Apache 1.3.28 + Perl 5.8
Sorry, I don't mean to double-post/send. But I'm not sure if it went through the first time. I was just wondering if it was possible to make the port apache13 (/usr/ports/www/apache13) to use perl 5.8 (/usr/ports/lang/perl5.8) when compiling instead of perl 5.6 (/usr/ports/lang/perl). I have perl 5.8 installed on FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT, and wanted apache to use it instead of perl 5.6. If there is some way to make the apache port do this, could you please let me know.

Hello, 1) Increasing the swap-partitions size will be hard to impossible, I'm afraid 2) You probably don't need to, anyway. Did you watch how much of your swap space ever becomes utilized? You would have to push your machine really hard in order to make it run out of swap. Unless you need the swap space for crashdumps, 512MB swap should be *more* than sufficient. FreeBSD has excellent memory managment, and nowadays you don't need as much swap as you did some years ago. But you can specify different locations for crashdumps (if I am not mistaken).

On page 490 of FreeBSD Unleashed it references the -j4 parameter as a way to speed up the make buildworld process by spawning multiple simultaneous processes. The same thing is referenced in Chapter 20 of the FreeBSD Handbook. Is this now depreciated? Whether deprecated or not, many posts to this mailing list have said -j4 doesn't speed up make buildworld anyway, and that's been my experience. I'm sure it depends on your setup. To use -j effectively, try putting /usr/obj and /usr/src on different drives (ideally, on drives dedicated to the task, meaning a third drive for the OS itself) and testing with `time make buildkernel -jX` (where X is greater than 1). You should see a measurable decrease in compile time even on a single CPU system simply because you can keep both disks busier. On the other hand, if you have only a single CPU and a single disk and one or the other is maxed out it's unlikely that using -j will help (as you've seen). Chapter 18 of _Absolute BSD_ (Michael Lucas) has a description of tuning buildkernel. If you compare the output of `top` with `vmstat 5` while building without -j on a box with a reasonably fast CPU and a single disk you'll probably see that the CPU is idle for some percentage of the time, but the number of items under the 'b' column in vmstat is occassionally above 0. This means that the CPU has cycles available yet tasks are blocking on disk: classic disk IO bottlenecking. 'Course, as I say all this, building with -j on sparc64 is broken in -CURRENT at the moment so I'm not using -j for a while. Heh. It's handy when it works :-) I have /, /usr/src, and /usr/obj on 3 different HDs/controllers and using -j? is still 10-20% slower than not using it.. On my systems, it only speeded things up when I had more than 1 cpu.

Re: Shared libraries
Hello, First a question. Are you using the ports system, or are you experimenting with building from source directly? If the version you want is in ports, you should try that even if you have to apply a patch manually before building, because then all of the libtool mess will be taken care of for you. It's not for nothing that there are no less than 3 versions of libtool in the tree as of now, because not all ports compile with all versions. Therefore simply taking the most recent version of libtool is not guaranteed to work. I do not know the exact cause of the libtool error message you quote, but libtool from ports works for me. On Sat, Aug 16, 2003 at 07:00:13PM -0500, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -lz. Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -lcrypt. Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -lm. But I know about these. So if I had the shared versions of the libraries would that overcome my exim-mysql upgrade problems? From the error output you posted, the answer would be probably (It is missing some functions from libz) If so how or where do I get the shared library versions? You already have them. But the libtool does not find them for some reason. Maybe you could try: env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include -I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib -L/usr/local/lib make Hope this helps. -- Regards: Szilveszter ADAM Budapest Hungary ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

nfs mounts on FreeBSD 5.1

g++ vs. g++33: conflicts with qt 3.1.2 on FreeBSD 4.8
Hi,
FreeBSD 4.8 and Qt 3.1.2 compiled as is from the portscollection.
I have a brief Qt code:
#include qglobal.h
#include qstring.h
int main ()
{
QString s(mangle_failure);
return 0;
}
I compile this as follows:
${CC} MyQtCode.C -g -O -pthread -I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/X11R6/lib
-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib \
-lSM -lICE -lc -lm -lX11 -lqt-mt
Where CC is either /usr/bin/g++ or /usr/local/bin/g++33
With g++ this compiles fine.
But with g++33, I get an error, that says:
/var/tmp//ccI2rls3.o: In function `main':
/home/lahaye/MyQtCode.C:6: undefined reference to `QString::QString[in-charge](char
const*)'
/var/tmp//ccI2rls3.o: In function `main':

/usr/X11R6/include/qstring.h:771: undefined reference to `QStringData::deleteSelf()'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Any idea how I can fix this?
Thanks,

changed root alias/unusual system events
hi all i have a general question, probably no big deal. a while ago, i edited /etc/aliases and did 'new aliases', so that root's email account now points to one of my email accounts - i have logcheck set up as a cron job every fifteen minutes to notify me of unusual system events. ever since this happened, the great majority of emails to root have looked like -- Subject: my.hostname.com 08/19/03:14.00 system check X-UIDL: 4%\!![P/!lU=!!4=N!!

