postfix problem in jail

2002-10-18 Thread Axel Gruner
Hi.

So, i have a running jail and installed postfix from the ports in there.
My problem is, that postfix wont start in the jail. /var/log/maillog
shows:

ct 18 09:20:08 briefzentrum postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix
mail system Oct 18 09:20:08 briefzentrum postfix/master[481]: fatal:
parameter inet_interfaces: no local interface found for 127.0.0.1

So, what is the problem with that? 
How to setup a local interface for 127.0.0.1 in a jail, so that postfix
should start at boottime? 

Thanks in advance.

There is no local interface, 127.0.0.1 inside a jail, only the IP
address that the jail has been given.

You need to tell postfix to startup on the same IP address that the jail
has been given. Do this either by setting:
myhostname = yourmachine

and putting yourmachine into /etc/hosts with the correct IP, or
by setting:
inet_interfaces = youripaddress

Both changes can be done in the postfix main.cf config file. Obviously
replace yourmachine and youripaddress to their correct values.

apache install problems w/expat

2002-10-18 Thread Bsd Neophyte

i have problems installing apache.

i'm getting the following errors eventhough i have expat-1.95.4 installed.

--
===  Installing for expat-1.95.4
===  expat-1.95.4 is already installed - perhaps an older version?
  If so, you may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install
  this port again by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
  If you really wish to overwrite the old port of expat-1.95.4
  without deleting it first, set the variable FORCE_PKG_REGISTER
  in your environment or the make install command line.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/textproc/expat2.
*** Error code 1
--

when i tried doing it again i get the following error:

Error: shared library expat.4 does not exist
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/www/apache2.


i've tried to uninstall expat and then reinstall it... i've also tried
running portupgrade on expat... but i'm still stuck.

as always, any and all help will be appreciated

Re: natd not allowing incoming ftp connections, but web is okay

CW redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.14:80 80

CW I  don't  understand  why the port 80 line works and the
CW port 20-21 line does not.

That  is because of the nature of the FTP protocol. FTP uses
two separate TCP connections: one for commands (port 21) and
another  one for data (port 20). What's going on when client
tries to establish the FTP session?

1. Client allocates two ports for himself (both above 1023)
2. It uses first port to connect to server's port 21
3. Using this established session client issues directive
PORT to server to tell the server port number for data
transfer.
4. Server initiates connection from its port 20 to client's
second opened port.

So  if  client  uses  active mode ftp you should not mention
port  20  in redirect port directive (data channel will be
aliased according to alias address directive):

redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.14:21 21

If client uses passive mode FTP then you probably should use
two directives:

redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.14:21 21
redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.14:49152-65535 49152-65535



CW Even  though  it  says  log,  there is no log file being
CW written  to,  all log items show on the local display, I
CW don't know why.

CW Any ideas what to check?
Is /var/log/alias.log exists and has correct permissions?
You may also try to log events via syslog using
log_facility directive.

Apache DOS, help needed

2002-10-18 Thread Martin Blapp

Hi,

I'm using apache 1.27 with recent modssl. I'm not vulnerable to this bug.

But I see from time to time large scans, which have the symptoms of this
worm.

All my FreeBSD childs get used and are waiting in a queue and the server gets
unresponsive for 5-6 mins.

I set correctly limits:

RLimitNPROC 25
RLimitMEM 4000
RLimitCPU 5

But in this case, RLimitNPROC seems not to work :P

I also tried mod_throttle, but it does also not help in this case because
all connections are made at the same time and they timeout 180 seconds later.

How did you rebuilt sendmail? By issuing `make install` in

plaintext, commented, quite easily understandable file?

If you skimmed it you would have realized adding the 'restart'

Well I just installed FreeBSD release 4.5 through ftp. The problem is
that /statd/sysinstall did not find the packages I requested on the ftp
sites (i tried several sites that the installer listed). So now I have
FreeBSD with XF386 (but no KDE), man pages, info files and several
other stuff, but not a single package installed (pkg_info -a tells me
that). So whats wrong? Does the site have a problem?

problem with network cards in server, plz help!

2002-10-18 Thread David Loszewski
I have two different cards on my Netfinity 5000 server, a pci Netgear 
FA311 (showing up as a NatSemi (sis0), and the onboard network card 
which seems to have an AMD chipset (pcn0).   If I have the onboard 
ethernet card enabled at all and have an active cable connected to it 
and restart the computer it comes up on ukphy0, turns the pci error 
light on and I get no internet access which it later makes the computer 
reboot automatically without any warning.  If I disable that card and 
put in a PCI Netgear card, have also tried other cards such as Intel or 
IBM cards, once in a while it will boot normally but every once in a 
while it will get hung up on the ukphy0 as well, giving me the same 
problem as the onboard network and reboot itself.  At first I thought it 
was an IRQ problem but all of my devices now have individual IRQ's set 
in the bios and I'm still having this problem.  I'm afraid to reboot 
this thing because I'm afraid it won't be coming back up.  Below are 
from my dmesg, the first is when I have my onboard ethernet enabled and 
the second is when I have the netgear installed.  Any help would be much 
appreciated on what to do with this problem.   By the wayI'm running 
on FreeBSD 4.6.2 but also have this problem running 4.7, I it also 
usually hangs on the driver initialization during installation of the os.

