You're in a much better position than we are to stop these, being (at least apparently) from IPs of your own ISP.

lseek problem
Hi all, I am working on porting an old system over to FreeBSD, and am having a weird (to me) problem. This system uses various data file types, and unfortunately it uses the group_id execution bit (but no execute) on a data file to signify a sequential type file (mode 2440). I have stepped through the code, and it is failing on an lseek (fd,0,SEEK_SET) where fd is the properly opened file descriptor for one of these files. This file is readable by the user and is about 2K in size. this lseek should work shoudn't it? Its returning -1 and sets errno to 22 (EINVAL). Could this be because of the weird mode? man chmod doesn't say anything about what the set-group-id bit does to non-executable files. Could this be the problem? Please reply to me as I don't subscribe to this list.

For example, I think the numerical libraries in Windows are significantly faster than FreeBSD. On the same system, I see ~25% more wu's calculated by setiathome from the Windows XP side than are processed on the FreeBSD 4.x side. I could be wrong on where the 25% speed gain is coming from but the difference is there. I added the cpu_time from the report that is uploaded to Berkely into a spread sheet and then compared the averages once I had accrued more than 200 wu's by each OS. You need to process several hundred wu's before the really short running ones ceased to affect the first few digits in the average. Look while you are doing some gui stuff and see if you are swapping. Your 8ns memory suddenly becomes equivalent to your HD average access time at that point and everything is going to run slower. I started looking at swapinfo on systems that I did port builds and frequent system builds and upped the memory until I quit swapping. The first DDR was 512 and it swapped. The 2nd DDR stick was also 512 and it didn't swap.

IPFW and NATD to open firewall for XBox Live
I hope the subject says it all... I'm told that while using xbox live behind a router (I'm using FreeBSD 5.2.1), ports 88 and 3074 need to be open.

My bad-memory problems were kindly fixed by a gentleman from the Seattle BSD users group, but there were scores of files missing (vanished) all over. Several missing binaries caused the /usr/src/Makefile to go haywire, so I had to build/install the kernel the old way: # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # [[ perform necessary kernel configuration on ``./KERNCONF'' ]] # config KERNCONF # cd ../../compile/KERNCONF # make depend # make # make install After going single-user, and mergmastering stuff, make installworld was broke, so I had to install several src trees by hand. At last make installworld worked and I came back up.

sendmail access file and cidrexpand
Adding cidrexpand support to the /etc/mail/Makefile would be handy; then
we could use CIDR notation in /etc/mail/access. I've edited the
/etc/mail/Makefile (patch attached), and it seems to work.
The question would be: have I done this in an appropriate way?
Feedback would be appreciated before I submit a send-pr.

I found that URL before I mailed the list and this confirms that I've done this correctly. For that I wish to thank you. However, the problem still remains. See, the problem is that from the remote side of the tunnel I can ping any IP address I assign lcoally, from the block I'm trying to route over the gre tunnel. I can ping the local side of the routing from the remote. However, if I ping the remote side of the tunnel (NOT the IPs used in the ifconfig gre1 tunnel statement, but the one used for the link1 statement) it fails to ping. I get exactly *one* ping through and recorded and then the rest just "magically" disappear. The local side shows them going out (via ipfw add statements and counting the packets), but the far side records only one packet recieved and ping shows one single successful send. Every packet after that seems to get lost. I've been thinking on this and want to see how far off base I am. So, feel free to tell me if you see something wrong in my logical thoughts. I have the /29 routed to here on the remote over the gre tunnel. I have another route statement on THIS side (local) for the same block. (My reasoning being that for the packets for that block to be answerable it has to know to go back over the tunnel. However, in my head that seems wrong since routing is destination based packet routing which means that i'm just bouncing the packets back and forth over the gre tunnel. It works fine coming from the remote to me because, well that's the correct traffic path. The route on MY side of the tunnel is wrong because I'm saying to route packets destined for the /29 BACk to the REMOTE side of the tunnel. Obviously not what we want here. The example given on the URL we both have shows 2 different /30s being routed across the GRE. I don't have that. I have a single /29 coming TO me locally. Now i need to know how to route any packets the /29 generates in response to traffic BACK over the gre TO the remote side and of course, back to their origination. OK, so I see I'm doing it wrong with the routing statement on my side (local) of the gre tunnel. How would I route the packets the /29 generates (either from me just using the IPs outbound with return traffic, or as someone contacting the IPs in the /29 and me responding)? Seems route is only half the answer when dealing with this. - -- D.D.W. Downey CyberSpace Technologies, Inc.

