java 1.3.1 and dual cpu
Hi Will Java make user of multiple CPU's on FreeBSD if there is only one Java process? That is, can there be some threads in the JVM running on one CPU and some other threads running on the other CPU in order to make user of the full capactity of a dual pentium 3 system? I'm running FreeBSD 4.6 and Java 1.3.1 compiled from the ports collection. I'm running the Tomcat Servlet container on Java primarily.

Re: FreeBSD Easy Server
I'm aware there is an instant-server port but I'm not really convinced! Why not? 'cos I need more ! Like a qmail mail server and stuff. So if I have to configure a mail server, I think I can do the other things as well! The main problem is the firewall rules!

Secure tunneling of remote-access Windows sessions?
I want to setup VNC on some Windows machines so I can access them over the internet, but I need to secure the connection in a way that will work with NAT'ing firewalls on both ends of the connection. How can I do this? I was thinking of setting up a tunnel between the two firewalls. On the local end, the tunnel starts at a given port on the firewall, which is connected to a port on the remote firewall that forwards to the VNC port on the remote machine. How would I go about doing this? Is there a better option? To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

initializing SCSI drive ST15150W
Hi, I am having a problem getting two seagate (compaq) ST15150W initialized at boot. dmesg gives me the bellow message for the SCSI card and drive (I am trying one at a time not to confuse matters). In this case I have set the drive as bootable in the SCSI BIOS. I have also tried it as not bootable. I have tried another drive that has the device ID 0, in this case it is device 2. All attemps have lead to nothing more then the below. With the device set as not bootable the SCAN AT BOOT message includes the target 2. The drive and card do work, I have tested them on a W2K system without any problems other then being on a W2K system.

Confused about bash profiles and environment settings.
According to the man, bash loads up for an interactive shell: /etc/profile ~/.bash_profile ~/.bash_login ~/.profile Env gives me this as my path: PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin: /usr/X11R6/bin:/home/kaeru/bin This is in ~/.profile (~/.bash_profile doesn't have it) and ~/.bash_login is empty. However if I change ~/.profile and add some other paths to it, the new paths are not exported to my profile. So bash is getting it's path settings from somewhere else. /etc/profile is commented out. Where else is it getting my path settings from (login.conf?). I tried changing PATH in that and it doesn't affect anything. However if I cut and paste this path and put it into ~/.bash_profile certain commands don't work, and my addition of /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/bin finds java, but java fails to run (complaining about missing libs). On the other hand root which is using csh, if I edit .cshrc and add the java path in, everything works just as expected. I'm confused :( Anything to enlighten me would be much appreciated.

If you modify /etc/login.conf, you will have to run cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf (as noted at the top of that file) before the changes will come into force. /etc/login.conf is the ultimate place where such settings may be configured. You can override the settings from there just for your own account by modifying ~/.login_conf, or you can override the settings for a particular shell by modifying the appropriate rc files. You can change settings in .xinitrc (startx) or .xsession (xdm) so they will only take effect under X windows. In any case, you're going to have to log out and log back in again before your session will reflect the changes you've made.

You can use ~/.bashrc if you want the 'every new shell' behaviour under bash, and ~/.login for the 'once per login session' behaviour under csh.

