Are they raving about sites and administrators, or about an OS with a
history of infrequent crashing?

I reccomend NUT(Network UPS tools), www.exploits.org/nut/ is the URL I
think, sample:

sshd and reverse lookups

[Hari Bhaskaran]

Hi,

(while I play around with dummynet, I have yet another q :)

I can't seem to avoid the initial login delay for sshd.
I have turned off reverse lookup - "VerifyReverseMapping no".
I don't use inetd - even then, hosts.allow has only one -
"ALL : ALL : allow". I have an ipfilter firewall which
lets only one tcp port for ssh in (from select IPs).

I see the question has been asked before 
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=2697694+0+archive/2002/freebsd-questions/20021117.freebsd-questions
However, I didn't see any answers there.

/etc/rc.conf: sshd_flags="-4 -u0"
  inetd_enable="NO"

I have turned off RhostsAuthentication, RhostsRSAAuthentication, 
HostbasedAuthentication
No user@host pattern in AllowUsers and DenyUsers -  Things that would
have required reverse DNS lookup according to man page.

An ssh 3.4p1 client running from a different machine with couple of -v's gives

debug1: got SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT
<--- A delay of almost 1 to 2 minutes.
debug3: input_userauth_banner

I use the 'Banner' thing at the server - that is the debug3 line.
I have tried with & without the banner (just being paranoid) but
still the same result.

Any help is appreciated

what cache?  ld and the run-time linker are separate entities and share
no inrofmation.

Re: Mysterious problem with ldconfig and ld

Hmmm, I guess I just assumed that since ldconfig had cached the absolute
path to the library, ld would not need to know the library path as well,
but for some reason it did.

What ultimately fixed the problem was hardcoding the -L /usr/local/lib
in the configure script, since it refused to pick up that directory any
other way.

Thanks for your help.  As a point of curiosity, I'd still like to know
why ld would still need the -L /usr/local/lib if the full path to the
library is already in the cache?

How about ld -L/usr/local/lib -lexpat?  Works fine here:

gabby# ld -L /usr/local/lib -lexpat
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting
start address

If some programs can't find it, it's probably because /usr/local/lib isn't

Sorry to step into the middle of a thread here, but to me it says that
FreeBSD has had, and likely continues to have, a very good development and
testing process for several years now, if not longer.  This is my
justification for using FreeBSD for all of my core services while my users
demand Linux on the desktop.

And, those uptimes just say that FreeBSD was stable 3 years ago.

Yeah, I've always felt the same way.  If you're making runtime changes 
to your systems without testing that they restart properly, you're 
asking for disaster sooner or later; especially as you stack update 
upon update.  If you're not performing updates at all, you have other 
issues.

What's really significant is the (lowest) number of *unscheduled* 
restarts; unfortunately, that's not easily posted on a scoreboard.

Mysterious problem with ldconfig and ld

[Justin Hopper]

This may be a very simple fix, but so far I've found no solution.  Just
installed expat-1.95.5 in a FreeBSD 4.4 machine.  The install went fine,
and I verified that ldconfig had picked up the library:

host# ldconfig -r | grep expat
73:-lexpat.4 => /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4

However, I need to install other packages that require the expat
library, and the configuration fails stating that the expat library
cannot be found.  In fact, just a simple test fails:

host# ld -lexpat
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lexpat

I made sure any previous installations of expat were nuked and all files
deleted.  And the /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4 does exist:

higherinnovation# ll /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  294728 Jan  3 19:44
/usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.4

If ldconfig has an entry for the library and is pointing correctly, what
is the problem?

Maybe I've just been staring at this for too long.

Any help would be appreciated.

For that I would use script(1). I think with tcsh it is not possible to
direct stdout and stderr to both a file and the console.

I am afraid I don't use either Gnome nor Galeon nor GAIM, so I don't think I
can help you with that, but you should set your IP address and hostname in
/etc/hosts to avoid that xauth errormessage.
As for the rest, you sould probably check your jdk1.3.1 installation
or something like that. This libjavaplugin_oji.so-thingy is something I've
encountered too, but with the native FreeBSD version of Opera. Don't really
have a clue on that.

