DAT drives
Okay, probably a dumb question but I can't readily find an answer in the archives.. I just picked up a (used) surestore C1533A (thats an HP device) and am having some problems getting it work quite right. I've got the dip switches set correctly (I was able to find at least 3 corroborating pages for that) but can't manage to get it to write correctly. It will only write about 50 megs using 0a as dump flags. Trying to specify -B and estimating compression got me to about 200 but it's a 4 gig drive. All it wants to do is write a few blocks, sit and sputter for a second or two, write a few more, (repeat for about 15 minutes) and then tell me it's at EOM well before it should be. There are notes in the hardware compatability section that says this drive has been made to work onder FreeBSD so I know at least that it's not simply an unsupported device. Any suggestions from the folks in the audience? -Wayne ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

minor `cp -R` question
Hi, I have a quick question about the cp command and recursively copying a directory. If I type: $ cp -R /foo/file/ ~/ I get in my home directory a file called "file". If I type: $ cp -R /foo/file ~/ I get in my home directory a directory called "foo" and a file called "file". Can someone explain why the trailing slash cp to behave differently? My user shell is pdksh and the root shell is csh. I have pdksh set to use "complete-list" and csh to use "autolist". Is this behavior just something unique to FreeBSD? I tried the same on my OpenBSD box and the two commands worked the same and created a directory with a file in it. I also don't remember these working differently on linux. Do I possibly have something setup wrong with my shells?

Question on PS/2 Wheelmouse through KVM
Hey all. Strange but not totally surprising behavior, anyone have any ideas? System: IBM Netfinity 4500R 1G RAM 2x 667MHz PIII CPUs Logitech Trackman Wheel PS/2 Mouse and KB through Belkin 8 port rackmount KVM Running recent 5.X current SMP kernel When I was running the mouse via USB/not through the KVM, the middle (wheel) button worked fine, as did the wheel after a bit of tweaking on moused and the X config file. Via PS2 and through the KVM, it appears there's nothing I've found yet that will enable the wheel, although the wheel 'button' itself works. Running moused in debug mode in a terminal using -z4 shows buttons numbered 'normally' 1-3 from left to right and gives corresponding output for each button being depressed...however, scrolling the wheel gives no output, which I'm assuming it should be doing for a positive or negative movement value. The same setup works fine, mouse wheel included, through the same KVM to another SMP Linux system, which has run RHAS2.1, 3.0, and now WhiteBox Linux (free 'clone' of RH3ES), without any issues, so it doesn't appear to be the KVM, although I've seen historically that BSD seems to have more than it's share of KVM input issues Any ideas on what to try next? Opera in X without a scroll mouse is like Windows claiming it's secure- it's just wrong :-( Scott ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
shutdown and reboot
Hi, I've had experience with RH Linux but am not very familiar with FreeBsd. For some reason, I cannot get the machine to reboot or to shutdown. I looked at the man pages for the shutdown command, and, for rebooting, typed #shutdown -r now. but I still have the same problem as I did with the reboot command: ... Saving firewall state tables:.

I briefly looked through the TOC of the handbook but could not find the page I was looking for. However, I know I've seen it somewhere. The basic procedure is to have your fast machine do the make buildworld and make buildkernel steps and then mount /usr/src and /usr/obj from the fast machine to the slow machine. Then do the make installkernel and make installworld steps on the slow machine, thus copying the files that were built on the fast machine.

dynamic link problem
Howdy list, I've got an old copy of Wordperfect (now deleted from ports) that I use at work. When I run the program, I get this output: % xwp /usr/local/lib/corel/wpbin/xwp: can't load library 'libXt.so.6' Exit 16 Obviously a dynamic link problem, so I run ldd on it: % ldd -a /usr/local/lib/corel/wpbin/xwp libXt.so.6 => not found libX11.so.6 => not found libXpm.so.4 => not found libm.so.5 => not found libc.so.5 => /usr/lib/libc.so.5 (0x28749000) OK. Fair enough. It can't find the first four libraries. But why? libXt.so.6 is listed by ldconfig: % ldconfig -r | grep libXt.so.6 140:-lXt.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 So are the other three: % ldconfig -r | grep libX11.so.6 162:-lX11.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 % ldconfig -r | grep libXpm.so.4 143:-lXpm.4 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4 % ldconfig -r | grep libm.so.5 712:-lm.5 => /usr/compat/linux/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib/libm.so.5 So how do I fix this?

