Thanks, Joshua. Here's the requested stuff, starting with the output of
uname -a:






Next, the configuration file itself:


#
# GENERIC -- Generic kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/i386






# PCI Ethernet NICs that use the common MII bus controller code.
# NOTE: Be sure to keep the 'device miibus' line in order to use these

#device miibus # MII bus support








device vr # VIA Rhine, Rhine II






Finally, the error message:






../../../dev/usb/if_aue.c:105:23: miibus_if.h: No such file or directory


OK, you need to uncomment the device miibus line (marked above). It has to be
enabled if you want to enable VIA Rhine support, which you have in your
config.

   No dice.  I made the change to the file, uncommenting the device
   miibus line, and I receive the same error message.

RE: I can not install FreeBSD 5.3 in an old Pentium 100 MHz

2004-11-27 Thread Ted Mittelstaedt

See
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=acpi&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-
RELEASE
particularly the section:

 To disable the acpi driver completely, set the kernel environment vari-
 able hint.acpi.0.disabled to 1.

This should be done in the loader prompt.  When you get the message:

Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt.
Booting [kernel] in 9 seconds... _

hit any other key for the command prompt then turn off acpi.

If this doesen't work, try loading FreeBSD 4.10

Re: Custom Kernel

2004-11-27 Thread Hugh Ekeberg
I'm bit of a newbe myself and had the same problems. Finally I decided NOT to 
comment out those options in my copy of the GENERIC file which related to 
hardware options I don't have.

So if you have been commenting out all those hardware options in the kernel 
configuration file for hardware you don't have, then open a fresh copy of 
GENERIC and leave those options as they are.

So basically I left my copy of GENERIC alone, changing the first part only;

The original looks like this:

# $FreeBSD: src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC,v 1.420 2004/11/02 20:57:19 andre Exp $

machine  i386
#cpu  I486_CPU
#cpu  I586_CPU
#cpu  I686_CPU
ident   GENERIC

My copy looks like this:

# $FreeBSD: src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC,v 1.420 2004/11/02 20:57:19 andre Exp $

machine  i386
#cpu  I486_CPU
#cpu  I586_CPU
cpu  I686_CPU
ident  MY_COPY_CALL _IT_WHAT_EVER



I added some extra options related to sound and graphics and later I add some 
more once I feel more comfortable with FreeBSD.

From the command line, paste in the output of:

uname -a

Also, your /etc/make.conf would help, and, as mentioned so would your kernel 
config file. It's also not clear what you mean by "can't get the thing to 
make." Does it fail when you build, or when you install? I'm guessing you 
mean that the build itself failed. If you logged your build, send the 
relevant part as well, i.e., the part with the errors and some lines before 
it for context. If not, for future reference, consider logging your build 
(man script, or use make ... > /var/log/kernelbuild.out or something 
similar).

You have deleted or commented out parts of the GENERIC config that are
necessary for the rest of the options you have.

Start over from GENERIC.  Read the comments carefully.  Do not remove
things that you are not sure about.

I don't remember the source; but I recall reading that there are some

port 53 connection attempts from localhost

2004-11-27 Thread Thomas S. Crum - AAA Web Solution, Inc.
Here is the situation, I run bind as a root nameserver and all appears to be
operating normally (no apparent problems).  But, log_in_vain is reporting to
messages a few times per second that port 53 is being queried and nothing
"appears" to be listing on it. I monitored my forwarders ip addresses and
they reply fine.

I found a reference to search for "bind timeout problem", but could find
nothing that looked like any help.

Any ideas?

Couple of stats:
FreeBSD 4.10
BIND 8.3.7-REL
using 2 forwarders
127.0.0.1 in resolve.conf
log_in_vain="YES" in rc.conf

Well, maybe; is the laptop's IP assigned statically or
dynamically?
If static, I suppose
"allow ip from lap.top.id.addr to any keep-state out xmit tun0"
would be the thing. You can also specify the network:
"allow ip from any 192.168.0/24 to any keep-state out via tun0".

