Problem with Intel 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller

[Gabor Esperon]

Hi!

I have an Intel 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller
working at 100Mb/s on FreeBSD 5-CURRENT and FreeBSD
5-BETA3:

em0:
flags=8843 mtu
1500
   
options=1b
inet 192.168.1.32 netmask 0xff00 broadcast
192.168.1.255
ether 00:07:e9:09:a7:37
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX
)
status: active

thats ok, but in both systems I can only get transfers
at 2.xMb/s (MBytes) as the following "netstat -w1 -I
em0" show:
input  (em0)   output

why is there no d partition

[H. Sandring]

Dear list,
 
I am wondering why there is never a "d" partition showing up in my
disklabels (e.g. ad0s1d).
Is there something special about it?
 
TIA

Re: does java needs linux base?

You need a linux jdk tp build the native one.

Re: Can't boot

[Phil Thomson]

I assume that you are installing *only* FreeBSD on the Pentium and not
multibooting it. Did you select to install the standard MBR or did u
select to leave he MBR untouched? What happens when you try to boot
the system fromthe hadr drive?
Yes, FreeBSD is to be the only system on the machine. I actually don't 
remember what I chose to do with regards to the MBR; was there a point in 
the installation I would have made that choice? I'm pretty sure I would 
have chosen to install the standard MBR as there are no other systems on 
the machine. Is there a way I can fix the MBR now if that's the issue? I 
couldn't find that in sysinstall.

When I try to boot from the hard drive, it says "Read error".

Question::page fault::vm:::encrypt and decrypt file data

[Pine Ful]

hi,
   Q1: How to produce a page fault?
   Q2: How translate physical memory address into virtual memory address? 
Because phys addr is 64 bit and virtual addr is 32 bit.
   Q1 description:: I have succeed to add hook in vfs layer to encrypt file 
data before write and decrypt file data after read. Now, when I use cp 
command, system will reboot, it seem to caused by encrypt data whose addr is 
uio->uio_iov->iov_base. Is it ok if only I produce a page fault manually?
   Q2 description:: I try to decrypt file data when page fault. I find it's 
easy to get physical address from virtual address, but when page fault, kern 
will page in several pages including page we require, how can I get virtual 
memory address of these pages? May I access data in physical memory 
directly? If yes, how tranlate 64 bit phys addr into 32 bit virt addr?

   Thanks

The "roadmap" date is the latest one I could find, and that is on a
linked site. The latest on the site itself is Spring 1996.

In some cases, I seem to be having problems with

I guess I am just perplexed.  I realize that you have
fixed it, but I don't know how to get a hold of that
code.

Here is a screen shot of the 'ifiter_ioctl.c' file
taken from yesterday's ntp-dev version:
http://www.US-Webmasters.com/Temp/NTP-broadcastclient-File-List.gif

If the problem was fixed in March, as far as I can 
tell it didn't get included in this version because 
the file dates are mostly 2004 February 25.  There
is one file dated 2004 March 26, but according to 
what you indicated earlier the bug was contained 
in 'ifiter_ioctl.c':

http://tinyurl.com/66see

Danny, I am not trying to ruffle anybody's feathers,
or cause problems--I am just trying to get my
FreeBSD box to keep the correct time.  I've spent
the last 6 days primarily trying to get this to
work.  I thought it would be a half hour project.
http://makeashorterlink.com/?O1DB32F29

Please have mercy on me and help me out.  ;^)

I am not a professional 'C' programmer so I don't 
really know where your code fix goes in the file.

Regards,

W. D.

About NETGRAPH

[Abdul Rf]

Dear all,

I've trying configure NETGRAPH for PPPoE server on my FreeBSD (I'm
using FreeBSD 4.9R). I've been following this site for my case
(http://www.rensel.com/wireless/pppoe.cfm) and with some configure.

My problem is, if i have connected to my FreeBSD with my Windows
machine (using RASPPPOE) just for four connection, and no more. How
can i have more connection with my windows machine?


Thanks and regards,

Can't boot

[Phil Thomson]

Hi all,
Just installed FreeBSD on a Pentium 150 I found in the garbage (!), and it 
seems the installation went fine, but I cannot boot. I had to use the boot 
floppies to start the installation, so I used those to boot from to try 
and figure out how to configure the boot options in sysinstall, but I had 
no luck. I tried using the fixit floppy, but I don't understand how to 
find the hard drive or what I would do when I got there (I'm kind of a 
newbie to FreeBSD). The "holographic shell" didnt work (no shell came up 
at all). I can't currently rescue from a CD as I did a network install 
from floppies. What is the next step?

EsperNET IRC

[Arizona Uplink]

Greetings!

I've noticed that a group has initiated an IRC support channel on
freenode for FreeBSD. I would like to extend the courtesy of starting
one on irc.esper.net, which is growing on a rather nice incline. I
currently have it registered, but would like to extend the invitation
to expand your support energy to a growing IRC server that already has
quite a few FreeBSD guru's looking for a place to meet, most of which
I come in contact with daily. My nickname on irc.esper.net (6667) is
azuplink, and I am usually in #FreeBSD and #hackermind channels on the
server. Please stop in sometime!