New apache2 rc.conf start syntax check
Hello, Sorry if this is a straight-forward case, but I just wanted to double-check the syntax for the new apache2 start syntax that's to be added to /etc/rc.conf. The pkg-message reads: # Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable apache2: # apache2_enable (bool): Set to "NO" by default. # Set it to "YES" to enable apache2 # apache2ssl_enable (bool): Set to "NO" by default. # Set it to "YES" to start apache with SSL # (if exists in httpd.conf) # apache2limits_enable (bool):Set to "NO" by default. # Set it to yes to run `limits $limits_args` # just before apache starts. # apache2_flags (str):Set to "" by default. # Extra flags passed to start command Now following from what's normally used for /etc/rc.conf, its reasonable to me that the syntax should be along the lines of: apache2_enable="YES" But reading the apache2 pkg-message, there's no mention of the use of the "=" for the apache2_enable statement. Is the "=" required or not? If it is, then shouldn't the examples in pkg-message include a reference to using the "=" before the bool selection? Thanks for the time.

The best way would be to do something like ifconfig ep0 inet 204.156.12.156 netmask 255.255.255.0 alias , since you have no guarantees that the remote system has a route back to your real IP address.

FreeBSD's libcurses is ncurses, and it also uses the same terminal descriptions that terminfo-using systems do (just in termcap format), so you shouldn't have any problems.

I put 5.2.1-RELEASE on an IBM Netfinity 5000 (dual Pentium III) and I had problems, although different from yours. This system has some warning LEDs on the motherboard which light up when something is wrong. Quite often, when booting, the NMI and PCI1 LEDs would light up, the message "NMI ISA 34, EISA ff" appears among the boot messages and system reboots shortly after that. PCI1 LED indicates a problem with the first PCI bus, which is where I have IBM ServeRAID controller. Interesting thing is that sometimes this problem during booting does not happen and once the system boots successfully there are never any problems. When I removed the second CPU, the problem disappeared. I am not quite convinced yet that the problem is completely gone (haven't rebooted too many times) but it certainly has been greatly reduced. Downgrading the firmware of ServeRAID controller from 6.10 to 5.10 (as recommended by another poster on this list) may also have contributed to resolving the problem. But the first thing I did was removing the 2nd CPU and I successfully booted several times between that and downgrading the ServeRAID firmware. I *seem* to remember one NMI-boot after removing the second CPU, but I'm not quite sure my memory isn't failing me - it has been quite a rough ride with this NF5000 during the past few days. Anyway, *before* removing the second CPU, the boot failure rate was >50%, so I'm sure removing the second CPU did help, even if downgrading the ServeRAID firmware may have helped further. -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * Feeling compressed ARJ you? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

First, you can install ncurses on FreeBSD so that's not a problem. It's been many years since I first worked with termcap on a Tandy Model 16/6000 running Xenix. I still have a couple of the early O'Reilly ``A Nutshell Handbook: Reading and Writing Termcap Entries'' by John Strang Copyright 1985 and Strang's ``Programming with Curses'' published at the same time. Terminfo came along a bit later from Bell Labs, and offered some extended functionallity as well as some restriction not found in termcap. Technically, they're both terminal capability databases. The termcap data file is simple ascii with two character attribute fields, and historically has been limited to a maximum size of 1024 characters for any terminal entry. Termcap is extensible in that there aren't any hard-coded attributes so the programmer can make up whatever suits the application. Terminfo doesn't restrict the attribute names to two characters, is compiled into a binary file for each terminal, and has never had the size limit of termcap. One of the downsides of terminfo is that the attributes aren't as flexible as those of termcap so the programmer can't arbitrarily define new ones as needed. Before the advent of ncurses and other open source terminfo implementations, this could be a serious problem. My bottom line is that termcap is simpler to use for projects such as printer descriptions where all I want is a simple way to define attributes, and I can retrieve them using the standard termcap libraries in C or perl. I've been using in a printer interface system for almost 20 years now where I use termcap files to define printer capabilities for run-time conversion depending on the type of printer. When I'm working with real terminals, I'm more likely to be using ncurses with terminfo since the work is largely done for me.

