 What you have is not correct.
 
 A more correct approach would be to actually *USE* the _elem iterator in
 the loop, instead of just echoing it.
 
 There is also a bug lurking in there.  The script prints the
 Unmounting message once for each unmounted filesystem.
 
 One of the many ways to do the same thing without the bugs could be:
 
 #   extfs=$(mount | grep '^/.*(ext2fs,' | awk '{print $1}')

Actually, better than that would be extfs=$(mount -t ext2fs | awk '{print $1;}')
Or even just replace the whole thing with umount -a -t ext2fs

 #   if [ -n ${extfs} ]; then
 #   echo -n Unmounting ext2/ext3 filesystems:
 #   for _elem in ${extfs} ;do
 #   umount ${_elem}  echo -n  ${_elem}

php mbstring

The mbstring PHP extension was not found and you seem to be using
multibyte charset. Without mbstring extension phpMyAdmin is unable to
split strings correctly and it may result in unexpected results.

So how do you do that ?

Flash 6 Slow with Mozilla

I've been trying out the macromedia flash 6 plugin with mozilla recently
by playing some flash games and everything seems to run much more slowly
than they should.  They run just fine on the same system running linux
so I'm wondering if this is just a problem with freebsd's linux emulation.
I'm using a native build of mozila 1.7.x with flash 6 on FreeBSD 5.3
running on a P4 2.4GHz with 1G 'o DDR 2700 ram so my system is plenty
fast.  Do other people have the same problem with it running slow or
would something be misconfigured on my system.  I'm also using
linux_base-rh-9, but I think it was the same with version 7 or 8.

  Well what I'm more concerned with is how would you locate orphaned

  removing packages on BSD, how could I find the leftovers later?
 
 Look at /usr/ports/sysutils/pkg_cutleaves
 
 here is a excerpt from its man page:
 
 pkg_cutleaves  finds  installed 'leaf' packages, i.e. packages that are
  not referenced by any other installed package, and lets you decide  for
  each  one  if  you want to keep or deinstall it (via pkg_deinstall(1)).
 Once the packages marked for  removal  have  been  flushed/deinstalled,
  you'll  be  asked  if  you want to do another run (to see packages that
  have become 'leaves' now because you've deinstalled the package(s) that
  depended  on  them).  In every run you will be shown only packages that
  you haven't marked for keeping, yet.

There's still one missing part to it that gentoo's portage has.  In
addition to the standard database of installed packages, emerge keeps track
of every single package that you explicitly installed in a file called
world.  Upgrades read this file and update all the packages listed,
including there dependencies first.  Now if a package that was installed
to satisfy a dependency, but not explicitly installed is now longer
needed, it will stay on the system until the next time emerge --depclean
is run.  --depclean tells emerge to remove any packages that are not in
the world file and are not needed to satify dependencies for packages in
the world file, either directly or indirectly.  I think this is the
behavior that the original poster was asking for.  AFAIK, this is not
yet possible in FreeBSD, but it should be a trivial matter to add
something like a world file to portupgrade.  Maybe, if I have time this
week I could work on a patch...

   If you try to remove a package that has child dependencies, then
   it'll let you know.  You'll have to use the -f flag to force it to
   delete the package, despite there being any dependencies.  If you
   want to delete a package along with all its dependencies, you can
   use the -r flag.
  
   Use pkgdb -F to fix any dependencies that might be broken.
  
   I think that's about right.  I'm a FreeBSD newbie :)

 We're looking to set up a console server in our colo, and these looked 
 like a good way of doing multiple serial ports fairly cheaply.

I've worked with similar keyspan adapters with linux before, but it
doesn't seem that any of them are supported in freebsd yet.  It's a
shame as there the best USB-Serial adapters I've used.  If anyone has
any other recommendations for adapters, I'd be intrested to hear them.

Screen refresh rate in the console.

2005-02-01 Thread Michael

Hello, folks, first of all I have to apologize for my english.

