xine and arts

2004-01-28 Thread Fridtjof Busse
Hi
I recently switched from linux to FreeBSD and now I'm experiencing a 
problem with xine (from ports) under KDE (from 
packages) on FreeBSD 5.2:
If xine uses arts (OSS works fine) for audio-output, it doesn't 
terminate correctly.
Even after I closed the xine-window, the process still runs and consumes 
CPU. I have to kill it with 'kill -9' although ps marks it as runnable.
I contacted the xine-team, but they don't have anyone to check/reproduce 
this since their BSD-guy doesn't run arts/KDE.
arts-output works fine for other applications (noatun, mplayer etc.), so 
it's not a general problem.
Could maybe anyone of you verify this?
Thanks.

RE: Default route problem

2004-01-28 Thread Martin and Belinda Richardson
Thanks guys,
boy do I feel like an idiot, I did as greg suggested (cd /etc, grep -r
192.168.55.8 *)
and it said that it was in /etc/rc.conf So I have a look, ee
/etc/rc.conf, NOT there! so I tried vi noticed that all the tildes weren't
there on the left so I paged down and find all the sysinstall generated
delta's after half a page or so of blank
space(defaultrouter=192.168.55.8). So a lesson for other idiots out there
PAGE DOWN!

Thanks guys for all your help, this is why I use BSD/Linux.

I am also inclined to believe, like Luke, that the only place to set the

 these pearls of wisdom:

  Hi everyone,
  I am having a problem with a gateway I am building for a friend. I
have
  initially set the box up on my home network and have set this box to use
 my
  gateway temporarily while I fetch some ports etc. Now that I have
removed
 it
  from my network, and edited /etc/rc.conf to set it up to act as a
gateway,
  it STILL sets the default route to my old gateway. I cant find any
config
  file that says add default route or anything. I have not set
 defaultroute
  in /etc/rc.conf, and it is set to NO in /etc/defaults/rc.conf!
  If I use /stand/sysinstall to configure the interface, I notice that
there
  is a value already there for the ipV4 gateway (my gateway). deleting
this
  here does not work. There must be a file somewhere that I have not seen
  causing me the trouble. Please help!
 

 AFAIK the only place you need to make changes is /etc/rc.conf then
 either reboot or sh /etc/netstart and you should be good to go.  You
 could manually add that route though whilst the machine is up,
 # route add default 192.168.X.X and that should be OK too. what is the
 output of netstat -rn   ?

sendmail + spamassassin on FreeBSD 5.2

2004-01-28 Thread RJ45

Hello,
I am running latest sendmail + latest spamassassing thru the
spamass-milter mechanism on FreeBSD.
When users send mail it keeps like 10-15 seconds before the mail is sent
and this is annoyign for users.
I inspected the sendmail logs and I saw that spamassassin keeps mroe than
10 second to process a single message for spam.
My machine is a Dell poweredge 2650 with dual xeon 2.4GHz.
I disabled rbl checks in spamassassin.
Anyoien noticed this problem ?
I don;t know how to increase spamassassin log level, anyway I would like
to disable SPAM checks for mails which originate from my LAN, but I can;t
figure out how to do it.
Anyone had tried it before?
thanks

Hi, Nicolas:

I just set up something similar. Not sure what kind of configuration 
that you're looking for, but here's an article that helped me a lot in 
setting up my PC. It's an article on setting up a firewall/gateway using 
PPPoE..

On a side note, setting up PPPoE in FreeBSD was infinately simpler then 
my old Linux box..

That aside, this as well as the IPFW HOWTO got me all setup and running..

Good luck!

Unless you insist on using the gui (say btdownloadgui), you could

that you have to run stuff from a terminal/xterm.

alternative for CUPS spooler

Hi list,

After view hours trying to get my printer running with CUPS, I gave it 
up and want an alternative.  I have a usb postscript printer (Brother), 
and a PPD file. The hardware part is working, I just need a spooler, so 
the clients can send print jobs. What spoolers do you people using?