Parallel port probe failure in 5.2.1
Hello! Could anyone help me understand and resolve why FreeBSD 5.2.1 encounters a parallel port probe failure? When I boot, I do not find the predicted /dev/ppc0 and /dev/lp0 devices. If I boot in verbose mode, I the following is in /var/run/dmesg.boot: ppc0: parallel port found at 0x378 ppc0: using extended I/O port range ppc0: failed to probe at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa0 When using the KDE InfoCenter, under IO-Ports I find that 0x377-0x3bf is reserved by root0. This range would overlap the port IO range listed on the ppc0 messages. I don't know if these are related, but they seem to be to me. I found the text "failed to probe" in /usr/src/sys/isa/isa_common.c, but the source code didn't give me much to go on. I'm afraid I don't know enough yet about kernel modules and configuration to understand it. I'm running FreeBSD 5.2.1 (installed from the CD) on a Dell Dimension 8100 with 256K. Nothing too special except for a second Seagate 120GB drive (limited to 120GB to avoid having to introduce potentially incompatible hardware), and a combined USB2/Firewire card from Adaptec (which does probe successfully and appears to function correctly). It would be great actually if someone could give me two answers (I know one should not post two questions, but perhaps one can ask for two answers). First, what might be a quick fix to get my parallel port recognized? Second, how does one go about identifying and remedying port IO configuration conflicts?

install from floppies will not resolve any ftp server
I d/l the floppies and made them and get thru the whole install process but can not resolve any ftp servers to finish. I have tried several nics and I don't think thats the problem. My setup is this. to be freebsd computer hardwired to a switch. the switch is connected to the lan port of a sonic wall. the wan port of the sonic wall is connected to my wireless Access Point which flys thru the air to a neighbors house where i have another wireless radio that rec the signal puts it thru a linksys router and out the cable modem. I can surf from the home network fine. been doing that for a year. I just can't get the freebsd to resolve ftp to finish the install. In the network setup I put host - commanche domain - left blank ip is dhcp (and yes it receives and ip subnet is dhcp dns servers are dhcp also (which my home network computers get and work just fine). gate way is dhcp (home network uses same one w/o any problem) no extra config in the network setup. sometimes it kicks back instantly that can't resolve and other times sits there for long time. I have tired manually putting in the info and no go either. I have no errors in the sonic wall or linksys router about it. I can ftp from any home network computer .

Yep, I agree. Turning on ntalkd (/etc/inetd.conf) is one of the first things I do on a new box. I still use talk daily to keep in touch with friends. Often, we will use talk over an ssh connection but this requires having an account on the box. It'd be nice if there were an encrypted version of ntalkd. The thing I like about the unix talk is that it doesn't require any 3rd party servers like IRC, ICQ or whatever. Its strictly box to box. I've even went so far as to hack talkd/announce.c to play a wav file when a talk request is received. The port net/ytalk is similar and allows more than 2 parties to talk. It also needs the ntalkd turned on. Randy -- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Need to build, but not install/use system perl in 4.10
I recently added the perl 5.8 port to my build server. When building FreeBSD 4.10, it did not build the system perl as expected. However, I have a smaller machine that mounts /usr/src and /usr/obj off of the build server, which croaked in installworld when it couldn't find the system perl library. There's really no reason for me to have the perl port on that machine. So my question is, is there some combination of the PERL variables in /etc/make.conf on the build server that would cause the system perl to be built by buildworld, but not installed by installworld (i.e. continue to use the port perl)? It looks like omitting NOPERL will cause system perl to be built, but will it also try to install it? I guess I can also live with the server installing system perl with installworld, as long as the server defaults to using port perl. I'm assuming that omitting the PERL variables in make.conf on the client machine will do the right thing during installworld, once the server has built the system perl.

Remember, that ipfw goes through the rulesets until it finds a match and will stop at that point. So, to provide rate limiting as well as allowing traffic on the lan to go all out, place allow rules before the pipes to specifically allow traffic between your lan ip ranges unhindered. #Rate Limit Settings $fwcmd pipe 1 config bw 128Kbit/s $fwcmd pipe 2 config bw 128Kbit/s #Unrestricted LAN Access Allows $fwcmd add allow ip from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.96.48.0/24 $fwcmd add allow ip from 192.96.48.0/24 to 192.168.0/24 #Rate Limit Rules $fwcmd add pipe 1 ip from 192.168.1.0/24 to any out $fwcmd add pipe 2 ip from any to 192.168.1.0/24 in Hope it helps.