koffice-kde3 build problem
Hi, I having a problem building koffice via the kde3 metaport. KDE3 itself (seems to) be working fine. I cvsup'ed from 4.6-Stable to 4.7-Stable last night, including ports. I followed the instructions on freebsd.kde.org to remove kde2/qt/koffice. I also ran portsdb -Uu before trying to update any ports. I probably missed something, but can't see it. Can anyone shed some light? Here is what is in /var/db/pkg: # ls /var/db/pkg | grep kde kdebase-3.0.5 kdegames-3.0.4 kdelibs-3.0.5 kdeutils-3.0.4_1 # # #ls /var/db/pkg | grep qt qt-3.0.5_5 In /usr/ports/x11/kde3, make ran OK. make install results in the following error: ow.cc || echo './'`koMainWindow.cc In file included from /usr/include/string.h:50, from /usr/X11R6/include/qcstring.h:46, from /usr/X11R6/include/qstring.h:43, from /usr/X11R6/include/qkeysequence.h:44, from /usr/local/include/kaction.h:29, from /usr/local/include/kparts/mainwindow.h:24, from koMainWindow.h:23, from koMainWindow.cc:20: /usr/include/sys/cdefs.h:273: warning: `_POSIX_C_SOURCE' is not defined /usr/include/sys/cdefs.h:279: warning: `_POSIX_C_SOURCE' is not defined koMainWindow.cc: In method `void KoMainWindow::slotActivePartChanged(KParts::Part *)': koMainWindow.cc:1138: no matching function for call to `KParts::Plugin::loadPlugins (KoMainWindow *, KoMainWindow *, KInstance *, bool)' /usr/local/include/kparts/plugin.h:81: candidates are: static void KParts::Plugin::loadPlugins(QObject *, const KInstance *) /usr/local/include/kparts/plugin.h:87: static void KParts::Plugin::loadPlugins(QObject *, const QValueListKParts::Plugin::PluginInfo ) /usr/local/include/kparts/plugin.h:93: static void KParts::Plugin::loadPlugins(QObject *, const QValueListKParts::Plugin::PluginInfo , const KInstance *) gmake[4]: *** [koMainWindow.lo] Error 1 gmake[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/editors/koffice-kde3/work/koffice-1.2/lib/kofficecore' gmake[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/editors/koffice-kde3/work/koffice-1.2/lib/kofficecore' gmake[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/editors/koffice-kde3/work/koffice-1.2/lib' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/editors/koffice-kde3/work/koffice-1.2' gmake: *** [all] Error 2 *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/ports/editors/koffice-kde3. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/kde3. # Thanks, MikeC To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

sound vchans and gaim sound conflict
Sometimes when I use Gaim and I get too many sounds going at once my sound card gets confused and starts a loud buzzing that can only be stopped by a reboot. This seems to happen when two people IM me at the same time. I turned off the sound in Gaim for all but incoming messages but I still have that problem on occasion. Having to reboot for this is pretty lame. My sysctl.conf is set to: hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4 Xmms uses dev/dsp0.3 and Gaim uses /drv/dsp0.1 Here's my audio card: pcm0: AudioPCI ES1373-B port 0xe800-0xe83f irq 9 at device 11.0 on pci0 The above did eliminate those annoying messages that another app had grabbed the sound card. Any ideas on how to get this to stop? Is it just a byproduct of a cheap sound card? Thanks, Jim __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: Secure tunneling of remote-access Windows sessions?
Darren Pilgrim said: I want to setup VNC on some Windows machines so I can access them over the internet, but I need to secure the connection in a way that will work with NAT'ing firewalls on both ends of the connection. How can I do this? I was thinking of setting up a tunnel between the two firewalls. On the local end, the tunnel starts at a given port on the firewall, which is connected to a port on the remote firewall that forwards to the VNC port on the remote machine.

XDM server?
Hey all. Slightly OT here, but I can't really remember any of the particulars in dealing with remote X sessions.

prefetching port dependencies

Re: java/jdk13 problems
I just ran into this. The key line is: ELF interpreter /compat/svr4/lib/ld-linux.so.2 not found Something about one of the binaries in the Linux rpm is making the binary compatibilty layer think it's an SVR4 binary and not a Linux binary. I had both IBCS2 and SVR4 emulation enabled. I disabled these (comment out in /etc/rc.conf and reboot or unload the relevent kernel modules - svr4.o, streams.o, ibcsXX.o) and then did a make clean and make and all was well. If using KLMs do a kldunload on the relevent modules: kldunload streams.ko kldunload svr4.ko kldstat ibcs2.ko kldstat ibcs2_coff.ko I'm pretty sure that unloading just the Svr4 modules would do the trick. If you've compiled the support static in the kernel you'll need a new kernel.

