Problem with mount_smbfs (not working for me)
Hi. I run into a problem with "mount_smbfs". Trying to mount a SMB-share on a AS/400 from a FreeBSD 4.10 or FreeBSD 5.3-RC1 gives me the error: mount_smbfs: unable to open connection: syserr = Connection reset by peer Well, i dont like Mr. Peer, and, trying to reach the SMB-share via "smbclient" works perfectly (but i need a mount on my FreeBSD-System, so thats no choice). Also if i try to mount the SMB-share from a SuSE Linux Box (with mount -t smbfs) it will work, as a result, i think the problem is not the share, it must be "mount_smbfs". The syntax i tried was: mount_smbfs -I 10.4.1.222 //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/sfimages /mnt also with the FQDN: mount_smbfs -I suedzwo.suedfac.com //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/sfimages /mnt After typing the password, the error message above came up. Thats it. So, the question is, whats wrong with my syntax, or what could cause the problem? On my FreeBSD 4.10 box i also have the following stuff compiled in the kernel: options NETSMB options NETSMBCRYPTO options LIBMCHAIN options LIBICONV options SMBFS Thanks in advance. asg ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: FreeBSD + OpenGL
Jeremy W. Sheaffer wrote: I just purchased an emachines laptop with an amd64 and an ati radeon 9600 which is now running FreeBSD 5.3-BETA4 beautifully. I need to be able to run OpenGL programs using, among others, the ARB_vertex_program, ARB_fragment_program, and ARB_occlusion_query extensions. These are all part of OpenGL 1.5, which is implemented by the current version of Mesa, Mesa-6.2. Xorg, as shipped with FreeBSD uses Mesa-5.1 as the renderer, so I upgraded from source to Xorg 6.8.1, which is current stable. This uses Mesa-6.1, which *should* give me the functionality I need--but it doesn't. glxinfo tells me my renderer version is OpenGL '1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.1)'. So I manually replaced the Mesa subtree in Xorg with Mesa-6.2. 6.2 is primarily a bugfix upgrade, but I hoped. I also went through the Mesa source and made certain that all conditionally compiled code that involves the extensions I need are built, and then rebuilt Xorg. Still no dice. Version string is '1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.2)', and the extension I need are not being exported. I'm not certain that this is actually a FreeBSD question, but it touches on three different systems, so I thought I would try here first. Does anyone have any experience with programmable graphics under FreeBSD. I realize, of course, that the drivers aren't there to really support my card--I could care less if I get acceleration! Mesa exports the functionality in software, and I need to be able to use it. Any suggestions? Jeremy Using OpenGL depends on 3 things: program support, os, drivers. FreeBSD does not have the newest port of Mesa, but you can get around that easily enough. Ofcourse your software would have support. This leaves drivers on FreeBSD. I know for a fact the drivers are getting a little old, but I am not capable of updating them. Here is an example(not that everyfile need to be days old to support what you have): http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/drm/radeon_cp.c ->9 months, 4 weeks ago http://freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dri/drm/shared/radeon_cp.c ->10 days, 23 hours ago Thats just half of it. Forget about anything over the R200 core(radeon 8500, the low 9000s are just variations on the R200 and work too) if you can not use the precompiled ati linux drivers. I hate to say it, but go to linux or windows since that is what you need to get yor work done. I recommend Gentoo, its very BSD like. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

question: how do I burn a UFS filesystem onto a CDROM
Hi all, I wish to burn a CDROM that I can mount and show people that "yes there really is readable data on it" BUT I dont want it to be readable in a windows host. So I am thinking that instead of the usual mkisofs routine that makes a cd9660 filestructure I would just burn a CDROM with the data in a UFS structure... NB the actual cd burner is in a winblows laptop so I am also thinking that I need to create an .iso image somehow that I can burn in one pass on the burner pc, even though the disk will not be accessible to that host once burnt. The question is : how ? I'm guessing that a way may be to create a vnode file system, copy the data to it and then somehow make it into a burnable disk image, but thats where the guessing runs out. Or am I off the track?

Actually, I hvan't heard of a brooktree 484 card, don't you mean 848? Seriously, if the card is using the supplied BT driver from FreeBSD, then you have the luxury of using any of the BT chipsets (878 is popular and readily available). Failing that, it really depends on how your application is accessing the capture device. If it is just copying data from the raw device, then you can use the Hauppauge PVR series cards which I absolutely love, having used them in a surveillance application myself recently. IF the card you are looking at really is the 848 chipset, then you should be able to use any of the brooktree cards without needing to change the driver at all.