Re: Apache DOS, help needed

2002-10-18 Thread Martin Blapp

Hi all,

In the meantime I've found some datapoints. This is a slapper DOS
attack, a linux work which has been modified to kill apaches or
to take them down.

All apaches (also 1.27) are vulnerable. It hammers the server till
all slots are filled, and then the apache server is not able to serve
any customers anymore until these requests timeout.

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=worm+apache+DOS+slapperhl=enlr=ie=UTF-8oe=UTF-8selm=3ebd7d0b.0210142024.75d362b6%40posting.google.comrnum=5

And this was proposed as fast fix:

# AWB - another attempt to keep apache from being DOS'd by slapper
ServerTokens ProductOnly
ServerSignature Off

Beside that DOS, I'm able to block apache with just a telnet and a perl
script.

I'd consider this as severe DOD vulnerability.

SIS 900 on board, FreeBSD 4.7

2002-10-18 Thread Alexander
Hello,

yesterday I've downloaded fbsd 4.7 iso and tried to boot on my laptop.
All was going well until the kernel started probing for my ethernet card
(which is SIS 900).
It recognized it as SIS 900 and it said MII without PHY! and rebooted.

I've looked around in the mailing list archive and found so far that this
was fixed in FBSD 4.5-STABLE !?

Please help me ! If you can give me a kernel patch or a fix to this
problem, I'll be glad to have it !

Disabling the NIC is not a solution.

P.S. I'm not subscribed for the mailing list so please include my email
when replying.

thanks

 Yes. I did a portupgrade -a on my workstation (Compaq Deskpro PIII 800

 packages. I just had to fix some inconsistencies with pkgdb -F 
 (return-return-return...) first, answer Accept when got to compile JDK 
 and everything got smooth.
 Those inconsistencies came becouse it was FBSD 4.5, upgraded to 4.6 and 
 to 4.6.2 and now to 4.7 and this was the first time I did portupgrade.

yep I did it last night, it went fine. About 4.5 hours to build 183 ports. 
I didn't rebuild the JDK but it works fine with Mozilla and that's all I 
need it for :)

portupgrade is quite cool, seems to work great.

make gdk-pixbuf fails; jpeg linking error

2002-10-18 Thread Zeno Lee
I have 4.7 RELEASE generic and gdk-pixbuf-0.20 fails to build because
libjpeg is doubly linked.  See message below.

I currently have gdk-pixbuf-0.17 and I'm trying to upgrade to 0.20 because a
few other gnome ports I want to install are depend on it.

Can anyone tell me why libjpeg becomes doubly linked?

Re: natd not allowing incoming ftp connections, but web is okay

2002-10-18 Thread chip . wiegand
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 10/18/2002 03:24:47 AM:
snip
 That  is because of the nature of the FTP protocol. FTP uses
 two separate TCP connections: one for commands (port 21) and
 another  one for data (port 20). What's going on when client
 tries to establish the FTP session?

I tried from my office using wsftp, twice, once in active mode
and once in passive mode, both result in the following error:

! Can't get ftp://66.114.152.128/; host entry
! Connection failed ftp://66.114.152.128/

snip
 So  if  client  uses  active mode ftp you should not mention
 port  20  in redirect port directive (data channel will be
 aliased according to alias address directive):

 redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.14:21 21

 If client uses passive mode FTP then you probably should use
 two directives:

 redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.14:21 21
 redirect_port tcp 192.168.1.14:49152-65535 49152-65535

Is it okay to have all 3 of the above redirect lines? I changed
my natd.conf line for ftp to the first line above, and also added
the other two lines. Is that a problem?

snip
 Is /var/log/alias.log exists and has correct permissions?

It did exist, has two lines, but no error lines, so then I set the
permissions to 755, it still didn't get written to, then I changed
it to 777, still not getting written to.

 You may also try to log events via syslog using
 log_facility directive.

Would that fill the syslog full of natd/firewall messages? Sometimes
there are tons of messages.

How did you upgrade your machine?  Did you download ALL system sources
and do a `make buildword - make buildkernel - make installkernel -
reboot - make installworld'?  I'm not sure if this is your problem, but
frequently when problems like this are aired on the list it turns out to
be a problem related to userland code being out of sync with the kernel
code.  Verify that all your sources are up to date.

RE: prc-tools-2.2 on FreeBSD-4.7 build errors

2002-10-18 Thread Chris Ptacek
This appears to be an issue with not having libintl available on FreeBSD.  I
havn't tried these suggestions yet, but I thought I would pass them along.
Is the libintl stuff available through a port?

