You need to have usbd running (usbd_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf), and
have some options in the kernel:

device  scbus   # SCSI bus
device  pass# SCSI passthrough device
device  da  # SCSI disk device (for umass)

Maybe doing a '# kldload umass' with a stock GENERIC kernel will also
work, I don't know.

At any rate, when you plug it in, the kernel should discover a new
da device, da0 in my case since I don't have any other SCSI disks:

Jan  1 20:01:26 firsa /kernel: umass0: SanDisk Corporation ImageMate CompactFlash USB, 
rev 1.10/0.09, addr 2
Jan  1 20:01:26 firsa /kernel: umass0: Get Max Lun not supported (STALLED)

Jan  1 20:01:27 firsa /kernel: da0: 122MB (250881 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 122C)

I was then able to do something like

# mount -t msdos /dev/da0s1 /foo

To access the data. Note that my CF has partitions (?!) which took me a while
to figure out. It may be that your camera doesn't need that in which case
you need to do 'mount /dev/da0 /foo' of course.

Note that I have a card reader in which I plug my compact flash card;
some digital cameras don't have umass access but need their own protocol,
for which gphoto is likely to have support (as another poster alread said).

HP SCSI?

[Gary D Kline]

Has anybody installed FBSD on a HP Kayak XU6/400 SCSI?
I've got a change to get one or two of these boxes and
would appreciate any insights out there.  Can I drop in 
my 40GB IDE drive?

thanks in advance,

gary

 I have problems to let run bogofilter (I use FreeBSD RELENG_4).
Could someone tell me how to use it ?

By the way, what is the preferred anti-spam package on FBSD

XDM daemon error

[Martinez, Joey]

Hello,

 I have come to an error in my FreeBSD Box.  I edited the default
/etc/ttys file for running the XDM daemon on a virtual terminal by changing
the "off" to "on".  Therefore, the entry is enabled.  When I shutdown and
restarted, my OS went crazy.  The screen goes from the running script to a
grey and white screen with the big X in the middle, and back.  Is this the
end?  Please help.  

PS
Is there a way to configure the sound on my speakers?  I can only hear the
static when I move the mouse.  Thanks!

What difference does it make as to wether these partions are seperate. I 
realise if you have more than one ide drive then having them on seperate 
drives is alot better. On single drive machines I usually make only one 
partion, what reasons are there to slice it?


[SWAG follows]


From a performance standpoint, putting them on separate slices on the

same disk is probably a loss. It forces the blocks in those file
systems to live spread out across the disk, meaning the time
optimizations are constrained to those blocks, whereas if you put them
all in one file system then the disk scheduler can play with the
entire disk.

That said *THIS DOESN'T MAKE ANY PRACTICAL DIFFERENCE*. The scheduler
already slices partitions up into cylinder groups and tries to make
files live on specific cylinder groups. Having different file systems
just means lets it pick from a smaller set of cylinder groups. If
your disk is so heavily loaded that this makes a difference, you
really want multiple spindles.

There are administrative reasons to split them up. For instance, the
backup for /usr is the FreeBSD CDROM set. / and /var I create backups
for, so /usr gets it's own file system, and /var lives on /. On a
second system, / and /usr are mounted read-only - well, they should be
- but /var has the web site on it, which gets updated at regular
intervals. So /var gets it's own file system, and /usr lives on /.

On my test system, which gets config files stored in perforce, I just
make everything one big file system.

	

I Disagree.. it will make a difference. If you partion /var near the 
beginning of the disk (the fastest part - outer tracks) it will force
all the stuff in /var (being logs and stuff) to live at the faster area 
of the disk. If your server is being hit really hard, im sure you dont 
want it seeking all over the disk to write to logs. This could 
potentially add up to quite a performance hit. While an attempt is made 
to ensure that a file exists in the same cyl group, there is no 
garantee. if your logs grow to be quite large. im sure there are several 
other reasons to make seperate partitions. Off the top of my head: stop 
file systems from filling up if you have a process dumping large 
ammounts of data some where, if one file system is corrupted, you dont 
lose _everything_. Discounting the potential pefformance benefits, these 
two reasons alone should be enough to create seperate file systems.

I have no usb toys myself, but I gather it should be as easy as
"mount -t msdos /dev/$foo /mnt/$bar". Then access the camera as a
regular filesystem. Grep dmesg or syslog for "umass" to find out the
device name.