Re: Make buildworld failure
I have /, /usr/src, and /usr/obj on 3 different HDs/controllers and using -j? is still 10-20% slower than not using it.. On my systems, it only speeded things up when I had more than 1 cpu. Kent -j flag should speed things up on a multi-processor system quite a bit. It allows the work to be distributed on both processors. I have used it for buildworlds on freebsd 4.7 and 4.8 builds without a problem. Perhaps it depends what OS version you are using.. maybe 5.x has problems? In any rate, it works and is faster on my single processor 1.2 gig celeron with 256mb ram. (almost twice as fast actually) I follow the handbook during builds.

Re: help transistiong to Gnome 2

Re: Swappng in?

I had a rather huge task, and now my ps shows entries like: ... 9480 v2 IWs+ - 0:00.00 /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv2 I'd like to have it swapped back in, please. :) I read somewhere that if the memory strain has subsided, it would automatically be swapped in again. I do not see that happen automagically, though. To note: 1) Swapped out does not mean inoperative. For every executable, there usually some portion that does not reside in memory (paged out). Swapped out just means that *everything* is paged out. Swapped out is an old term, back in the days before virtual memory. Back then, when there were two processes going, when it was time to run a different one, the running program would be *entirely* written to disk, and the second one would be loaded. That's swapping. 2) The process will remain swapped out until it has something to do. When it does have something to do, it will swap back in again. If the process has nothing to do, there's not much point in wasting the RAM, when you might run that huge task again.

KDM won't start KDE
I just installed FreeBSD 4.8 on this machine and I set up kdm to run by changing /etc/ttys to: ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon xterm on secure When it boots I get: login: ..time.. kdm[127]: Abnormal helper termination, code 0, signal 73 But KDM seems to start up fine and I get the login screen, but when I login (as either root or a user) the login dialog disappears and I'm left with the KDE background and the X cursor. If I goto tty0 I now have the message: ..time.. kdm[130]: no modules loaded for `kde' service and in bot /var/log/XFree86.0.log and kdm.log it has this message repeated about 4 times a second: AUDIT: ..time..: 124 XFree86: client 2 rejected from local host I searched on google for the above messages and found some discussion about PAM problems. I looked at pam.conf and noticed that xdm and gdm were listed in there, but not kdm. So I added an identical section for kdm but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. If I remove the kdm stuff from ttys and get a command line login I can run startx and KDE comes up just fine. Was there something else I needed to configure for KDM to run correctly?

newbie questions (2) 5.1
hello again, first, i can't seem to get my modem to do anything, i think it's an irq conflict, but don't really want to mess around with the config files too much if i don't have to. in 5.1 sysinstall(8) there seems to be no option to change or confirm the info probed and sysinstall skips the kernel, not sure if that is the right expression, and sysinstall starts with the automatic defaults. i have attached the dmesg file. help, i am new to FreeBSD so i may need to be walked through the steps. second, i am having trouble starting my X manager from my user account, the root account starts fine with startx command, but when i try startx from the user account it takes me to x, not the prefered windows manager.

Re: Setting Default Execution Path for ssh Logins using Bash
Martin McCormick [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Where is the default execution path set for ssh logins who get a bash shell? Originally from login capabilities; it can be modified in a number of other places as described in the bash(1) manual. I thought I knew the answer until I tried to change it on a system that is giving everyone a path that needs /usr/local/etc in it. I *think* you're saying that the users don't have that directory in their path, but you'd like them to. The handbook mentions login.conf which I did modify with no effect. You ran cap_mkdb(1)? I think, in the past, I modified the .bash_profile or maybe the skeleton bash profile, but there should be a way to give all new logins and new accounts the correct path but I can't seem to find anything in the handbook that looks promising or anything that, when modified changes the path. That depends on whether the shells are login shells or not. I think you can set up ssh to handle it either way. If they are, then you can put configuration in /etc/profile (I think that's the file, anyway). But the login database should be the way to do it.

I'm running FreeBSD 5.1 - RELEASE and KDE 3.1.2.
Try Ctrl+Alt+F1, then login as root. I think kuser probably forgot to run
pwd_mkdb -- lucky for you :-)
If that doesn't work, follow the instructions for a forgotten root password
('tis in the FAQ). When you're in single user mode, try `grep root /etc/master.passwd'.
If something comes back, type `passwd root' to reset root's password. If nothing comes
back,
you'll have to add a line for root manually in /etc/master.passwd. Then run pwd_mkdb
/etc/master.passwd.
Whatever you do, type `exit' or Ctrl+D now.

Re: hard drive mount points damaged - reinstall to fix?

