[NEWBIE] Using external SMTP-Server for mail
Hei :) I've gotta question, which may seem very dumb for some of you, but I really need to know. How do I set up mail in FreeBSD that it uses an external mail-server? In my case I need to send the messages that will send my cron and some apps. But our Systemadministrator will does not allow me to use the FreeBSD with sendmail as server, he says that I have to use our M$ Exchange as mail server. Thank you very much in advance and sorry for the dumb question. -- Peace, Matthias LoCal Schonder -- You can kill the revolutionary but you can't kill the revolution!

Re:
hello i bought an emachine and i chose to put freebsd on it to try it out and when i go to use the x window it goes and shows it to big on my screen so i went to the manufacturers website to get the specs of the system so i can get the display to show correctly like the book said but they wouldnt give out the information so what is there that i can do now to get it to work properly ___ If you are within 45 days, take it back where you bought it.

(Solved) Strange dial-up related DNS problems
I got it fixed (or atleast, as good as it can be fixed) For future reference, here's what went wrong. During the weekend, SAIX upgraded and repaired all Cisco equipment on their network. During this repair, they somehow managed to break something major. The /etc/ppp/options file on the offending BSD box contained the asyncmap 0 option. This tells pppd not to escape characters leaving as part of packets that could be misunderstood as being controle characters by the other side. This has been woking fine for a long time. however, during SAIX's tinkering, they managed to get their PPP gateways to not ignore controle characters coming in as part of IP packets, as they should be doing. What was going wrong was that some part of the DNS query must have been seen as some arb. controle character. The machine then handled the packet incorrectly, and it never reached the NS it was meant for. To fix this, just remove asyncmap 0 from your config file. This gives a slight performance hit, but with the wonderful resourcefullness of some ISPs, what can you do... Origional message follows: This gets a 10.0 on my weird-o-meter. I have a FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE machine sitting at a client which dials in and collects their mail via POP3, and sends outgoing mail via a smarthost which points to an SMTP server at their ISP. This machine has worked fine since late last year, but started giving a strange problem this week. When connected to their ISP, SAIX, the machine can ping any live internet IP and it can traceroute to anywhere, but, it can not talk to any DNS server. Any traffic to port 53 UDP simply seems to dissapear. The same with firewalling enabled as normal, or even with ipfw add 1 allow ip from any to any When connected to any other ISP we have tried dialing, all works perfectly. When dialed from another FreeBSD box with the same username/password, the SAIX connection works perfectly. Yet, this single machine absolutely flat out refuses to talk to any name server while connected to SAIX, firewalling, no firewalling, no difference. I have tried running tcpdump -i ppp0 udp port 53 in an attempt at capturing these packets, nothing, I also looked at rl0 just for interest's sake, nothing. I have run out of ideas, what am I missing?

Re: Server spinning out of control...

I had a similar problem once, not as extreme as the one you describe but the symptoms where the same. A few times a day one of our servers reported load averages at about 5.0-5.5. By the time I got there (30 second run to the serverroom) the server was always back to almost idle, avg around 0.2-0.5. The only thing that was different in this compared to most of the other servers was the nic. Since the onboard nic died we had to replace it with a low profile PCI nic. I cant remember the exact make and model, but it was probably something cheap from the nearest computer store. Using systat I noticed that during the bursts of high loads the number of interrupts on the nic went skyhigh. We replaced the nic with a more wellknown brand, and the server flatlined its load average. Its still doing exactly the same tasks but rarely goes above 0.1. -- R ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: PIII SMP
John Baldwin wrote: You may not be happy with P III's. I'm not sure if the SMP code has been changed to handle only the xAPIC now, or not; there was a discussion a little while back about supporting more than 16 CPUs in a machine, which would require this change. Adding support for xAPICs isn't going to break P3 machines. Less FUD please. One of my test machines is a dual ppro 200 and although I haven't booted it in a while it ran current just fine the last time I tried. I'm not trying to FUD. It wasn't clear to me at the time whether the discussion was geared toward having both APIC and xAPIC support, or only xAPIC support. Maybe you could clear that up. I'm not happy with my Circa 1996 dual P90 box. It's not inconceivable that non-xAPIC processors might get deprecated in the rush to more than 16 CPU's, like my ASUS dual P90 box seems to have been. Also, the recent change to make SSE instructions the build default also bit me on one of my machines without SSE support. -- Terry ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: SNMP
I second the recommendation for net-SNMP. It also provides most of the
functions for Microsoft Windows that it does for Unix-type environments.
Code generators and related utilities are far less automatic than many
commercial products, but the quality and flexibility are high. There is a
set of tutorials and you can run many of them against yourself in
'localhost'.
I know this might be a poor follow-up and not a FreeBSD issue, sorry! But
I am quite stucked with the configuration of net-snmp. I got it from ports
(version 5.0.6). I added the createUser line to /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf
like the HOWTO tells me to do
(http://www.net-snmp.org/FAQ.html#How_do_I_configure_SNMPv__users_),
restarted net-snmp but whatever I try I get no authorization eg. ('guest'
is the user I added with the createUser directive):
silakka# snmpget -u guest -A the password -v 3 -l noAuthNoPriv localhost
sysUpTime
Error in packet
Reason: authorizationError (access denied to that object)
I have also tried to run snmpconf script but there seems to be little to
do with users or communities other than the line:
rouser guest auth
I also tried with the snmpwalk (same auth error) and tried to configure
MRTG with cfgmaker but of course it can't retrieve any info.
So I would need some basic knowledge about the authentication with
net-snmp. Any brief ideas? :)
I would also like to specify a community ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) for MRTG to use.