Indeed.

Perhaps.

This may or may not help, but here is the Makefile from /var/yp on our NIS
primary.  You'll likely need to scroll down and extract our amd.home rules
from it and integrate that into yours.

After that is the rc.conf entries for amd 

Good luck.

Well my qmail "me" file is correct, which does resolve [just pinged it from 
attbi].  I do not have a helohost file...but if that file is not there "me" is 
used...well if this got thru then I guess I needed the helohost file.. me wasn't 
enough

If you're getting the error "cannot find your hostname domain.com" then what you
have to make sure is that "domain.com" resolves to an IP address.
You're other option is to change what sendmail (or whatever MTA you use) says
on the HELO line to something that resolves to an IP addy.

What happens, is whatever your mail server announces its name to be on the
HELO line during smtp communication is checked to make sure that it resolves
to an IP.  It doesn't matter what IP, just some IP.
Most MTAs default to using the "hostname" configured for the machine, so if
you set the hostname to something logical (like mail.domain.com) and the DNS
is set up to properly reslove mail.domain.com => 192.168.1.1 (or whatever)
then everything will work.

It's a spam measure, to stop people who haven't taken the time to set up a real
email server from spamming the FreeBSD lists.

FreeBSD and AMD power management

[J. Seth Henry]

I have noticed that my Compaq IA-1's (AMD K6-2/266 & VIA chipset) run
substantially hotter under FreeBSD than under Linux. I didn't realize just
how much until the machines began spontaneously rebooting under load.

Right now, I have a minimal 4.7R install (with X) running from a
microdrive - but I don't have problems until I start running X for long
periods of time. I am migrating from Midori linux with kernel rev 2.4.18,
and it can go for weeks (even months) running xmms locally. Just
windowing xmms from another machine will cause spontanous reboots under
FreeBSD.

It doesn't appear to be a kernel panic - this machine has a thermal
protection circuit which will hold the system in reset if it gets too
warm, and so far, nothing has shown up in the logs (beyond the usual
startup message regarding / being unmounted improperly). This leads me to
believe that FreeBSD isn't issuing halts when it is idle, or the CPU is
simply "idle" less. I have noticed that FreeBSD accesses the microdrive a
*lot* (though Linux may be as well, but I can't hear it because it's
running from flash)

Is this a "normal" limitation in FreeBSD, or did I miss something in the
kernel config?

Video config for X on EPIA-5000 board

[Bill McMilleon]

Playing around with my nice and completely quiet 
VIA EPIA-5000 board and I'm so far not able to get
X happily configured.  Dmesg describes video hardware
as a Trident 8500, but there is no equivalent listed
under XFree86's card list.  I've tried both VESA and
standard VGA to no avail.  I do know that this board
uses main system RAM as video memory, if that helps.
All I get now is failed attempts to run "startx."
I'm hoping someone out there has already figured this
board out.

ISP billing/etc software

[Peter]

Hello, 

Got a question for anyone in the know.  I need to install some billing/account 
management/ change radius passwd etc. software for an ISP. So far the good ones [I 
think] that I have found are:freeside ispbs ispman 

Anyone know / can recommend one of those or something else [they are not in ports so I 
assume there should be something better that is in ports]that will do automatic credit 
card billing, user can change radius password, check his bill/account, and other 
various isp stuff. 
[should this be a -isp question?] 



Another questionmy mail server's IP resolves to "domain.com", I tried sending an 
e-mail to -questions from there but I keep getting this error: 
Client_host_rejected:_cannot_find_your_hostname so should I fix my reverse DNS 
to map IP to "www.domain.com" instead of "domain.com"?, if so why??

 The correct thing to do is to leave the sendmail binary alone and
 tweak /etc/mail/mailer.conf so that the sendmail replacement is
 invoked instead of the base-system's sendmail.

Now that I understand this I have to say I agree with the way things are.
Using the name "sendmail" makes one side of the community happy,
effortlessly.  Providing hooks to allow inserting a substitute for the
standard binary makes the other side (or sides) of the community happy,
basically effortlessly.