Toshiba laptop not recognizing usb nor cardbus

2004-11-27 Thread Stephen Corbesero

I have a recently purchased Toshiba laptop with FreeBSD 5.3x on it.
It works well, but neither my usb ports nor pc-card slot seem to
work.  Both seem to be recognized, but neither are available.

In the case of the usb, I can load usbd.  However, when I plug or
unplug usb devices in, neither happens.  I have used usbd in debugging
mode, and it doesn't notice when something is plugged or unplugged.

In the case of the pc-card, no /dev/card0 is created, so pccardd will
not start up.  

I have tried both the GENERIC kernel and various customized kernels.
I have tried tweaking some boot.loader hints, but to no avail.

I am including the output of my dmesg, and I would appreciate any help
or advice.  I have posted these two items to the problem reporting
database, but have not received any responses there.

Thanks in advance.

I belive /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf is the correct place to put port

In particular:

Remembering defines for port upgrades.

2004-11-27 Thread Adam Fabian
I've been sticking options like WITHOUT_TTF_BYTECODE_ENABLED=yes (for
freetype2) in /etc/make.conf.  It's been working, for the actual
building of the port.  The downshot is that it seems to drive the
package tools nuts. (portupgrade makes strange errors, make index
fails).  Is there any other/better way to remember build options so
that I don't have to remember them every time I build a port?

It's also possible that I've confused legitimate, tuneable knobs with
some kinds of reserved variables.  The suspect ones are USE_X11,
USE_ATHENA (but I specifically remember using that one for vim), and
USE_OPENSSL.

stty is the wrong program.  It doesn't handle remapping.
kbdcontrol(1) does, but that's for virtual terminals, not X.

Heh.  Nice program.  But there are a number of reasons why it's not
the one Josh is looking for:

1.  It doesn't seem to understand X.org (at least not the version I
just installed from the ports collection in
/usr/ports/x11/xkeycaps).  I get the message:

  A keyboard type was not specified, and the vendor ID string,
  "The X.Org Foundation" is not recognized.

2.  The real program is xmodmap(1).  xkeycaps is just a front end to
it, and that's what you need to run when you start X.  For
example, in my .xinitrc I have:

  xmodmap -e 'keysym Alt_L = Meta_L Meta_L'
  xmodmap -e 'keysym Home = Select Select'
  xmodmap -e 'remove mod5 = Scroll_Lock'

You can also put the translations in a file and get xmodmap to
read it.

The only hope for you is that the enable bit for acl was set, but
not yet read by the system. I think you have to reboot and then you
have a change that the acl bit is set and read.
Te best way is to have another freebsd system to set acl.
Or to choose another slice for your acl experiment.
The e-slice is easier to change, but its your choice

I guess you are right, acl is not enabled.
It is a spacial case, I think,. The a-slice gets mounted
immediatly after staring up the system and you cannot
umount it. You have to access it through another freebsd
system, let say with the "fixit disk". Or did you already had
a solution for that ?

Make sure you have usbd running and have set usbd_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf
 

Both of  these are done.
When a mouse is plugged in usbd should start moused to handle the input.
The debug output on your console should state ums0 being attached when the 
mouse is plugged in.

Check if your acl-option is working with "mount" ( no parameters )
It should give somthing like:
/dev/ad1s1g on /mnt (ufs, local, soft-updates, acls)
Then give the setfacl command on a file:
setfacl -m u::rwx,g:mail:rw file
Now you must have a + sign with the "ls -la" command.
I got error messages when I disabled or enabled acl
on a not-empty filesystem and made a directory listing.

Port 53 requests happening a few times per second

2004-11-27 Thread Thomas S. Crum - AAA Web Solution, Inc.
Here is the situation, I run bind as a root nameserver and all appears to be
operating normally (no apparent problems).  But, log_in_vain is reporting to
messages a few times per second that port 53 is being queried and nothing
"appears" to be listing on it. I monitored my forwarders ip addresses and
they reply fine.

I found a reference to search for "bind timeout problem", but could find
nothing that looked like any help.

Any ideas?