  My aim is to change screen resolution in FreeBSD console, only way
that I see now - using of vidcontrol(1). I've compiled my kernel with
proper options: SC_PIXEL_MODE and VGA_WIDTH90 and vga device. After
rebooting I obtained abbility to set some modes. But e.g. after
issuing 'vidcontrol -g 100x37 VESA_800x600' (refering to man page)
vertical refresh rate falling down from 70Hz to 60Hz, which I found
terrible for my eyes.. (I consider that 70Hz is bad too, but it's the
maximum that I've ever seen on FreeBSD machine..).
  So, the question is: how to set another refresh rate, and is it
possible to set e.g. 1024x768 mode?

Thank you for any help, promptings or advice. Have a nice day.

 Hehe! How did u manually recreate the partition table? U had the sizes
 and sectors etc stored somewhere? On my previous machine, I used to
 have fdisk listings of all my disks as a printout -- coz I've done
 this kind of goofups many a times, and so usually have been careful to
 keep a listing of the sector values etc. But this time, I was on my
 parents' machine, and since I hadn't really started using it big time,
 I was careless enough not to take a precaution like this. (But I guess
 I was not thaaat careless enough to not take backups either, hehe!)
 
 I was lucky to find this demo program called Active Partition UnEraser
 or something. Being demo, it would only show me the starting and
 ending sectors of all the partitions -- but that was fine with me coz
 once I got those values, it was just a matter of noting them down and
 then booting into Linux (coz that's what I had apart from FreeBSD) and
 recreating the tables using its fdisk program. :))
 
  IRCC, boot0 is the MBR and boot1 is the boot sector (of the FreeBSD
  partition (slice)) and they only ontain info about the local disk, i.e.
  _relative_ info in effect, so if FreeBSD is on your second disk and you
  copy boot1 to C:\BOOTSECT.BSD and add an entry for it in BOOT.INI then
  NTLDR has know way of knowing that it refers to the second HDD and so
  can't boot because the info doesn't match the layout of the first HDD.
  Remember boot0 and boot1 are restricted to 512bytes - one sector. That
  is the reason as far as remember.

I think that you should be able to use boot0 and boot1 as a file once
the apropriate fields are filled in.  When boot0 and boot1 are written
to the disk in their special locations, several bytes of each file are
modified to reflex various paramaters like which disk or partition they
should use.  You should be able to extract them with dd and boot them
externally from my understanding of it.  boot1 is normally written to
the first sector of the partitionthat freebsd is installed on, if that's
the first partition on ur second hard drive then:

dd if=/dev/ad1s1 of=boot1.img count=1

will extract the file to boot1.img might NTLDR should be able to use.

dd if=/dev/ad1 of=boot0.img count=1

Will extract boot0 from the first sector of the second hard drive,
otherwise know as the Master Boot Record.  If you use boot0, make sure
you disable the update feature of it.  boot1 on the other hand doesn't
modify anything.  boot1's sole purpose is to load the second stage boot2
which is stored a little deeper into the slice and is bigger than 1
sector.  boot1 is needed to get around a limitation of 512 bytes for the
boot sectore of the slice.  For NTLDR, you shouldn't need to worry about
boot2 though, just extract boot1 as shown above.

 
 Oh yeah ... doh! Silly me! Ofcourse boot1 contains the info relative
 to the FreeBSD disk, so copying it across to C:\BOOTSECT.BSD wont
 help! Silly me! :)) So that's why copying boot1 and loader didn't help
 -- coz they were all relative to the FreeBSD disk. And copying boot0
 too didnt help coz of the MBR re-writing thingy. :p
 
 What magic does BootPart do, I still wonder! I mean, if its just
 extracting the bootsectors as the program says, then an alternative
 way of extracting (like dd etc) too should work! But they dont --
 meaning, BootPart does more than just extracting, I guess.

Re: running interactive program from shell script

On Sun, Jan 30, 2005 at 05:33:51AM -0600, Jay Moore wrote:
 I need a shell script that initiates a telnet session to another host. I have 
 come up with the following, but unfortunately it terminates when the script 
 is finished. What I wanted was for the telnet session to remain alive and 
 interactive until manually terminated.
 
 Is there a way to accomplish this in a shell script? 
 
 I've been told that I'll have to use expect or similar to accomplish this, 
 but it seems to me that I should be able to do this using just Bourne shell 
 commands. 
 