A Challenge... NAT for PPP dial in user
Hey all, I've been playing around with this for a while. I have a FreeBSD 4.8 box set as a gateway on my home LAN. I have 1 pc downstairs, and a few dial up users... FreeBSD box has 2 network cards, 1 for internal, 1 for external internet using cable & 1 56k modem. Very simple problem... when a dial in user connects to the FreeBSD gateway/router using PPP, NAT stops working on the PC downstairs and won't work on the dial in PC either... I have complete LAN access (telnet, ssh, samba, ping etc) on both the dial in PC and the downstairs PC, but somewhere my config is preventing everyone from being able to access the internet at once. In rc.conf, I have my Gateway_enable=YES, defaultrouter=192.168.1.1, router_enable=yes, proxyarp_all=yes... PPP.conf is simple... enable pap enable passwdauth set ifaddr 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.199 255.255.255.0 add HISADDR 255.255.255.0 MYADDR accept dns set dns 203.2.75.132 enable proxy In natd.conf interface tl0 sameports yes dynamic yes I'm running a firewall, but it is open for the TUN0 interface... I also have a divert natd (8668) allow all from any to any out via tl0 All other PC's on the LAN are windows clients... the one downstairs I was able to just set a default gateway and it was up and running on the internet, unfortunately it isn't done like that on a dial in setup on windows... I can't use DHCP for the clients, as I'm not supposed to have internet sharing running... Do I need to have an add statement in the PPP.conf, or do i have to enable proxyall rather than enable proxy?? Worst thing about this is I can't find enough doco on it on the net... I'll write my own when I get it done... Thanks D _ E-mail just got a whole lot better. New ninemsn Premium.

Yet it seems I should be ditching 5.6 and using 5.8.2, from > what I read. May not directly apply to OP... If two versions of Perl are required (& as the situation is currently), install one port at the default location for which modules must work. Install the other perl port, for which modules are not needed, in a non-default version. If done in that order, the second port would pick up the module path from the first. Thus allowing the use of almost all the modules, except XS ones. Just a workaround until something better happens... - Parv -- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

NATd newbi Problem.
Hello everyone, Its my first time to setup NAT and I wish someone to fix my bugs here. I have a DSL Router Modem connected to Internet and FreeBSD box as follow DSL-Router <--> FreeBSD HUB <-> 98,XP clients DSL Router = 192.168.0.1 rl0= 192.168.0.2 rl1= 192.168.0.3 Problem is: rl0 cannot ping rl1 so clients cannot see rl1 I thought reason cuz both of the NIC's are in same class ? maybe? So I changed the IP of rl1 to match 192.0.192.2 in this case rl0 (192.168.0.2) CAN see both ROUTER and rl1 (192.0.192.2) But clients cannot see rl0 because they start to see rl1 class because they are in same class. in both cases BSD server can access thhe Internet normally because its in same router class and correct conf. well, im missed here. rl0 and rl1 should be in same class? if yes? why they couldnot see each other when they have same class? should they be in diffrent claasses? if YES then clients how they will see rl0 class? what rl1 should be in rc.conf? This machine will act a gateway for clients cuz we need to controll internet access.

The difference is that pkg_delete(1) will delete packages by matching the name and version number stored in /var/db/pkg, whereas make deinstall deletes the all packages installed from a particular ports directory where the same $PREFIX setting was used to install as is currently in force. Unless you're in the habit of installing multiple copies of ports/pkgs using different $PREFIX settings, that generally comes out to be the same thing.

NAT Address Redirects
On my own servers which are all FBSD machines, I use the classic method of redirecting an IP address from a Gateway machine to a main host and its vhosts located on an Internal Machine like so: redirect_address 192.168.0.5 123.xxx.xxx.101 <-- main host ...then Apache sends any requests to a vhost to its own IP: 192.168.0.5 -> 123.xxx.xxx.102 192.168.0.5 -> 123.xxx.xxx.103 However, on an ISP where I manage servers, we have a new FBSD Gateway set that is working fine for the internal FBSD machines behind that GW, just as above. However, there are also some Window Servers to be setup behind the Gateway and I was asked if I could do the redirect of several public IPs to a single Internal IP address as follows (the Win servers run IIS -- not Apache: Redirect from FBSD GW to single Window Server (all of the internal IPs are on one machine): redirect_address 192.168.0.5 123.xxx.xxx.101 redirect_address 192.168.0.6 123.xxx.xxx.102 redirect_address 192.168.0.7 123.xxx.xxx.103 I have never seen this setup before but, I tried it and it works -- that is until we pull out the Gateway ad0 drive and put it into another FBSD machine. This is an experiment to see if the main GW were to go down, could we pull the HD (or a clone HD) and move it to another machine to get right back up and running as before. We have tried this exercise on several identical FBSD machines and find that the redirects no longer work. Eventually, the one FBSD internal machine on this new network test will start resolving, but not the Window stations -- although even here, the FTP will work, but not the port 80 webs on the Window machines. Moving back to the original machine works again. We have tried to isolate anything that might be the slightest way different to figure out why the addresses no longer redirect to port 80 and I have pretty much concluded that IIS does not handle things like Apache does and that we cannot redirect as in the FBSD-->Windows example above. Many times, I have successfully switched GW machines using the same HD and things worked as before. This allows me to bring down a GW machine to do maintenance while keeping all of the services running on another machine. Admittedly, I have not run Windows servers and am unfamiliar with IIS and highly suspect this as the culprit. Sorry for the length of this one, but was as brief as possible. Any suggestions greatly appreciated as this put us at the crossroads of whether to switch to FBSD as a GW/NAT/FW/Router. Thanks & Happy Holidays! Best regards, Jack L.