Hi Fuzzy, :)

Since you are running sendmail 8.12.6, I strongly recommend using milter. Of
course, you could also do a quick-and-dirty hack with a macro:

HSubject:   $>Check_Subject

D{MPat}XXX templates
D{MMsg}Go away, please.

SCheck_Subject

R${MPat} $* $#error $: 553 ${MMsg}

Something like that. :)

What is it that makes people rave about the longest uptime? To me, this is
just a list of sites whose admins have neglected to perform the necessary
upgrade-maintenances, seemingly for almost three years even. To me, this is

Heh.  You're looking at this section, no doubt:

  cat > $myfile
  server=`egrep -i < $myfile "In:  [HE][HE]LO"|sed 's/^.*LO *//' `
  if [ "$server" = "" ]; then
server=`egrep -i < $myfile "^Subject.*errors from "|sed 's/^Subject.*errors from 
//; s:\[.*::g' `
  fi

Confusing, isn't it?  The thing is, this program is a filter.  The
first line copies stdin to $myfile for future (multiple) readings.  If
it weren't a filter, the cat command would still read from stdin, so
if it were a terminal, it would just appear to hang.

Hm!

Hi Keith -

  Probably should keep the same thread going - I almost missed your 
reply on this - plus people use the archives to help solve issues :)

  I still think it's a permissions issue, but we can check a few other 
things as well.  What's the output of this command?

  $ps -aux | grep -i 'qmail-lspawn'

  On my system, this is what I get:

  nostromo:[~] >> ps -aux | grep -i 'qmail-lspawn'
  root   164  0.0  0.2   892  196 con- I 6Dec02   0:01.20 
qmail-lspawn ./Maildir/

  Notice the preceding . and the trailing / on the Maildir - do you see 
the same thing?  If not, check your rc file in /var/qmail - it should 
have your delivery method (or, if your directions call for it, it may 
be in a file called defaultdelivery in the /var/qmail/controls 
directory).

  I know that Matt has made the install "simple" by making allot of 
perl scripts  - so check in both places.  It's common to miss the last 
/ or the . in the command.

borders and this time thankfully all I could do was Ctrl-Alt-F1 to the
console again and Ctrl-Z to the "startx" process running.  I then hit
ScrollLock a number of times and copied and pasted the history buffer to a
file (attached, edited slightly).  By the way, thank you list posters (I
forget your email addresses) for your replies about "apmd_enable='YES'"
(fixed my `shutdown -p now` issue) and for the recent post about trying to
come in to my box from the network (an astute test to run if I ever get the
chance, unfortunately I'm on a 1-box LAN :) and don't want to leave my PC
in a crashed and possibly vulnerable state while I go find another PC)...

Can anything be gathered from the attached sysconsole messages?  Oh, also,
is there a tcsh command line I can run that will "tee" messages both to the
console and to a file, such as `startx &2> startx.out` or something? Thx!!

Re: Disable Mozilla profile

[Lee Harr]

Thanks for the reply, I am seeing the profile manager when I try to
open a second instance of Mozilla.  I cant open another instance
until I create another profile.  I understand that these profiles
can
be useful, but they can also be a sole reason not to use Mozilla.


If it is just you, maybe what you are looking for is Ctrl-N
(New window) or (even better) Ctrl-T (new Tab)  ;-)



The mozilla port installs a wrapper script at
/usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla that only launches mozilla the first time it
is
called, and after that passes commands to the running instance.


Hmm... yup. I am pretty sure that is what I am using.
I updated to 1.1 soon after it came out, maybe I should try the
latest version of the port. Thanks.

Sorry. What I meant to ask is how to disable compression control protocol,
not only vj compression(tried disabling vjcomp, but my link still dies after
"LCP: deflink: -- Protocol 0x80fd (Compression Control Protocol) was
rejected!"). The problem might be something else than ccp, but the link dies
everytime at the same point

Since you didn't ask a question, I assume you wanted to ask "how can I
disable software compression on FreeBSD"?

The answer is to add "disable vjcomp" to your ppp.conf file.

iomega usb zip 100

[Ted]

Dear FreeBSDers,
I've tried using the mount command to mount my USB Iomega Zip 100 drive 
but have failed. Upon boot w/ the device plugged into the pc, the 
kernal recognizes it as umass0 but on the very next line it states that 
"Get Lun (stalled)".