I created a script that runs blackbox and bbkeys simultaniously (blackbox & bbkeys), then pointed blackbox.desktop to the script. It works, but I have to exit blackbox and _then_ exit bbkeys to return to the KDM login screen (a little less annoying). Is there a better way of doing this?

Re: Boot Loader
I had a similar problem after installing 5.3b7. My solution (win2K & 5.3) was to use the ms boot manager. To do this, copy /boot/boot1 to c:\, naming it whatever you want, eg FreeBSD_boot1.bsd. Edit boot.ini to contain a line like: c:\FreeBSD_boot1.bsd="Freebsd 5.3" In order to edit boot.ini under windows you will need to effectively chmod it: attrib -s -r -h boot.ini edit it attrib +s +r +h boot.ini (not strictly needed, but a good idea) You can restore to boot manager with the install disks/cd for windows. Don't know whether this is the best solution or not; but it is one that works. Gary Andrew Smith wrote: Ok I'm stuck... I'm trying to get Windows XP and FreeBSD 4.10 to dual boot.

Re: external hard drive
I just tried putting vfat in the fstab for file type having just the Buslink drive connected, not the small drive enclosure. Using mount -a, I got "Inappropriate file type or format" I'm logged in as root. I am beginning to suspect that I installed too much software during this Install. It is being picked up, but I don't know how it's being interpreted. I'm beginning to think that FBSD thinks it's a clock. (Tic-Toc.) Anyway, I just realized that I installed more software this time, then at any previous time. I posted my dmesg, fstab, and rc.conf files earlier. I think that I may have over done it and created a conflict somewhere. I think that I'll give this a rest, then simply wipe the disk and re-install everything when I get time again. As far as external drives goes, the Buslink 40 GB hard drive seems to be extremely good. It stands up to being turned on 24 hours per day and 7 days per week while bouncing around in my truck on a wood shelf. (It's about 3 or 4 years old. Possibly older.) Usually, all of the systems can find this drive. But drive closures for old hard drives, this one that I have from CompUSA seems to do a good job. It comes with a leather case to fasten to my belt, if I wanted it there. I mentioned the problems with Win 98SE. (Conflict between USB CD ROM and this drive.) None of the Linux distros that I've tried could see it. (Slackware, Debian, Red Hat 9, Fedora 2, SUSE Live CD, Knoppix.) The only UNIX system that could use it was FreeBSD, and that was when I had FreeBSD installed last Spring. This drive has one of those special USB connection cables which are used on some cameras and small devices. USB on computer end and a very small plug on the hard drive end. The cable wears out every every once in a while. If you get on, get an extra cable. (Note: Right now, the cable seems to work OK when I hook it into my Toshiba laptop, which runs Win XP. So, I don't think that I have a problem with the cable.) This will go out the next time that I hook into the Internet. Messages will probably cross...

CTM first time user needs your help
Good day, I have a workstation at office but I can only access the internet through our proxy server. Someone in this list have the same situation which was told to use CTM. I'm currently using 5.3RC1 and would want to keep in sync with the latest sources of 5.3 and recompile my system. I already have the sources and just want to update it. Upon reading the instructions I went to ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CTM and found these directories: cvs-cur ports-cur src3-cur src4-cur src5-cur src-cur Here are what confuses me: 1. First, if I choose to enter the src5-cur directory above, which file would I pick, the last/latest one dated NOV 1? 2. What are those gzipped files and why are those older files still exists? 3. Another thing is I can't really understand how the CTM process works. Mind if you give me some brief insight on how I will be able to get the latest sources? I'm thinking perhaps its like the bittorrent system wherein the torrent file contains the information where to get the files. How about the CTM?

Upgrading 5.2.1 to 5.3R2
Ok, so I upgraded, ran mergemaster, and merged /etc/group (and /etc/master.passwd I think) via mergemaster. I merged those files to retain my non root user account. I rebooted, and I haven't been able to log into my non root account. I tried to readd the account via adduser, but it says that the user already exists. So I tried rmuser, and it says that the user doesn't exist. So I manually removed the account name from /etc/group, /etc/master.passwd, /etc/passwd, and tried to add the user, via adduser. When it tries to add the user, it fails (dont remember the message right now). Anyone has any suggestions on how I can get the old user account back?? N.B. I did back up /etc before mergemaster...

The packages in the release directory are, I believe, a shapshot of the ports tree at the time the release was made. I don't know how often the -STABLE and -CURRENT packages are updated or why linux-base-8 isn't in them. I don't see packages for 5.3-RELEASE or -CURRENT either.