Couple of stats:
FreeBSD 4.10
BIND 8.3.7-REL
using 2 forwarders
127.0.0.1 in resolve.conf
log_in_vain="YES" in rc.conf
allow all from any to any via lo0 in ipfw

install & partitioning advice needed

2004-11-27 Thread baldyeti
Hello,

Using a FreeBSD 4.6 CD I have, I'd like to install on an
older system (P200). The machine has a 4 GB IDE drive and
another 4 Gb attached via SCSI. These seem to be recognised
as da0 and ad0. The SCSI adapter has no ROM, and is not
directly bootable. I thus suppose FreeBSD - and any OS under
the circumstances - needs at least one little boot slice on
the 1st (IDE) drive. I could free about 400 Mb on that drive,
in an extended partition. Can FreeBSD be started from an
extended partition, or will it need a primary one, and which
filesystem(s) needs reside on the startup disk, with which
recommended minimum size?

TIA,

Make sure you have usbd running and have set usbd_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf
When a mouse is plugged in usbd should start moused to handle the input.
The debug output on your console should state ums0 being attached when the 
mouse is plugged in.

Good luck,

Certainly a sensible point, but not the way I understood 'makedepend' to 
work.

As Conrad said, 'make' can be directed to compare the currency of the 
files upon which a particular product file (compiled object, library, 
executable, or other type) depends, so that all product files for which 
the components have changed _are_ rebuilt, but a maximum number of product 
files (i.e., unchanged objects being linked into a library) are 
unnecessarily rebuilt. Many of these rules I put in manually.

'make' only knows some 'generic' rules (what is done to change a *.c into 
a *.o, for example), plus the explicit dependencies I have written into my 
Makefile. 'makedepend' is a way to automatically generate the 
file-specific rules that can be deduced from a [source] file's own 
contents: usually those secondary files that are brought into it by 
'#include' pragmas. These auxiliary rules are written onto the Makefile 
and become part of it. These files are not necessarily separately 
compiled; I find your definition a bit misleading on this.

'makedepend' is given a list of files to scan, and places to look for 
included files. My 'depend' rule looks like this:

+++
depend:
makedepend -- $(CFLAGS) -- $(SRCS) -- $(INCLUDES)

# DO NOT DELETE THIS LINE -- make  depend  depends  on it.

+++

That funky last line really tells 'makedepend' where it should write the 
new rules onto my Makefile. Before using a Makefile on a group of sources, 
or when source files are added to the build, I remove all the generate 
rules which have been added below the '# DO NOT DELETE ...' line and 
rebuild the 'depend' target - which is the Makefile itself:

 $ make depend

Typical rules automagically added by 'makedepend' are:

+++
...
BufRing.o: ../Llcommon/SEBase.h StdAfx.h BufRing.h
Camera.o: ../Llcommon/SEBase.h StdAfx.h ../Llcommon/commonStruct.h
Camera.o: ../Llcommon/secureeye.h ../Llcommon/memCtrl.h
Camera.o: ../Llcommon/retCodes.h ../Llcommon/LiveShare.h Camera.h
Camera.o: ../Llcommon/Common.h Pump.h BufRing.h CamData.h Snap.h INet.h
Camera.o: Player.h
INet.o: ../Llcommon/SEBase.h StdAfx.h /usr/include/stdlib.h
...
+++

The effect of these added rules is that if I change [say] 'BufRing.h' then 
do 'make all', 'BufRing.c' and 'Camera.c' would be recompiled, but not 
necessarily 'INet.c'

'make' isn't very bright, but (like 'cpp') it can be _very_ handy.

To be more precise, it covers the case where the machine *is*
physically secure, but its console is not.  Obviously, if the machine
is sufficiently insecure that someone could boot off a floppy, it

named not sending notifies? (5.3)

2004-11-27 Thread J.D. Bronson
I noticed that when named starts during boot up, I dont seem to be able to 
'send' notifies to my slave machines:

notify to x.y.71.63#53: retries exceeded
notify to x.y.71.63#53: retries exceeded
notify to x.y.71.63#53: retries exceeded
However, if I pkill named and start it manually from the command line
it sends notifies just fine.
Has anyone else noticed this??
If it was my config, I would expect it to act like this whether or not I 
start it manually or not. But this is not the case.