 #! /bin/sh
 
 (sleep 3;
 echo password;
 sleep 3;
 echo ls -la;
 sleep 3;
 ) | telnet -l user 192.168.0.2

When any command is run by default, it's standard input comes from the
same place as it's parent process.  When you run this shell script from
your prompt, it inherits a standard input coming from your keyboard and
any command it runs inherit the same input as the shell.  The same goes
for a processes standard output which it to your screen.  Now when you
run a pipe (|), thing are a little different, the standard input and
output get redirected a little bit.  The following command sets up a
pipe between two programs:

  leftProgram | rightProgram

leftProgram's standard input is still from the keyboard, but it's output
gets redirected to the standard input of rightProgram and rightPrograms
standard output goes to the screen as usual.  Everything rightProgram
reads on standard input comes only from leftProgram's standard output,
it's no longer reading from the keyboard.  When leftProgram's done
sending output and exits, rightProgram sees and End Of File (EOF) and,
in general, will exit since there's nothing more to read.  In your
example, you set up a sub-shell which runs 5 command, 3 sleeps and 2
echos, once the sub-shell exits, telnet just sees and EOF and exits.
The control charater ^D means EOF, on a blank terminal that you don't
mind logging out of, try hitting Control-D and see what happens.  It
will logout usually, that's what happened to telnet.

Now guess what programA | programB | programC does...

programB never writes to the monitor or reads from the keyboard.
Working with pipes is one of the most basic things, albeit most useful
things that has made UNIX famous.

 
 Thanks,
 Jay

Re: How does FreeBSD access NetBSD, OpenBSD?

On Thu, Jan 27, 2005 at 07:17:33PM -0800, Loren M. Lang wrote:
 I have FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD on the same hard drive of my system.
 How can I mount the NetBSD or OpenBSD partitions from FreeBSD?
 
 Slice 1 - Ext3fs for data between linux/bsd
 Slice 2 - OpenBSD slice with 4 ufs partitions and swap (a,b,e,f,g)
 Slice 3 - FreeBSD slice with 4 ufs partitions and swap (a,b,d,e,f)
 Slice 4 - Extended slice composed of:
Slice 5 - NetBSD slice with 4 ufs partitions and swap (a,b,e,f,g)
Slice 6 - Unformatted as of yet.
 
 FreeBSD is, of course running fine, but I can't see any of the other
 slices/partitions on the drive including the ext3fs partition.
 $ ls /dev/ad1*
 /dev/ad1/dev/ad1s3  /dev/ad1s3c /dev/ad1s3f
 /dev/ad1s6
 /dev/ad1s1  /dev/ad1s3a /dev/ad1s3d /dev/ad1s4
 /dev/ad1s2  /dev/ad1s3b /dev/ad1s3e /dev/ad1s5
 
 I can seem to access all the linux partitions on my first drive ad0,
 but that drive is only linux so there are no complex partitions in
 slices like on ad1.  I would expect that the nature of geom, I should
 be able to access all the partitions fine, but I might be missing
 something.

Looking further into this, it seems that FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD
all have unique partition ids to represent their diskslice and geom_bsd
that translates the FreeBSD diskslices only looks for partitions with
the id reserved for FreeBSD so it will never find a NetBSD or OpenBSD
slice in any combination, even if it's on it's own harddrive.  Do all
there BSDs actually use a different format for their diskslice or why do
they use different ids.  If they are different, I would still expect
them to be similiar.  If that's the case, then it should be a simple
matter in FreeBSD 5.x to write a geom that translates the other BSD
diskslices as well.  Are their any good resources describing the
different BSD diskslice formats.  I might try taking some time and maybe
write a geom so FreeBSD can read them.

 Technically, the shutdown command calls either the reboot or halt commands.

Using PAM with ssh

2005-02-01 Thread Andrea Venturoli

Hello.
I'd like to login to a box of mine through ssh using a password that's 
stored in Samba's user database: for this I normally use pam_smb.
pam_smb works with any other application, but not with sshd: actually it 
looks like sshd doesn't even try to use pam, although I enabled it in 
its config file.
Is this a known problem? Any hint?