How do I mount a USB Iomega Zip 100 drive under FreeBSD 4.7?

Thank you for your assistance,

ppp on freebsd 4.7 - disable ccp?

If I'm reading this logfile right trying to negotiate compression levels
kills my connection.
I got the connection working on windows by disabling software compression.
Dns is static,
so it's defined in resolv.conf. No ipv6 thank you

speed)

The book is pretty useless.  The reason the fix you are using
works is because you have an IPv6 connection by default, and by
explicitly specifying an IPv4 address, IPv4 is used.

The issue here is the .in-addr.arpa. delegation for localhost
is considered to be local.  When the getpeername() happens, it
gets an IPv6 address instead of an IPv4, and the the gethostbyaddr()
hangs looking for "::1.in-addr.arpa.", but has no problem finding
"1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa.".

You can "fix" this by disabling the DNS cross-check in the file
sendmail.cf, and by getting rid of the peer name lookup in the
loopback case.  What you did with the IPv4 just took advanatage
of the fact that the in-addr.arpa. IPv4 delegations existed, when
the IPv6 loopback address ones did not.

This isn't the correct fix.  The correct fix is to add an IPv6 address
and in-addr.arap. delegation for the loopback in your local DNS.


As far as the HoldExpensive I recommended, the way you stated the
problem seemed to indicate that it was a failure to connect, not
a failure to validate a connection was going through.  In general,
ou want to queue up any mail that can bring up a link, if your link
is transiently connected, and then control the link with a seperate
queue interval.  The other DNS statements I made were to ensure that
the interface did not end up bouncing up when sendmail was started,
for local mail delivery, or for remote mail delivery, outside the
administratively controlled queueing intervals (which could be on
the order of seconds, if you wanted).

Redirecting root's email

[Adam Lofstedt]

I am having trouble redirecting root's email to an external email
account.  This is a 4.7-Release box with not very modifications done to
the standard installation.

I have tried creating a .forward file and placing it in /root with my
external email address in the file.  No luck.

I tried editing /etc/aliases and changed the line:
#root: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
to:
root : [EMAIL PROTECTED]

and then I ran the newaliases command.  Still no luck.

I think it has something to do with name resolution, but I'm not sure
what's going on.  In /etc/hosts I have the following:

127.0.0.1  localhost.visimation.com localhost
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxforcefield.visimation.com forcefield
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxforcefield.visimation.com.

In /etc/resolv.conf I have this:
Domain  visimation.com
Nameserver  10.0.0.x

When I look at /var/spool/clientmqueue, it is full of messages.  Here is
a snippet of one:

For some reason sendmail tries to contact localhost.visimation.com

What is the result of command

host visimation.com 

on your box?

Can you check /var/log/maillog file for error messages?

Re: FreeBSD Handbook NIS/YP Instructions

[Bill Moran]

From: Adam Stroud <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Since NIS uses RPC,
do I need to configure inetd.conf to allow RPC on the NIS server and 
clients?
The handbook does not make any mention of editing the inetd.conf file.

inetd doesn't handle RPC.

Use the rc.conf settings suggested in the tutorial and the necessary rpc
servers will be started at boot time by /etc/rc

Once you've got everything running, you can use
ps -ax | grep rpc
to see what rpc servers were started.  I don't actually remember what's
started for NIS, although I believe rpc.statd at least needs to run.

"The Complete FreeBSD", third edition: errata and addenda

[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

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:

The  bottom  two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating

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
the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the f

o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the  following  command  to  find
  process information:

  $ ps aux | grep foo

  Unfortunately,  ps  is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator
  upon which it is working.  This command usually works fine  on  a  relatively
  wide  xterm,  but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate
  exactly the information you're looking for, so you end  up  with  no  output.
  You can fix that with the w option:

  $ ps waux | grep foo

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.

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 specificall

FreeBSD Handbook NIS/YP Instructions

[Adam Stroud]

I am tryin to setup a NIS/YP domain.  I just get done reading that chapter in 
the FreeBSD handbook and I just have a quick question.  Since NIS uses RPC, 
do I need to configure inetd.conf to allow RPC on the NIS server and clients?  
The handbook does not make any mention of editing the inetd.conf file.