PS. How important is it to bother with this? - should I just turn off 
notify and let the refresh handle things?

Most HP printers (inkjet/laser) are supported on FreeBSD via either
hpijs, gnomeprint or stand postscript drivers.

In a networked environment setting it up with cups/samba is quite easy
and straight forward.

Make sure the usb printer is connected and turned on first before adding
the printer via the cups web interface. Otherwise the usb option will
not be available.

This is a common setup, so a quick google, will probably get you a lot
of answers in case you encounter any problems.

Yes, it certainly would be a happier place.  :-)  And it would be great,
too, if I could interface with my computer purely by voice control and
synthesized speech feedback, and have it do what I *mean* and not what I
say.  :-)

But alas, computers are not *that* smart yet.  They still need a little
help from us humans (actually, a *lot* of help).  :-)

Re: dependencies, it should be simple to understand if you give it a
moment's thought.  Let's say you have a file "main.c" that calls
functions in "foo.c".  In order for main.c to compile and link properly
to create a complete, executable program, it's absolutely essential that
foo.c be compiled and linked in as well.

What Makefile dependencies are about is ensuring that, if a change is
made to foo.c, it will be recompiled and relinked with main.c to
guarantee that the final executable is up to date in all respects.

Does that help?  :-)

Lost MBR/wrong disk geometry

2004-11-27 Thread Erik Norgaard
Hi,
It appears that I have screwed my disk (60GB) thoroughly. I had used the 
sample install.cfg for sysinstall but it has "partition=exclusive" and 
not "all". I did

  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad0 count=1k
as explained in the faq, and the exclusive partioning was gone.

Cheers, Erik
PS:
When sysinstall ran first, it complained about a wrong geometry, 
116280/16/63 and tried to rewrite it to 7296/255/63. The bios reports 
28728/16/255 and the label on the disk sais 16383/16/63.

Accepting the geometry from sysinstall would make the installation 
complete but on reboot the system booted up with the old geometry.

On my laptop my disk (40GB) has geometry 77520/16/63 so I hacked up 
sysinstall to accept the geomtry (a simple change). With this I can 
slice up the disk and install the system.

I don't know if this is right, but from my current state, I'd say that 
the only thing is the mbr not being written correctly to the disk...

Edit /etc/ttys and mark the console "insecure" and try it again.

You'll find you can't get in without the password when that change has
been made.  That configuration is the correct thing to do when you can't
guarantee the physical security of the machine.

Installing libgnome-2.8.0 (really trying galeon)

2004-11-27 Thread gabriel
Hello guys!

I'm trying to install galeon (the lastes port version) for like the
tenth time and as always I haven't been successfull at all. When I try
to install galeon it goes through its motions of installing
dependencies and such until it reaches libgnome-2.8.0 and well, thats
where all hell breaks loose.

Here's a snip:

Stop in /usr/ports/x11/libgnome.


The only way I've tried to install galeon and libgnome is through
ports, havent tried source (I dont even know if those packages are
available that way?)

SiI 0680 and 5.3

i learned from the 5.3 errata that raid functionality for the 
above mentioned chipset was broken: 

"...ata raid support  is non-functional ... raid config
stored under 5.2 or prior may be corrupted"

since i had severe problems getting 5.2.1 to work reliably 
(the machine would just reboot under high network load)
i tested it with 5.3. initially it didn't recognise the raid1
but after recreating it (without losing any data disk) it 
just worked fine. moreover, the reboots are gone.

what am i missing? or is it that only the 5.2 _configuration_
has gotten corrupted but the new created 5.3 configuration
is ok??

any hints?

Raq_Apache_dot_htaccess

2004-11-27 Thread Adrian Portsmouth
Dear List,

I am experiencing a problem with my web site and I am not 100% sure whether
it is Apache or FreeBSD related.

I asked a forum to comment on my web site and one of the users there
reported that his Norton Firewall (Using Firefox 1.0) blocked access to my
web site stating "Raq_Apache_dot_htaccess" which was claiming that I was
attempting to intrude in his computer. Of course I am not doing any such
thing so I began to investigate.