If anyone interested in my painfull CUPS experience, here is the

In order to use Brother driver, I need foomatic-rip and 
foomatic-gswrapper (www.linuxprinting.org) In order to get 
foomatic-gswrapper to work, I have to install ESP Ghostscript. But 
there is no port for ESP Ghostscript and it wouldn't compile on my

than messages and auth.log.

here is what I have for /var/log/messages

Re: alternative for CUPS spooler

2004-01-28 Thread Ksenia Marasanova

Install (or reinstall) the port in /usr/ports/print/cups-pstoraster, 
which
will install ghostscript-7.07 and espgs-7.05.6. The later is ESP 
Ghostscript.
So no need for compiling ESP from scratch by yourself.

Does that help to get you back to cups?
Yes, thank you! I guess, the rule number one is: there is always a 
port. The rule number two: if you can't find it, try harder :)))
Okay, now I am back to cups. But it's not working yet.. 
/var/log/cups/error_log had no errors... do I actually have to modify 
foomatic-gswrapper to use espgs?


Good luck!

1) You are right: Installing CUPS can be a pain in the bum. If
you need it for some reasons I can forward you some emails, where the
usual problems are discussed.
2) If you have got a real postscript printer you can have a look
at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook - there is a section about
setting  up printers manually.
3) If you are looking for a program which takes care of the setup
problems for you, there is an alternative to Cups:
/usr/ports/print/apsfilter . Mind: Apsfilter asks you for some
options during installation. If you, p.ex., choose latex support
the build will take some time.

Good Luck,

Uli.

swap usage

Hi.

Is there a way to make FreeBSD to free the space on swap?

Mem: 235M Active, 108M Inact, 100M Wired, 23M Cache, 60M Buf, 32M Free
Swap: 500M Total, 256K Used, 500M Free

The usage of swap is growing during uptime of the server, and even if I
free some additional memory (by killing some apps) the swap file usage
still grows with time.

Dynamic Router IP.

2004-01-28 Thread Marwan Sultan

Hello everyone,

   I have FreeBSD 4.8-R as a NATd ipfw enable behind a DSL router.
   The router calling the internet and giving the connection 2the bsd box.
   BSD box does the rest for my LAN.

   I redirect the port 22 from the router to my FreeBSD LAN box. 192.168.1.1

   The problem is DSL each time calls the internet has a new 'real IP'
   so I cannot know the ip IF im at home, then i cannot access the box from
   outside the LAN.

   Question is:
   Is there a way to configure the FreeBSD box to send an auto email for
   me each time the router has a new 'real IP' ?

   For sure by somehow the BSD box knows about the new ip for router.

   Thank you very much in advance.

natd

2004-01-28 Thread Peter Rosa
Hello,

please, is there possibility to have natd configured to NAT two interfaces ?
We have a network divided into two subnets, both will have their own
interface in our router.
Is it possible to have -n rl0 -n rl1 -dynamic as natd options in rc.conf ?

 The usage of swap is growing during uptime of the server, and even if I
 free some additional memory (by killing some apps) the swap file usage
 still grows with time.

Of course, what you posted doesn't indicate this.  Swap is used by
processes, so killing the process that is actually using the swap will
cause it to be reclaimed.  If you think something else is going on,

Why send a email, when you can go to www.no-ip.com and register yourself a 
dynamic dns entry, and thus you can alwaus access your freeBSD box using 
marwan.no-ip.com or something similar. After registering you just need to 
install a daemon that automatically updates the ddns every now and then. I 
use this for the dial up gateway at home so I can check up on now the box 
is holding up with in its harsh enviornment (i.e. my brothers) - and it 
works great.

Re: The fear of cvsupping my ports...

I cvsup the ports-all megacollection. In fact, I use the default ports-supfile, and 
connect to the nearest mirror site. I did use the default refuse file earlier as well 
(the one refusing the chinese, vietnamese, etc. branches), but decided to leave that 
one out too in order to eliminate any errors that may cause.

What I haven't done, come to think of it, is try to use another mirror. If for nothing 
else, then to eliminate that as the cause of the error.

 Sounds like you are missing the /usr/ports INDEX file or it's messed
 up big time. Try cvsup-ing the posts-base category. The INDEX file
 is part of that category. The ports-base category only contains the
 things that make the ports application function and will not effect
 any of your port config files you have previous downloaded to your
 hard drive. With out an current ports-base you have no bases from
 which to debug other ports problems.  If you do not know how to do
 this, contact me back and I will give you instructions.

Internal cvsup server?

2004-01-28 Thread stan
I'm supporting a fair number of FreeBSD machines that live behind a very
restrictive corporate firewall. 