Re: mounted ext2 fs causes bad shutdown

2005-02-01 Thread Eric Kjeldergaard

  One of the many ways to do the same thing without the bugs could be:
 
  #   extfs=$(mount | grep '^/.*(ext2fs,' | awk '{print $1}')
 
 Actually, better than that would be extfs=$(mount -t ext2fs | awk '{print 
 $1;}')
 Or even just replace the whole thing with umount -a -t ext2fs
 

While we're at it, isn't awk a bit of overkill?  Seems that the
following would do:

extfs=$(mount -t ext2fs | cut -d ' ' -f1)

Every cycle counts :p

I never tried by myself, but did you also modify /etc/pam.d/sshd? I think
that would be necessary.

2005-02-01 Thread Anton K. N. :: Kyliptix M.E.R.O.

Dear Sir/Miss,
Good day,

Thank you for bringing to us FreeBSD..

We are forming server hosting comapny and have plans for FreeBSD as our
major OS with other minor OS's but with our partner of Hsphere Contol
Panel said that FreeBSD has a problem with Java and TomCat server as:

Our Partner's comment:

FreeBSD 4.8, 4.9, 4.10 and 5.3
We don't recommend running CP on FreeBSD, because it only works with
Java 1.3.1, which is slow as compared to 1.4.x. It also doesn't close
Windows connections, which can become a problem if your Windows
servers get hung several times. Finally, on FreeBSD Tomcat doesn't
stop correctly.

Oh, yeah.  I could try that.  I could boot an old DOS 6.2 or whatever 
and try CTRL-ALT-DELETE.  I think that is what you mean.  I don't 
remember that actual command, although I'm sure there's a lot of 
third-party reboot commands...  Some of which I'd like to see in the 
assembler code, myself.  I'll just bet someone has an old MS-DOS BASIC 
program or assembler written in C, Pascal, or something, which could do 
a warm or cold reset.

Start at http://www.freebsd.org/where.html and go for FreeBSD 5.3, which is
the current stable release.

You should probably read the handbook too:

 Dear FreeBSD users,
 Once more I am asking  your advice with a old Laptop
 I have. Pressario 1230. Nothing worked as fast as FreeBSD
 in that thing! It was amazing how quickly it booted when
 compared with SuSE or Windows. Help me to fix 2 things
 though so it becomes useful!
 
 1) In FreeBSD 4.10 there are no problems with the time;
   the clock works fine. Unfortunately in 5.3 Release
   you see the clock running instead one-by-one second
   5-by-5 seconds. I do not know why! Any ideas?
 
 2) Both 4.9, 4.10, 5.0, 5.2.1, 5.3 Releases cannot
   use the touchpad. The touchpad is invisible to them.
   Even from the time when installation is perfomed! You
   remember that you asked to test the mouse daemon
   if there any non-usb mices during installation don't you?
   In Linux the touchpad is recognized and works fine
   and that is with all Fedora and SuSE versions.
 
 3) As an alternative to touchpad I am using a USB mouse.
   But this only works under 5.3 Release. It can't work
   with 4.10 or any of the 4.X series.
 
 I did:
 #ls /dev/
 
 and I saw the devices therein! Nowhere isnide /dev/ I could find
 /dev/psm0. Everything existed except /dev/psm0. Is it possible that
 for some reason it is assigned a wrong IRQ number and it conflicts
 with some other device? Undr Linux /dev/psm0 is /dev/psaux and it is
 assigned an IRQ number 12. I've attached my dmesg and my /etc/rc.conf.

Re: How do I do a COLD Reboot on FreeBSD?

Billy Newsom wrote:
Oh, yeah.  I could try that.  I could boot an old DOS 6.2 or whatever 
and try CTRL-ALT-DELETE.  I think that is what you mean.  I don't 
remember that actual command, although I'm sure there's a lot of 
third-party reboot commands...  Some of which I'd like to see in the 
assembler code, myself.  I'll just bet someone has an old MS-DOS BASIC 
program or assembler written in C, Pascal, or something, which could do 
a warm or cold reset.
Well, I just tried a Windows 98 Startup disk.  I booted to floppy, and 
then hit CTRL-alt-delete.  Guess what?  This system did a warm reboot, I 
 removed the floppy, and FreeBSD booted from the hard disk perfectly. 
So I have to come to this conclusion: something in the FreeBSD 5-Stable 
code has made this machine break anytime it performs a halt followed by 
a power cycle, or a reboot followed by a power cycle (since the reboot 
always fails).  My surmise is that the new SMP code has somehow done 
some sort of corruption to the CPU state(s) and the BIOS is somehow 
confused during the attempted reboot.