I think it means any host can connect and asks in a broadcast.
If, on your network, a host does
X -broadcast
your machine will/may appear in the that machine's chooser list.
I don't really get you, I'm a xdm newbie;)
I am not sure of the inner machenism but in my local network
(192.168.0.0/24) everyone in the office use gdm and turned on XDMCP, so
you pick up a box with gdm login screen, select 'run host chooser' from
'system' menu, you will see all the computers in the office listed there
and I can pick up one to login. I believe this means they are all
broadcasting.
I don't know if it also allows an indirect request:
X -indirect
Oh, and take also a note of this in xdm-config file:
! SECURITY: do not listen for XDMCP or Chooser requests
! Comment out this line if you want to manage X terminals with xdm
DisplayManager.requestPort: 0
What does this mean? I am running a slow box I don't need myself to be
listed in the host chooser of other boxes, but I need to be able to
login to other boxes.
I'm not an expert either, but I have some memories when I was fiddling
with X and xdm configuration. So take my advice was a pinch of salt.
The files /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xaccess and /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config
are only for regulating access from other hosts to your PC. Apparently that's
not what you're interested in. For security reasons, it's then better to block
that access, since X is a rather insecure protocol.
So, if other computers are configured such that they answer broadcast requests,
or direct access request, you can simply type that from your PC.
You requesting a broadcast, should be something like:
X -broadcast
If you want to get a chooser from a specific host, then type:
X -indirect
If you want to get directly to xdm on a specific host, then do:
X -query
At least that's what I remember. Do "X -help" for all flags, such
as forcing a display 3 and/or virtual terminal 9 ("X :3 vt9").
However, once again, I may be wrong here in the details. Hopefully a more
knowledgeable person will give comments too.

Re: Problems mounting my cdrom drive

termcap vs terminfo
I've noticed that the base system does not have terminfo, but instead comes with termcap. Apparently BSD always had termcap and System V had terminfo. I don't want to start a religious war as to which one is better, but only want to ask if anyone has experienced problems when porting ncurses applications from BSD to System V and vice versa, and what could be done to minimise such problems.

vi, threading, EAGAIN, nonblocking (was: Error: input: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[Sorry if this has been answered; I'm catching up on freebsd-questions
and I haven't seen it in the next seven or eight digests.]
Tim Gustafson writes:
>I am getting the following error in "vi" pretty consistently:

>Usually I get this at every attempt I make to run vi.
Here's the scenario I found for this:
A threaded program (before 5.x and the new threading system) will turn
on Nonblocking on ALL the program's file descriptors, including stdin,
stdout, and stderr. This setting is not on the process but on the open,
which is shared between processes (and thus, between various programs
that run at a given terminal, including the shell). An unsophisticated,
innocent program will try to do a read(2) on the terminal, expecting to
block waiting for input. Instead, it will receive an EAGAIN, which
basically means ``use poll(), select(), or kevent() to wait until the
input is _really_ there.'' So now vi/nvi has an input terminal that
doesn't behave like a terminal is supposed to behave; it's getting an
EAGAIN, and it does the safest thing it knows: it reports the problem
and goes away.
I use this little program to check for Nonblocking and restore the
normal (Blocking) state on the tty:
#include
#include
#include
#include
bool checkfd( int fd );
int
main()
{
return checkfd( 0 )
&& checkfd( 1 )
&& checkfd( 2 ) ? 0 : 1;
}
bool
checkfd( int fd )
{
int flags = fcntl( fd, F_GETFL, 0 );
if( flags == -1 )
{
cerr << "Fd " << fd << ": " << strerror( errno ) << endl ;
return false;
}
cout << fd << ( ( flags & O_NONBLOCK ) ? " nonblocking" : " blocking" )
<< endl ;
if( ! ( flags & O_NONBLOCK ) )
cerr << "blocking" << endl ;
else
{
cerr << "nonblocking" << endl ;
if( fcntl( fd, F_SETFL, flags & ~O_NONBLOCK ) == -1 )
{
cerr << "Couldn't set O_NONBLOCK: " << errno
<< " " << strerror( errno ) << endl ;
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
Hope this helps.

So it's an AUDIO CD. You can't mount an audio CD. It has no filesystem. If you want, you may grab it.

This has happened to me. The problem was with the file system startsector. By default, mount_cd9660 uses a default of 15112. I had to use mount_cd9660 along with -s startsector. Here is how I used cdcontrol to get the right startsector for a particular track... # mount_cd9660 -v /dev/acd0 /mnt using starting sector 15112 mount_cd9660: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument # cdcontrol cdcontrol> info Starting track = 1, ending track = 3, TOC size = 34 bytes track start duration block length type - 1 0:02.00 3:15.35 0 14660 data 2 3:17.35 0:06.02 14660 452 data 3 3:23.37 11:02.37 15112 49687 data 170 14:25.74 - 64799 - - If I changed the startsector to 0, I saw the root FS and some data but no folders. I had to use -s 14660. So the solution for me was: root:/# mount_cd9660 -v -s 14660 /dev/acd0 /mnt Hope this helps. -Victor On Fri, 2004-06-04 at 22:44, Bruce Hunter wrote: > I am having problems mounting my cdrom drive. > > i have also run the command > mount_cd9660, and this is the result > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0 /cdrom/ > mount_cd9660: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument > > this is with the mount command > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mount -v -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 /cdrom/ > cd9660: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument > > Thanks guys, > Bruce > > ___ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