Thx

OT: Nachos - simulated OS

[parv]

Has anybody successfully compiled & used Nachos on FreeBSD 4.x, a
simulated OS?  If so, could you please share the script?

Some information is here...
  http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/tom/nachos/
  http://kakugawa.aial.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/lecture/2000/ASE1/Handouts/overview.html


I suppose i am feeling lazy to compile gas, binutils, & gcc (which
would make the 3d instance) from source to be cross-compile-able due
to lack of a port. Speaking of which ... Nachos has been reported to
be ported to FreeBSD, btw.  (Hint, Hint.)

255.255.255.255
Why would you be trying to broadcast to everyone in the world?
Try 192.168.2.255. If it's not on the same subnet it would need
to be a different address.
However, Tardis can be configured to broadcast on
any address.  What is/are the recommended IP
address(es)?
No it can't. There are only (relatively) few broadcast addresses and
the routers have to support them or it will drop the packets if they
are not link local.

Thanks, Harlan.  I tried using Lynx here:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntp_spool/ntp4/
Unfortunately, I can't seem to find where Lynx put the
file after is was downloaded--if it even really
downloaded it in the first place.
Make sure you pull the ntp-dev tarball and not the stable.
If I download using Windows and burn it to a
CD, would there be problems because the file date
would be off?
What has the file time got to do with anything?
Also, I am still waiting to hear back from Danny.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the 2004 Aug. 20
version does not have his broadcastclient fix in
it.
I have no idea what that version is or where you got it.
The problem was fixed back in March.

Customizing a "release"

[ctodd]

I'm looking for information on how to properly customize a FreeBSD
distribution when using the "make release" framework. I've made some
attempts to include a custom kernel in my own release, but this kernel
never makes it's way into the staging area (i.e. ftp distribution). The
documentation on the FreeBSD site covers how to build a release, but other
than a few hints I'm not finding and references on the correct way to
customize the release. Preferably I'd like to populate the build area
with the source, and apply my own patches prior to completing the build so
that a "make rerelease" and lengthy delay is not necessary. On that note,
is it possible to pre qualify a source file using the version control
number prior to applying the patch so that source changes are flagged?

PXE Questions

[admin2]

I'm starting to use PXE to install FreeBSD servers, something I've been
doing with Linux for a while. I've got installs working, but I'm running
into a few flexibility issues I hope have been addressed.

While I use DHCP to install the server, the server should not attempt to
boot DHCP when rebooted. I've used the packageAdd mechanism to install and
run a script that customizes the rc.conf file, but upon first reboot the
hostname and DHCP configuration items are inserted into rc.conf below the
items I added with my script.

Q. How can the install be customized to cofigure rc.conf with a static IP
address rather than DHCP? Failing that, how can the "first boot"
configuration be disabled as to not conflict with my custom changes?

I have several different server configurations I need to run, and would
like to setup a per host install.cfg. RedHat's "kickstart" allows these
configurations to be defined on a per IP address basis by modifying a
config file. FreeBSD requires that the mfsroot image be mounted and the
install.cfg file within be modified. This process would need to be done
every time a server is installed rather than having a few vanilla
configurations that could be called independantly (ATA vs SCSI for
example).

Q. Can per host configurations be used? If not, can the install.cfg file
be used to retrieve this data "on the fly" i.e. :

variable=`fetch http://confighost/cgi-bin/config.pl`

where config.pl would be a script that could return values based on
the client IP address?

Is there another way to address this issue?

How to use NAS???

[Gary Kline]

I've been trying to configure festival here on tao to be 
more familiar with it and be able to use it as a speech
synth'z'r on my laptop.  I run into a 'Can't access NAS"
error (ENOENT??) after I try to have the program issue
a test string.  A gengtleman at Edinburgh said I could
either axe NAS from the build, or configure NAS to 
point to my server.

I figured it would be decades before computers could
synth speech to an acceptable degree.  But this program
is getting awfully close.  interested?checkitout:NULL;

thanks for any NAS clues,

	He will just tell you to update your port definition.  The port 
definition I have is for version 4.2.0, and is fully current with our 
latest release.

	Also note that 4.2.0 was recently integrated into the FreeBSD 5.* 
tree, so if you pick up one of the FreeBSD 5.3-BETA tarballs, that 
will bring you up to current.  This version may also be incorporated 
into the upcoming release of the 4.* tree, if that has not yet 
already happened.

	We have a pretty good relationship with the FreeBSD folks, and 
they tend to track things like ntpd pretty closely.

Do you have any idea how to get in touch with

It would be great to find out why it is done this way.

Also, I'd like to find out if the port maintainer

Assuming you are going to use i386 machine..

The interface is supported by many versions. See it yourself from
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/index.html.

In my experience, (the last version I used was on 4.4-STABLE), pnp mode
never worked for me. As others say, I had to configure them with dos.