Just be careful on your terminology. The neither the 'a' nor the 'e' partition is a slice. In your example above, the slice is '3' which has in it a partition called 'e'. You are using the terms backwards. So, it is disk 1, slice 3, partition e above. Otherwise I think the answer is correct. It is overall better to set up your disk so that your root and boot partition is 'a' in whichever slice you boot from. For many things this is the default and there may be some things that just plain assume this.

Question about static libraries and compression
I have a problem with linking: When I invoke make, I always give it the -DNOSTATIC option on the commandline to save space. However, this doesn't work. My system still builds static libraries. Or are the binaries linked dynamically, and the static libs are there for nothing? I guess it's safe to delete them, right? Everything is self-compiled, I do not use binary packages at all. Also, I read that the kernel can execute gzipped a.out binaries directly, can the same thing be done for ELF? I need a really small system, because I want to boot and run it from CD-ROM.

NAT Redirect Ext address to multiple Int IPs on single machine
On my own servers which are all FBSD machines, I use the classic method of redirecting an IP address from a Gateway machine to a main host and its vhosts located on an Internal Machine like so: redirect_address 192.168.0.5 123.xxx.xxx.101 <-- main host ...then Apache sends any requests to a vhost to its own IP: 192.168.0.5 -> 123.xxx.xxx.102 192.168.0.5 -> 123.xxx.xxx.103 However, on an ISP where I manage servers, we have a new FBSD Gateway set that is working fine for the internal FBSD machines behind that GW, just as above. However, there are also some Window Servers to be setup behind the Gateway and I was asked if I could do the redirect of several public IPs to a single Internal IP address as follows (the Win servers run IIS -- not Apache: Redirect from FBSD GW to single Window Server (all of the internal IPs are on one machine): redirect_address 192.168.0.5 123.xxx.xxx.101 redirect_address 192.168.0.6 123.xxx.xxx.102 redirect_address 192.168.0.7 123.xxx.xxx.103 I have never seen this setup before but, I tried it and it works -- that is until we pull out the Gateway ad0 drive and put it into another FBSD machine. This is an experiment to see if the main GW were to go down, could we pull the HD (or a clone HD) and move it to another machine to get right back up and running as before. We have tried this exercise on several identical FBSD machines and find that the redirects no longer work. Eventually, the one FBSD internal machine on this new network test will start resolving, but not the Window stations -- although even here, the FTP will work, but not the port 80 webs on the Window machines. We have tried to isolate anything that might be the slightest way different to figure out why the addresses no longer redirect to port 80 and I have pretty much concluded that IIS does not handle things like Apache does and that we cannot redirect as in the FBSD-->Windows example above. Many times, I have successfully switched GW machines using the same HD and things worked as before. This allows me to bring down a GW machine to do maintenance while keeping all of the services running on another machine. Admittedly, I have not run Windows servers and am unfamiliar with IIS and highly suspect this as the culprit. Sorry for the length of this one, but was as brief as possible. Any suggestions greatly appreciated as this put us at the crossroads of whether to switch to FBSD as a GW/NAT/FW/Router. Thanks & Happy Holidays! Best regards, Jack L.

This is pretty much the right thing to do. You need to delete the perl-5.6.1_15 port, *and then re-install perl-5.8.2_2* and run 'use.perl port' again. That will make perl-5.8.2 your default perl. Use pkgdb -F to fix up the dependencies. Then you may feel the need to re-install all perl ports which have installed anything under /usr/local/lib/perl5/{,site_perl/}5.6.1 in order to keep everything tidy -- that'll be pretty much every port with a p5- preffix, plus a few oddballs tike rrdtool, pdflib, ImageMagick -- judicious use of pkg_which(1) will help you there.