0. System has passed every diagnostic I can throw at it.  Everything 
checks out during normal operation.  Dual processor Pentium Pro.  DOS, 
Windows, and FreeBSD 4.7 with SMP do not have this problem.  Latest 
5-Stable code from 1/30/2005.

1.  I type shutdown -r now or reboot.  This shows the normal cpu_reset 
stuff, and then the system beeps and hangs. (a memory error beep code 
saying the first 64KB are bad.)  If I turn power off and back on, the 
system bypasses its memory check in POST and crashes on next boot.

2.  I type shutdown now, followed by halt in single user mode.  This 
puts me at the press any key to reboot screen.  If I press a key, 
system won't reset, and gives a memory error beep code saying the first 
64KB are bad.  If I turn power off and back on, (no matter if I tried 
the reboot or not) the system bypasses its memory check in POST and 
crashes on next boot.

3. I must turn power off and unplug the cord usually.  Then, on 
subsequesnt boot, the memory will be tested during POST and FreeBSD 
boots normally.

4. None of these problems appear after a DOS warm boot on this machine.
5. I'm looking for a cold reboot utility to patch the kernel or the 
reboot command of FreeBSD 5.3.

6. I recompiled the kernel with the BROKEN_KEYBOARD_RESET option.  The 
reboot hangs and system does not reboot, but the beep codes aren't 
there.  I suppose that the BROKEN_KEYBOARD_RESET style reboot (I saw the 
source code and thought I'd try it) does not work.  Again, when I power 
cycle the machine, the POST is still a short POST (and the kernel 
crashes when loading) and so I must disengage the power cable as above.

Re: how do i get freebsd

2005-02-01 Thread Jerry McAllister

 
 hi my name is mark I'm new to freebsd.i was wanting to know how, i can get  
 it or which one i should get. if some one could help me that would be cool  
 thanks.

The first thing to do is to read the handbook - freely available from
the FreeBSD web site: 
  http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html

There are more than USA English versions there too.

Then get one [or more] of the good books on FreeBSD such as FreeBSD Unleashed
or The Complete FreeBSD  or some others and use it [them] as a guide
to installing and configuring your machine.   Of course, you will need
to decide for yourself how you plan to use the machine and how to
divide your disk and which ports to install, etc.   

The handbook and those printed books all have discussions of those
issues - and take somewhat different attitudes toward them as well.
The handbook and the books all have complete information on how
to obtain FreeBSD - either by buying a pre-burned CD or by downloading
an ISO and burning your own CD.

There are lots of posts in the mailing list archives and FAQs and online 
publication articles such as from onlamp.com on the subjects too.  They 
are good about describing people's experiences with various aspects of 
installing, managing and using FreeBSD.

Re: Booting FreeBSD-5.3 from NTLDR

 the first sector of the partitionthat freebsd is installed on, if that's

 dd if=/dev/ad1 of=boot0.img count=1

Nopes. This too is something I had tried. Coz I figured if BootPart is
simply extracting sectors from the FreeBSD slice, then either of the
commands above should do the same trick! But nopes, that too gave me
errors. This is what really got me stumped! :((

But hmm, now that I look at ur commands once again, I realize that I
had also added an option like bs=512. As in, what I used was ``dd
if=/dev/ad1 of=boot0.img count=1 bs=512''. No specific reason for that
extra option, just that that's what I used to extract the bootsectors
for Fedora, and I figured its job is to extract just the first 512
bytes (and nothing else). Do you think bs=512 could be what's making
things go wrong for me?

 I first installed FreeBSD 4.10 but that's for 32 bit. Now I am trying to
 install 5.3 but the system doesn't boot from the CD :(

 I have been using 4.10 for more than years (in other 32 bit cpu) and it is
 very stable. But I don't know how good 5.3 is for the server environment.


I've installed 5.3 on three different machines. Two of them without
problems. On the third the BTX loader from the boot CD got confused and went 
nowhere. 

Announced that loader was being relocated and then after some considerable time
that the loader was running -- but then just hung.

Worked around the problem by making and using the boot floppies
with the actual installation data taken direct from CD.

The machine would boot 4.10 installation CD without problems.