Problem with building ngircd from the ports

[Martin Hasenbein]

Hi everybody,

I just installed ngircd and it really runs fine. Just as I like it :-)
But I ran into some trouble, when I tried to activate IDENT. My system
is a FreeBSD 4.10. If I try to install from the port or from source,
I get the following error (right now from port):

$ make -DWITH_IDENT install clean

[..snipp..]

checking for ident_id in -lident... no
checking for ident_id... no
configure: error: Can't enable IDENT support!
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.

Any ideas, why this happens? I already googled, but with no success.

Thank you.


Ciao,
 -Martin.

Also insist on going for a 80 conductor cable instead of the 40

Re: newest kdelibs fails to build

[Donald J. O'Neill]

I took this from the announcement on the ports list:
Packages are available for i386 for 4-STABLE and 5-CURRENT 
(5.3-BETA) from 
http://rabarber.fruitsalad.org

Did you run pkgdb -fF? As I said before, I had to fix the broken 
dependencies on kdelibs and kdepim before "portupgrade -pv kde\* 
quanta\*" would work. 

Do you have qt-3.3.3 installed on your systems. You need to have 
that. If not, install it first. Do you have arts-1.3.0,1 installed. 
if not, install that next, it has a dependency on qt in order to 
build from ports. Then install kdelibs-3.3.0, from ports. It has 
dependency on qt and arts in order to build. After that try 
upgrading using portupgrade, or if you have truly trashed kde, 
build kde-3.3.0, the meta port. Then, build any other kde ports you 
need.

I run FreeBSD 5.2.1p9. There aren't any kde packages for it yet, 
maybe there are now, well I know there are, I built them and 
they're sitting on my system, but they not generic built.

Don

Yeh that board works with FreeBSD 5.2.1-R-p9. However you need to
reflash the latest BIOS as the ACPI seems to be broken and yes the
sound DOES work. You need a rebuild of the kernel though.

Re: FreeBSD on external Hard Disk

[Subhro]

The installation to external hard disk is exactly the same as if you
had another internal drive. Only the external Hard disk will show up
as da0 and you need to keep an eye on which drive you are
partitioning. Select to install the Boot Manager in the MBR when
sysinstall asks for it. alternative you can use a third party boot
manager like grub but it is not at all recommended. Refer to the
handbook for the nitty gritty details about how to go on with the
installation.

Re: newest kdelibs fails to build

[Steven Friedrich]

Thanks for the info.

I added CFLAGS and COPTFLAGS to my make.conf, but it still fails to build 
kdelibs on two machines.  This looks like a valid build break to me.  Did you 
build it on 4.x or 5.x?

I suspect it's due to the compiler on 4.x.  Did the KDE port team build it on 
4.10-STABLE?

I downloaded the 2004 Aug 26 version from:

For some reason, I can't get to the UDel.edu FTP site.

In the 2004 Aug 26 version that I have, the libisc/ifiter_ioctl.c
file is dated 2004 Feb. 24.  Within it, I can't find the places
to edit this file.  I suspect that this file is probably
far out of date compared to the current version.  Here
is what I have:

http://www.us-webmasters.com/Temp/ifiter_ioctl.c.txt

Rather than trying to edit this C file, would it be better
to just download the 2004 Aug 30, or later version?

Did you set the sysctl net.link.ether.ipfw=1? You can do this 
in /etc/sysctl.conf or via the sysctl command.

If you want to establish any kind of useful communication, you need to allow 
incoming and outgoing traffic for the specified MAC. 

# ipfw add pass MAC any 10:20:30:40:50:60
# ipfw add pass MAC 10:20:30:40:50:60 any
   
To use arp requests (which are addressed to ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) you need to 
allow them a way out, too.  

# ipfw add pass MAC any ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 

Cheers,

FreeBSD on external Hard Disk

[Olivier Renard]

Hello,

I am new to FreeBSD, hence this question regarding the installation of
FreeBSD 5.2.1 on an
external hard disk. I was considering buying a Maxtor One-Touch (USB and
FireWire, 80GB) to install FreeBSD 5.2.1 on it. I already have Windows XP
Pro and
Fedora Core 2 installed on an Acer TravelMate 803 CLi (with Intel Centrino
chip) laptop, but to make things cleaner, I think it is better to install
FreeBSD on an external hard disk and to update the MBR on the TravelMate so
as to be able
to boot FreeBSD on the external drive.

I have searched the mailing lists on FreeBSD and searched Google, but there
does not seem to be any information on such a set-up. If anyone has any
exprerience installing FreeBSD 5.2.1 on an external hard disk (particulary
the
Maxtor HD mentioned above), your help and advice would be immensely
appreciated.

Thank you very much

OK, that looks about right.
Yes, ipfw2 is on my freebsd system. This rule is basically: "allow
traffic from mac address 10:20:30:40:50:60 to anywhere on the
network".
What am I doing wrong?
Dunno.  You've told us what you want to do, but you haven't told us 
what the problem is that you are having.  If you add the log keyword to 
your rules, you might have a better shot at seeing what they are doing; 
also look at "ipfw -a list".