The 1200A is an Adaptec branded HighPoint controller.  As such, I believe
that Soren's HighPoint driver should drive it.

Re: Driver for DVD-RAM

[Bill Moran]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Greetings fellow BSD enthusiast.   Can you let me know how to persue the
following question, in the event that it has already been posted and
answered.  I am interested in attaching a DVD-RAM drive to an Intel
computer with FreeBSD operating system.  The computer has a S.C.S.I. board,
and Panasonic makes a drive that attaches to a S.C.S.I. board.  Panasonic
offers no device drivers for FreeBSD.  Has anyone else tried to do this?
Is a device driver available?  Can the proposed arrangement work with a
default S.C.S.I. driver?  Could such a device be made bootable? Any advice
is appreciated.  [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I'm no SCSI or or DVD-RAM expert, but I think I can answer some of your
questions.

For reading, the DVD-RAM should look like a CD-ROM to the SCSI system.
Whether or not there is a driver is something you can check at the
hardware list on www.freebsd.org.  Even if there isn't a specific driver,
it _might_ work anyway, if it's pretty standard in its design.

As far as writing to the device, there are no drivers that I know of.
However, FreeBSD has a spiffy SCSI passthru system that allows software
to directly control SCSI devices: this is how cdrecord works.  Last I
checked, cdrecord did work for many DVD burners, but you couldn't get
the DVD capable version for free, you had to purchase it.  That's been
almost a year, so things may have changed, but there's a point for you
to start researching.

Good luck,
Bill

We actually found it goes:

Internal Net -> NIC -> IPF+NAT -> IPFW -> World
World -> IPF+NAT -> IPFW -> NIC -> Internal net

After seeing this, I didn't even bother to see what the interal side of
the router processed as. I'm sure it would have given me a headache trying
to set up the runs.

Suffice to say, IPF+NAT always sees the packets first (at least on the
outer side of the router)

I just upgraded to 4.51.  My dependencies were all messed up, so I
pkg_deleted cclient and the old pine, used pkgdb -F to fix, and then
installed the new Pine from ports.  No problems with old mail or
settings, at least that I've noticed.

4.7 release with shuttle s40g xpc

[jay]

hello,
does anyone have freebsd working with a shuttle s40g xpc?
at random times, under heavy disk access, i will get either a bus error or
kernel panic and the machine will restart itself.

errors i've seen are things like:

panicstr: softdep_lock: locking against myself
vm_page_unwire: invalid wire count: 0
bus error

i also have a promise fasttrack 100 tx2 IDE RAID card installed in the
box, but as far as i can tell it seems to be recognized and working well.
i have yet to pull that out and test it with a HD plugged into the
motherboard's IDE connectors, but i was wondering if anyone else was
using the ss40g without problems.

the ss40g uses a shuttle spacewalker fs40 amd motherboard w/ a sis 740/961
chipset.  cpu is an athlon 2100+ xp. 512mb ddr2100 ram. promise fasttrack
100 tx2 IDE RAID controller. two 40gb seagate barracuda IV HDs. one aopen

Re: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter

[Konstantin Borovik]

May be /usr/ports/sysutils/ipa is the answer to your problem.

Quote from port description:

ipa(8) allows to make IP accounting (network accounting) based on
FreeBSD IPv4/v6 Firewall (including IPFW2), OpenBSD Packet Filter and
IP Filter accounting rules on FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD.

It supports limits for accounting rules and limits events as "limit is
reached", "reached limit is expired", etc. It understands time intervals
like "end of day", "end of week", "end of month", etc.

ipastat(8) is a viewer for IP accounting database made by ipa(8).

not to stray too far, but if IPFW is set to allow all incoming packets and is
only used for shaping, and you have ipfilter handling nat, then it seems it
would just be:

 network card --> IPFW (traffic shape) --> IPF (filter+nat) --> userland

 i guess an internally NAT address would go back out as:
  IPF --> IPFW --> network card

 doesn't seem that bad...

Re: questions-digest V5 #1820

[J. Seth Henry]

I have a command line utility that handles the lights for now, but I'm
still working on shoehorning the business end into the blanksaver. I
didn't have a development system over the holidays, but I plan to make
another go of it this weekend. I can email you the C source for the
current program, though - it's not terribly complicated.

