cannot load ndis module into kernel, FB 5.2.1, TrueMobile 1300
Hi all, I am willing to try the ndis wrapper for my TrueMobile 1300 card on a Dell Inspiron 8500 notebook. I installed FreeBSD 5.2.1 and did a cvsup to CURRENT(25th of May). No custom kernel as of yet. The module builds but make load fails. Same is for if_ndis but it is because /sys/modules/ndis load fails. Error that I get is: /sbin/kldload -v /usr/src/sys/modules/ndis/ndis.ko link_elf: symbol __panic undefined kldload: can't load /usr/src/sys/modules/ndis/ndis.ko: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 Any idea about what could be wrong?

Re: RE: ethernet card not coming up on reboot
Aloha Eric and Luke I am aware that sysinstall will append to rc.conf. I went ahead and deleted all of the appends and rebooted. The ethernet did not come up on reboot. I had to use sysinstall to get an ip. And yes, it did append to rc.conf again. I will look into setting a static ip but I would like to know why this is happening. I have 3 other boxes that have FreeBSD on them and they don't have this problem.

RE: ethernet card not coming up on reboot
I have also noticed this issue, but if I have only once instance of the entry in rc.conf, everything works fine. Why not statically define the IP, though? That would be the best situation, IMHO.

Aloha I have a little annoyance on one of my boxes. The box has an Asus P4P800 mobo with a 2.6GHz P4 and 1GB of DDR-400 Ram. I have FreeBSD 5.2-RC1 loaded on a 120Gig SATA Hard disk. My ouput of uname -a: p4# uname -a FreeBSD p4.hawaii.rr.com 5.2-RC1 FreeBSD 5.2-RC1 #0: Sun Dec 7 22:15:14 GMT 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 The mobo has an onboard 3COM 3C940 Gbit LAN controller. This device is recognised during boot as sk0 and uses the SysKonnectPCI driver. The problem is that after a reboot a DHCP address is not assigned to sk0. Here is "ifconfig -a" after a reboot. p4# ifconfig -a sk0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::20c:6eff:fe91:dea6%sk0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 ether 00:0c:6e:91:de:a6 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX ) status: active plip0: flags=8810 mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 Here is the output of resolv.conf and rc.conf p4# cat /etc/resolv.conf search hawaii.rr.com nameserver 24.25.227.66 nameserver 24.25.227.33 nameserver 24.25.227.64 p4# cat /etc/rc.conf # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # Thu May 20 10:05:35 2004 # Created: Thu May 20 10:05:35 2004 # Enable network daemons for user convenience. # Please make all changes to this file, not to /etc/defaults/rc.conf. # This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf. hostname="p4.hawaii.rr.com" ifconfig_sk0="DHCP" linux_enable="YES" nfs_client_enable="YES" sshd_enable="YES" usbd_enable="YES" # This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf. # Please make all changes to this file, not to /etc/defaults/rc.conf. # Enable network daemons for user convenience. # Created: Thu May 20 20:27:06 2004 # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # Thu May 20 20:27:06 2004 ifconfig_sk0="DHCP" hostname="p4.hawaii.rr.com" # This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf. # Please make all changes to this file, not to /etc/defaults/rc.conf. # Enable network daemons for user convenience.

Package database corruption... need assistance
Hello. A friend of mine is running 5.1-REL and has somehow managed to get some serious corruption on her package database. It's more than I've come across before so I wanted to find out the easiest way to clean this up. The way things stand now, she gets lots of stale dependency errors when doing an pkgdb -F. Such as: Stale dependency: AbiWord2-gnome-2.0.3 -> libIDL-0.8.2 (devel/libIDL): libvorbis-1.0.1,3 (score:18%) ? ([y]es/[n]o/[a]ll) [no] Which suggests that libIDL isn't installed... but according to ls /var/db/pkg it actually is. I had her try going into /usr/ports/devel/libIDL to do a "make clean install" but we get this: ===> Checking if devel/glib20 already installed pkg_info: /var/db/pkg/XFree86-fontCyrillic-4.3.0/+CONTENTS: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/glib20. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/libIDL. She has the folder /var/db/pkg/XFree86-fontCyrillic-4.3.0/ with some files (+COMMENT,+DESC,+MTREE_DIRS,+REQUIRED_BY) but not +CONTENTS. Presumably a lot of her other stale-dependency errors (and there are many from pkgdb -F) are also corrupted /var/db/pkg folders. What's the easiest way of fixing this? Do each of the problem programs need to be "make deinstall" and "make clean reinstall"? That's a lot. :( ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