Resolving domain names in KDE apps
Hello, I'm a new FreeBSD user with a performance issue. I've installed 5.1R and KDE. I've also installed Phoenix from the ports collection. When I'm using Konqueror or Phoenix to browse certain web sites they take forever to load. It appears the problem is associated with resolving domain names. While I wait (minutes!) for a problematic page to load, Phoenix will report in the notices bar at the bottom Resolving host There's no CPU or network bottleneck and the problem is reproducable in either browser with the same web sites. It seems also to relate to situations where one web page calls another for part of the content (e.g., www.vancouversun.com tries to load from ad.ca.doubleclick.net). If I open up a shell window and ask FreeBSD to resolve the same domain names with host they resolve instantly. So the problem has something to do with the way the package for KDE talks with BSD. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! ...Robert -- Robert Froese, RPF Assistant Professor, Forest Biometrics School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science Mighigan Technological University, Houghton MI. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The problem is with the doubleclick.net DNS servers which incorrectly fail to respond at all to queries for resource record types they don't know about. That means you have to sit and wait until the request times out, which takes something like 30s. The bbc.com web servers do the right thing, which is to send a negative response, and all in under 150 ms as you can see. Now, the RFC defining the resource record was published nearly 10 years ago, so there is really absolutely no excuse for doubleclick.net to be running anything so broken. However, if you're running a webserver using the Mozilla engine, the simple response is to right-click on the advert and select block images from this server. Note that there will be no problem resolving those names using host(1) as that does an A lookup (IPv4) by default. Try: % host -t ad.ca.doubleclick.net At this point you're maybe asking what a record is and why your web browser should be trying to look one up. The answer is that is the IPv6 equivalent of an A record: ie. it returns the IPv6 IP number corresponding to the hostname. The reason that Mozilla is doing an IPv6 lookup is that that is what the standards say to do nowadays: see getaddrinfo(3), RFC 2553 and http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/getaddrinfo.html (You may need to register in order to see that web page). Cheers, Matthew PS. The irony of it all is that resource records are themselves probably going to be phased out in favour of the A6 resource type in the not to distant future, which does essentially the same job, but has various other advantages beyond the scope of this e-mail to go into.

One more try at Frontpage Extensions, then I'll shut up
I am running 4.7 stable. I deinstalled mod_frontpage and apache13-fp. Was told I don't need both. Made sure the directories were removed, etc. cd /usr/ports/www/apache13-fp. make clean. Then make So far so good. make install, and it errors saying that frontpage 5.whatever is already installed. Tells to do a deinstall, etc. I have already done those steps, so I did a FORCE_PKG_REGISTER. make install and it runs to completion and automatically runs fp_install.sh. I answer the questions (don't setup any sub/user webs, no virtual hosts). Success at this stage. Launch Frontpage 2000 and try and publish a site. It says the server is not running frontpage extensions and I can't use http and must use ftp. I am well aware of the problems with fp extensions, etc. I have lost the battle with the VP of the company, and it is on our internal website which is not accessible from the internet. any help very appreciated, thanks, Darryl ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Newbie problems with X11, Xf86