I finally managed to get the powers that be to agree to open up the port
for cvsup, but they want to limit it to one IP address. Actually this is
probably not a bad solution.

My plan is to set up an internal cvsup master machine, and cvsup the
internal machines from it. I'm only interested in the STABLE branch, and
really on the latest version of that.

Can anyone point me to some documentation on how to go about setting this
up?

My knowledge level is very basic here, as I have only used cvsup, never set
it up.

Thanks.

Setting up X with an unknown monitor and video adapter

2004-01-28 Thread John Adams
Hi, folks,

	I've moved on up to 4.9 and, along with my continuing mouse problems, 
am a bit scared of setting up X. I've got an older monitor, an Apple 
Multiple Scan 1705, and a video adapter that doesn't appear to be in 
the supported list, an Intel 82810. (There's an Intel 810, but not an 
82810, in the setup menu.) The warnings I see about possibly frying 
monitors by getting scan rates wrong have me a bit spooked. The manual 
for the monitor gives various scan rates for various modes of 
operation--I was thinking about putting a range in that was a bit lower 
on the low end than the lowest listed entry, and a bit lower on the 
high end than the highest listed entry.

	Any thoughts? I wouldn't mind explicit instructions, but guided 
self-help would be ideal.

Thanks,

	John A

and after a view seconds the machine locks up completely. This also hold

I am running FreeBSD 5.2 on a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo A Notebook. I would

BTW: I know that DMA works for this drive. I have got it working at least

Any help is appreciated. Here follows some output from dmesg:

Re: Internal cvsup server?

2004-01-28 Thread Ruben de Groot
On Wed, Jan 28, 2004 at 08:38:57AM -0500, stan typed:
 I'm supporting a fair number of FreeBSD machines that live behind a very
 restrictive corporate firewall. 
 
 I finally managed to get the powers that be to agree to open up the port
 for cvsup, but they want to limit it to one IP address. Actually this is
 probably not a bad solution.
 
 My plan is to set up an internal cvsup master machine, and cvsup the
 internal machines from it. I'm only interested in the STABLE branch, and
 really on the latest version of that.
 
 Can anyone point me to some documentation on how to go about setting this
 up?
 
Look for the cvsup-mirror port. It'll do what you want.

Ruben

 My knowledge level is very basic here, as I have only used cvsup, never set
 it up.
 
 Thanks.

mysqlcc

2004-01-28 Thread Brian H
In trying to install the mysqlcc package I get the following error.
pkg_add mysqlcc-0.9.3.tgz
pkg_add: could not find package Mesa-3.4.2_2 !

I tried to install the mesagl port, but it looks like the version is too 
high
anyways.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]/usr/ports/graphics/mesagl  make
===  Mesa-5.0.1_2 is unnecessary because libGL and libGLU come with XFree86 
4.0
and higher.

Any thoughts?

Re[2]: Problem with foppy drive

2004-01-28 Thread
Hello Friend
I could not write you earlier because I didn't have Internet so i write
you now.

First time i made default BOIS setup
Than i booted FreeBSD when the table with different boot options
appered i choosed (There is a devil on the right part of the display):
  Boot FreeBSD with ACPI disable
(it has second number)
after it logged in as root
and found that there is fd0-file in /dev and i can mount floppy
drive (i mounted it)and it works good.

Than i rebooted my PC and booted FreeBSD as it does itself (default)
and found that there is no fd0

So whan i boot FreeBSD with ACPI disable it's possible to use floppy.

That's all.

 You only Nat the interface facing the public internet.

 IPFW and natd have bug when used with stateful rules.

RE: Enabling Macromedia Flash

2004-01-28 Thread Didier WIROTH
Hi,
I didn't know libmap.conf until this post.
I've read the man 5 libmap.conf but I don't really understand how this
works.

If we take the 2 first row from below as a sample:
 [/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
 libpthread.so.0 liblthread.so.3
 libdl.so.2  pluginwrapper/flash6.so
 libz.so.1   libz.so.2
 libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3liblstdc++.so.4
 libm.so.6   libm.so.2
 libc.so.6   pluginwrapper/flash6.so

Can this be we interpreted this way:
a) /usr/../liblfashplayer.so requires libpthread.so.0 
b) libpthread.so.0 is not present, it should use liblthread.so.3 instead

Is that correct? Or how should it be explained?