Straightening out perl
Maybe this belongs in the -ports list... I dunno. Anyways, saw a few messages recently that prompted me to check my perl situation: su-2.05b# pkg_info | grep perl- perl-5.6.1_15 Practical Extraction and Report Language perl-5.8.2_2Practical Extraction and Report Language And wouldn't you know, everything that depends on perl depends on 5.6 currently. Yet it seems I should be ditching 5.6 and using 5.8.2, from what I read. So I'm wondering how to best straighten this out. As things stand now, "use.perl port" sticks me with 5.6. And I can't use portupgrade to fix this because alas, both versions are installed from ports (ports/perl5 and ports/perl5.8) and are considered "separate" and individually up-to-date. One option would be to do a pkg_delete -f on 5.6 then use portdb -F to fix the dependencies. Not sure if that's enough or if I need to rebuild. And if I need to rebuild the dependencies, how could I easily handle the list in one-pass? Right now it all depends on 5.6 which I'd be deleting. I could whack 5.6, repoint all dependencies to 5.8, then tell it to forcibly rebuild everything that depends on 5.8... but I don't know if this is the right thing to do. Or maybe I'm wrong and I should be keeping 5.6 because 5.8.2 will destroy things horribly and cause much breakage and woe. Eh. Advice? This seems to be a FAQ but searching/reading through the last several months of messages didn't reveal a definitive answer.

IPFW Rule set question...
Hi everyone, Thanks to those who take the time to read and reply to these emails. I have a strange issue regarding my firewall (IPFW)... I have enabled SSH, TELNET and FTP on my freeBSD 4.8 box at home... it is dual homed, 2 NICs one for the internal LAN one running my cable modem. Everything works fine on the internal side. When accessing the box using any of those apps from work, the system looks to briefly connect and then returns a "Connection Lost" or "Connection closed by remote host error". The command setup to allow in access is as follows... 820 allow log tcp from any to me 22 limit src-addr 4 in recv tl0 setup 830 allow log tcp from any to me 23 limit src-addr 4 in recv tl0 setup when this didn't work I added another command at the start of the ruleset to just let everything in from a particular IP address range... 202 allow ip from 203.10.10.0/24 to any however this produced the same error... It wasn't until I allowed all from any to any that I was able to connect... When checking out the security log, it tells me that rule 820 is allowing access to my computer at home... Ruleset is attached completely below /sbin/ipfw -q -f flush # Set rules command prefix # The -q option on the command is for quite mode. # Do not display rules as they load.

This bug (PR 55473) was definitely present in 5.1-release and I have seen reports that it was still present in 5.1-current within the last few months. Danny Pansters <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has sent me email suggesting that ACPI problems are the reason 5.2-RC1 will not boot on my machine (which has an ICH5 SATA controller configured in native mode). I have not been able to verify this since I can't do the install without disabling disks that are essential to my system. (Is there a way to disable ACPI before the kernel boots when booting from 5.2 kern/mfsroot floppies?) I don't know if this is the same bug or whose "fault" it is. PR 55473 associates the problem with some flavors of AWARD BIOS. I do know that this can be a really nasty nasty problem if you have it. Enough people seem to be affected by this bug that it some special attention should be given to it before 5.2 is released. (Assuming of course that the bug has not already been fixed.)

You can do "static NAT" -- use the 'redirect_address' option for natd(8). This will let you map an Internet address on your external network through to an internal machine: eg. natd -redirect_address 192.168.1.1 209.20.215.31 This will allow external machines to access a server on your internal network. Your internal machines should be set up so that they use just the internal addresses -- you can't route the packets from internal machines through natd on the external interface as you describe. It's just the way that natd works, I'm afraid. > If this question is too arcane, please refer me to the correct > documentation. I don't even know where to start.

This does depend somewhat on how you set up the roaming access to your network. If you create a VPN tunnel into your private network, then the roaming users will see your internal servers just fine: no renumbering necessary. However you will have to solve the initial problem of making the network connections required to set up the VPN. > Split DNS obviously can handle all other settings such as mail, time, web > and so forth. Handling the DNS settings themselves, which are by IP > address, proves more difficult. Ah -- this is what DHCP is for. You can run DHCP on your internal network to configure machines there, and also have a default lease which dhclient(8) will fall back to when it can't find a DHCP server -- as the man page says: A mobile host which may sometimes need to access a network on which no DHCP server exists may be preloaded with a lease for a fixed address on that network. When all attempts to contact a DHCP server have failed, dhclient will try to validate the static lease, and if it succeeds, will use that lease until it is restarted.

No, nothing in that area. At the moment I think it has to do with the usb code in the 5.2 kernel. The problem is I don't have an idea how to further debug.

Most of the tools you're referring to use the GNU readline library. The manpage (readline(3)) _claims_ that it offers a vi-style editing mode.