   - Chris

Cut and Paste from another e-mail.

/usr/local/pilot/build/binutils/bfd/../../../prc-tools-2.2/binutils/bfd/dwar
 f2.c:1350: undefined reference to
  `dcgettext__'

Perhaps this could be added to BUILDING.html, but really I think it is
obvious.  Because it is a generic problem and not specific to prc-tools,
I would expect that you would get better answers on that FreeBSD mailing
list than here.

These *msg_cat* and *gettest* functions are all to do with
internationalisation and NLS.  So the quickest and nastiest way to
avoid this is to decide you don't care about NLS and configure with
--disable-nls.

I do not know why configure thinks that your machine provides libintl
but in fact it does not.  It seems to me that this likely implies a
faulty libintl installation on your machine.  Or perhaps there is a
problem with prc-tools's configuration scripts in this area.  Perhaps
someone on that FreeBSD mailing list can shed more light which you can
report to us if it is relevant.

Cut and Paste from another e-mail.
-
This problem appears on Mac OS X as well. Disabling NLS through the
autoconf script was always the way around this as you suggested.
Interesting though that two BSD systems have the same problem, do you
guys think this requires further investigation?

Try deinstalling the expat2 package/port with `pkg_deinstall' or
`pkg_delete'.  The run  `pkgdb -F' and fix any problems that may 
arise.  The go back to your apache build and try
again, letting the apache port install expat2 itself.  This may not
solve the underlying problem you are having with the apache port, but it
might get past the problem?

Best practice when building a -STABLE branch kernel

Is it a best practice to include debuging options in a -STABLE tree 
kernel?

http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2002/03/21/Big_Scary_Daemons.html?page=1

The kernel developer's handbook

does not offer an opinion

Is there some alternative thinking?

Re: Best practice when building a -STABLE branch kernel

2002-10-18 Thread Matt Smith
List, please correct me if I am wrong:

The business-as-usual practice would be to not run -Stable, but rather
run a -Release.  -Stable, although more stable than -Current, should not
be run in business-production, although my hunch is that many small
environments do.

If you are running -Stable, then chances are you have some technical
knowledge, and could contribute back to the project, in which case
including debugging options could be helpful.

Any other thoughts?

 Try deinstalling the expat2 package/port with `pkg_deinstall' or
 `pkg_delete'.  The run  `pkgdb -F' and fix any problems that may 
 arise.  The go back to your apache build and try
 again, letting the apache port install expat2 itself.  This may not

 might get past the problem?

i tried the pkg_delete as well as rebuilding the packages from the ports
and then doing a make deinstall (i don't know if they're the same thing or
different).  i never knew about the pkgdb, which seems to be a pretty
interesting feature.

however, i regret to report, i am getting the exact same problem. :/

RE: PPP

2002-10-18 Thread Brent Wiese

 Hi all,
 
 I have a question related to PPP. I have a FreeBSD -STABLE 
 box set up as a gateway to a dial up account with Internode.
 
 I have also 2 Windows boxes with the default gateway set to 
 the FreeBSD box.
 
 Question: Is there anyway to set up an Icon on a Windows box 
 that will dial up the
   modem that's hanging off of the FreeBSD gateway.
   [ssh'ing in and running ppp manually is to much of 
 an ask for people that want to use
a computer to actually do work ;-)].
 
   Has anyone done this before.

I'm going to venture a guess that you want a dial-on-demand setup.

Look at mpd (/usr/ports/net/mpd). Current version is 3.9. Should do what
you want.

Well, does library expat.4 actually exist?  If not, then what version
is the expat2 port installing?  Assuming that expat2 installs a newer
version of the library, you might be able to simply create a link named 
expat.4 and point it to the one expat installs.  Then requests for
expat.4 will simply point to the newer version, but this may only work
reliably if you are sure that the newer version of the library is 
backward compatible with the older one.

i don't know if this is the proper way to find it... but i did a find /

i'm assuming this library does not exist.  

as for the installation.  the port information about expat-2 reveals the

R-deps:


i found v.1.95.5 on the sourceforge site... but the ports will not get
this version... it will build expat-1.95.4.

what i did was pure experimentation, because i really don't know how this
all works.

however, i downloaded the latest build of expat and did a tar -xvf... what
i believe was /usr/ports/textproc/expat2/files/work (which was where i
found the source files) and then i tried doind a make  make install

however, this didn't resolve the problem either.

so where can i find the libraries if i am not looking in the proper
place... and how do i make the link... and what do i make the link to?

Re: Best practice when building a -STABLE branch kernel

2002-10-18 Thread Gary W. Swearingen
Matt Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 The business-as-usual practice would be to not run -Stable, but rather
 run a -Release.  -Stable, although more stable than -Current, should not
 be run in business-production, although my hunch is that many small
 environments do.