Re: Adaptec 2400A update
I also have an Adaptec 2400A RAID controller and have problems when my system seems to be having a lot of random hard disk accesses. I upgraded the cache on the card to 128MB of Adaptec's preffered memory in hopes that the issue would subside, but it did not. I changed the write cache from write back to write through to see if there might be an issue with that. I upgraded to the latest I2O and SMOR. None of these seemed to work. My System will actually freeze when: * transferring data from a cd/dvd to harddisk and performing compression. (happens to be when I get the most disk access) - probability of freezing goes up drastically when I do something else at the same time that is hard disk intensive. eg: backing up data off a dvd/cd portupgrade -via listening to mp3's streaming off of my localhost For a while I've thought that it could be my system over heating. But when my machine overheats it just powers off abruptly. The freezing during high activity `seems` unrelated to heat. [ these abrupt power offs seem to have subsided since I got new heat syncs and got my AC fixed at my apartment :-D (DUH) LOL ] [ I am in the process of switching to water cooled ... as it is known that athlons run hot.. ] Something else that appears to be out of place (but i'm not sure) is that d0b3t0d0 always has a max speed of 10MHz no matter what drive I place there while all the others have a max speed of 50MHz. I have been searching the groups and mail archives for almost a year now. I can only find posts with similar problems but no resolution. Your post appears to be closer to my problems than others. There seems to be a small handful of ppl who have mentioned this problem. Maybe a bad batch of cards went out? or... the problem isn't frequent enough for some ppl to attribute it to a real problem? Or it could be the driver... I have no idea. I remember having all sorts of problems when I oringally wanted to put an OS on this machine and I didn't have a stable install until I set the cache to write- through (which for some reason is recommended for OS installs). Then afterwards I set the cache back to write-back (which was recommended any other time). ( from docs I have read scattered in remote places ) It appears we are not alone in our issue with the 2400A.

Boot problems with SCSI card
Hi, I can't boot my FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE (both with the stock kernel and with a self-compiled kernel), if my AdvanSys SCSI Host Adapter (ISA, ABP5140) is installed. The problem was also there while installing FreeBSD, but I simply removed the SCSI card during the installation. Without the card everything works perfectly. Here is some output during the boot process: (I had to type it off the screen, because it got never written to disk. Anybody got a solution for this?) [...] adv1: AdvanSys SCSI Host Adapter, SCSI ID 7, queue depth 16 adv1: ABP5140 at port 0x110 iomem 0xc8000-0xc irq 10 drq 5 on isa0 [...] Waiting 10 seconds for SCSI devices to settle [After about 1 minute] (probe6:adv1:0:6:0): Timed out (probe6:adv1:0:6:0): Attempting abort (probe6:adv1:0:6:0): Timed out (probe6:adv1:0:6:0): Resetting bus adv1: No longer in timeout [After about another minute] (probe5:adv1:0:5:0): Timed out (probe5:adv1:0:5:0): Attempting abort (probe5:adv1:0:5:0): Timed out (probe5:adv1:0:5:0): Resetting bus adv1: No longer in timeout After that output I waited about half an hour (!) and nothing happened. I don't think that it makes sense to wait any longer. There is only one SCSI drive attached to the SCSI card: An internal Yamaha CD-Writer (4416). Its SCSI ID is 3. Changing the ID just results in a slightly different output. For example if I change it to 6, the output is about timeouts on ID 3 and 5, instead of 6 and 5. With Writer on 4 the output is about ID 3 and 2. And so on. I tried every SCSI ID, but none works. The SCSI termination is also configured correctly. But I don't think that this is a hardware related problem, because the same hardware configuration worked perfectly under Linux. (And some time ago it worked under Windows.) Any ideas?

IPSEC with Dynamic IP addresses
Does anyone know of any documentation on how to do this ? I have searched through google and I find lots of references to people saying, use certificates but beyond that I havent found any actual documentation on how to do it. The setup is 30 client sites with dynamic IP addresses connecting to one headoffice that has a static IP address. The 30 client sites all have unique RFC 1918 based subnets behind them. The problem is how to do all the setkey business. The client end can find out the ip address its dynamically assigned and then do the appropriate setkey. But the headoffice cannot do the same thing as it has not built in way of knowing what the client endpoint is. I dont want to implement some additional protocol to send the HQ saying, Hi, I am IP address xxx, please contruct your setkey accordingly as it would be a security issue if not thought out correctly.