Right now, I have scripts that turn the green (power) light on during the
boot sequence, and I *almost* have an X server that handles the
extra keyboard/LED's. It translates the "function" buttons as F1-F10, F13
- remaps the volume/mute buttons as 147,148,149. The arrow keys are
simply mapped as, well arrow keys. I thought about having them produce
"ALT+RIGHT/LEFT", but I find I use them on the command line as well.
Lastly, the "PRINTER" button is now an "ESCAPE" key. I really wish I could
get xmodmap to recognize higher scancodes... Lastly, the power button
currently calls an empty function that will toggle the screen backlight on
and off. I'm still working out how this should work with the blanker, but
I get the feeling it won't be a big deal.

I hard-coded most of this in a modified Xfree86 3.3.6 SVGA server. 3.3.6
uses *FAR* less RAM than 4.x does, but it doesn't natively handle
keycodes above 150. I have tried mucking with the 3.x version of xmodmap,
but I can't make it see scancodes over 150 - even when the X server
clearly generates them (I can see them using xev). Otherwise, I would
simply have the server generate high value scancodes, and use Xmodmap to
remap. Can't have it all, I suppose. I find I have ~4Mb of free RAM after
everything is up on this testbed system. (I was swapping heavily with
4.1.2)

BTW - I have a good XF86Config for 3.3.6. 800x600@16bit color. It's
trimmed down to just the basics, but it works quite well.

If I could just get xdm to work! ARGHH - no one on the list seems to know
how to set up xdm at all, much less for remote logins. At least xfs is
working, so I still get pretty fonts in applications. Once I get xdm
licked, I'll be a long ways towards my dedicated x terminals.

Anyway, once I get all the code finished, I'll be more than happy to
share. The entire OS fits on a 340MB microdrive with nearly 50Mb to
spare.

RE: incoming bandwidth limiting using ipfilter

[Daniel Goepp]

The question is, are they charging you for total bandwidth used, or some
real time rate limit?  When you use bandwidth shaping, you can reduce
your rate, but that will just spread things out.  So if they are
charging you for total bytes moved, then you would have to do some math
to figure out what that breaks down to in Mbps, and put a throttle in to
that rate.  I'm not sure what Mike means by packets already traversing
the network.  If you shape your bandwidth, it's not like all those
packets just pile up at your server's front door, waiting to get in.
The IP protocol will pause within itself to not exceed your defined
bandwidth.

That's bad. But if the machine doesn't accept more than N packets/sec,
why would the ISP router forward any more packets to it? I wouldn't
know the internals, but isn't there any kind of flow control in the
protocol?

This is what we settled with eventually, but the processing order for
packets when you're using both IPF and IPFW plus ipnat is seriously
f*rked.

You should not try and open a second instance of Mozilla on the same
profile, since they won't communicate with each other and you'll
probably end up corrupting your cache files, bookmarks, history, etc
etc.  The mozilla port installs a wrapper script at
/usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla that only launches mozilla the first time it is
called, and after that passes commands to the running instance.

It doesn't show the relationships between the messages.  Look at the

Most MUAs do it when you reply.  From RFC 2822
(http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html):

  The "In-Reply-To:" and "References:" fields are used when creating a
   reply to a message.  They hold the message identifier of the
   original message and the message identifiers of other messages (for
   example, in the case of a reply to a message which was itself a
   reply).  The "In-Reply-To:" field may be used to identify the
   message (or messages) to which the new message is a reply, while
   the "References:" field may be used to identify a "thread" of
   conversation.

In your specific case, the headers looked like this after they arrived
here:

just add IPFW, IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT, and DUMMYNET to your
kernel, no
need to remove IPFILTER.

then just add whatever rules are needed for dummynet. IPFW should then
leave
your packets alone for ipfilter to handle.

Thanks.  I tried that and some other things (eg service.switch).  Even
read the book and help files some more.  Terry's suggestion regarding
"expensive" seemed like the opposite of what I needed (I was trying to
keep the msg out of the queues) and I had no luck trying to disable some
DNS which he hinted at.