'#periodic monthly' '#periodic weekly' '#periodic daily' problems
hi to everyone, I have been using my freebsd system for almost 7-8 months. I have read in my internal help documents about newbies that I should run #periodic monthly #periodic weekly #periodic daily from time to time...I still have not really grasp the importance of it but I have developed the habbit of running these commands from time to time...I think cron does run these commands for me too...but since I turn-off my laptop after work, i use to run these commands on my free time. But, for the past few weeks, I have forgotten about these commands... Yesterday, I wanted to run these commands but I encountered some problems: future# periodic monthly future# collect: Cannot write ./dfi4Q1lWFh000774 (bfcommit, uid=25, gid=25): Permission denied queueup: cannot create queue file ./qfi4Q1lWFh000774, euid=25: Permission denied future# periodic weekly future# collect: Cannot write ./dfi4Q1rFUu000854 (bfcommit, uid=25, gid=25): Permission denied queueup: cannot create queue file ./qfi4Q1rFUu000854, euid=25: Permission denied future# periodic daily future# collect: Cannot write ./dfi4Q1xS9A001139 (bfcommit, uid=25, gid=25): Permission denied queueup: cannot create queue file ./qfi4Q1xS9A001139, euid=25: Permission denied I can only say that a week fews ago, I still can no longer remember why...but I did a very not so good thing to my system...I did a #rm -rf * on my /var/log directory. After that, since i do not want to bother the list about my on wrong doing I made a list of the /var/log files on the other pc at my home and created the almost the same files from that list, which i think I have done quite but maybe not successfully. Does the errors above connection to what I did to the /var/log files? What should I do to eliminate these errors and be able to run these commands again?

The source tree is only guaranteed to compile with the system compiler (from that very tree). If you need GCC 3.x on FreeBSD 4, use one of the ports, but you will need to build your world with /usr/bin/gcc (a.k.a. 2.95.4). Ports should work just fine with gcc 3.x, but you should not mix and build some with gcc 2.x and some with 3.x. This is mainly because C++ name mangeling has changed in 3.x (read c++ shared libs compiled with different versions of GCC are incompatible). Simon signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Hello, Which release of FreeBSD by standard has GCC 3.3.3 or higher? Otherwise, are there any decent guides of how to setup GCC properly after upgrading 2.95 (FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE). I've had major troubles since updating it - that things aren't being recognised as new - and have had to use symbolic links (which I still don't think are working 100%).

Sort of. Some of the kernel interface tools like ps, netstat, etc. will not run under 5.x since they are tied to the version of the running kernel. If you need these to work within the jail, you can copy the 5.x binaries and necessary support libraries from the outside host into the jail. Other binaries will run fine.

Device Driver issues on 4.7
I have taken several existing device driver sources and used them to create a new device driver. However, I cannot seem to get the system to probe for my device. I created a device driver named vsbc which can get configured at either 0x0e0 or 0x1e0 depending on BIOS settings in a PC-104 mobo. Therefore, I need to use a kernel configuration line like: device vsbc0 at isa? port 0x0e0 to configure it. I added the lines to files.i386 and this part of the configuration seems to work correctly, up to a point. The problem occurs somewhere in the actual device probing, in that isa_common.c prints the following during boot -v: vsbc0 failed to probe at port 0xe0 on isa0 I do not understand which important piece of linkage I have missed in order to get the system to call my probe and attach subroutines in order to make the device connect properly. I have read all of the existing web resources I can find, and they all seem hopelessly out-of-date or ones that apply only to -CURRENT. I have an isa_driver structure in my code which includes the probe and attach linkages, so I guess the problem comes in linking this structure into some sort of global list so the system can find it. So, can anyone tell me which important piece of the configuration I have missed?