RE: Vinum on Root
I went back to the original root install method as per the book, and I got vinum working. Now, needed to change the size of the var volume, since during install I followed the book example and had var take up the rest of the disk, in my case all 187Gigs of it :). Was under the impression that it would be easy to resize or at least remove and create a new smaller var once the base is working. So, backed up the /var directory. Started the vinum prompt and used rm to remove the var subdisk, then remove the var plex and finally was able to remove the var volume. Now ran create vinum_var.conf - in this case the file was simply: volume var plex org concat sd len 1g drive rootdev So, did not use the offset, since vinum is now working and should know where the next 1g should come from. Is this a bad assumption? Well, the vinum create worked fine. Then copied the backed up /var contents to the new vinum volume. Did a reboot, and reboot failed. System requesting to run fsck. So, in single user mode did this and got the following error: ** /dev/vinum/var (NO WRITE) CANNOT READ BLK: 381244736 CONTINUE? Yes THE FOLLOWING DISK SECTORS COULD NOT BE READ: 381244736, 381244737, 381244738, 381244739, /dev/vinum/var: CANNOT FIGURE OUT FILE SYSTEM PARTITION So, what should I have done and is there a way to back out of this? By the way, it a great book, I'm just a little thick when it comes to vinum new unix. So, know I'm trying to do a lot right out of the gate - so really appreciate all the help I've been getting from everybody! Thanks again, Richard I. 1. setup unix partitions for swap, /, /usr, and /var 2. install FreeBSD5.1 3. go through the bsdlabel -e 3.1 modify the swap with the 281 offset 3.2 add vinum partition h: with the same size as c:, but with a 16 offset 4. create a vinum config file -- 4.1 map each sub-disk to the exact size and offset as the unix partitions II.1. setup unix partitions for swap and / 2. install FreeBSD5.1 3. go through the bsdlabel -e 3.1 modify the swap with the 281 offset 3.2 add vinum partition h: with the same size as c:, but with a 16 offset 4. create a vinum config file -- 4.1 create sub-disks using simply the size you want with no offset So, if I use Method I, as you specified in the book, can I then move those particular partitions (/, /usr, /var) around without worrying about the original unix partition layout (offsets etc)? So, the original /, /usr, /var sizes and offsets won't limit the location of the /dev/vinum/root, /dev/vinum/usr, /dev/vinum/var? They will for root, because you boot from the partition, not the volume. Also, you should understand that moving partitions means moving data. For the mirroring case, should the swap partitions be mirrored too? That depends on whether you want to still have a swap partition if a drive fails :-) Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

RE: Help PLEASE! on proper kernel config file to use serial portswith puc driver
All you need in your kernel config is 'device puc'. You already appear to have this in your config, as your system detected the adapter. You will have to sh MAKEDEV cuaan (where 0 n NUM_PORTS) to get the device nodes in your /dev directory. Alternately, since they have sequential minor numbers, you can make them yourself. 'mknod cuaa0 c 28,128 root:wheel' 'mknod cuaa1 c 28,129 root:wheel' 'mknod cuaa2 c 28,130 root:wheel' 'mknod cuaa3 c 28,131 root:wheel' 'mknod cuaa4 c 28,131 root:wheel' 'mknod cuaa5 c 28,131 root:wheel' You can also do this for the ttyd/ld/id nodes as well. I prefer making the nodes myself, but the MAKEDEV script will do the same thing. Good luck, Seth Henry OK, I've spent all night complaining kernels with no luck. I've read the man page for puc, I've read the man page for sio, I've looked at the code for puc, I've searched d Googlee, and STILL I can't get sio devices assigned to my PCI serial port card. It's detected as: puc0: Dolphin Peripherals 4036 port 0xfce0-0xfcff irq 11 at device 6.0 on pci0 sio4: type 16550A sio5: type 16550A But I feel certain I don't have the correct syntax in my kernel conf file for the sio ports I want to assign to this. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Nvidia Drivers + FreeBSD AGP + Big textures = Problems
Hi all , I'm getting problems with FreeBSD AGP driver and Nvidia DRVs. My system is composed by a Geforce3 Ti200 (by Creative) and an MSI KT4Ultra (KT400) . I've decided to use the FreeBSD AGP driver instead of the Nvidia one , but I'm getting the following problem: When I play to Enemy Territory (for now is the only game that I've tried) using HIGH_QUALITY options (1280x1024 + all 32bit +all effect to their max + texture compression NO ) after few time the textures start to flicker. The colors are strange , and after 1 minute the Video Card starts to draw the textures in the wrong place (for examples it draws the texture of a tank on the floor ) , after a couple of seconds all the screen starts to flicker , and then the system freeze. If I only enable the Texture compression (and so I reduce a bit the dimension of the textures) the problem disappears , and also if I reduce the quality of the textures (also reducing the size). I think that may be a memory allocation error in the AGP when it needs to write into the main memory , or something like this. Someone have my problem? Can someone solve it? I'd like to use the FreeBSD drv instead of the Nvidia one (I'd like to be more open that I can) Ah , Nvidia AGP drv solve the problem Thanks for your help Bye Marcello __ Yahoo!