[Donald J. O'Neill]

Hi Steven,

It looks to me like you may be missing something in your make.conf 
file. I use:
 CFLAGS= -O -pipe
 COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe
And If you're just upgradeing KDE to 3.3, you can use:
 BATCH=yes

Run pkgdb -fF and straighten out any bad dependencies. When I did 
the upgrade, after following step 2, there were dependencies on 
kdeutils and kdepim still in pkgdb. Those have to be resolved or 
portupgrade will puke. Unfortunately, I didn't resolve those 
dependencies until after I built arts and kdelib from ports. At 
that  point I followed the top part of step 3. 

I have a 1.13ghz AMD Thunderbird, I started the upgrade at 5:00 last 
night, it finished today at about 1:00PM. That upgrade took a long 
time to complete. 

Hope that will help.

Don

Installing on Compaq DL380 with IDA RAID

[Doug Poland]

Hello,

I'm having a problem installing 5.3-BETA2 on this box with a Compaq
Integrated SMART Array Controller.  The install CD detects the array
and I can partition, label, and install 5.3-BETA2 through the post-
install configuration.  However, when I reboot, the OS tells me, 
something to the effect, "OS not found".

I've tried installing the FreeBSD boot manager, a standard boot 
record, and to leave the MBR untouched.  I've also tried 4.9-RELEASE
just to see if there was a problem with 5.3-BETA2.  No matter what 
I try, I cannot get the Compaq BIOS to recognize the OS I just 
installed on the drive array.

I must be missing something obvious, but googling and perusing the
archives hasn't helped.

Thanks for your assistance...

Doug

RE: java install errors

[Randy Grafton]

Not to beat a dead horse but here are a couple of extra points to offer.

>From a Base/Minimal install of 5.2.1 I got a current ports tree with
cvsup-without-gui.

Next, I install linux-base:
cd /usr/ports/emulators/linux-base
make install clean
edit /etc/rc.conf to contain the line linux_enable="YES"

I then downloaded:
bsd-jdk14-patches-6.tar.gz (Got this from www.eyesbeyond.com)
j2sdk-1_4_2-bin-scsl.zip
j2sdk-1_4_2-src-scsl.zip
j2sdk-1_4_2_05-linux-i586.bin
j2sdk-sec-1_4_2-src-scsl.zip
(I got the j2sdk stuff from java.sun.com).
Once these files were downloaded, I placed them in /usr/port/distfiles.

Now cd to /usr/ports/java/jdk14 and do a make install clean.

I just did these steps in the listed order yesterday and after a few hours
of compiling java it was up.

nppd.so acrobat plugin hangs epiphany

[Frank DiPrete]

Hello
I am using nppd.so ad aplugin for PDF files in Epiphany.
Plugin installed from ports (pluginwrapper)
Epiphany 1.06
FreeBSD 5.2.1
Flash plugin works great,
Acrobat reader works great by itself.
When I attempt to view a PDF file in epiphany from a URL, nppd.so  
attempts to launch acrobat reader and hangs at the splash screen.
(Force quit to get out of it)

Anybody solve this one before?
TIA for thoughts.

It's the internal, NAT address, that my DHCP server/router

That doesn't really matter. What address is it broadcasting on?

Installation problem

[calebsbc]

Hi I am trying to install freebsd5.3 beta1 on my Toshiba Dynabook PIII
with 240mb ram and 40 gb hdd but every time the initial boot gets to the
USB driver it stops (freeze) the only thing I can do is hold down the
power button 5 secs. I have tried running with acpi disabled and tried
to disable the USB module, but it still doesn't work.
Any ideas.

If I am having this problem now, and I do get it to install will I have
the same problem when I try to use USB after install.

Any help would be great.
thanks

Regex with dump/restore not working

[Karl Heller]

I'm trying to do something very simple, that is, restore just mp3 files 
from a set of tapes.

However, none of the expressions I'm using will work..
restore -tvNf /dev/nsa1 expression; where epxressions I have tried are
*mp3
*.mp3
.*mp3
^*.mp3
^*.mp3$
^.*mp3$
It seems any expression consisting of .* will match anything on the 
tape.  Now, I've tried most of these through grep and egrep and they 
work there, but not on the restore..which says it wasn't located on the 
tape.

I'd rather not do a full restore of all other files (wav, etc...) which 
is about 1TB over 10 tapes.

So, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
Karl

Trying to install 5.3-Beta

[David E. Meier]

Hi folks,

I thought I'd give 5.3-Beta a try on a P4 and Intel board. Installation
(without X) goes smooth until I exit sysinstall for the first boot. The
system stops and prompts with the following output. I tried twice to
install it with different outcome:

1st try:

[thread 13]
Stopped at   kse_create+0x430:   addb   %al,0(%eax)
db>

2nd try:

[thread 100037]
Stopped at   w_data+0x180b:   addb   %al,0(%eax)
db>

I have no clue, what this is all about. If more specific information about
the hardware is needed to track down the problem I can append it, of
course.