Since that time I have tried to put the 4.8 drive back into it's home machine, but it will not boot. This led me to booting from the cdrom version (4.0 as this is the newest I have) and attempting to reinstall, hoping that whatever went bad, would be overwritten new, leaving the non-system data that I want, untouched. The cdrom-install wants to use the existing /dev entries to reinstall system files, but since those entries are bad, the install fails. Is there a way to overwrite the /dev entries and mount points on the damaged drive, reinstall system files, but still preserve my user data?

Do I need to configure some other files? How exactly are you sending these messages? Do you use the /etc/mail/aliases file to list the addresses of all of the members of this mailing list, or by some other mechanism? Are you using any mailing list management software like Mailman (http://www.list.org/index.html) or listserv (http://www.lsoft.com/)? I doubt that the contents of the /etc/mail/access.db have any impact on your recipients seeing multiple copies of an e-mail. Sendmail should suppress duplicates -- that is if exactly the same recipient is mentioned multiple times in the envelope recipient list of a single message, then that recipient will only get one copy delivered. The envelope recipient list consists the names of the recipients after processing through the local aliases or virtuser or other tables, and need not have any resemblance at all to the recipients given in the message headers, although they generally start out as what's in the To: or Cc: or Bcc: lines of the message header. Generally when there are multiple recipients for a message all at the same remote site, sendmail will batch those together, and use a single transaction to send the message body once with envelope receipt-to set to just that sub-list of the addresses. However, the duplicate supression can be foiled in several ways: i) Multiple distinct addresses for the same person in the mailing list. In this case, you're doing exactly what that subscriber has requested, and (in an ideal world) they should fix things themselves before complaining to you. (Some mailing lists modify the messages they send to add a statement showing the address that message was sent to, but that defeats the mechanism to avoid sending the message multiple times to the same site.) ii) Some of the addresses on your list actually funnel into other lists or mail aliases at other sites, outside either your or the addressees' control. You'ld have to contact the admins of the sites in question to sort that problem out. iii) Your mailing list software is actually taking the list of addressees and either sending the message to each address individually or dividing the addresses into groups in order to send them. In this case, there's nothing sendmail can do to suppress duplicates -- you should curate your mailing list carefully to ensure that addresses aren't duplicated in the list. If you examine /var/log/maillog after sending out to your mailing list, you should be able to work out if your message is being sent as in (iii) -- each message would have a separate message ID in that case.

38400 serial boot console through all stages of boot? (repostingfrom sparc64 list)
Howdy, I originally posted this to the sparc64 mailing list and haven't received a response. It occurs to me that this might not be sparc specific and so I'm reposting it on [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's a -CURRENT sparc64 system, so I'm not sure that -questions@ covers all the territory either :-) I have the serial boot console and a login getty working, and I wanted to move them to 38400 from the default 9600.

I'm running FreeBSD 5.1 - RELEASE and KDE 3.1.2.
Try Ctrl+Alt+F1, then login as root. I think kuser probably
forgot to run pwd_mkdb -- lucky for you :-)
If that doesn't work, follow the instructions for a forgotten root
password ('tis in the FAQ). When you're in single user mode, try
`grep root /etc/master.passwd'. If something comes back, type
`passwd root' to reset root's password. If nothing comes back,
you'll have to add a line for root manually in /etc/master.passwd.
Then run pwd_mkdb /etc/master.passwd. Whatever you do, type `exit'
or Ctrl+D now.
I had a friend that had something similar happen to him after
installing kuser, it hadn't actually deleted the root account, but it
did expire it (which disallowed root logins). Took him quite a while
to figure out.

Re: NIS stealing low-numbered ports?
Aaron, I am having similar trouble with 5.1. For me, rpc.lockd is eating up all my low (privileged) udp ports. You can tell the system to use a different range for low ports. Use the sysctl command and tweak the net.inet.ip.portrange.lowlast variable. By default, it sets the lower bound for privileged ports to 600. You might increase it past 631 to ensure that no process snatches it up. Of course, you would have fewer privileged ports, which might create problems on a busy machine running NIS (which is the situtation that brought this problem to my attention). Cheers, Eric Aaron Mandel wrote: I'm running 4.7, using both NIS and cups. There has now twice been a problem where printing via cups started failing because cups couldn't open UDP port 631 to talk to the cups server, and both times, when I looked, there was an sshd belonging to some random (logged-in) user claiming that port. I found a short thread in the list archives from a few months ago saying that this was normal behavior with NIS, but shouldn't it be taking higher-numbered ports? The range of ports it uses seems to be about 600-1024; if there's a way to configure those numbers, we haven't found it.

I see that Berkeley dropped their requirement on the advertising clause which makes FreeBSD code compatible with the GPL. The main FreeBSD licence doesn't include the advertising clause. However, much of FreeBSD's source still includes the advertising clause. For example src/sys/net/if.h and src/sys/net/radix.h in source checked out of CVS a few days ago. Most of these are for Berkeley, although there are a few for other individuals. What is the licensing position? Code that is copyrighted by the Regents has the license change, everything else does not. Many FreeBSD contributors will be happy to drop the clause if you just ask, though.