Making /usr/sbin/sendmail a symlink I am guessing permits one to customize
without using the mailwrapper mechanism, for those who don't like it.  I am
guessing that using mailwrapper probably results in a performance hit
compared to modifying the usr/sbin/sendmail symlink to directly point to the
ultimately-desired "sendmail" binary.

My confusion resulted from a faulty memory of what happenned, which I
correct here:

In my case I had been altering the sendmail symlink, and this conflicted
with my VPS provider's standard system upgrade procedure, which replaced my
altered symlink.  By using the mailwrapper mechanism instead of replacing
the symlink I perhaps take a performance hit, but I have accepted this to
avoid the problem on future upgrades.  I suspect the performance hit is
minor compared to everything else that goes on in one of these email
transactions, but would appreciate confirmation if anyone else has a better
sense of this.

NIS Server with amd.home

[Eric Osterweil]

Hey,

I'm getting ready to setup a NIS server for a LAN, and
I'd really like to use FreeBSD again.  However, the
last time I did this with FreeBSD (4.6, so not that
long ago), I couldn't get the server to build a map
for the home dirs.  I tried an awk script in the
Makefile that I saw online, but that didn't help.  It
seemed like it just wouldn't build the map.  The only
way I could get it to work was to create an amd.home
with all of the users in it and put it on all of the
client machines... This was too ugly.

Can anyone help?

TIA,

Eric

Boot loader failing?

[Mike Meyer]

Googling the archives wasn't much help, so

I have a test machine that boots a number of things, FreeBSD -stable
and -current among them. I tried installing the latest 5.0 CDs, and
that failed miserably (the install process insist you have a swap, but
can't find the one I use on ad0s6c). So I rebooted the system to go
back to -stable.

It failed to come up. Since this box runs a variety of OS's, including
two different FreeBSDs, I use grub to boot it. It loaded the grub
stage2 boot and then went to the grub command prompt. Trying to run
the boot by hand - via "root (hd0,1,a)" - gets the message "no such
partition". When I ask grub for a list of partitions, it lists the two
FreeBSD partitions, but says it can't find "sub-partitions" for them.

I can boot FreeBSD-stable - I haven't tried -current - as if it were
Windows: make the FreeBSD partition the active partition and run the
standard MBR.

I tried installing boot0. It lists the XP partition and the two
FreeBSD partitions (so much for Linux). Asking it to boot the two
FreeBSD partitions results in beeps. It boots XP just fine - which
means that entry is slightly more useful than the FreeBSD entries.

I tried getting the latest version of grub, but that's a no go. I can
boot it off the floppy, but it doesn't see sub-partitions either.

If I boot -stable from grub as described above, everything comes up
and works fine. I can even mount the -current partion and see that
everything is as it should be. But neither boot loader seems to work.

Clues? Hints? Request for more information? Help?

[SWAG follows]

>From a performance standpoint, putting them on separate slices on the
same disk is probably a loss. It forces the blocks in those file
systems to live spread out across the disk, meaning the time
optimizations are constrained to those blocks, whereas if you put them
all in one file system then the disk scheduler can play with the
entire disk.

That said *THIS DOESN'T MAKE ANY PRACTICAL DIFFERENCE*. The scheduler
already slices partitions up into cylinder groups and tries to make
files live on specific cylinder groups. Having different file systems
just means lets it pick from a smaller set of cylinder groups. If
your disk is so heavily loaded that this makes a difference, you
really want multiple spindles.

There are administrative reasons to split them up. For instance, the
backup for /usr is the FreeBSD CDROM set. / and /var I create backups
for, so /usr gets it's own file system, and /var lives on /. On a
second system, / and /usr are mounted read-only - well, they should be
- but /var has the web site on it, which gets updated at regular
intervals. So /var gets it's own file system, and /usr lives on /.

On my test system, which gets config files stored in perforce, I just
make everything one big file system.

What difference does it make as to wether these partions are seperate. I 
realise if you have more than one ide drive then having them on seperate 
drives is alot better. On single drive machines I usually make only one 
partion, what reasons are there to slice it?