IMO, the best practice is to build your OS and thoroughly test it as you
will be using it before putting it into important use.  If you do this,
you might as well use -STABLE.  Otherwise, unless you really need
something in -STABLE, you should use -RELEASE except that you should
review security fixes, etc, and maybe upgrade using a cvs tag like
RELENG_4_7 which has only important fixes for -RELEASE-4.7.

 If you are running -Stable, then chances are you have some technical
 knowledge, and could contribute back to the project, in which case
 including debugging options could be helpful.

AFAIK, including the debugging options is not risky or performance-
harming (except maybe using more memory?).  But for most people, it
doesn't make much sense to use it unless you also prepare your OS to
save crash dumps.  Most will do all this only so they can help OS
development by giving decent reports about OS crashes.  I know of no
good reason not to do it for any OS version, except to avoid the setup
effort.  It doesn't take much technical knowledge that can't be learned
by reading the FAQ about kernel panics (and maybe a few manuals
starting with crash(8)).

Multiple FreeBSD SCSI Hosts

2002-10-18 Thread Mike Thompson
I'm interested in setting up two FreeBSD systems in a very simple 
clustering type configuration around centralized external SCSI storage 
devices for hardware redundancy.  The specific configuration I'm thinking 
about is shown in the simple diagram below:

 +---+ +--+ +---+
 |  FreeBSD  | |  | |  FreeBSD  |
 |  Host  1  | | External | |  Host  2  |
 | (primary) | |   SCSI   | |(secondary)|
 |   | |RAID/DRIVE| |   |
 | SCSI  r/w | |  | | SCSI  r/o |
 +-+-+ +---+--+---+ +-+-+
   |   |  |   |
   +---+  +---+

There would be two FreeBSD systems with the primary server mounting the 
external SCSI storage read-write and the secondary server mounting the 
external SCSI storage read-only.  Each server would have non-shared /, /usr 
and /var partitions on local drives.   In a fail over situation, I would 
manually power down the primary server and re-mount the SCSI storage 
read-write on the secondary server to continue operation.  My questions 
about this are as follows:

1. Do the FreeBSD SCSI drivers support such a configuration by implementing 
the SCSI RESERVE/RELEASE commands to lock access to the SCSI bus?  If so, 
which drivers for which specific SCSI adapters?

2. Many external raid controllers describe themselves as host dual 
capability.  Is the type of configuration they are describing?

3. Will the secondary server still experience a corrupted file system 
because of write caching by the primary server?  If so, would it be 
possible to configure the primary server to write through the cache?

4. Are there any FreeBSD specific projects or ports that would make such a 
dual host SCSI configuration easier to configure or maintain?

5. What am I overlooking in such a configuration?

6. Are there alternatives to this type of scenario that may work better for 
FreeBSD?

7. Finally, are there resources already on the web that would answer these 
questions for me?

I would be very much interested in hearing if other people have attempted 
such a configuration with FreeBSD servers and their experience.  Also, 
specific hardware recommendations would be helpful.

Thanks,

Re: devbuf state in top

In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], 
Chris Ptacek writes:
I had a process whose state under top was listed as devbuf.
This process seemed to be stuck and I was unable to kill it.
I ended up rebooting the box to reset it.

None of the man pages (TOP, PS) list the devbuf state.  
What is it and what was the process trying to do?  
I am guessing it had something to do with memory allocation.

It means that the kernel is trying to allocate memory with a type
code of M_DEVBUF, but the kernel limit for that type has been
reached. Hence the process is stuck waiting for something to free
M_DEVBUF memory for it to use. `vmstat -m' shows the current
amount of memory allocated by each malloc type.

As the name suggests M_DEVBUF is normally used for buffers in kernel
devices. Maybe you have created a very large number of devices or
configured a device in a way that requires a lot of memory (e.g set
a huge value for SC_HISTORY_SIZE), maybe there is a memory leak,
or possibly you just need to increase the value of MAXUSERS in the
kernel configuration file.

Missing vendor info for generic Realtek clone (FBSD4.6)

2002-10-18 Thread Kutulu
I recently inherited a very old Compaq Presario which I decided to put
FreeBSD on.  The network card is a generic 10/100 card (it's so generic the
company name isn't anywhere on the card OR in the manual), but searching
google on the model number turns up a Windows and Linux driver and some DOS
real-mode utilities.

The card turns out to be based on the RealTek RTL8139 chipset, so I added
the rl driver and the miibus device to my kernel and rebuilt.  pccardd,
however, tells me that the vendor information is (null)((null)).
`pccardc dumpcis` also shows absolutely nothing, just a terminator.  I've
used `pccardc pccardmem` to set the pccard base memory locations to 0xd,
0xd4000, 0xd8000, and 0xdc000, all produce the same results.  I also tried
forcing pccardc to activate the card using `pccardc enabler` and the IRQ,
I/O port, and base memory location I read off the card using the real mode
DOS utilties, but I get a device is not confugured error.