I am trying to set up an ad-hoc network with some Dell c600 Latitudes in a school lab. One of the machines (A) is plugged into the school's DHCP network via an average, everyday ethernet card. It has no problem accessing the internet, etc. However, system A also has a Cisco Aironet 350 plugged into a PCMCIA slot. The idea is for system A to act as a gateway, firewall, and router for the other three machines (B, C, and D). I have all of the machines running so that they can ping eachother over the wireless link. So my question has two parts. Part the First: Each time I reboot, I am finding myself having to redo the ifconfig on the network cards, and then also having to run ancontrol -n SSID and ancontrol -o 0 on the systems. I am not sure why I have to set up the ifconfig each time, since there are sysinstall generated deltas in rc.conf for the wireless card. I would like (obviousdly) to have these small but annoying tasks automated at startup. I tried putting a shell screipt in /usr/local/etc/rc.d with my other startup scripts to get these settings done for me, but it doesn't seem to catch them. Where should my script go, and what should it contain beyond two ancontrol commands and an ifconfig? Part the Second: None of my books seem very clear onb how to set up machine A as the gateway/router for machines B, C, and D, beyond turning on the router_enable=YES flag on machine A and setting machine A's wireless card as the gateway for machines B, C, and D. Can anyone offer enlightenment on what steps I need to take to get B, C, and D to talk to the outside world? Thanks in advance for any help :) Ian _ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Re: restore question
You guys mentioned earlier that if you are able to you should dump from single user mode. No one ever talks about booting off the fixit CD. Wouldn't that improve your chances of a successful backup because you would be minimizing file changes. In Root you are still running off the / correct? - Original Message - From: Jack L.

Does Ghost sync the files again at the end of the backup??? I am not anti-Ghost, just pro-dump/retore and dd after that and tar after that.. because I feel I can trust them with my data. Dump is NOT guaranteed to work taking an image of a live filesystem. If you want this behaviour, you're better off creating a filesystem snapshot and using your favourite backup mechanism on that. There are no plans that I'm aware of to move the FS snapshotting code into 4-STABLE. jan -- Your comments take the thread out of context and moves far from the original post. I never have said that ANY backup of a live filesystem should be considered safe from corruption. See the word nanosecond. However, to resond, if one has the luxuary of dropping down to single user (to reduce file changes and possible file corruption) and then doing a dump, the integrity of the backup should be reliable. Dump is the only backup program recommended by the Handbook as being safe and has stood the test of time. I cannot have the server down on a frequent basis, so I do dumps daily on live systems. Have used them on occasion to restore and so far, every one has worked fine.including being bootable. Now, the original question was about the existance of a Ghost-like program to duplicate one HD to another. My observation was that dd(1) is the closest thing I know about and it's in the base system. BTW, I've also used dd(1) in a pinch and every case has worked fine there too booted right up and never any indication of a problem. Dump is the only backup program recommended by the Handbook as being safe... Pardon me. That should have been as being safe to move whole filesystems. Not a condemnation of other programs.

Re: Secure tunneling of remote-access Windows sessions?
Murat Bicer wrote: If remote address is not routable you will not be able to access it anyways. So you have to either open port 22 on the firewall of the remote machine which will be natted to the internal ip:port or you have to open port 5900 ( which is not secure). Either way you have to punch a hole on the firewall if you need to access non-routable addresses. Maybe I'm not understanding what you're trying to explain, or maybe I'm not explaining myself well enough. I know this is possible when public IPs are used. What I'm trying to determine (before I spend the time and money to reconfigure gateway2) is if this is possible when the VNC client and server machines aren't directly accessible from the public internet because they're behind NAT'ing gateways. The SSH tunnel gets me through the firewall via the ssh port on gateway2. Local only sees and uses the faked VNC port on gateway1. Assuming local can reach the faked port on gateway1 and gateway2 can reach the actual port on remote, do the IP addresses used even matter? Darren Pilgrim wrote: Doug Poland wrote: Darren Pilgrim said: I want to setup VNC on some Windows machines so I can access them over the internet, but I need to secure the connection in a way that will work with NAT'ing firewalls on both ends of the connection. How can I do this? I was thinking of setting up a tunnel between the two firewalls. On the local end, the tunnel starts at a given port on the firewall, which is connected to a port on the remote firewall that forwards to the VNC port on the remote machine. How would I go about doing this? Is there a better option? I recommend you use the TightVNC form of VNC. Read the info on this link: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/sshvnc.html then read the ssd man page paying close attention to the -L switch. If you have particular problems after this leg work, then ask again. Okay, I see how I can use ssh/sshd running on the FreeBSD gateways on each end of the connection to make the remote VNC port accessible via a port on the local gateway. However, their setup requires that the remote machine have a routable IP address, doesn't it? Modifying the model on the page you sent me: local machine (me) - gateway1 10.2.3.4/24`ssh -g -L 5900:10.1.2.3:5900 gateway2` runs vncviewer| internet | gateway2 - remote machine running sshd 10.1.2.3/24 running vnc server on port 5900 Since the IP address I'm forwarding is non-routable, what happens? What happens to the source IP address, which is also non-routable and, to gateway2, non-local?