Slow Thin Clients

2005-02-01 Thread Lee Harr

Hi;
I am using FreeBSD-5.3 as a terminal server for a few thin client machines.
I have the inside network interface configured so:
ifconfig_xl0=inet 172.16.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0 media 100baseTX mediaopt 
full-duplex

and the outside interface is from DHCP.
The clients are configured similarly 172.16.0.2, 172.16.0.3, etc.
In the /etc/hosts files, I have:
172.16.0.1  tserv
172.16.0.2  gu2
172.16.0.3  gu3
/etc/nsswitch.conf is the default:
group: compat
group_compat: nis
hosts: files dns
networks: files
passwd: compat
passwd_compat: nis
shells: files
I am using kdm and xdmcp to connect. When the client connects I get
a message that says:
DNS spoof attempt or misconfigured resolver.
The main symptom though is that programs are extremely slow to start
up, and menus react very slowly.
I am connected through a hub (not a switch) but I have had this system
set up like this before (using FreeBSD 4.8) and it was much more
responsive.
What am I missing?

We don't recommend running CP on FreeBSD, because it only works with

...
Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2005 21:06:03 -0800 (PST)
From: Joe Schmoe [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org

Hello,

To let me say initially, I have the goal of buying
three of the new apple 30 cinemadisplays and running
them as one large extended desktop in x11 under
FreeBSD.

The displays are 2560x1600, and I want to utilize them
at full resolution.

The question:  what hardware can perform this _and_
work under FreeBSD ?  My guess is I have three
choices:

- find _one_ PCI-X or AGP card that can drive all
three monitors at once ... the matrox p750 can do
this, but only at 1280x1024 for three screens.  The
new matrox APVe can also do this, but only at
1920x1080 or below (not quite clear) ... so these are
not valid choices ... are there any single cards that
can do 3x (2560x1600) ?

- find three normal PCI cards that can each drive
2560x1600 ... not sure if such advanced cards were
ever made for plain old PCI, or how well that would
work ... at 3x that res, would I be getting close to
saturating the PCI bus ?

- find a system that has 3 PCI-X slots in it (does
that exist ?) and then find 3 PCI-X gfx cards that can
each do 2560x1600 ... any thoughts on this line ?  And
if so, what would be a good FreeBSD supported gfx card
to stick three of in a system ?

Obviously I need help ... so any comments at all are appreciated.

extracting boot1.img gives me a Boot Error message.

But what you said above gave me an idea. Possibly BootPart modifies
the extracted bootsectors specially, changing the special parameters
to enable booting of the second disk from the first? Its a thought ...
maybe the way these files are written to the disk (from where dd
extracts them), the special parameters are not such that they can be
booted from the first disk. But when BootPart extracts the sectors, it
modifies these parameters, enabling the booting. What say?

Although phpMyAdmin will pick up that capability automatically however
you install the multi-byte string capabilities for PHP.

4.10, USB hard drive, weird problems

2005-02-01 Thread Gregor Mosheh

I have a problem with my external USB 2.0 hard drive.
This drive had been working for several months, and
then it quit. By quit I mean that the device can be

and therefore cannot be used.


This is FreeBSD 4.10. I cvsup'd the source today and
found no changes since I built this kernel.

The kernel has uhci, ehci, and ohci drivers. The dmesg
output inidicates that our hardware uses UHCI ports,
finds 4 of them, and attaches EHCI to them:

When I plug in the drive, dmesg shows the following:

Eventually, this appears:

umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT

It does not show the usual da0: line which would
indicate that the device has been attached and made
ready.


usbdevs -d -v shows exactly what I expect:
(snip)
Controller /dev/usb4:
addr 1: high speed, self powered, config 1, EHCI root
hub(0x), (0x8086)(0x), rev 1.00
  uhub4
(snip)

Those BBB timeout lines keep appearing any time I do a
USB operation, e.g. running usbdevs



Any ideas on how I can continue troubleshooting this?

that can be any type in C/C++.  Is there something already out there I can
use or should I just roll my own?

I've been running apache2 with squirrelmail for a while. The biggest 
problems were performance issues. Squirrelmail was very slow pulling 
mail from the disk. Not sure that apache13 would help there.

I finally installed apache13-ssl after trying to portupgrade -o to 
apache2 and trashing everything.