I got my first good clue after adding level 15 logging to see an 80-sec
delay between MUA-launched sendmail and the MTA daemon.  I then used
level-99 logging to find

I shoulda considered that one big config difference between my 4.7
config and 5.0 is custom kernel without IPv6 on 4.7 and still using
GENERIC kernel with IPv6 on 5.0!  I do have
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain
in my /etc/hosts, but there's apparently something else wrong.

Is there a quick way to disable IPv6?  While I figure that out or
rebuild my kernel, I got a quick fix by changing, in my "submit.mc",
this

Okay - I added a couple more things to my kernel config file - but for
all I know they have nothing to do with getting what I want.  From what
I've read, this is just supposed to work.  I feel like I'm taking shots
in the dark trying different kernel configs, etc. 

I did read the firewire/00README file - but given my level of knowledge
with kernel source and modules it didn't really help much.  I assumed
that everything was done when I did a build/installworld to 4.7 stable. 
I have tried the two methods that I thought would work...  first was the
complete build/installworld.  When that didn't work I did what the
firewire/00README file stated, downloaded the latest firewire tarball
and made it manually.  Neither worked.

I'm still getting 'Device not configured' when I try and mount
/dev/da0s1.

As it's running Solaris 8, it could be a 64-bit machine.

just add IPFW, IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT, and DUMMYNET to your kernel, no
need to remove IPFILTER.

then just add whatever rules are needed for dummynet. IPFW should then leave
your packets alone for ipfilter to handle.

Re: Disable Mozilla profile

[Lee Harr]

I once suggested on bugzilla that there ought to be a
-never-ever-show-the-profile-manager option when starting
mozilla, but I don't think it went over very well.
Here is the (fairly active) bug, relating to mozilla
opening a new window when it is already running and
its icon is clicked again:
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122698

Not sure in what context you are seeing the unwanted
profile manager.

I have a bunch of X-terminals running from a FreeBSD
server, and when the (mostly windows-trained) users get
the profile manager they tend to panic. And even if
they don't panic, there is a somewhat tricky proxy
setup which needs to be set up if they try to make
a new profile. It never works. It would be very nice
to just disable profiles completely.

You might also want to try this question on the
freebsd-mozilla list.

^T shows:

I couldn't find anything about nanslp (locate shows nothing but I
eventually tracked it down to sys/kern/kern_time.c, where it shows up:

sys/kern/kern_time.c:   error = tsleep(&nanowait, PWAIT |
PCATCH, "nanslp",

Hence, it has something to do with the nanosleep(2) syscall.  Other than
this, I don't know what it's doing.  Maybe you are correct that the
shell is trying to do some stuff but I could find nothing like this in
/etc/profile, /etc/csh.cshrc, /etc/csh.login or any of the user's
personal copies.

Does anyone know any hardware (of the size of a regular home
DSL router) that can give me a simple limit of X bps for two
IP addresses. I am running out of time and removing ipfilter
(which I use now) and adding ipfw, learning dummynet and then

I am also hoping it would be in < $500 range.

Darren Reed, the owner of IPF is probably in the best position to answer
that question. I posed it a week ot two ago on the ipf mailing list.. I'm

Re: Spontaneous 4.7-S reboots when using a Serial over USB adapter

[William E Reid]

I have noticed that if I disconnect the serial port from my usb to serial adapter and 
leave the dongle
in(Aten International Serial adapter,  SiS 5571 usb controller),  my machine will 
reset as soon as I
[Attempt to] send data from the usb side.  So maybe you are losing carrier signal

Driver for DVD-RAM

[Lee_Shackelford]

Greetings fellow BSD enthusiast.   Can you let me know how to persue the
following question, in the event that it has already been posted and
answered.  I am interested in attaching a DVD-RAM drive to an Intel
computer with FreeBSD operating system.  The computer has a S.C.S.I. board,
and Panasonic makes a drive that attaches to a S.C.S.I. board.  Panasonic
offers no device drivers for FreeBSD.  Has anyone else tried to do this?
Is a device driver available?  Can the proposed arrangement work with a
default S.C.S.I. driver?  Could such a device be made bootable? Any advice
is appreciated.  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

doesn't appear so...

from http://home.earthlink.net/~jaymzh666/ipf/IPFfreebsd.html#12:

IPF and IPFW both have features I want to use, must I choose between them?