Re: linux_llseek
Hmm. If I remember correctly, the linux_llseek() call is just a hack to add a wider-than-32-bit lseek(2) type call without touching anything already in the system. I may be confused, though. In any case, this doesn't really make sense, because it's really just a wrapper around a system call (at least, the normal lseek() is, and I can't imagine why any variant would be implemented much differently). The output may be some kind of artifact caused by the kernel dive, but I don't know why that would happen, either... maybe a -hacker would know. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: largest amount of memory a system can use

shell scripting while if string length != 0
for reasons best left unsaid, we need to pull in a file full of partial
commands, and run them via a shell script on occasion, removing each command as
we run it. Have managed to hack togetherthe following shell script, but and
stumped on something simple because of my lack of shell knowledge;
the file that holds out commands
file_o_commands
Server1 df -k
Server2 df -k
Server3 top | grep myprog
Server4 who
add new commands to the end of the file with
echo Server2 who /path/to/file_o_commands
then when we need to, run through the commands
file_to_run_stuff
#!/bin/sh
# get top command
DOCOMMAND=`head -n 1 /path/to/file_o_commands`
# remove that command
cat /path/to/file_o_commands | sed '1d' /path/to/file_o_commands
# run that command
ssh ${DOCOMMAND}
this works as intended with 1 exception, we need to add a while in there to loop
through the file and stop processing an exit when `head -n 1
/path/to/file_o_commands` does not return a line.
I almost want to borrow -n from if
while [ -n (DOCOMMAND=`head -n 1 /path/to/file_o_commands`) ] do
...rest of script...
done
Anyone care to enlighten me a bit?

Probably not, or it would have already been fixed.
Hopefully so, as the compiler toolchain is important. :-)
The warning against using FreeBSD with settings higher than -O1 (==
-O) is because it often causes bugs that are difficult to track down
(e.g. some aspect of the kernel just doesn't work properly).
OK. Can the existence of such problems be confirmed reliably, say by regression
testing? /usr/src/contrib/gcc/toplev.c is clear enough which specific
optimizations are involved at the different number levels:
if (optimize = 1)
{
flag_defer_pop = 1;
flag_thread_jumps = 1;
#ifdef DELAY_SLOTS
flag_delayed_branch = 1;
#endif
#ifdef CAN_DEBUG_WITHOUT_FP
flag_omit_frame_pointer = 1;
#endif
}
if (optimize = 2)
{
flag_cse_follow_jumps = 1;
flag_cse_skip_blocks = 1;
flag_gcse = 1;
flag_expensive_optimizations = 1;
flag_strength_reduce = 1;
flag_rerun_cse_after_loop = 1;
flag_rerun_loop_opt = 1;
flag_caller_saves = 1;
flag_force_mem = 1;
#ifdef INSN_SCHEDULING
flag_schedule_insns = 1;
flag_schedule_insns_after_reload = 1;
#endif
flag_regmove = 1;
}
if (optimize = 3)
{
flag_inline_functions = 1;
}
Couldn't one compile with cc -O -finline-functions, and then iterate through
-fcse-follow-jumps, -fgcse, etc and see which optimizations are safe?
