system to do this. To summarize: You can install the FreeBSD boot loader, or grub from FreeBSD or Linux, to do what you want. The only methods that *won't* work are the Win98 and DOS-based methods you've tried or asked about. Proviso: If neither booteasy nor grub works, it could be a problem caused by the disk mangler.

CheckUPS software for FreeBSD?
Would appreciate knowing if someone's managed to port Best Power's CheckUPS II Advanced Client to FreeBSD yet. Currently, Powerware only provide ports for their CheckUPS II Advanced suite to run on other Unix/BSD OS's. I searched www.FreeBSD.org/Ports with no luck. A search of the mailing list archives proved more fruitful though - it seems there were attempts to port the client but the correspondense was meager and quite dated so I gather the Client hasn't been ported successfully yet. My primary servers (NT machines) are all powered by the same SOLA UPS and have been served well by the CheckUPS Advanced Suite (for WinNT/2000). One server, connected directly to the UPS' serial port, runs the CheckUPS server, whilst the others run CheckUPS client which communicate with the CheckUPS server via the network. Just lately I've decided to add a test FreeBSD server (which I'm hoping will become permanent) hence the need to port the CheckUPS client. I know FreeBSD has ports like NUT - Network Ups Tools (/usr/ports/sysutils/nut) which has also been ported to NT, but (as mentioned earlier) our servers are currently working OK with the CheckUPS Advanced suite, so I 'dont want to fix them !' :^) Powerware were kind enough to e-mail me the source code for the suite (v3.25) and I tried to compile the Client from that (source files; checkups.c and upsterm.c). Doing so resulted in several errors, a sample of which is shown below; checkups.c:2207: storage size of `ttyctl' isn't known checkups.c:2288: `TCSETA' undeclared (first use in this function) checkups.c:2288: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once checkups.c:2288: for each function it appears in.) upsterm.c:223: invalid use of undefined type `struct termio' upsterm.c:242: `TCSETA' undeclared (first use in this function) upsterm.c:324: `TCGETA' undeclared (first use in this function) upsterm.c:330: `ttynew' has an incomplete type upsterm.c:52: storage size of `ttyctl' isn't known This leaves me with 2 options now; 1. Edit the source code. I'm new (but fascinated) with C and a newcomer to the FreeBSD environment as well but I'm willing have crack at it! So any clues as to why I'm getting these errors would be much appreciated. eg: Are TCSETA and TCGETA I/O calls? If so, what are the FreeBSD equivalents? Where can I find info on these FreeBSD specific details @ FreeBSD.org ? etc. 2. Wait for some kind soul ;^) to send me a port that works.

Now, upon booting, I am told THE FOLLOWING FILE SYSTEM HAD AN UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY /dev/ad1s1e (/mnt) After that, I hit enter to load the shell from /bin/sh. At that point, I don't even get a log-on prompt. I can ls the directories and move around to some extent, but I can't figure out how to edit /etc/fstab to remove the line that I shouldn't have put in. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: swap_pager: out of swap space

Our proxy server has a 1G of mem and 128MB swap space. What are the common cause of the problem ? Do you think it is related to a smaller swap space allocated ? Thank you for your time.

Re: how do I ftp a large file ?
Thus spake Firsto Lasto ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Ok, well I guess a: I'll make a conscious effort to arbitrarily limit functionality just because I don't need it is one way to approach things. Far from being arbitrary, I think you'll find that it has a lot to do with data type sizes in the language the server was written in.

Re: how do I ftp a large file ?
In the last episode (Oct 13), Firsto Lasto said: Ok, well I guess a: I'll make a conscious effort to arbitrarily limit functionality just because I don't need it is one way to approach things. the wrong way, of course:) We ftp files up to 10gb between OSes here with no problems at all. Chances are you have an old FTP binary on your Linux box that was not explicitly compiled to accept files over 2gb. Linux defaults to using a 32-bit interface unless told otherwise. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Linking applications to /usr/local/bin/
Why does linking an application such as java/javac to the /usr/local/bin/ directory make the java and javac commands global? Whereas 'kmail' is not in there, but if I type it Kmail will launch anyways. Anything specific I should read? ~ Matthew To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: Linking applications to /usr/local/bin/
Matthew, Why does linking an application such as java/javac to the /usr/local/bin/ directory make the java and javac commands global? Whereas 'kmail' is not in there, but if I type it Kmail will launch anyways. Do a which kmail. You probably need to read about how FreeBSD (and Linux and DOS for that matter) work out where commands should be looked for if you just type commmand_foo. Look for discussions about PATH and the PATH variables.

I still consider myself a newbie. Till now, I was very happy with my FreeBSD box. I began using it at 4.5-Release and updated several times without any problems. I do follow stable, but suddenly, without no apparent reason I stopped receiving the messages at 30 september. You can see what they changed at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/kern/vfs_subr.c.diff?r1= 1.249.2.28r2=1.249.2.29f=h It is pretty simple and gives you the full path into your local /usr/src/ directory. If you only change the line with the problem, you can rebuild and install your kernel. Technically, if you recvsup, you are supposed to rebuild everything. As to your subscription, send which to the majordomo. It will tell you if you are still subscribed. If you aren't currently subscribed, you need to re-subscribe. There were a number of people that were causing email bounces because of problems with their mail-boxes. Their subscriptions get deleted fairly quickly when this happens.

I saw the patch and applied it, then rebuilt the kernel. But now I received an error 1 in the same file and the kernel did not build. I'm now cvsupping again and will rebuild world. If anything again goes wrong, I will go and cvsup for RELENG_4_7_0_RELEASE, as Keramidas suggested to another user. Thanks for the help once again.