WLAN Freeradius Auth
Dear all, I've setup my little hotspot for our office. And offcourse for security reason, only mac address listed in radius users can have internet access. With Lucent Orinoco AP-1000, i've checked enable radius access control and then setup my free radius. My radius setting : 00601d-f4ae15 Auth-Type = Local, Password = "testing123" Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Framed-Routing = Broadcast-Listen, Framed-MTU = 1500, Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP but when i try to change the setting, for testing only : 00601d-f4ae15 Auth-Type = Reject, Password = "testing123" Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Framed-Routing = Broadcast-Listen, Framed-MTU = 1500, Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP They still can have an access to outside, my radius log says : Auth: Login incorrect: [00601d-f4ae15/testing123] (from client ap port 0). and i try to ping to that station, it says reply : PING 192.168.0.254 (192.168.0.254): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.0.254: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.840 ms my question is, if mac address not listed in radius users or in REJECT mode, they shouldn't get an access to Access Point, and offcourse they can't have ip address, but in my case, they still have an static ip address and they can access to LAN and internet too.

blackbox, bbkeys, and .xinit...
Greets, This is something I haven't had to mess with before, and I'm confused by the docs... I have several WMs installed on my FreeBSD (4.10) desktop, one of which is blackbox. Is there a way to uniquely state that if blackbox loads, then bbkeys should load as well? The instructions say to add the command to my ~/.xinit file, but if I do that, then bbkeys will load with whatever I start (If I understood it correctly. Like I said, I've not had to do this before).

Port for Motorola cell phones (V60c)?
I've been searching the ports tree and the freebsd.org site for anything similar to gnokii or scmxx, but for Motorola phones, ideally the V60c. I haven't found anything. Is there a port which will allow me to upload and download my phone's address book, settings, etc.? I'd rather not have to dust of my Windoze machine just to back up my phone's address book.

Re: Really Dumb Question
Thanks for the suggestions. I figured it out, su was no longer suid root. I forgot, I had to copy /usr back and forth a few times when setting it up on vinum. Everything is cool, I have my user in their own group as primary and also in wheel. Dan Tim Tonway wrote: This is probably a dumb question. I need to add a user that can su to root. So I add the user with adduser, invite the user into the wheel group (GID 0) then add the user to the wheel group in /etc/group su still fails. What am I missing? It's go to be something really dumb. It might help to know what error you are getting. It is impossible to know what exactly you tried and what exactly you saw as the result, so it is difficult to know what to tell you. But, a comment anyway. You do not need to make the primary group be 'wheel', although I suppose you can if you like. The primary group for a user is the one they are assigned in the /etc/passwd (master.passwd) file. It is the one you give them with adduser. I would suggest making the user's primary group, whatever group you would make them for other than the 'su' consideration. Then, add them to the wheel group as one of their secondary groups by editing the /etc/group file and adding the user on to the wheel group. If, for example, the username is privuser, just add ',privuser' on to the end of the line defining the wheel group (minus the quote marks and without a space before the comma). Just edit /etc/group with vi. This way, you can move the user in to and out of the wheel group without affecting group ownership of the user's files. If you make the user's primary group to be wheel, the user's files will most likely end up with wheel for group ownership and you would have to change all that if you wanted to remove that user from the wheel group, but not delete the account. jerry You can also use pw for this.

IPSEC (5.3-RC2) -- IKE traffic problem.
Hi, I'm attempting to get an encrypted tunnel going between two machines. Before I start pasting away my configs, tcpdump logs, racoon logs, etc. I would like to ask the following question: I've read that 5.2.1 had broken IPSEC, such that IKE traffic (port 500) was not bypassed (or something along those lines). A full thread can be found at http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&threadm=257C203C-8104-11D8-9902-00039303AB38_mac.com%40ns.sol.net&rnum=10&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Dan%2520acceptable%2520proposal%2520found%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DN%26tab%3Dwg Does anybody know if this has now been resolved in 5.3RC2? Do I need to start doing special things to make IPSEC work? Or am I just a bonehead who has screwed his config up somehow?

Hi Erik, The best thing you can do is read /usr/src/UPDATING and follow the procedure for upgrading located towards the end of the file. One thing it will tell you is to run "mergemaster -p" before going into single-user mode. I didn't see you mention doing that. Instead of rebooting into single-user mode, why don't you do "shutdown now", that will put you into single user mode. OK, you want to make buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel while in multiuser mode. When that's done, go to single-user mode, run "mergemaster -p". If it asks what to do about an existing /var/tmp/temproot, you want to delete it, it's existing from a previous upgrade and you don't want to use it. Deleating it will allow it to be repopulated. Then, you can "cd /usr/src" and run "make installworld". When that's done, while still in single user mode, you can run "mergemaster" or "mergemaster -i". You will be warned about an existing /var/tmp/temproot. Again, you want to delete it so it can be correctly repopulated. After that, my advice is to just install everything mergemaster puts up to be taken care of. Finally, you can reboot, or "shutdown -r now", login as root, and unless you did something strange that you can't remember doing, it should work. Don -- Donald J.