The basename command gets expanded by the shell you use *BEFORE* find
has a change to run.
You can try playing tricks with escaping the backquotes, which is
probably going to result very quickly in ugliness like \\\`foo\\\` or
you can use find to "generate" a list of filenames which will be
"processed" by the rest of the command-line to spit out the rename
commands, and feed them to sh(1) for execution, i.e.:
$ ls -l

Re: java install errors

[T Kellers]

I have (had) exactly that same error on an 8-27-2004 clean build of RELENG-5.

I was pressed for time, though, and just went to another similar RELENG-5 box 
(that had jdk already installed) and pkg_create -b a jdk package archive.  It 
installed fine on the machine where the build had failed.

the uname -a of the successful machine shows an 8-28-2004 date, but the jdk 
port was successfully built on that machine way back in the days of 5-CURRENT 
(sometime in June, I think)

The simplest thing to do is to make the anonymous FTP area readable by
the ftp UID, but not writable.  Assuming your ftp user also has ftp as
it's primary group:

# chown -R root:ftp ~ftp/pub
# chmod -R o+rwX,g-w+rX,o-rwx ~ftp/pub

should do the trick, assuming you're going by the comments towards the
end of ftpd(8) man page on how to lay out the anonymous FTP area.

If you need to create a group 'ftp' use:

# pw group add -n ftp -g 21 -M root

and to make that the primary group of the ftp user:

# pw user mod -n ftp -g ftp

Cheers,

Matthew

FreeBSD 5.2.1 is the release version from the RELENG_5_2 branch.  If
you cvsup to the latest on that branch you'll get 5.2.1 release plus
any security patches that have been issued in the mean time.

Note however that the process leading to 5.3-RELEASE is underway,
aiming to culminate in early October with 5.3-RELEASE (the RELENG_5_3
branch) and around the same time 5.3-STABLE (ie. declaring the
RELENG_5 branch STABLE).  Right now the RELENG_5 branch will get you
5.3-BETA2, one of a series of weekly beta test versions intended to be
released up until 5.3-RELEASE.

Note that 5.3-RELEASE will be a full production release, unlike
5.2.1-RELEASE which is the last of the technology preview releases.
You'ld be well advised to upgrade to RELENG_5_3 once it's available
since support on the RELENG_5_2 branch will be dropped fairly shortly
afterwards.

The current branch is now actually 6-CURRENT as of a few weeks ago.
You almost definitely don't want that.

There is also the RELENG_4 or 4.10-STABLE branch, which is by no means
obsolete just yet.  There are plans for at least one and possibly two
more 4.x releases, and support on some of the 4.x branches will
continue for a year or so after then.

Cheers,

Matthew

Mac filtering with ipfw2

[Steve Quezadas]

Hello,
 
I have tried and tried and tried to get mac filtering to work with
ipfw2. I have tried the usual sources (Google Groups, google, mailling
list, man pages, etc). Here it goes:
 
I basically want to allow traffic to come from one mac address. I am
trying to get the following rule to work:
 
ipfw add accept tcp from any to any MAC any 10:20:30:40:50:60
 
Yes, ipfw2 is on my freebsd system. This rule is basically: "allow
traffic from mac address 10:20:30:40:50:60 to anywhere on the
network".
 
What am I doing wrong?
 
- Steve

CVSup on current branch questions.

[Tom Connolly]

I just installed FreeBSD 5.2.1 and I'm a little confused about the branches.
>From my research I have deduced that this is a current branch and that there
is no stable branch.  Is this correct?  I would like to CVSup the most
stable version of 5.2.1 source as well as the ports.  Can someone explain to
me how exactly to do this?  I've tried to CVSup the ports using the sample
supfile provided but none of my packages seem to build.

 

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

Everyone has read access to /etc/opiekeys, isn't that all that program

Yes, those tutorials are excellent. Kilgard's `OpenGL programming for
the X Window System' also makes a good start if you prefer dead tree
documentation, although the Motif stuff is not that useful these days,
but the basics remain the same.

I'd say FreeBSD is almost on par with Linux with regards to 3D hardware
acceleration, the exception being high end ATi cards which only work
with ATi's closed source drivers. All cards supported by the DRI open
source drivers work fine in FreeBSD. I haven't noticed performance
difference between Arch Linux and FreeBSD 5.3 when it comes to OpenGL
apps. Ironically, my little SDL benchmarks performed better on the BSDs,
even when one of the CPUs was busy. Could be a scheduler side effect,
not sure.

All modern toolkits allow integration with OpenGL these days, be it SDL
or GTK+/Qt if you need something more feature rich. I see little reason
not to use them.

Looks like the user that is running cyradm does not have permission to
open it's user db.

Again here the log seems to suggest that the user - possibly cyradm could
not open the user db

If this is where the information is kept then perhaps you would either
need to change the permissions here or run your imap program as root
which is probably not the optimal setup.

Hello!