When searching for information about this threat it became clear that the
original problem was related directly to Cobalt RAQ servers, as I am running
FreeBSD 4.7 I was a bit confused. I delved further into the RAQ problem and
it pointed out some code which should be in the httpd.conf file, so I have
checked and ensured that this code was in place:


Order allow,deny
Deny from all
Satisfy All


I have restarted Apache and checked that the .htaccess file can no longer
been seen from the browser, I then asked the guy to retest and he is still
getting the same problem.

So I had no choice but to go out and buy a copy of Norton, I installed it,
made sure the software was fully up to date. I then rebooted the machine and
called the web site up in a variety of browsers and I cannot get the same
problem!

I know that the person who reported this is not messing about as he has sent
me screenshots of the pop-up by Norton so I am basically stumped now.

Has anyone else on FreeBSD had this issue and found a fix? The web site is
in the signature if anyone on the list has Norton Firewall and can see if
they can replicate the problem.

My machine is FreeBSD 4.7 running PHP 4.3.9 on Apache 1.3 I have root access
to the machine but cannot upgrade BSD, only install ports etc. The only time
I use .htaccess on the web site is for Mod Rewrite which is not doing
anything special.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Check if your acl-option is working with "mount" ( no parameters )
It should give somthing like:

/dev/ad1s1g on /mnt (ufs, local, soft-updates, acls)

Then give the setfacl command on a file:

setfacl -m u::rwx,g:mail:rw file

Now you must have a + sign with the "ls -la" command.

I got error messages when I disabled or enabled acl
on a not-empty filesystem and made a directory listing.

Fun with partition tables...

2004-11-27 Thread Henrik W Lund
Greetings, list!
I'm asking this question with the (very faint) hope that someone knows 
of any way to help me recover my drive. Allow me to explain:

I'm dual booting Windows XP and FreeBSD/amd64 on two different physical 
drives. I installed boot0 to the disk that had Windows XP on it (all on 
a single partition, mind you) and it was running fine, dual booting was 
a breeze. However, when I installed a third drive, things went funny, 
and the BIOS no longer reported the FreeBSD drive (it's on a RAID 
controller), so that boot0 no longer saw it. Fine, not much that can be 
done about that.

Upon fiddling with BIOS settings, I discovered a built-in BIOS boot 
device selector, and decided to remove the boot0 from my Windows drive 
(since it didn't do anything useful anyway). This is where I messed up.

Under /dev, I have ad2 (the windows drive), and ad2s1 (the partition 
that has Windows on it - this is the only partition on the drive). The 
command

fdisk -B /drive/
will install a default boot manager, so I did an
fdisk -B /dev/ad2
as root, only to get an "Operation not permitted" error. Thinking this 
funny, I did a

fdisk -B /dev/ad2s1
which worked. Alas, this was my undoing. A reboot yielded boot0 still 
popping up, but when trying to boot Windows, I got the dreaded "Invalid 
partition table" message. The horror!

Back into FreeBSD, I reran the
fdisk -B /dev/ad2
which now worked for some reason, and a reboot showed that boot0 was in 
fact gone, but the partition table was still invalid.

A number of silly mistakes made by me in the following frustrating hours 
included running

fdisk -I /dev/ad2
(forgot the -t flag) because I had half given up on ever seeing my data 
again. In hindsight, I see that my best bet would have been to boot the 
recovery console off of the WinXP CD and ran fixboot and fixmbr, but 
it's a bit late for that now. I did eventually run fixboot, and it 
placed a FAT16 partition table entry on the disk (I originally had NTFS 
on it).

Now, my question is this: is there any hope of me ever seeing my data 
again? Seeing as how the entire disk was originally covered in a single 
NTFS partition, is it possible to add an entry for such and access the 
files once again? This is a long shot, I know, but you never know...

Thanks for any and all help!

Re: ACL and tunefs

2004-11-27 Thread Adam Stroud
Kees:
You were right, I did not umount the filesystem first, I dropped into 
single user mode and I thought that did unmount the filesystem.  When I 
booted the machine into single the tunefs command seemed to work OK.