ipfw/dhclient conundrum
I have a circular conundrum involving the sequence of boot events that I'm trying to solve, and I'd like to know if any other users have found a solution to this, or what some suggestions may be. First, I'd like to note that I've been using 4-STABLE for a while, and I only recently started running 5-STABLE after my disk cratered. So I am still getting used to some of the new features of the system. The box in question uses dhclient to get an IP lease for the external link. The box must forward LAN traffic, and have a decent amount of protection, so ipfw natd and dhcpd services are also enabled. The conundrum I have is this: /etc/rc.d/ipfw needs to be run after /etc/rc.d/dhclient. This is due to the fact that I do not have a static IP lease, and my firewall script determines the external interface's ip address with ifconfig. However, if /etc/rc.d/dhclient runs before /etc/rc.d/ipfw, with the firewall at default-to-deny and no rules added to pass dhcp autoconfigure traffic, dhclient cannot acquire a lease. But to run the firewall script, dhclient needs to have acquired a lease so the rules make sense. But to run dhclient, ipfw needs to have run... et cetera ad nauseum. My interim fix is to add net.inet.ip.fw.enable=0 to sysctl.conf and remove the requirement of ipfw from the dhclient rc script. When rc takes off at boot time, the firewall is disabled and dhclient runs before ipfw. When ipfw runs, it enables the firewall sysctl and executes my firewall script, which gets sensible results since a lease for the external interface has been acquired. But then something screwy happens... sometime after netoptions runs (I'd include more detail if I had it), net.inet.ip.fw.enable is set back to zero... so my "fix" still requires operator intervention for the firewall and address translation to be enabled. I'd like to know a more sane way of correcting this behavior. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Found only a reference to 3com 3CP5609 not much on google, but one OpenBSD link compained about it. I would like to get a feedback if anyone had a successful experience with one of the following: Hayes ; Zoom ; Airlink+ ; Broadxent. As a last resort I don't mind to use an external modem with serial connection. It's just bulky that's why I'm avoiding it. regards, The general answer (at least in the past [was/is]) that PCI modems with controller chips built in (which are getting a tad rare these days) are fine; most PCI modems, though, are "Winmodems", built to utilize some software interface that is M$-only (or something like that) in order to put the controller load on the CPU. Therefore, if you can verify that your Hayes, Zoom, Airlink or Broadxent modem is not "controllerless" you'd have a chance of being able to use it. A potential alternative: a port exists (/usr/ports/comms/ltmdm) that allows FBSD to talk to the so-called "winmodems" that have a Lucent chipset. I know little about it personally, though --- I have opted to use USR serial modems with FreeBSD thus far.

I personally don't feel that any OS is safer then the other. It's just what the administrator does. A Linux guru can't secure a Windows machine as good as a Windows guru can, and vica versa. One can say that a particular OS attracks more experienced administrators. Perhaps. But again it's the administrator which is the crucial fact of an OS being secure or not. It's rather easy to say that Windows is less secure then Linux or BSD because there are more viruses/exploits for Window. Well, I think that services like Sendmail and Apache can contain more exploits then Windows, to be honest. Of course, I can't prove anything, but that's just my personal feeling about it.

raidframe access
Hi Everybody I have a nas server that uses a modified kernel of FreeBSD that has a raidframe for three disks, one disk died and in the process, I don't know how, the administrator password got lost and the nas server now is up with only two disks, but with no access to the administrator account from the web. I'd like to mount the raidframe disks to change de password from a live cd, I have tried with live CDs from 5.2.1 and 4.10 but seems that the kernel must be modified to access the raidframe. Tried generating a freesbie live cd with 5.2.1 and device raidframe options RAID_AUTOCONFIG But did't generated the raid devices to be mounted Or don't know how to do it. :-( I have access to ad0s1 and ad0s3 and cracked the master.password but the password did not work out from the web. I'd like to know what version of FreeBSD would work with raidframe. Or maybe other solutions that I can not see at the moment. The server do not accept booting in single mode either, tried boot -s and said boot not found I tried kernel -s and almost entered, but freezed when asked for the shell :-( Thank you for your time.