pkg_* programs have disappeared
I haven't been completely happy with portupdate, partly because of the numerous errors portsdb reports and which don't seem to harm anything or have any solution, but I decided to install it on my other server anyway, after running it on my primary server for about six months. I installed it from the ports. cd to /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade, make clean make, make install clean. After the installation, I tried running pkgdb -F, as usual, and got a whole bunch of dependency problems, as expected. However, pkgdb wasn't giving me the names of the packages which it said had the problems. OK, so I decided to try using pkg_version to figure out which package was installed. Aha! No pkg_version! Then I found I don't have pkg_create, pkg_add, pkg_delete, pkg_info, pkg_install, whatever. OK, I say to myself, they should be in /usr/src/usr.sbin, right? Wrong. So can anybody suggest what I can do to restore these? portupdate won't work without pkg_create, and maybe depends on some of the others as well. -- Roger To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

FreeBSD 4.7 NIS client, Solaris 5.5 NIS server
I am trying to connect a FreeBSD machine as a NIS client to a Solaris machine. I am seeing success in that ypwhich indicates that it is bound to the server, but it is not actually getting any maps - ypcat says no map by that name for every map. This is the first system on a new subnet, but there are other FreeBSD clients on different subnets that work just fine. I've never seen this behaviour before - ypbind starts up just fine (I specify the server/domain using the -S flag) and ypwhich indicates that it is bound with no errors.

Thanks Carl Newman You'll need to use an application such as gphoto to view images on your camera, I think. Check it's web page to see if your model is supported: http://www.gphoto.org/cameras.html If it is, you may have to add support to your kernel to use it. The devices aren't enabled out of the box yet. BSD proceeds from a minimum install, add extra device support afterward direction, rather than supporting lots of hardware from a generic install. Cleaner, more efficient, but ocassionally a little busier :) If your camera is supported, use the handbook to learn how to build your own kernel (it's easy, and a rite of passage) and then you'll need to ad at least usb and umass support to the kernel. I'm not too experienced with cameras yet, but that's the general chain of events.

For example, I hadn't installed mozilla yet on this box but when I ran: Go to the desired port and do a 'make fetch-recursive'. This will fetch all the distfiles of the port and all its dependencies. (Doing a 'make checksum-recursive' is an even better idea since that will check all the checksums of the distfiles too.) Yep, that works great :) I'd only like to add a handy tip to avoid surprises later when building the ports. If you plan to build the ports with options different from the port defaults (such as WITHOUT_X11=yes or WITH_SSL=yes), it is a good idea to pass the exact same options to make fetch-recursive too. Some times, depending on what options are selected a port automagically downloads different patches or distfiles. By passing the same options in both make fetch... and later make install command lines, you will be sure that the port won't decide to fetch some extra stuff when you start building it while offline.

First, get that `dir` alias out of there! ;)
Move the quotes around in your alias declarations, like:
alias dir='ls -Fl'

want to be read new with each instance of bash into .bashrc.

Confirmation: ext2fs requires kernel rebuild?
Folks, I'm trying to get at a file on an ext2fs slice. I'm a bit confused about kernel recompiles vs. KLDs for Linux compatibility, though. Am I reading correctly at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/linuxemu.html http://www.seabug.org/archive/2000-05/msg00086.html, that I can run Linux applications with a single command or rc.conf entry, but accessing files on ext2 file systems requires a kernel rebuild? This seems a bit backwards -- is anyone aware of work to make ext2fs a standard module, so it can be loaded under GENERIC?

4.7-S: syslog from TiVo
I've just networked my TiVo, and noticed that it tries to connect to 255.255.255.255:514/udp on restart. So naturally I'd like to capture this in syslog, to see what it has to tell me. I opened up the port in ipfw, and see a packet coming through, but after much head-banging on syslog.conf.5, and trial and error, I still can't get anything to showi up in the log file I created for this host, or messages or console.log. What am I missing??