Anyway, it's all working now, except that when I try to connect to 
squirrelmail in a browser I just get a directory listing of 
/usr/local/www/squirrelmail.

I've reinstalled squirrelmail and run the configure script. Alias in 
httpsd.conf is copied from the old httpd.conf:

Alias /squirrelmail/ /usr/local/www/squirrelmail/
Directory /usr/local/www/squirrelmail
Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
/Directory
Which worked before.
Any idea what I've missed?

FreeBSD + Apache2 + PHP + MySQL ?

2005-02-01 Thread Joseph Koenig (jWeb)

Hi,

I'm getting ready to begin moving sites from an old web server to a new one.
I've been reading about Apache 2 and it looks like it offers some great new
features, but I'm concerned about the stability of it. I've seen a number of
issues with memory leaks, etc, which concerns me because this server will
get a decent amount of traffic. There's about 200 web sites on it that total
about 1.5 million hits per day. Has anyone had any experience with Apache 2,
PHP,  MySQL on FreeBSD 5.3 in a production environment? Any input would be
appreciated. Please CC me on responses. Thanks,

If I understand this correctly, your .php page was not parsed, but
displayed. You should also need a directive like this:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

From what I see, /usr/ports/lang/php4/pkg-message.mod says how to
complete the integration of php module.

 We don't recommend running CP on FreeBSD, because it only works with

 Windows connections, which can become a problem if your Windows
 servers get hung several times. Finally, on FreeBSD Tomcat doesn't
 stop correctly.

JDK1.4.2 is available as a port in java/jdk14. It is a bit of a

Re: how can i find out which modules are loaded in apache

On 02/01/05 11:08 AM, Ken Hawkins sat at the `puter and typed:
 I have installed apache13 and it is running however when i run;
 'httpd -l' I see this:
 
 Compiled-in modules:

 I am running as root on the box and am trying to make sure that 
 mod_alias is part of apache. it looks like it is not however since 
 their is a BIG hole in between _core.s and _so.c
 
 what is the easiest path to installing apache13 with ssl and mod_alias?

Configuration.  If you installed from the ports, you need to install
www/apache13-modssl or www/apache2, but other than that you probably
have most of them built as modules that just need to be loaded.  Check
your config and make sure mod_info.c is loaded, then uncomment (and
modify to your needs) the server-info section.  Then just load
http://yourdomain/server-info in your browser.  It'll tell you what
modules are loaded and IIRC, what their configurations are.

 I also have php4-pear, mysql, phpbb and phpmyadmin installed on the box 
 so, will just make reinstal apache13 destroy all my settings here? I 
 have to ask to make sure that I catch all the configuration files such 
 as httpd.conf, php.ini, etc.

I don't think so, but you should at least back up any modified configs
beforehand anyway.  If something stops working, just reinstall it.

 how can i find out all the flags that are available to set for 
 make/make install for the apache13 port? (rookie question)

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/ for 1.3 or
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/ for 2.0.
The docs there are excellent - better than most open source projects in
fact.  There are also mailing lists that will focus a lot more on Apache
per se than this list.

Good luck

Re: How do I submit a bug?

2005-02-01 Thread Xin LI

Hi, Nigel,

Which browser do you use?  I have tried Firefox, Mozilla and even IE and
all of these works quite well.  Additionally send-pr(1) is a preferred
way.

If you want to submit a port, a preferred way is to shar(1) your port
and then use send-pr -a to attach it.  If you just want to someone to
port the software, the usual web interface should work, but depends how
attractive the software is, and how much spare time others have :-)

Re: how can i find out which modules are loaded in apache

2005-02-01 Thread Chad Morland

httpd -l will only show you the compiled in modules. If you built your
other modules as DSOs then you will not see them listed. The easiest
way to see what modules you are using is the LoadModule directive in
httpd.conf.

To see what options apache was compiled with, if you still have the
source lying around you can look at config.cache and that should show
you what options apache was built with.

If you rebuild your apache, it will not overwrite your current
httpd.conf if it detects one.