No. You can run them both on a single machine. However, you must take care to
ensure that one package's rules do not interfere with the other's. Note that
the packages get access to rules in the order in which they were loaded, e.g.
if IPFW is compiled in the kernel and IPF is loaded as a module, IPFW "sees"
packets before IPF.

Installing FreeBSD 4.7

[Ying Shi]

Dear Sir,

  I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.7 onto a device.
It's a PIII-1.2GHz with 1024 megs of memory,
two-drive RAID supported by Promise FastTrak100.

I can boot the Kernel floppy and MFS root floppy with no problem.

After all the conflicts had been resolved, /stand/sysinstall Main Menu
was displayed. Then I selected a "standard" installation.
I got a message --- No disks found!

I'm wondering if FreeBSD 4.7 can be installed in above device.


Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

ipfilter won't allow you to limit bandwidth, ipfw will.

Hi,

Is there a way to limit incoming traffic (bandwidth) using
ipfilter/ipfw or any such software tool?. I am running a mail
server and I pay per GB transfered. If I have my ISP do the
limiting, they charge extra $$ for it. I know I can limit
incoming mail size via the mail server. But still doesn't
prevent someone from sending a lot of mail or fill up
a 100mbps line for 24 hrs/day.


I am not looking for a perfect solution, and I do realize
ddos attacks and such are still possible. I am only looking
for a reasonable solution.

I have an Archos Jukebox Recorder and can use it with no problem.
I would expect the Studio to work very similarly. However, I always
plug it in _after_ the kernel comes up so that it's guaranteed to be
recognized. I've never tried booting my box with the Archos already
plugged in.

I use this to mount it:

mount -t msdos -o longnames /dev/da0s1 /mnt

Otherwie your boot message and kernel config file looks very similar
to what I see.

BTW my computer only has USB 1.0 and I'm running -stable.

Xargs is pretty neat.  You have to remember that there are different
implementations of it, too, so xargs on Linux would probably be
different than xargs on *BSD (it always is different in my experience).
The differences would mainly be in switches and default behavior.

I use xargs with lots of different utilities, just depending on what I
need to do with whatever files I'm catching.  For example, let's say I
wanted to rename some files:

locate *.PDF | xargs -I % mv % `basename % .PDF`.pdf

It's handy if you have a bunch of files in one directory that you want
to check somehow:

ls *.{jpg,gif} | xargs -J % file % | grep -v 'JPEG\|GIF'

Moving files to another directory is a popular use:

locate *.suf | xargs -J % mv % /path/to/dir


Note that you do not always need to use xargs.

locate *.PDF | while read name; do
mv $name ${name%.PDF}.pdf
done


There's lots more you can do with it.  Your imagination is almost your
only limitation.  :-)

Multi-terabyte files are possible, so that's not it.

You're probably looking in the wrong place, or else the file is
unlinked but held open by the database program.

No way to tell, at this point.  One thing to check is whether the
system was really dead or just the console.  Coming in via the network
can tell you.  You could always learn about building a debug kernel,
too.

I take it you've seen /sys/dev/firewire/00README ?

Perhaps you want to do a verbose (-v) boot; and/or try pciconf -v -l.

As in the dmesg you supplied there does not seem to be a fwohci entry.
Which is the thing which connects to the actual hardware.

It's been years since I've used solaris, but if this is really the case
then how come there's this entry:

26   www.cravath.com   102 ok892   939   940   Solaris 8
Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) PHP/4.2.3

That's certainly more than 492 days... so even if they do reboot, netcraft
is ignoring it or accomodating it seems like.

Re: 5.0RC2 on an iPaq IA1

[Joshua Coombs]

Mine's a white unit, no onboard ethernet.  The only bus powered device I'm
running right now is the aue ethernet, which I can easily dump for testing.
The HD is self powered.  I'd love a microdrive, but figured I had this 60GB
IDE drive floating loose, and the enclosure/adapter was only $35... might as
well try right? : )  Previously I've been netbooting but getting ticked with
random locks under load, under both Net and FreeBSD.  No warning, no errors
just stops dead in it's tracks.  Figured getting 'local' storage might
stabilize things.

Have you gotten the backlight control code ported over to FreeBSD for these
rigs?  I'd love to have a screensaver module that just shut the LCD down.