I'm using pptpd (PoPToP) on my server to enable clients on LAN to access
internet (DSL connected to ethernet card on server). That works perfectly.
Users dial VPN to the server,log in and can surf freely.
Now, I would like to enable internet users to access LAN resources. Server
has a registered DNS name, and is pingable from the internet. Simple VPN
connection doesnt work-internet clients connect to server,but can not access
(ping) LAN users.
This is pptpd configuration:

/usr/local/etc/pptpd.conf:

option /etc/ppp/ppp.conf
localip 172.16.99.1
remoteip 172.16.99.15-113

-
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf

papchap:
set device PPPoE:ed0

set mtu 1492
set ctsrts off

enable lqr

set log phase tun

add default HISADDR
enable dns

set authname [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 enable chap
 disable pap
 enable proxy
 accept dns
 set dns 195.29.150.3 195.29.150.4
 set device !/etc/ppp/secure




papchap section of ppp.conf is DSL dialing portion, and pptp is the VPN
part.

So, how to enable internet users to access server LAN via VPN, and keep LAN
users's capability to access internet via VPN?

Thank You VERY much!

opiekeys and IMAP

[Chris]

Hi all,
Having trouble with security features, I think, that I can't seem to
resolve. I have a fresh install of 4.10 from FTP and am trying to set
up Cyrus IMAP with Squirrelmail front end. I was following the guide
at http://www.cse.ucsc.edu/~venkat/tutorial1.html, more for reference
to FreeBSD as I've completed this mail setup on Linux a couple of
times ( I  admit I could have been lucky :P  ).

So, anyway, I get things installed and configured as I have before and
test my IMAP as the 'cyrus' user and that all works. But when I try to
log into the 'cyradm' utility to create mailboxes, I get this:

%cyradm localhost
Password: 
Segmentation fault
%

with these log entries:
(This is when I first start the 'cyradm localhost')
Aug 30 16:47:40 vzwmail imapd[13037]: OTP unavailable because can't
read/write key database /etc/opiekeys: Permission denied

(and then when I enter my password:)

Aug 31 08:13:44 vzwmail imapd[14121]: Could not open db
Aug 31 08:13:44 vzwmail imapd[14121]: Could not open db
Aug 31 08:13:44 vzwmail imapd[14121]: no secret in database

DIGEST-MD5 [SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database]
Aug 31 08:13:47 vzwmail /kernel: pid 14120 (perl), uid 60: exited on signal 11

Here are the /etc/opie* Permissions:
-rw---  1 root  wheel  466 Aug 30 16:27 opieaccess
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  200 Aug 30 16:33 opiekeys

I do have some keys made with 'opiepasswd' (I hope I did it right):
#cat opiekeys
cyrus 0499 vz8252   ff3435334004cd3e  Aug 30,2004 16:30:23

#cat opieaccess
permit 172.16.0.0 255.255.0.0  (my internal network)

Only thing I changed in my imapd.conf was this from install (it was auxprop):  
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd

and I made a passwd for the cyrus user also using saslpasswd2 program

I hope this mess all makes sense :) I don't know what to do at this
point. I don't understand this opeykeys things very well at all. Any
assistance is greatly appreciated!

The basename command gets expanded by the shell you use *BEFORE* find
has a change to run.

You can try playing tricks with escaping the backquotes, which is
probably going to result very quickly in ugliness like \\\`foo\\\` or
you can use find to "generate" a list of filenames which will be
"processed" by the rest of the command-line to spit out the rename
commands, and feed them to sh(1) for execution, i.e.:

$ ls -l
total 0
-rw-rw-r--  1 keramida  wheel  - 0 Aug 31 18:33 koko.dist
-rw-rw-r--  1 keramida  wheel  - 0 Aug 31 18:33 lala.dist

$ find . -name \*.dist | \
  awk '{ printf "mv \"%s\" `basename \"%s\" .dist`\n",$0,$0; }'

mv "./lala.dist" `basename "./lala.dist" .dist`
mv "./koko.dist" `basename "./koko.dist" .dist`

$ find . -name \*.dist | \

Hi Oscar

Check the installation notes for 4.10 at:
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.10R/installation-i386.html

You'll need 16Mbytes of memory for the install and you'll need to
make a custom "pared-down" kernel to get it to run in 8Mbyte.

Also, there is much more to the installation than what is included
on the two floppies, so you'll need a modem and internet connection
on that serial port.

I'd recommend fitting your HD to another PC and install the OS and
build a custom kernel there and then fit it back in your toshiba.

We are not supposed to answer technical questions on this list as
they are all supposed to go to [EMAIL PROTECTED] where all the

Good luck to you, and come back here if you want to chat about

papchap section of ppp.conf is DSL dialing portion, and pptp is the VPN part.

So, how to enable internet users to access server LAN via VPN, and keep LAN users's 
capability to access internet via VPN?

Thank You VERY much!

Re: newest kdelibs fails to build

[Steven Friedrich]

I failed to mention that I'm running 4.10-STABLE on this box.