I believe that this message means that your DHCP client got assigned

 How do you define this from the command prompt, what is the command I would

You can examine the routing table by:

% netstat -r

There will be quite a lot of output, especially if you have IPv6
enabled, but the line you want will be pretty clear.  See netstat(1)
for a bunch of other options.

To set the default route do:

# route add net default 10.0.0.10

diskless boot: console via serial port?

2004-01-28 Thread Rob


Hi,

I'm trying to get diskless boot working, but I'm struggling.
I have two FreeBSD PCs, of which one is diskless. I have only
one monitor, so I'm continuesly reconnecting the monitor from
one PC to the other, to see what either the server or client
is doing.
Ideally I would like to monitor the boot process of the diskless
client on the server via the serial port console. However, I do
not seem to get that right.
I am quite familiar with making installation disks for serial boot,
by creating the boot.config on the floppy. But how does that
translate to the diskless situation?
Once I have this working, it'll be much easier for me to further
investigate the diskless boot problems.
Thanks,
Rob.

SCSI Tape drive problem

2004-01-28 Thread Doug Poland
Hi,

I'm running 4.9-STABLE on a box with an older HP 35480A DDS tape
drive.  Recently the drive started spitting out any tape I insert.
It simply will not accept any tape I load.  I've tried 5 different
tapes and it does the same thing.  Loads, lights blink for a second
or two, and the tape is spit back out.

Is this thing dead?  Given its age and limited storage capacity, I
would imagine that repair is not a cost-effective option.

Problems with ATEN UC232 apcupsd

2004-01-28 Thread J. Seth Henry
Hey guys/gals,
I realize this may not be a FreeBSD problem, but I thought I'd post it and see 
if anyone else has seen it. I want to connect an APC SmartUPS to a 
legacy-free FreeBSD system. I recently used another of these USB to serial 
converters with a home automation system, and it seems to work fairly well - 
but for some reason, the apcupsd software will not work with the converter. 

Here is the dmesg output for the device:
uplcom1: ATEN International Serial adapter, rev 1.10/0.01, addr 3

I don't get any errors in the dmesg output, but the apcupsd daemon errors out 
saying it can't communicate with the UPS.

I know the converter seems to work, as I can cat /dev/ucom1, and I get a 
stream of SM messages (from the UPS), and I can even log in interactively 
using tip (I have a management card in the UPS).

Any ideas what's going on?

Alternately, this UPS does have a USB port. Is there a way a to get FreeBSD to 
use it via that method?

Thanks,
Seth Henry

Hello everyone,

   I have FreeBSD 4.8-R as a NATd ipfw enable behind a DSL router.

   BSD box does the rest for my LAN.

   I redirect the port 22 from the router to my FreeBSD LAN box.

   The problem is DSL each time calls the internet has a new 'real IP'
   so I cannot know the ip IF im at home, then i cannot access the 
box from
   outside the LAN.

   Question is:
   Is there a way to configure the FreeBSD box to send an auto email for
   me each time the router has a new 'real IP' ?
   For sure by somehow the BSD box knows about the new ip for router.

   Thank you very much in advance.

Why send a email, when you can go to www.no-ip.com and register 
yourself a dynamic dns entry, and thus you can alwaus access your 
freeBSD box using marwan.no-ip.com or something similar. After 
registering you just need to install a daemon that automatically 
updates the ddns every now and then. I use this for the dial up 
gateway at home so I can check up on now the box is holding up with in 
its harsh enviornment (i.e. my brothers) - and it works great.

hth



I thought that too at first. But then I realised - hopefully correctly - 
that it's his dsl router that gets the dynamic ip address, not the 
freebsd box. Presumably, the router has a static 192.168.1.x address 
facing the LAN and the freebsd box uses this as its gateway. I doubt you 
can install a daemon on the router.

And, if this is right, I can't see how the freebsd machine would know 
what ip address had been allocated to the external pppoe  or pppoa 
interface of the router.

If I'm setting up a network with this type of topology, I always ask the 
isp for a small static ip address range.

wi output power control?

2004-01-28 Thread Michael Mee
it appears that the current wi driver doesn't allow control of output power.
Many Prism chipsets allow this, and the Linux HostAP driver supports it.