I'm pretty sure my issue is that I'm not pointing the pccard system to the
right memory location, but I am now out of ideas on how to do so.  I have
the source code to the Linux realtek driver and what appears to be a snippet
from a Redhat 7.0 pcmcia.conf file from this card's vendor, but I have
managed to avoid knowing anything about Linux thus far and want to stay that
way :)

What steps can I take to locate the correct pccard configuration to use this
card?

Thanks for your time,

custom kernel build fails at pxe.c

I've been a Linux user for years but I just installed FreeBSD for the

The only source code packages I installed were sbase, sincludes and 
ssys.  Apparently, I forgot something because I can't find these headers 
anywhere on the system.

I did some looking around in the ML archives to try to solve this, but 
I'm stumped.  I've gathered that I has to do with compiling for PXE 
boots, but I don't need that feature.  LINT doesn't have any options for 
disabling PXE, so it looks like I've got to find these headers.  Where 
are they?  Or is there some other way to disable PXE?

  On a side note, is this all the standard way of updating your base system?

yes; mount commands may or may not differ based on you fs layout.

 # make buildkernel KERNCONF=GRENZIK
 # make installkernel KERNCONF=GRENZIK

  Am I being blissfully ignorant? Is the WrongWay to do it?

seems like it; see /usr/src/UPDATING for the upgrade procedure.

I do a lot of the support for lpr/lpd in freebsd.  From a quick look

If you like a full IDE like Visual Studio, check out KDevelop. A slimmer 
but function-rich C/C++ editor is Code Crusader. I prefer Nedit. And yes, 
Make and makefiles are the way to go. There are many front-ends to the 
command line compilers (KDevelop and Code Crusader both provide compile 
buttons) but they all use the command line stuff behind the scenes.

All those editors and many more are in the ports collection. I used VS for 
a few years, I used Code Crusader for quite a while when I switched to 
*nix, and I now prefer Nedit as it's useful for many, many languages. vi 
and emacs are fine too, but I prefer a graphical editor. I use vi

Also, there's Visual Slickedit. It's not even nearly free, but many 
people use it at work in Windows, Linux and AIX and it's an excellent, 
full-blown IDE.

I still prefer Nedit, but I would have been remiss in my duties if I

You probably need to disable esound using the sound monitor applet.  Simply

problem with network cards in server, plz help

2002-10-18 Thread David Loszewski
I have two different cards on my Netfinity 5000 server, a pci Netgear 
FA311 (showing up as a NatSemi (sis0), and the onboard network card 
which seems to have an AMD chipset (pcn0).   If I have the onboard 
ethernet card enabled at all and have an active cable connected to it 
and restart the computer it comes up on ukphy0, turns the pci error 
light on and I get no internet access which it later makes the computer 
reboot automatically without any warning.  If I disable that card and 
put in a PCI Netgear card, have also tried other cards such as Intel or 
IBM cards, once in a while it will boot normally but every once in a 
while it will get hung up on the ukphy0 as well, giving me the same 
problem as the onboard network and reboot itself.  At first I thought it 
was an IRQ problem but all of my devices now have individual IRQ's set 
in the bios and I'm still having this problem.  I'm afraid to reboot 
this thing because I'm afraid it won't be coming back up.  Below are 
from my dmesg, the first is when I have my onboard ethernet enabled and 
the second is when I have the netgear installed.  Any help would be much 
appreciated on what to do with this problem.   By the wayI'm running 
on FreeBSD 4.6.2 but also have this problem running 4.7, I it also 
usually hangs on the driver initialization during installation of the os.

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===

Last update 3 September 1999

This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list.  If
you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender
thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your
message:

- You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate.
- You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read.
- You asked more than one unrelated question in one message.
- You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone.
- You sent out the same message more than once.
- You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions.

If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you
will get more than one copy of this message from different people.
Read on, and your next message will be more successful.

I:Introduction
II:   How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
III:  Should I ask -questions or -hackers?
IV:   How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions
V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions

I: Introduction
===

This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from
FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the
questions (the hackers).

   Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking
   into other people's computers.  The correct term for the latter
   activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out
   yet.  The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking
   security, and have nothing to do with it.

In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the
different viewpoints of the two groups.  The newcomers accused the
hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers
accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English,
and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.  Of
course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the
most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration.

In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration
and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions.  In the
following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that,
we'll look at how to answer one.

II:  How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
==

When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message
from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  In this message, amongst other things, it
told you how to unsubscribe.  Here's a typical message:

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!

  If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
  you can send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the following command
  in the body of your email message:

  unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Here's the general information for the list you've
  subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:

  FREEBSD-QUESTIONS   User questions
  This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD.  You should not
  send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the
  question to be pretty technical.

Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you
don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one
which you specified when you subscribed.