It makes a lot of difference.  I don't remember the exact numbers, but
the inside of the drive spindle transfers data noticably faster than the
outside.  Therefore, putting busy partitions (such as /var and /tmp) at
the beginning of the drive can improve performance a good bit.
Additionally (if you really want to crank up the throughput) you can
format and mount partitions with options that better benefit their
purpose (such as mounting noatime on a /tmp partition).
So, proper partitioning CAN make a big difference in performance.
Especially since the hard drive can _easily_ become the performance
bottleneck on a server.

the only tuning they did ("kernel tweaks for high performance" lol) was
upping kern.maxfiles and kern.maxfilesperproc... all one can argue
this shows is that out of the box freebsd 4.2 isn't configured for optimal
performance on these tests...

I would tend to think that these people did bugger all in terms of 
performance tuning the FreeBSD box. It wouldnt surprise me if they 
didn't turn on soft updates for one. Other thing that is quite likely
is they probably didn't make seperate slices for /, /var and /usr.

I would guess that they did some (probably limited) tuning to the Linux 
box they were testing with. If you look at the 'Sidebar 2' page, they
state a few OSs they use internally, Linux being one. I suspect that
they might be knowlegeable about Linux, Solaris and Windoze and 
performance tuning each (look at what they use them for). The only BSD 
they have is OpenBSD for their firewall(s). Not much tuning needed there
to get good network performance. Same goes with FreeBSD if all you are 
doing is using it for a firewall. Based on this I'd say they have little 
to no experiance tuning FreeBSD/*BSD for performance.

That being said, anyone that claims FreeBSD's performance isn't that 
great is probably full of shit. Check their background, I bet they don't
specialise in any sort of BSD, or have used it much at all :)

# moused -f -p /dev/psm0 -t auto

The -f runs it in the foreground so you can just ^C it.

"kill -1" is just a HUP.  It makes moused restart, not quit.  Try
without the -1.

Ok I found out the proper numbers:
39704  cyls, 16 heads, 63 sectors. 

I defined it that way in the BIOS.

When I get to the fdisk part of the install I did 'G'.  I then set the geometry

the slices, though, it still thinks the drive is only 2 gigs.  What am I doing wrong?

Re: Mouse Murder

[Christopher J Phillips]

OK, I'll try with another mouse ps2 style & see if it is any different.

As far as killing the moused, I'd be fine if I knew exactly how to
restart it, to see if that will fix the problem without rebooting...

I believe it's currently set up as /dev/sysmouse.  I have not actually
needed to "set it up" as simply starting the mouse demon in
/stand/sysinstall makes it work.  I have not configured it since.  MS
Windows sees the mouse pad as a ps2 mouse.

Thanks Randall

Can you try letting X talk to the mouse directly? I know I had strange
mouse problems with moused and they went away when I let X do things
directly.

Mouse Murder

[Christopher J Phillips]

Chris suggested killing moused like this: -

furrie@furriebox% ps -ax | grep moused
  123  ??  Ss 0:00.70 moused -p /dev/psm0 -t auto
furrie@furriebox% kill -1 123
furrie@furriebox% ps -ax | grep moused
  123  ??  Ss 0:00.70 moused -p /dev/psm0 -t auto

The process is still there & my pointer aim problems continue :-( 

Should the pid change?

Having tried it like this & my mouse still not aiming correctly, I'm
losing hope...  Unless you guys can provide any?

--- Previously I wrote ---
During X sessions, my mouse pointer is fine (usually).  Intermittently,
and without any "obvious" reason, the mouse pointer aim "shifts"
approximately 1.3cm to the right of where the actual pointer is acting.

I feel like I have to explain further as its "that weird"...

If I wanted to select the * section, in the "Test Area:" below, I
would position my cursor / pointer in front of the first * & then
click_n_drag to the right, till all the *s were selected.  In fact what
actually happens is that I'd have the @s selected instead.  That's
how far out of alignment it goes.  It makes things a bit difficult using
windows & dialog boxes, when you have to place the pointer over one
button, to be able to press another!

Test Area:  @*

This "weirdness" also happened when I was using Linux Mandrake 8.2,
(before I discovered what a great idea FreeBSD is ;-)
Not wanting to sound (too) lame, this didn't ever occur when I used
Windows 2k Pro or XP Pro.
I get the same problem when in either GNOME or KDE.
I had it when I installed FreeBSD 4.7 RELEASE & still have it after
updating (tracking STABLE), using CVSup.
 