Also, I have a second box and I cvsupped it and it fails to build kdelibs too. 
Only THIS time, I simply went to the port directory, 
i.e., /usr/ports/x11/kdelibs3 and invoked make.  On the other system, I 
followed the procedures in UPDATING (which has portupgrade -a as part of step 
3 or 4), and now that system doesn't have any kde. So the second system is 
still running KDE 3.2.3 and the first box is blown out of the water.

Here are my auto tool versions:
autoconf-2.13.000227_5  =  up-to-date with port
autoconf-2.53_3 =  up-to-date with port
autoconf-2.59_2 =  up-to-date with port
automake-1.5_2,1=  up-to-date with port
automake-1.8.5_2=  up-to-date with port

Re: Is any documents about freebsd Fix-it CD (disc2)?

The Fix-it CD (or floppy disk for that matter) is basically a self
contained FreeBSD system-on-a-CD.  When you boot it up, it leaves you
in what is essentially a single user shell.

Now, if you have plenty of unix knowledge this gives you everything
you need in order to fix just about any problem (beyond hardware
failure) that can prevent a system booting up to single user mode
itself.

Unfortunately, if you don't know your way around fsck(8), fdisk(8),
bsdlabel(8), newfs(8), mount(8) and various other commands from
section 8 of the manual, then you're not going to have a very pleasant
experience with the Fix-it disk.

Learn the nitty-gritty low-level parts of administering FreeBSD, and
you'll get everything you need to use the Fix-it disk effectively.
There's plenty of documentation on that sort of thing: from the
handbook and the system manual pages to several published books and
all manner of on-line resources.

Cheers,

Matthew

Re: Is any documents about freebsd Fix-it CD (disc2)?

[Subhro]

A fixit Cd is a special media which contains a LIVE FreeBSD
filesystem. If your system refuses to boot due to some reason, then
you can use the fixit CD to boot into the system and fix it. For using
the FIXIT CD, boot from the regular CDROM (ie the first cd) and select
to repair the installation. When it asks for a Fixit media then you
need to replace the regular installation CDROM with the Fixit media
and fix the system.

S.

Re:

Did you select your installation media to be CDROM? If yes then
probably it is a misburnt CD. Try reburning the CD and it will work.

Not my intent to join in beating you about the head and shoulders, but
what some folks have been trying to say (perhaps tersely, granted) is
that you're writing to people who (1) all have lots of things to do in
the Real World(tm), (2) have far less idea of how you think the
documentation should read than you do, and (3) if they share your ideas
about what the installer should show, which is not certain, haven't had
time to do anything about it.  Particularly regarding the installer, it
would appear that the change you want is either not trivial, not a
priority, or both.  

Here's how you ought to proceed:

Regarding the documentation, read the Handbook and any other sources you
can find regarding submitting a "patch" (a requested change) to the
docs, do so, and see if someone with authority to make ("commit") the
change agrees with you.

Regarding the installer, see if you can find someone (reading the
freebsd-hackers mailing list might be a place to start) interested in
and capable of making the types of changes you envision, who has time to
spend on the project.

Otherwise, things will remain as they are (actually not horrible from my
point of view - absolutely there is a learning curve, but I strangely
enjoy that sort of thing), since, as others have pointed out, you're
dealing with volunteers.

Hope this helps,

Jud

Sir,

 

When I was trying to install Free BSD from CD, I got a message as mentioned below.

“Unable to get package / INDEX file from selected media”

Why this message is displayed. How can we solve this problem?

Please send a reply or documents to solve such problems.

Re: Variable length packets?

[Lucas (a.k.a T-Bird or bsdfan3)]

I'll try using __attribute__ ((packed)) on the declaration of struct 
packet_t.

In the last episode (Aug 30), Lucas (a.k.a T-Bird or bsdfan3) said:
I am trying to implement a custom protocol that sends and receives
variable-length packets on top of TCP/IPv4.  The problem is that the
length field of the packet is silently being mangled first becoming 0
and then getting turned into a very large number (about 2-3 billion).
The length field is a u_int32_t and I am using the byteorder
routines.  Source code snippets follow:
--decl of struct packet_t--
struct packet_t
{
 u_int16_t num;
 u_int32_t len;
 char data[0];
};
If these are different OSes, the structure may be packed differently.
There's almost certainly two bytes of padding between num and len to
ensure that len is 32-bit aligned, for example.
If you run ktrace on your client (or server), the kdump output will
include a hexdump of all data read or written, which might help you
determine what's going wrong.

Hm, that's a matter of personal preference. I prefer ports, despite

portupgrade -a will not work in this case, use the instructions in
/usr/ports/UPDATING, which the OP did.

Right now I'm in the same process of upgrading KDE on 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9
and kdelibs succeeded. Although I'm not sure if it helps: check out
the autoconf and automake versions on your machine, possibly reinstall
them.

RE: xf86config for Toshiba satellite pro laptop

[Vaughan Moore]

Thanks Kevin!