If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on
the list, this may mean one of two things:

  1.  You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed.  That's where
  keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy.  For
  example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Since then, I have changed it to
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]  If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from
  the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with
  which I joined.

  2.  You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to
  FreeBSD-questions.  If that's the case, you'll have to figure out
  which one it is and get your name taken off that one.  If you're
  not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the
  messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a
  clue there.

If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going
on, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and he will sort things
out for you.  Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't
help you.

III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers?

Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD,
FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers.  In addition, the
FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people 

The Complete FreeBSD, third edition: errata and addenda

2002-10-18 Thread Greg Lehey








  Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition




 Last revision: 2 August 1999

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation.   The  result  is  that  most  leading  edge
computer  books are out of date almost before they are printed.  Unfortunately,
``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut  Creek,  is  no  exception.   In-
evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced.

The  following  is  a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos.  They
relate to the third edition, formatted  on  17  May  1999.   You'll  find  this
information  on  page  iv  (the  page  before  the  beginning  of  the Table of
Contents).  See the end of this document for instructions on how  to  find  the
errata for an older version.

You can get the current document in four forms:

o A PostScript version, suitable for printingout,at
  ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third  edition
  to  find  out  how  to print out PostScript.  If at all possible, please take
  this document: it's closest to the original text.

  Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible  to
  reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version.

o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When
  viewed with more or less,  this  version  will  show  some  highlighting  and
  underlining.  It's not suitable for direct viewing.

o An  ASCII-only  version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This
  version is posted every week to the  FreeBSD-questions  mailing  list.   Only
  take  this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure
  that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.

o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html.

All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing  source  text  of  the
book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well.  If you find a

bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Page ii
___

The instructions on page ii (opposite the title  page)  tell  you  to  look  at
ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2  for  the  errata  list.   That's wrong.
Look at this list.

Pages 190 and 191
_

The description is not very clear about which text appears  when  booting  from
floppy  for  initial  install,  and  which  appears when booting normally.  The
procedure is very similar, but there are some differences.  Add  the  following
text after the heading Boot messages:

You'll  boot  your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot
from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system.  Later, after the  system
is  installed,  you'll boot from hard disk.  The procedure is almost identical,
so we'll look at both versions in the following examples.

Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with:

If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see:

Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter:

When you insert the MFS root floppy and press  Enter,  you  see  more  twirling
batons, then the UserConfig screen appears.

UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration


After  the  kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are
installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c  option  to  the
boot loader:

Page 206


The  bottom  two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating
that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file

nfs_client_enable=YES   # This host is an NFS client (or NO).
nfs_server_enable=YES   # This host is an NFS server (or NO).


Page 265


The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver.   The
scsi  program  is  no  longer  available  in  FreeBSD  3.x.   Instead,  use the
camcontrol program.  Replace the text with:.

Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by  allocating  an
alternate sector for the data.  IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI
drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation.   Usually  it
is  turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not.  When installing a
new disk, you should check that the parameters  ARRE  (Auto  Read  Reallocation
Enable)  and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on.  For example,
to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter:

# camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3
# scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3

This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one  specified  in

Dear Redmond,

My favorite firewall is ipfilter. Mainly because it doesn't run in
userland like ipfw does. This makes it a bit faster because it doesn't
have the overhead a normal userland program has. I beleave it also has
a bit more options for a normal firewall but no extra's like ipfw
does. The later reason is way i also run ipfw. I use it for the
traffic shaping and traffic policy only.

Trying to write a crash dump - Trying to debug a kernel panic

2002-10-18 Thread Joe Sotham
I am trying to debug a boot time kernel panic.  This is completely new 
territory for me and I need some help. I'm taking this one step at a 
time, the first step is to get a crash dump.

This is a repeateable panic which occurs when I boot from my windows 
partition to my FreeBSD partition.  Once the panic occurs, booting 
again clears the problem. 

Following the documentation in 
-http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html

has gotten me so far, but I am stuck.  I can trap and get dumped into 
the debugger (I think it's the debugger, the prompt is db).  However 
I am trying to  get a core dump written and that's where I am having no 
success.

1) I've added the kernel debugging options
 -- 
 options  DDB #Debug Support
 makeoptions DEBUG=-g
 options  KTRACE
 

2) made and installed the kernel,

3) added the following params to the rc.conf file
--
dumpdir=/var/crash
dumpdev=/dev/ad0s2b
-
where dumpdev corresponds to the swap device
the fstab entry corresponds below.
   
/dev/ad0s2b none  swapsw0   0
   

4)  executed the command  dumpon -v /dev/ad0s2b
5) rebooted to wwindows
6) rebooted to freeBSD - panic - db prompt

7) At this point I examined a few commands, (e.g. trace, show reg)
and finished with the panic command which according to the
documentation at

  http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/  \
  books/developers-handbook/x9854.html
  
   This will cause your kernel to dump core and reboot, 
so you can later analyze the core on a higher level with gdb. 