Has anyone looked at incorporating this into the FreeBSD driver?  Can
someone point me at the right place or give me some tips if I wanted to go
ahead and give it a try?  Would this type of change be accepted?

I'm just learning about procmail; so be wary of my advice:

First, are you **sure** you want to make an exception?

If you're allowing the users to decide whether/how their email should be 
filtered, you can copy the procmailrc file to .procmailrc in each user's home 
directory.  (You could even create a dot file in /usr/share/skel/ for future 
users.)  You can then modify or delete that user's .procmailrc.

Another option may be to add a delivering recipe to the top of the procmailrc 
file that delivers the specific user's mail unchanged.

It does? How? The daemon will be running on the Freebsd machine, which

5.1 box network hang....

2004-01-28 Thread Sean Hafeez
I have a strange issue. Running 5.1 on an AMD w/512 RAM. 20GB IDE and a 
Firewire card that has a 120GB drive on it. The load on the box is under 
1%. The NIC is a RealTech. It was an Intel PRO/100 card.

The issues:

Networking stops running. Everything is up. All the processes are runing 
the interface is up. But you cannot do anything with the network. Pings 
hang. You can bring the interface up and down and still hung. There is 
nothing in the logs. This happend every 3-5 days. I have replaced the NIC.

Thoughts?

Maybe I can help.  Is it possible for
you to do a cvsup of your ports tree?
The version of firebird in my tree
is 1.5r8 --- yours seems quite a bit
out of date.  The error message shows
that FreeBSD will not allow this port
to be built because of a security error.
It is generally a good idea to use the
most up-to-date ports tree if possible.
In order to save time, bandwidth, and
possibly money (depending on your ISP)
you should search the ports-supfile and
comment out languages you do not use,
and possibly categories that you will not
use either, such as chemistry, games,
astronomy, etc.

Right.  The dependency gds.1 must be present
in order to install PHP in the way you have chosen
to configure it.
In order to install gds.1, make(1) must first
install the firebird database.
The version of firebird that is listed in your
/usr/ports/databases/firebird/Makefile is one
that is not allowed to be installed due to a security
issue.
This leaves you two choices:

   1.  Upgrade your ports tree, so that the version
 of the Firebird DB that you install is newer
 and therefore permitted...
OR

   2.  Figure out what configuration option you
 chose that requires gds.1 as a dependency,
 and build PHP *without* it 
Good luck,

 That's a DDS-DC (somewhere between DDS-1 and DDS-2) or 2--4Gb

DDS[12] series DAT tape drives have a particular reputation for

  Bin it,

  and maybe buy a DVD+RW which will have a

While there is much to be said for DVD, not all tapes/drives
are that fragile.  I'm in my 3rd or 4th year with a DLT-IIIXL

the thing is a _rock_ even though I don't treat it all that well.
I have no experience with Exabyte, ALTs, LTOs, or other higher

 FreeBSD from Scratch describes a method for REbuilding a FreeBSD system
 entirely from sources, starting from an existing FreeBSD system.

 But I want to build a new FreeBSD system on a machine currently NOT
 running FreeBSD.  How can I do this?

 I'm used to doing this with Gentoo Linux:
 With Gentoo, one extracts a stage tarball to the target partition, which
 contains gcc, glibc and some other binary programs, just enough to rebuild
 itself, using a bootstrapping script.

With Gentoo, the stage tarball is also binary, isn't it?

For FreeBSD, you can download the miniinst CD image, which gives you
about the same thing as the stage tarball, except that it isn't a
tarball.

Instead of emerge system, one makes the world in FreeBSD.

CTM is down, I know, but are Mail Archives also down?

2004-01-28 Thread Paul Seniura

I was out-of-pocket yesterday, so I may have missed a lot.

Today I have been noticing no CTM deltas have arrived on the FTP sites
(including vmunix) since late Monday 26 Jan. 2004.
And then I tried to catch-up by browsing the Mail Archives today, to
find it hasn't been updated since then, too, except for some old
junky msgs.
The ctm-announce archive does show a msg about the CTM site being
down, before the archives themselves stopped updating.
My e-mail subscriptions are coming thru okay, tho, except for CTMs.

Did the sites get hit by the winter storm in NE US?

Is there an ETA as to when things will work again?

Could someone whip-up a webpage/link on the main site to post the
status if it'll be long, please?

Thank you, and sorry if this is the 10^Nth msg you received.