FreeBSD 5.3, Openfiles Limit in login.conf not respected

2005-02-01 Thread Matt Rechkemmer

Hi folks,

I recently setup FreeBSD 5.3R on my P4 2.4 GHz system and have a slight
problem with it not respecting the limits set in /etc/login.conf.  The entry
I've made in /etc/login.conf is below:

bopm:\
:openfiles=8192:\
:coredumpsize=unlimited:\
:tc=default:

Yet when a user with that login class logins in, they're offered a openfiles
limit of 14781 instead of 8192.  In my kernel I've set maxusers so FreeBSD
doesn't attempt to auto-tune this setting.

I searched the handbook and the FAQ, but didn't come up with anything useful.

Any help on this, is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

  I've been running apache2 with squirrelmail for a while. The biggest 
  problems were performance issues. Squirrelmail was very slow pulling 
  mail from the disk. Not sure that apache13 would help there.
  
 
 I finally installed apache13-ssl after trying to portupgrade -o to 
 apache2 and trashing everything.
 
 Anyway, it's all working now, except that when I try to connect to 
 squirrelmail in a browser I just get a directory listing of 
 /usr/local/www/squirrelmail.
 
 I've reinstalled squirrelmail and run the configure script. Alias in 
 httpsd.conf is copied from the old httpd.conf:
 
  Alias /squirrelmail/ /usr/local/www/squirrelmail/
 
  Directory /usr/local/www/squirrelmail
  Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews
  AllowOverride None
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  /Directory
 
 Which worked before.
 
 Any idea what I've missed?

Sounds a bit like you have either a file with the wrong ownership
or permissions or you still need to do an AddType or possibly
a DirectoryIndex directive in the httpd.conf file.

Re: Video Capture, TV tuner devices

Yes, I've read that. I have found a Linux site that has an entire list of 
cards supported by the Linux Brooktree driver and was not sure if that would 
apply to FreeBSD, not sure if the FreeBSD driver is based on the linux work.

Re: FreeBSD 5.3, Openfiles Limit in login.conf not respected

Matt Rechkemmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Hi folks,
 
 I recently setup FreeBSD 5.3R on my P4 2.4 GHz system and have a slight
 problem with it not respecting the limits set in /etc/login.conf.  The entry
 I've made in /etc/login.conf is below:
 
 bopm:\
 :openfiles=8192:\
 :coredumpsize=unlimited:\
 :tc=default:
 
 Yet when a user with that login class logins in, they're offered a openfiles
 limit of 14781 instead of 8192.  In my kernel I've set maxusers so FreeBSD
 doesn't attempt to auto-tune this setting.
 
 I searched the handbook and the FAQ, but didn't come up with anything useful.
 
 Any help on this, is greatly appreciated!

It works for me; maybe you forgot to run cap_mkdb(1)?

I believe the port compiles PCAP with a larger default buffer size than 
the PCAP which comes with FreeBSD.  It may drop fewer packets under 
high network load as a result, but there doesn't seem to be a 
significant difference for most tasks.

Your question probably belongs on comp.lang.c, but the cannonical way 
of handling data of any type is a memory buffer and a (void *).  
Watch out for host data alignment restrictions.

way to run application as root in fluxbox menu

2005-02-01 Thread Brian John

Hello, I want to be able to add k3b to my menu in fluxbox.  However, it
has to be run as root and I'm not sure how to do that.  Is there a way
that I could get k3b to automatically run as root in fluxbox?  It is ok if
I have to enter my root password every time that I run it.

Thanks

Why?  Are you having problems with it?

The reason there is a port at all is to support people who might be
looking for more recent features than the version in the tree.  
At the moment, I'm not sure there are any significant differences;
speed won't be different, though.

library call for directory path creation?

2005-02-01 Thread Louis LeBlanc

I know there might be a better place for this question, but here goes.

I'm working on a utility that has to, among many other things, create
directory paths, often with a series of parent directories that may not
already exist.  Solaris has mkdirp(3GEN) in the libgen library, but I
can't find a library call that will do this in FreeBSD.  Kind of like
`mkdir -p` would.

I know it would be pretty trivial to roll my own, and if I can't find it
I will.  I'm just curious if anyone knows of an *existing* library call
that would do this.

TIA
Lou

 Watch out for host data alignment restrictions.

Or depending on the intent, a union, which will get the compiler to
take care of alignment.

Generally, though, avoiding typechecking is a hack best avoided...