8)  At which the system rebooted and came up, but with no core file

learning about ./configure and pkg-config

2002-10-18 Thread Peter Leftwich
I downloaded the following from gnome.org bonobo-activation-1.0.3.tgz and
gunzipped then untarred it and changed to the resulting directory.

When I ran `./configure` it got through most checks fine, except for the
pkg-config ones near the end.  Here is the output:

... checking for pkg-config... /usr/local/bin/pkg-config
checking forgmodule-2.0 = 2.0.1ORBit-2.0 = 2.4.0  linc = 0.5.1...
 Requested 'ORBit-2.0 = 2.4.0' but version of ORBit-2.0 is 2.3.109
configure: error: Library requirements ( gmodule-2.0 = 2.0.1 ORBit-2.0 =
2.4.0 linc = 0.5.1) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH
environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so
pkg-config can find them.

Once this happened, I went searching simply for a download of the latest
gmodule file but couldn't find anything pertinent!  Since the error above
said to consider adjusting PKG_CONFIG_PATH (currently not set), I read the
manpage for pkg-config:

pkg-config retrieves information about packages from special metadata
files. These files are named after the package, with the extension .pc. By
default, pkg-config looks in the directory prefix/lib/pkgconfig for these
files;  it will also look in the colon-separated (on Windows, semicolon-
separated) list of directories specified by the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment
variable.

I couldn't find my /lib/pkgconfig directory or locate sample
PKG_CONFIG_PATH statements on the web.  Can someone clue me in please?

ABIT KX7-333R problems: RAID NIC problems

2002-10-18 Thread Simon1

I'm having some problems with a RAID setup and the network on a new system. 
I haven't found anyone mentioning the problems in the searching I've done 
(Google, FreeBSD Website, mailing lists). Hopefully someone can get me 
pointed in the right direction or tell me what I'm missing (or fix a bug if 
that is the case).

Summary of Problems:
	Intel network cards (identical models -- see below) refuse to work on the 
network. They will not pull DHCP, and if manually configured, will not talk 
to anything on the network. All systems are connected via a hub. DHCP is 
run off of a FreeBSD system. The HUB and the cards do show a link light.
	
	When I create a mirrored array (2x 60GB 7200 RPM Seagates), each drive is 
set as master on its own IDE channel without anything else attached to the 
controller.  When creating files, even very large ones, on the local system 
I get good throughput -- On the order of 20MB/sec. When I FTP a file from 
the other FreeBSD server down onto the mirrored array, the transfer will 
only go at about 100k/sec. (Additional debugging/testing I've performed below).




Information:

FreeBSD Version: Generic install off of the FreeBSD 4.6 cds for the testing 
below. Identical problems were noted after cvsup'ing to 4.7  remaking the 
world.

Hardware Setup:

Motherboard:	ABIT KX7-333 w/RAID  (Flashed the board with its latest BIOS 
update, problems remain)
		VIA KT333  VT8233A chipsets
		HighPoint HPT 372 RAID controller (UDMA/133 on board)

CPU:		Athlon 1600XP+

Drives:		2x 60GB 7200 RPM Seagate IDE drives. (All are running as UDMA 100)







Drive Setup:	Tried with the following configurations:
1) Directly to the mainboard IDE port, single drive, set as master.
		2) Mirrored array, both disks, hooked onto the RAID controller. (Each set 
as a master on their individual channel)	
		3) Non RAID setup, using a disk connected to the RAID controller.


Network Cards:
		I've tried a total of 4 cards:
		2 x Intel 10BT/100BTX PILA8460B PRO/100+ PCI (fxp)
		1 x Phoebe (rl)
		1 x CNET (dc)



NETWORK PROBLEM:

	I've tried at least 4 cables, all of which work on other systems. One 
specific cable was used for all of the below tests. The cards have all been 
tried in all PCI slots except slot 5, which the boards manual suggests not 
using because it /may/ have IRQ steering problems with the raid controller. 
To test the card I attempt to get dhcp configuration (dhclient 
interface), then I try and FTP a 180MB test file from another server (the 
DHCP server in this case).

The three cards:
	Intel (fxp):
		I have two identical models here. Neither cards will pick up DHCP. If I 
manually set the IP addresses, they will still not talk to anything on the 
network. The link lights do light up on both the hub and the nic.

	RealTek (rl):
		The card gets DHCP info wonderfully, and will transfer files at about 
6MB/sec. No errors, warning, etc.

	CNET (dc):
		Card also has no problems getting on the network. When I do the transfer, 
some problems can occur. I get TX underrun -- Increasing TX threshold 
repeatedly. Then,  every 8 or 9 reboots, it will stall and give a broken 
pipe error. You then have to reboot to make the link work again. While it 
runs, it pulls at about 7MB/sec. In searching, I've seen a number of people 
with that error message with the dc driver, but because it normally (9 
times out of 10) will continue to work, it doesn't feel like a NIC or NIC 
driver problem to me.