A reboot is all that will get things back on track for me.  I know how
to kill moused but I am not sure how to restart it within or without X
from the command line (which I might be able to reach without a mouse,
right?)...
I suppose I could exit X, kill moused, restart it, then get back into X,
but I'd still need to know how to run moused (OK, I'm sounding lame
now).

Just in case you need it: -

Compaq Evo N150 Laptop

If you want to lock the X session, try xlock + xscreensaver.  Both are in

Have you tried mounting the device anyways?  I use "mount -t msdos
/dev/da0s4 /mnt" (I might be a bit off about the device name - I will
check later tonight).

It could be a bad zip disk.  Have you tried doing an extended format
using the IOMega drivers under Windows?

Linux comes out the fastest because they do fun things like including
support for http in the kernel. I have heard of a lot of problems with
postfix on Linux because the filesystem doesn't journal properly so in
the event of a crash all your mail is lost (postfix was told it was
delivered, etc). Recent research into NFS I have done also suggests that
Linux is much slower than FreeBSD due to the nature of network
buffering.

I would say that the benchmarks were performed on stock installs without
optimizations (such as recompiling the kernel to take advantage of a P3
or better). Given the opportunity to tweak each setup, my guess is Linux
and FreeBSD would be on top, with Windows ranking last (because it's not
open source, you have less control - what you get is what Microsoft gave
you).

I'm not advocating any operating system above any other. I think people
should determine what they want to do with their system, find out what
platforms are capable of handling it, and perform their own benchmarks
for their particular application. If only the authors of such articles,
who really should know better, did the same thing.

I think you're right.  So should I just define the drive correctlt in fdisk?  If so, 
what would be the proper settings.

Interpreting dummynet stat (ipfw pipe list)

[Hari Bhaskaran]

Hi,

I see the following output when I do ipfw pipe list.
(I am using dummynet to limit bandwidth usage).

I see I have 678 and 49 under Drp. Does this mean the packets are dropped
to limit the bandwidth or something else is going on?

Can I read the output to mean 46161845 bytes where sent to port 53 of
ip 192.112.36.4 and 22607731 bytes were rcvd from port 53 of IP
128.63.2.53. That seems quite large considering it is just dns lookups.

I am using djbdns

Any help is appreciated

Bios not recognizing correct HD size

[Mike Loiterman]

 
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

PROBLEM 
I have an old Compaq machine that I'm trying to install a 20 gig drive into, but it's 
only recognizing the first 2112MB.  Obviously this is a limitation of the BIOS.  Aside 
from buying an PCI ATA card (the machine only has one PCI slot and I'm using it for my 
NIC), is there anyway to get this drive working on the exsisting system?


CURRENT SETTINGS
Compaq Presario 4504
Phoenix BIOS, not sure what version
Maxtor Drive, not sure which model since there are no markings on the drive itself
Drive is Primary Master and the Cylinder Limitation Jumper is set as well.

Detection Type:  Auto
Cylinders: 4092 
Heads: 16
Sectors 63  
Multi-Sector Transfers: 16 Sectors
LBA Mode Control: Enabled
32 Bit I/O: Disabled
Transfer Mode: Fast PIO 4.

I can put the drive into User Detection mode and adjust the Cylinders, Heads, and 
Sectors myself, but I don't know what settings to use.

Thanks to all for help.

If you want to do it for all files in a directory:

# for file in *; do mv "$file" `echo $file | sed -e 's/ /_/g'`; done

should do the trick. I think Perl is overkill for something this simple.
Someone else suggested tr, which probably works, but I've had more
success with sed.

cheers,
Duncan

It looks like garbage to me.  He doesn't give enough information to
reproduce his results, though I strongly suspect the FreeBSD box
has softupdates disabled, and is therefore going to be slower.

His writeup isn't even very good.  On the initial page he claims

Dell PowerVault 122T

[Mike Hogsett]

Greetings,

Has anyone used a Dell PowerVault 122T tape loader with FreeBSD.
Specifically I am interested on how well the tape changing works.

 - Mike

P.S.  I would like to use the 122T with the LTO tapes, and Amanda to do
our backups.  I use two Sony AIT SDX-400C drives now.  I have been looking
at the 122T as a potential upgrade in capacity for our system.