However, I still dont get a "+" when I do a long listing of a file and 
the handbook says I should see one.  Does this mean that things did not 
take?

usb "wi(4)" devices

2004-11-27 Thread freebsd_daemon
dear list,

i own a Netgear MA111 wireless adapter which has a Prism III chip.

FreeBSD's wi(4) driver does not support it, as it is a USB device, but
OpenBSD has support for it.

my quetion is, if there are any ongoing activities to get support for USB
based wi(4) devices into FreeBSD. if yes ... who is working on it and how
can i help? if no, ... well i would give it a try ...

TIA

All of the UPSes that I have used come with a warning that the battery

good?


But, unlike the other windows systems that run up there, the FreeBSD
system seems incredibly
prone to disk corruption. Often the system will not reboot, 
I might be being dense here, but why does the system need to be rebooted 
when the generators are swapped over? You say above that the UPS easily 
holds its charge during the swap.

and hangs
while it asks for a file check.
I can't do that remotely - it has to be a person.
I frequently need to run fsck, and that does not always work.  It is
hard to instruct a diesel mechanic on such matters from such a
distance. "fsck -y"
usually does not work either.
Reading this, I get the sequence:
diesel mechanic goes onsite --> there's an unnecessary reboot --> fsck fails
Personally, I'd chat with the mechanic with an eye to preventing 
unnecessary reboots. Sounds like the wetware might be at fault here.

Last I had heard, read-only support had been created for Linux.

I can not install FreeBSD 5.3 in an old Pentium 100 MHz

2004-11-27 Thread Ramiro Aceves
Hello dear FreeBSD friends.
I am Ramiro from Spain.This is my first post to the list. I am a regular 
Debian GNU/Linux user, but I have been tempted to try FreeBSD. I have 
installed it successfully on my 1200 MHz Athlon computer booting from 
the CDROM drive and I like it, but I can not install it in an old 
Pentium 100 MHz fujitsu computer. This old machine can not boot from the 
CDROM, so I tried to boot with the floppies. I have prepared the 3 
floppies several times and I stil can not install it.
I boot with the "boot.flp" floppy ok. I insert "kern1.flp" and it loads 
ok. I insert "kern2.flp" and it loads ok. I was prompted to insert 
"boot.flp" floppy again and it shows the logo screen with the booting 
options. If I choose the default (with no acpi), the computers shudenly 
restarts without being able to see any message. The remaining options 
cause the same machine reboot. I can enter into the loader prompt.

¿What can I do?
Any help will be apreciated.
Sorry for my bad english.
Ramiro.

After you have changed /etc/master.passwd, you have to run pwd_mkdb to 
generate the new password database. If you have the second disk mounted 
on /mnt, try this after changing the hashes :

pwd_mkdb -d /mnt/etc /mnt/etc/master.passwd

That's probably passwd failing because the root filesystem is mounted 
read-only in single user mode. Try "mount -a" before you start passwd.

Breaking password on FreeBSD 5.2.1 box

2004-11-27 Thread Andrew Lewis
Hi list,

We have a client running a fBSD 5.2.1 box that needed its root password
hacked.

I couldn't boot into single user mode w/o the root password, so I
installed fBSD 5.3 on another machine, and slaved the drive from the
5.2.1 box in mine.

Then I tried editting its master.passwd file and removing the root
password: didn't work.

So then I tried setting it to the hash of a password I knew: didn't
work.

So then I editted /etc/ttys and set 'secure', booted up in single user
mode, ran 'passwd' and it came back with some failure in pam_chauthtok -
I forget the exact message, but it wasn't any more specific than what
I've described.

What to do now? Did I do something very wrong? :( Please CC your
response to me (non-subscriber)...

Thanks...

Best,
-AL.

Make Depend

2004-11-27 Thread Gert Cuykens
"A Makefile rule that typically scans all C/C++ source files in a
directory, and generates rules that indicate that an object file
depends on certain header files, and must be recompiled if they are
recompiled."

i dont understand this. how can a object depend on something that is
not compiled yet? Would the freebsd world not be a happier place if
make did the dependancy thingies what ever they are automatically ?