	Disabling the onboard RAID controller (in the BIOS) didn't have any effect 
on the problems whatsoever.


RAID Problems:

	The problems occur with dc0 *and* rl0 network cards when FTPing the 180MB 
test file. The RAID -and- single drive setups work like a charm for 
everything local (and will install at the max speed the CDROM can handle -- 
regardless of configuration).

	Setup #1) Using the Raid IDE as general (non RAIDed) setup --
		I'm able to install FreeBSD onto it and boot without a problem. Installs 
 reads at drives speed (20+ MB/sec). Doing the FTP download the download 
will go at maximum speed the remote system  network cards can handle.

	Setup #2) Using RAID with Mirroring option -- Each drive set as master of 
its IDE channel. Nothing else connected to it.
		I'm able to install FreeBSD onto it and boot without a problem. Installs 
 reads at drives speed (20+ MB/sec). Doing the FTP download the download 
will only go about 100k/sec (UPLOADING that file to another system will go 
at full speed, just the download is severely limited). Both network cards 
go this speed. Identical CABLE  NIC setups as the other configurations..

	Setup #3) Using the regular IDE channel on the motherboard  --
		I'm able to install FreeBSD onto it and boot without a problem. Installs 
 reads at drives speed (20+ MB/sec). Doing the FTP download the download 
will go at maximum speed the remote system  network cards can handle.


My goals are to get the Intel NICs to work, and get RAID to act properly 
(ie: full speed). I've 

question: sending to stdout AND file

How do I redirect output to a file *and* stdout simultaneously.  My

Re: Multiple FreeBSD SCSI Hosts

2002-10-18 Thread Dan Nelson
In the last episode (Oct 18), Mike Thompson said:
 I'm interested in setting up two FreeBSD systems in a very simple
 clustering type configuration around centralized external SCSI
 storage devices for hardware redundancy.  The specific configuration
 I'm thinking about is shown in the simple diagram below:
 
  +---+ +--+ +---+
  |  FreeBSD  | |  | |  FreeBSD  |
  |  Host  1  | | External | |  Host  2  |
  | (primary) | |   SCSI   | |(secondary)|
  |   | |RAID/DRIVE| |   |
  | SCSI  r/w | |  | | SCSI  r/o |
  +-+-+ +---+--+---+ +-+-+
|   |  |   |
+---+  +---+

Whoa.  Deja vu here.

http://groups.google.com/groups?threadm=Pine.LNX.4.44.0210101808560.3631-10;scribble.fsn.hu

Your primary problem is that the disk cache on Host2 does not know
about changes made to the filesystem by Host1.
 
 1. Do the FreeBSD SCSI drivers support such a configuration by
 implementing the SCSI RESERVE/RELEASE commands to lock access to the
 SCSI bus?  If so, which drivers for which specific SCSI adapters?

Reserve/release looks like it is implemented for tape devices on
open(), but not for disks (since it's legal to mount slice 1 on machine
A but slice 2 on machine B, for example).  Reserve/release is probably
not useful in this situation anyway, as I don't know how easy it is to
break a reservation (when host1 goes down, host2 has to break the
reservation before it can acces the disk).
 
 2. Many external raid controllers describe themselves as host dual
 capability.  Is the type of configuration they are describing?

Possibly.  Most of the time it's to allow multiple hosts to access
their own private storage, but you can usually force a volume to be
visible on multiple ports.
 
 3. Will the secondary server still experience a corrupted file system
 because of write caching by the primary server?  If so, would it be
 possible to configure the primary server to write through the cache?

Big time.  The problem is not so much write caching on the primary,
it's read caching on the secondary.  Without a shared-storage
filesystem, you're pretty much limited to NFS mounts (which are not all
that bad).

As for failover detection, one good way is to dedicate a small
partition (da0s1a, for example) as a heartbeat partition.  Host 1
writes a timestamp to /dev/da0s1a block 1 every second, Host 2 does the
same thing on block 2.  Each host then reads the other host's block,
and if there are no updates for (say) 10 seconds, you can assume that
the other host is dead, do a fsck, and mount the volume.  Using the raw
disk device bypasses any caches on the systems.

 I'm still seeing that the cards are not working properly, I haven't tried
 the RAID yet on the new board. Setting the speed down to 10Mb seems to
 greatly help the Intel card out (as in, it actually works). But, any faster
 than that... I went ahead and made two new cables, it'll light up the link
 at 100Mbit, but transfers on this card max out at 100k/sec down, and more
 like 1 or 2 k/sec upload.

 The only difference I can see between this board and the past ones that
 have worked flawlessly is the VIA KT333 chipset. Does FreeBSD have any
 known problems with this chipset?