Problem with USB Kodak DX4900

[Jeffrey Eugene Crawford]

Hello everyone,

	I origionaly posted this message to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" but recieved 
no responce as of yet. I'm hoping that someone here might point me to the right 
direction as to where I may be able to better ask this question or even help me 
right away if possible. Since my last message I have turned on USB debugging and 
have some more information showing up on the console:

usbd_new_device: addr=3, getting first desc failed
uhub_explore: usb_new_device failed, error=TIMEOUT
uhub0: device problem, disabling port 1

After removing the device I get

uhub0: port error, restarting port 1

Also after enabling the debugging I have noticed that the other port (2) in 
which my scanner is attached works dispite port 1 being disabled when I try to 
attach my camera (See below). I would relly like to try getting this camera to 
work in FreeBSD! If anyone can help me I would love to help allow this camera to 
be added to FreeBSD's support list :) My original message below

==

Hello everyone,

I've been looking around the newsgroups, and mail archives the past
couple of days, but I still can't get the thing to work. When I try to connect
the Kodak DX4900 digital camera to my USB port, I get (After a slight delay)
the following message appears on the console:

uhub0: device problem, disabling port 1

After that my Mustek 1200UB scanner stops woking with a similar message
identifying port 2 this time. Only a reboot with the Camera not attached will
reenable the Mustek Scanner again. the output of "usbdev -v" will print a
message on the port where the camera is installed "this can't happen!" (Or
something simmilar). My VIA chipset seems to show up often when I'm searching
for USB problems in the newsgroup and freebsd archives. I'm starting to assume
that the VIA USB chipset is not all that its cracked up to be.

Please note that I'm not subscribed to this mailing list so please remember to
include me in the CC when responding to this mail. Here is the output from
dmesg when camera and scanner were attached:

Tabbed browsing is less important than exchange support,
I gather? ;-)

anyone tried KDE 3.1?

[Andrew Y Ng]

I'm highly interested in a few new features in KDE 3.1, like tabbed-browsing
support in Konqueror, and the new MS Exchange 2000 plugin for the konganizer.
if that stuff works well I don't need Linux at work (now I need it for Ximian
Connector).

I'm wondering if anyone here tried to compile KDE 3.1, maybe somebody from
the freebsd KDE team can give us some headsup for their progress?

thanks!

Perhaps I wasn't quite precise: Because Netscape is running in
Linux emulation it "thinks" your home directory is in
/compat/linux/usr/home/your_homedir
and wants to place ~/.mozilla there, but it can't because
your_homedir is in
/usr/home/your_homedir
So you can
# ln -s /usr/home/your_homedir /compat/linux/usr/home/your_homedir

No, the error would manifest differently if that were the case.

Sounds like your sed binary is corrupt (or maybe a library).

I don't know about that specific disk controller, but perhaps you

That's ok - it means that the kernel will run on both (i.e. less optimization).

Is *this* actually correct?

Looks as if you've enabled two different CPU classes here in the kernel.

It shouldn't do that, of course.  Try following the steps in "man crash"

Problem with Microtech XpressSCSI HD50

[Josh Malone]

Hello,

I am unable to get my Microtech USB XpressSCSI HD50 to work
properly under FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE.

I am running 4.7-RELEASE and the problem manifests itself with a custom
kernel and GENERIC.

When I plug the device into the USB port, kernel messages indicate that the
device is recognized but is acting up:

umass0: Microtech International, Inc. USB-SCSI-HD50, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2
umass0: Get Max Lun not supported (STALLED)
umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT
umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall failed, TIMEOUT
umass0: BBB bulk-out clear stall failed, TIMEOUT
umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT
umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall failed, TIMEOUT
umass0: BBB bulk-out clear stall failed, TIMEOUT

Can anybody shed any light on what the problem could be?  I bought
this device because the umass(4) man page says it's supported.  The device
works under windows 2000 on the same laptop.  The custom kernel has da,
ohci, uhci and usb compiled in.  And my Sandisk ImageMate usb->compact
flash reader works great (shows up as da0) so I know my system has the
prerequisites for this device.

Does anybody have one of these things working?  Any help would be
greatly appreciated?  Thanks.

well, I'm not sure how FreeBSD 4.2 is "the latest version 
available from a commercial distribution" for one thing.

Isn't one of the benefits of open source OSes that you can 
customize the kernel to meet your needs? Seems to me this is not a 
 very meaningful comparison. This seems like a pretty generic 
task: it's hard to see how FreeBSD came in dead last.