Can someone explain the problem behind thise solution as I'd much rather

Do you have any external serial devices, like a modem?  You could also
use another computer and place a null modem cable between them.  Then
use a command like tip(1) or minicom from the ports to connect to the
device.  What evidence leads you to believe that the serial port is bad?
You're positive that it's turned on in the BIOS?  Does dmesg reveal any
"sio" entries?

difs between 4.6.2 and 4.7

[David Bear]

I'm installing freebsd on a dell laptop (latituted).  It only has a 6 gig drive.

I guess my concern is to keep the install small both required memory and disk space.  
Yet, i would like to use the 'newest' version in hopes that it will have the latest 
kde and xfree stuff.  This may be a mistake though.

if the choice is between 4.6.2 and 4.7 which would be a better install if the 
criterion were
1) keep the install small (hard disk space)
2) keep the working set small in ram
3) make sure the important ports will work  -- kde, openoffice, -- a good gui browser 
(any recommendations) and zope

archos and freebsd

[Matt Gostick]

Hello,

  I got an Archos Jukebox Studio 20 for Christmas, and want to hook it
up to my FreeBSD box.  It's uses a usb cable for data transfer, and I've
never had to use usb on FreeBSD before.  I've done some research and the
best page I could find with instructions was
http://www.stalker.org/~sean/freebsd-p2040/... but the kernel config and
supplied archos.sh script doesn't work for me.  I'm a little behind when
it comes to usb...  is that what firewire is?

  On his page it says to compile firewire, sbp, scbus, da and umass. 
I'm cvsup'ed to 4.7 stable from release and did what he said.  When I
try and 'mount -t msdos /dev/da0s1 /archos'  I get 'Device not
configured'.

  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  Could you reply to my email
address as well as the list please b/c I'm not subscribed.

Thanks,
Matt.

I'm no shell guru but how about something like

find ./yourdirectory -name "*pdf" -exec mv {} ./newdirectory \;

you may have to play with the syntax a little but wouldn't this do it?

Updating Pico & Pine

[Danny]

On a FreeBSD 4.3R major production system. Recommended steps to
upgrade *without* 'portupgrade' and do you see any implications? E.g.
address books, config settings, etc.

Current version is 4.21.

Thank you.

Re: Shell guru needed.(xargs question)

[Danny]

Could you please give another realworld example of using xargs and
your definition of it. I had a glance through man xargs, but I enjoy input
from humans that use it as well. :)

Thanks.

/etc/make.conf Examples

[Danny]

Greetings,

I am trying to wrap my head around the make.conf file, and I am curious
to know if others have multiple /etc/make.conf files for certain situations,
or just one.

Could you please post your /etc/make.conf(s) and explain the contents
and resulting actions of your file.

Thank you!

That's normal.

DESCRIPTION
 Host looks for information about Internet hosts.  It gets this informa-

 world.

RE: 5.0RC2 on an iPaq IA1

[J. Seth Henry]

Don't rule out hardware problems. I have been working with 4.7R on an
IA-1. The power supplies in there aren't the greatest, and I've had
problems with wireless keyboards loading the units down to where they had
problems booting.

I would suggest you get a self-powered USB hub, and make all your
connections through it (or try one of those keychain NAND drives). I
managed to get everything, including the wireless keyboard transciever, to
work just fine that way.

That said, I've had the most success with booting my IA-1 from a
microdrive. I did have to boost the CF Vcc to 5V by lifting and jumpering
the middle two pins to an unused serial connector (CN10), but that done,
the system is remarkably stable.

BTW - is your IA-1 a white or blue unit? I'm still trying to figure out
how to get FBSD to recognize the external MII PHY on the clipper ethernet
port.

Good luck,
Seth Henry

Suggestions on how to debug or reduce the errors?  The drive has good

(hooked direct to IDE it tests clean using Quantum's diag util) and the
system will boot fine with a warm reboot of the comp itself, so I'm
guessing
the problem is driver related and not a fault with the HW.

Can't believe no one has used xargs yet...

find /path/to/messydir -name '*.pdf' -type f | xargs -I % mv \
/path/to/messydir/% /path/to/newdir/%

arp -an | grep 

replace  with the MAC addr you have.