On the other hand they did a security survey around december 2003/january 2004, and IIRC, their results were *pretty* similar to what this study shows. I do believe, the heise-study also mentioned that BSD-systems were not only rarely attacked because of being so rare, but that the rate of successful attacks against BSD-based system was lower than with, say Linux and Windows. I for one do believe that Linux gets aways so badly not because Linux inherently insecure or "bad", but because many Linux-machines do not - that's my impression at least - receive the degree of administrative attention they would need. BSD - in my impression - attracts more experienced users/administrators than Linux, having become rather "mainstream". If you looked at the attacked Linux systems in more detail, I also assume you'd find the same to be true for Red Hat/Suse vs. Debian systems. I do believe that the same goes for windows - since it's so easy to handle, superficially, it will tend to be operated by less experienced admins in general. Just remember that all the NT-worms only got so successful because there uncounted unpatched systems out there...

Right, except it doesn't 'effectively erase' existing files on the CD-R; all of the files added to each session appear when you mount it.

Little oddity...
I recently upgraded from 5.1-Release to 5.3-Release and noticed a couple of odd things that perhaps someone can shed some light on. 1. The splash screen worked with 5.1 and now it doesn't with 5.3. I have the following in my kernel; device splash # Splash screen and screen saver support So, I tried doing the following; kldload /boot/kernel/splash_bmp.ko and got the following error; module_register_init: MOD_LOAD (splash_bmp, 0xc21a5810, 0) error 2 I could have swore I saw something in the handbook about it but I can't seem to find it now.

Well yes, you'll need a CD-RW to overwrite the first (after erasure), but you can keep on adding further ISO images to a CD-R (or CD-RW) until it's full, using mkisofs + burncd at least. Very handy here for certain types of backups, especially on a remote box visited weekly. My cdappend script's full of paranoid parameter and error checking and such, but is based on this simple and likely more illustrative one: #!/bin/sh # original googled at http://www.opennet.ru/base/sys/cd_session.txt.html # indecipherable Russian (including author's name) except for: if [ "$1" = "-n" ]; then echo -- New disk -- mkisofs -J -jcharset koi8-r $2 | burncd -m data - fixate else echo -- Add session -- msinfo=`burncd msinfo 2>&1 | sed "s/ //g"` sleep 3 mkisofs -M /dev/acd0c -C $msinfo -J -jcharset koi8-r -o tmp.iso $1 burncd -m data tmp.iso fixate rm tmp.iso fi It probably depends on the burner, but I found I had to add the below to reliably reset the device after burning on a 4.8-RELEASE system. YMMV. echo -n "CD " # eject / inject needed _after_ session (or reset?) cdcontrol -f $dev eject; echo -n "ejected ..

Thank you in advance. What exactly are you seeing when your FreeBSD box goes down? There should be output on the console, and there might be something logged in /var/log/messages. If you're seeing any mention of 'SEGV' or 'Signal 11' then start by suspecting your hardware. This can be due to bad memory, bad CPU or even something as simple as the system overheating. However, overheating more usually shows itself as the system suddenly blacking out as the thermal cutout operates. Note that it is quite possible for these sort of problems to only show up under FreeBSD and not other operating systems. It's a matter of pot luck as to whether any particular system gets bitten. For diagnosing memory problems, the memtest86 program is very useful (although it cannot guarrantee that it won't generate the occasional false negatives): http://www.memtest86.com/ If you can rule out hardware troubles and can't otherwise find the problem, see: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html Generating a traceback from a core dump is the sort of information necessary for a developer to debug the problem.

What exactly do you mean by 'state'. If you mean the STAT column in 'ps -aux' output, then that is documented in ps(1) -- % ps -aux | head -4 USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND root0 0.0 0.0 00 ?? DLs Tue03PM 0:00.00 (swapper) matthew 65033 0.0 0.1 512 384 p2 R+8:40AM 0:00.00 ps -aux matthew 65007 0.0 0.1 972 448 ?? Is8:38AM 0:00.00 /usr/local/libex Look for the description of the 'state' keyword. From the small sample above, 'DLs' means 'process in disk wait, pages locked in core, session leader'; 'R+' means 'Runnable process, process in foreground process group of its controlling terminal' and 'Is' means 'Idle process, process is session leader' Most of the state descriptions are pretty transparent. One thing that might not be obvious at first glance is the concept of 'session leaders' -- 'sessions' are the same thing as 'process groups' (see setsid(2), setpgid(2)). Generally your login shell will be a 'session leader' and all of the programs you run interactively will belong to that session. Daemon processes generally put themselves into their own sessions. On the other hand, one thing that is not at all well documented is the 'STATE' column in top(1) output. As far as I can tell, that state is either RUN for a process that is actually running at the moment, or the name of a procedure where the process is sleeping, waiting on IO or some other condition for the kernel to give it a time slot.