Re: Apache stress testing tool ?

Hello!

I checked ab on my FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE server with installed 
apache+mod_ssl-1.3.27+2.8.11 and 
mod_gzip-1.3.19.1a, 
mod_log_mysql-1.14, 
mod_perl-1.27, 
mod_php4-4.2.3 

for three times.  
Two times the server rebooted without a messages in the logfiles! :-(

For one time it worked.

Does anyone has any idea, why the server rebooted??

I used the following command:
ab -n 1000 -c 1000 http://target

The same test works without any problems on an old pentium 133 with
Freebsd RELEASE 4.7, but only with installed perl an php modules.

Thanks for help!

Re: creating user dirs

L> Is there a simple solution for creating all user directories under

   Create a subset of the passwd file with the user, group, and home
   directory only:

 # cut -f1,4,6 -d: /etc/passwd | grep /home/ | sed -e 's/:/ /g' > /tmp/pw

   Create the directory tree.  You need the '-p' flag in mkdir if you
   have multiple levels of directories under /home:

 # awk '{print "mkdir -p", $3}' /tmp/pw | sh

   Next, set permissions.  Use 750 instead of 755 if you don't want
   world read access to user's home directories:

 # awk '{print "chmod 755", $3}' /tmp/pw | sh

   If you want to populate the home directories with some default dot files
   (.profile, etc) you can do something like

 # cd /etc/skel
 # awk '{print "find . -print | cpio -pdum", $3}' /tmp/pw 

   Finally, set ownerships.  This assumes you want the user's home
   directory and files owned by the user and the default user's group:

 # awk '{print "chown -R", $1"."$2, $3}' /tmp/pw | sh
 # rm /tmp/pw

SUP

[Sellenschuetter, Mike]

It has been our experience that in order for the sup process to distribute a
file, the file in the repository needs to be other readable (644, for
example).  Whenever we remove the read bit from other (640), the SUP process
will not distribute the file.  The supfilesrv process is running as root.
Is there anyway to configure the sup process to distribute a file when the
file's mode does not have the other bit set to readable (640)?  

Thank You,

rw,noauto,-W=AccountDomain,-I=RealName.My.Domain.Edu 0 0


Even the following fails from a command line:
#>mount -tsmbfs -o -I=RealName.My.Domain.Edu,-W=AccountDomain 
//Account@NBName/MY\040SHARE mntpoint/

This show a little more info (note the -d -v):
#>mount -tsmbfs -d -v -o -I=RealName.My.Domain.Edu,-W=AccountDomain
//Account@NBName/MY\040SHARE mntpoint/

Which returns:
>exec: mount -tsmbfs -d -v -o -I=RealName.My.Domain.Edu,-W=AccountDomain
//Account@NBName/MY040SHARE mntpoint/

Which seems to mean that \040 resolves to simply 040.


The following works (using "\ ") from a command line:
#>mount -tsmbfs -o -I=RealName.My.Domain.Edu,-W=AccountDomain
//Account@NBName/MY\ SHARE mntpoint/

But "\ " does NOT work in the fstab file.

Any other ideas, anyone?

Maybe something like this?

#!/usr/bin/perl
@ls = `ls`;
chomp @ls;
foreach (@ls) {
$before = $_;
if(/\ $/) { chop $_; }
s/\ /_/g;
system("mv \"$before\" $_");
}

This is the kind of question which will come up with hundreds of
solutions from hundreds of persons. :-)

Before using above script you should make a backup first!

Possible to do as 1 line in perl, better done as 5 line readable script

look up the perl command chomp

Hope that points you in the right direction, alternatively google for
regex, and look specifically for how to look for something ending in
something.

your input | sed "s/ *$//
s/ /_/g"

The first line means 'remove all spaces before the end of
the line', the second mean 'change all spaces to
underscores', and if you don't close the quotes, sed will
run this one after the other.

KDE 3

[Ian Watkinson]

Upgraded perl to 5.8.0 
Edited /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk file to reflect this,
removed the old lib files,linked in the new ones.

However when trying to install the KDE3 port, I get an error

Now, I know I can hack /usr/bin/perl5.00503 to point to perl (5.8.0)

But why does it referece this specific perl version?