One of my problems was the listing for the savage driver and chipset were
not working well together.  Using the text version of the configuration
program took the chipset line out when I selected the generic Savage driver.
That fixed it!  Thanks so much for your help!

Sounds like it.  Wonder why?  Are you running the program with root

Well, this is pretty common.  Many desktop monitors don't give such
information, either, and you either Google for it or guess, usually.  What
happens if you call "startx", or have you?

The most obvious one I can think of is that, IIRC, the driver for the
Savage chipsets is "savage", not "s3".  But I could be wrong; can't
remember ever trying X with the "savage" driver.  Have you tried the
"vesa" driver?  Might do something for ya...

Secondly, your Horizontal sync range isn't a range.  Perhaps opening
that up a bit would allow you to try it out.

Certainly there could be other issues as well.  I mentioned permissions
above, for one.  If you have the above in /etc/X11R6/XF86Config, if you
run "startx" you should get either a server running or some error output
in /var/log that might help...OTOH, I've never set up X on any laptop; I
don't know if it's unsafe to try with a relatively untested config
file.  But
the values look sane enough for a CRT display ...

RE: xf86config for Toshiba satellite pro laptop

[Vaughan Moore]

Robert,

Thanks so much!  You're right, I mixed the numbers up!  It's a 4260dvd.

Anyway, I got X up and running.  It took a lot of trial and error.  The
problem was 2 fold.  First, there's a bug in sysinstall.  I was getting a
"fail" error message every time because sysinstall was looking for the new
XF86Config file somewhere in the /etc folder.  However, the new file was
being written and put in the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 folder.  If everything had
been put in the file correctly then all I needed to do was type "startx".

However, that's where my second problem occurred.  I noticed that when I
changed settings for setting up X in the graphical interface for configuring
X, some of the lines would not be overwritten.  So, I would get a line like:

Driver 'vga'
Chipset 'savage IX'

and vise versa.  When I used the text version of the configuration program,
it seemed to rewrite the whole file with consistent data.  Anyway, I was
finally able to get it up and running - thanks to a few encouraging words
for the mailing list.  Thanks so much for responding!

Vaughan

Did you mean a 4260dvd?  I cannot find anything on a 4620dvd.

If you had a slight case of dyslexia or maybe a little fat fingering, :o) I
may
be of some help. I have FreeBSD 5.3Beta1 loaded on a HP Pavillion N5310.

I checked the specs on the Toshiba Pro 4260dvd (attached pdf) and it has the
same video driver as my HP. i.e. s3 Savage IX.

So, FWIW, Here are the important bits from my xorg.conf

Section "Monitor"
HorizSync   31.5 - 80
VertRefresh 55 - 61

Section "Device"
Identifier  "Card0"
Driver  "savage"
VendorName  "S3 Inc."
BoardName   "86c270-294 Savage/IX-MV"
BusID   "PCI:1:1:0"


Section "Screen"
DefaultDepth24

SubSection  "Display"
Viewport0 0
Depth   24
Modes   "1024x768"  "800x600"
>


I really hope this helps. At one time I had either Lindows (Linspire) or
SuSE
loaded on this computer. That is where I found the horizontal and vertical
data.

Plagarize whenever you can!

You might also try pciconf -lv to see if your board name and bus id are
correct.

Best of luck

Robert

vinum root issue on 5.3-Beta2

[Chad Ziccardi]

I'm working on setting up a mirrored root filesystem as explained in:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/vinum-root.html
I've gotten it to boot then noticed something broken about it on my setup.
More info on my setup is at the bottom of this message.
If it boots to the vinum partition it does not properly load vinum.
How to explain that better..
booting normal as described in the handbook (loader.conf settings)
it appears to only read ad0s1h for data, thus never fully comes up.
I get among the various warnings (a slice is missing!)
vinum: incompatible sector sizes.  m-root.p1 has 0, m-root has 512.  Ignored.
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/vinum/m-root
vinum -> ld
D vinumdrive0   State: up   /dev/ad0s1h A: 0/1023 MB (0%)
D vinumdrive1   State: referenced   unknown A: 0/0 MB
since it can't see vinumdrive1 the plex and subdisks are faulty.

However booting to the a slice without using vinum (removed from loader.conf)
booted up on ad0s1a(or ad0s1h)(half of the mirror)
then doing vinum start after logging in I get:
vinum: reading configuration from /dev/ad2s1h
vinum: updating configuration from /dev/ad0s1h
Aug 31 05:55:06  kernel: vinum: reading configuration from /dev/ad2s1h

D vinumdrive0   State: up   /dev/ad0s1h A: 0/1023 MB (0%)

Is this a known issue? Is there something wrong with how I've set it up?

In which case you're good to go.  The BIOS need have no knowledge of a
data drive.  All the BIOS needs to do is read in the kernel and kick
off the boot sequence.  FreeBSD will scan all the devices on bootup
and discover your new drive for itself.

Sorry that was a typo. The ports and packages install the startup scripts in
the right path, but still they are not started at bootup time.
Googling gives a few url's with the same problem but not the solution :(