Re: install ipsec tools
Xavier, you should attempt to install the package from the ports tree. FreeBSD uses the ports tree much like mandrake uses RPM files. The difference of course is that RPM files are binary packages while the ports tree simply provides a makefile which will fetch the source, configure and compile the software. The Additionally the FreeBSD folks verify that the makefiles work, and you will likely have good success installing from source in this manner. Ports are arranged in a file tree, so you need to find the specific folder that contains the port you wish to install, you can do a search in the following manner: cd /usr/ports make search key=racoon All ports with that keyword in their name will be listed, go to the directory that is specified, and do: make install That will fetch/configure/compile/install the package for you. Also, read the FreeBSD handbook concerning ports, and you should be all set. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html Hopefully this helps. xavier collot wrote: Hi !!

Your first post said you deleted all the files, but your second post mentions "move everything into it". The kernel can only truncate the directory past the last filename.

That's a good answer, but not for this particular question. Piotr, if your FreeBSD router has an Ethernet interface bound to the IP assigned by each ISP, then the easiest way to transfer your NAT from one ISP to the other is probably simply to kill the existing natd and re-run it with a different -n option. This *will* have the effect of taking down your NAT for the transition period -- this is unavoidable. You could achieve the transition with a simple shell script that would ping the "active" connection, and if it fails, `killall natd`, wait for the process to die, and re-launch with the different command line opts.

Imap Proxy server?

Re: Solved: FreeBSD as print server w/CUPS + samba + apsfilter
Alas, too late I see this thread :) I have written (some months ago) a guide covering the installation and configuration of CUPS+Samba with printing from Windows (2k, NT, XP) clients via the Samba/Windows Network-Interface (the one where you can download printer drivers from the print server). I've sent it to Daemonnews months ago, but they didn't reply. I'll post the links here, and although it doesn't cover apsfilter, I am sure there are a few useful hints and points in there.

I would like to believe that those non-fatal but pesky messages had
been taken care of in FreeBSD 4.x, but that is quite unlikely. You
seem to have captured only stdout output but not stderr output. If
that assumption is correct, then (using bourne like shell) ...
{ make buildkernel && make installkernel; } >KERNEL.TXT 2>&1
...should capture output in both the streams.

Have you tried the obvious? 1. mkdir tmpdir 2. mv everything from olddir/* to tmpdir, [*] 3. rmdir olddir 4. mv tmpdir olddir [*] "mv olddir/* tempdir" may not work if you have many files left. Use a script, find(1), tar(1) or whatever you feel comfortable with, instead. The directory could be in theory compacted, but only if it is not in use (i.e. not mapped in the kernel's VNODE(9)s).

CDrom problems
It appears that there are quite a few problems with basic setup and cdrom. Could someone please post a copy of associated files to give an example of setup? The kernel.GENERIC is okay for root access to the cdrom, but there are problems allowing general users access. Just the general associations would work. Also, could someone address the question of ATAPI compliance of devices? Thanks in advance.

Works fine with FreeBSD 4.9, has the same difficulties with 5.2.1 as every other computer I've tried. For upgrading older ATX systems, consider using the MSI KM2M motherboard. It sells for about $55, will support Athlons up to 2400 (but only Palomino or Thoroughbred, be careful about that), and will take either DDR or PC100/PC133 SDRAM (but not both).

The 64-bit support on FreeBSD is very good, as long as you download the AMD64 ISOs and not the i386 ISOs. As for S-ATA, the support isn't really optimal as far as I know, especially when you're going to use an S-ATA RAID controller.

Unfortunately, having made my best guess, I'm afraid I'm all out of suggestions. Other than this: take a close look at the way both of those boxes are set up, and try and isolate the differences in configuration between the two. The answer should lie somewhere in there -- something you did differently on one of the boxes. Isolate that, and you're home and dry. Which is easy to say, but not necessarily easy to do.