Renaming files with spaces in the name to files without spaces..

[BigBrother (BigB3)]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Sorry for this OT but I am trying for some hours to achieve a massive
rename of files using a simple script and I have not success yet. I want
to rename files like

"RESULTS OF JAN 01 2002.txt "

to

"RESULTS_OF_JAN_01_2002.txt"

i.e. all the spaces, being substituted by '_', and the last space being
completely removed [yes it has a space after the suffix]
I tried to experiment with sed/awk and creating a sample sh script with
for i in 'ls' 

but the i takes values of 'RESULTS' 'OF' 'JAN'. This means that it doesnt
take the full filename as value, but parts of the filenames.


Can u please suggest an easy way to implement the massive rename?




Thank you very very much in advance

can't boot off HPT37A RAID1 array

[Roman Neuhauser]

Hi there,

I'm trying to get FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE boot off of HightPoint RocketRAID
100 (HPT370A, BIOS v. 2.34) based RAID1 array. 

The machine is IBM Netfinity 3500 M10 with an Adaptec AIC-7895 (v.  2.10)
The disks are two Seagate Barracuda IV ST340016A (PRI/SEC masters on the
card).

I've created the array in the BIOS, dump|restore'd /dev/ad0s1
filesystems (/, /usr) to /dev/ar0s1, halted the machine, and removed the
ad0 disk.

Now I'm supposed to be able to select a disk or an array to boot from in
the HPT bios but as far as I can tell it doesn't really offer the array,
just the disks. Or I don't understand the output, which is *very*
possible:

Channel Status
ChannelDrive Name  Array Name  Mode Size(GB)  Status
( ) Primary Master:ST340016A   RAID_1_0ATA/100  40.01 HDD2
Primary Slave: No Drive
Secondary Master:  ST340016A   RAID_1_0ATA/100  40.01 Hidden
Secondary Slave:   No Drive

IOW it offers (only) the Primary master for selection. I press enter
here, and the HDD2 status changes to BOOT. I quit the BIOS (esc, y), the
system reboots, but only gets here:

Press  to run BIOS Setting Utility
Scan Devices: Please Wait...
Primary Master:RAID_1_0
Primary Slave: No Drive
Secondary Master:  RAID_1_0
Secondary Slave:   No Drive
Invalid partition
Invalid partition
No /boot/loader

>> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default: 0:da(0,s)/kernel
boot:
Invalid partition
No /kernel


BTW, the array seems to be otherwise fine:

Array Status
Array Name  Array Mode  Block Size  Size(GB)
RAID_1_0RAID 1 (Mirroring)  N/A 40.01


I've searched the freebsd-quesions@ mailing list archives, and found
posts with the same problem, replies to those "it works ok here", but no
real help.

Can you help me out of this?

Thanks,

Roman Neuhauser

entering smbfs shares with spaces in name in fstab

[Matt Smith]

I am looking to make an entry in my fstab for an smb file share that has
a space in  the name.



//Account@NBName/MY SHARE  /mntpointsmbfs
rw,noauto,-W=AccountDomain,-I=RealName.My.Domain.Edu 0 0



I have tried many variations on the share name using double-quotes,
single-quotes, "\ ", with no success.

>mount /mntpoint
fstab: /etc/fstab:17: Inappropriate file type or format
fstab: /etc/fstab:17: Inappropriate file type or format
mount: /mntpoint: unknown special file or file system

mount is parsing the fstab and using the space in the share name as a
delimiter.

Any ideas how I can make this entry in my fstab?  Unfortunately,
renaming my share is NOT an option.

Thanks all,
-Matt

I've set up the web server so that it thinks it is www.mac.com
(servername). I've also added an entry to my hosts file to make my mac
look at my IP for www.mac.com. The certificate also believes that it
is for www.mac.com

Posted a reply to this a while back (check the archives).

After installation you just need to recompile the kernel (see the
freebsd handbook).

You just need to uncomment/enable these options in the GENERIC kernel
configuration like so:

#cpuI486_CPU
cpu I586_CPU
cpu I686_CPU

options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel
options APIC_IO # Symmetric (APIC) I/O

recompile and reboot:

#cat /var/run/dmesg.boot | grep SMP

should give you this message:

SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched!

If you're curious, you can run top. It will have a CPU column.
