Re: About LKM and COM's devices from Russia
Belkin wrote: Hello! I'm a programmer from Russia. Where can I find documentation about LKM drivers or about next thing: I need to write driver of special device attached to com-port. I don't know how can I work with com-port (using termios.h or assembler?), because I don't know what is correct for kernel mode. I'm using C language, English and Russian... I'll be happy if YOU help me. P.S. Sorry for my English... Usually it is totally wrong to write kernel-level driver for something working from COM-port. The transmission speed will be small, and you will have no gain to put driver in COM-port. The second problem is that serial port generate too much interrupts, and poorly written driver can hang whole system. Write user-level program which works with this device, it will be much easier. , COM-., - . - , . , ,. -- Best Regards, Alexander Derevianko ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: The Complete FreeBSD: errata and addenda
Hi, Excellent book, by the way. Gives a different perspective from the handbook (ever noticed how two cameras give you a better account on what happens on the race track, even if they are filming the same thing ?). Also of great use when your system isn't up and running yet and you actually don't have access to the handbook pdf. And perfect to get the basics on that port system when you're on a plane. Probably one of the best books I got this year. Edward The Complete FreeBSD has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor Installing and Running FreeBSD. Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Angeloto, I guess that 172.16.16.1 is the static IP from your ISP and the 192. etc is your internal network addresses. You should enable NAT on your router, this will allow it to translate the external address to the internal ones. Your BSD box should be on the same subnet as the router's internal address usually 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0, so the BSD box's IP should be something like 192.168.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0. You aslo need to set the BSD box's gateway address to be the router eg 192.168.0.1. Another way of doing this is to enable DHCP on the router and set the BSD Box to use DHCP and the settings should be automatic.

Toshiba Portégé 4000 laptop
Hello, Both FreeBSD 5.3 and 5.4-RC3 freeze during the boot of the kernel. It detects my CPU, RAM, some ACPI stuffs.. I noticed pci1: display, VGA at device 0.0 (no driver attached). I don't know if it's ok. At the end, it says ohci0: [GIANT-LOCKED] then usb0: OHCI version 1.0, legacy support, then nothing. FreeBSD 4.11 boots well. However I don't want FreeBSD 4.11 ;) Any idea?

Re: Two natd daemons
Alexandr Lookoshkoff wrote: Hello freebsd-questions, I have gateway with two external links and want to some users using second link. How it can be done? Is it possible via two copyes of natd running? What you are asking involves making a routing decision based on the source IP (sometimes called Policy Based Routing or Source Based Routing, depending on the vendor). IP Routing decisions are typically based on the destination address, not the source. What you want is some mechanism that will make route decisions based on the source address (i.e. packets with a source address from network A get routed out of interface 1 to gateway 1, while packets from Network B get routed out of interface 2 to gateway 2). I haven't used ipfw/natd in years, so I honestly don't know if natd/ipfw will allow you to do what you want. However, I do know that Packet Filter (pf(4) ported over to FreeBSD from OpenBSD) will allow you to do this. Check out pf.conf(5)'s man page and do a search for route-to. You might want to check out Peter N. M.

Need help setting up an IMAP Server on a local network
I would like to set up an IMAP server on a FreeBSD box for my home network. I don't have a lot of depth in this area, so could really use some help or pointers to how to pages. Searching the web and reading the documentation has left a couple of gaps that I would appreciate someone filling in. Most of what I've found seems to concentrate on running internet connected servers with real domain names on them, and this would sit in the local network with a separate router/firewall connecting the local network to a cable connection. The FreeBSD box is not normally visible to the outside world. For my primary mail, I have POP and SMTP services running at the hosting company for my domain. The access that I have to that machine is restricted to pop, ftp, etc. I do not have telnet access. It appears that I would use something like fetchmail to get the mail from that server (if someone thinks there is a better tool, I'm not committed to it). Several of the mailboxes I have are used by people outside the home network, so I would leave those alone and only process a select list. I intend to try openxchange locally, if that impacts anything. I'd like to be able to retrieve mail occasionally from some other servers, like my ISP, though I don't use that often, so it isn't as important. SMTP is where I start to bog down. I would like to have mail sent out from this central point, as well, but don't know where to start. If I have to configure the various email clients to send directly I will, but that seems like a partial solution. I also use the FreeBSD box as a sandbox for trying things that will be put on a web connected server. That box has postfix and courier-IMAP installed, so if I could use those applications in the mix, I would like to, but that is not a firm requirement if someone has a good reason that I shouldn't. I did replace sendmail with postfix on the box a while ago, but haven't used it for anything. Any suggestions, recommendations, pointers, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Sanity check needed on an idea
Hi, I'm planning on deploying a few servers, each of which will be doing some same things (Web, mail, etc) and some that will have other tasks (MRTG, IRRPT, etc). I'm to the point where going to upgrade software or make a config change on 10 servers gets really annoying. I was looking to do something a little different. I know there are other things out there to do this (cfengine) but wondered if that was alot more than I need. I've installed a Promise RM4000 onto a single server, giving me 1TB of capacity. I want to be able to install software on that machine, and that one alone, do the upgrades, config changes, etc. My directory structure would be something like : /mnt/bin /mnt/etc /mnt/lib /mnt/machine1/bin /mnt/machine1/etc /mnt/machine1/lib ... /mnt/machineX/bin /mnt/machineX/etc /mnt/machineX/lib I would then mount this on every machine under /usr/local/SHARED/nfs. I then make a softlink in /usr/local/shared/bin to /usr/local/SHARED/nfs/machineX/bin, /usr/local/shared/etc to /usr/local/SHARED/nfs/machineX/etc, and so on. If machineX didn't need a different etc/hosts.allow lets say than a default one, I would just link /mnt/machineX/etc/hosts.allow to ../../etc/hosts.allow . Does this sound too convoluted?

OT: HTTP response handling - date correction in the client?
This is OT, I know, but there's gotta be someone on this list that knows the various HTTP specs better than I do. I do know them better than your average bear, at least, but apparently not as well as I thought. I seem to remember reading in a spec, some time ago, details of date correction performed on responses received from a server with a skewed system clock or to account for extended network latency. Well, now I can't find the details of this date correction. RFC 1945 and 2616 don't mention much detail, but I know it was discussed somewhere. I just can't remember where. Unfortunately, my predecessor didn't mention the spec he used in the commentary. In fact, he didn't put any commentary on the subject at all. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Try using ifconfig to delete the current config for 192.168.0, then simply ifconfig 192.168.0.1 onto vr0; that should get you to where you can talk onto both networks from this machine. Once that's working, then you can try adding NAT to route from the extra-private network onto the DMZ; when you get that working, it should work end-to-end.

Anyway, it would help to know what other filesystems you have (ie, is /tmp on root, or /var?). Regardless, a good place to check is whether /root has grown out-of-control-- logging into X + KDE or GNOME, running apps like Mozilla which create big user profiles, for example, although trying to run perl -MCPAN or many others things could also do it. Otherwise, you might have files which have been deleted but are still being held by a process using that space.

SCSI AIC7902 Boot Issue
I am attempting to install FreeBSD 5.3 onto a new server, but during the initial bootup it fails / times out from what I think is it trying to initialize the SCSI adapter. The server has an Adaptec AIC-7902 dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI controller which the i386 ahd(4) driver has listed as a supported device. I have been reading and searching this lists archives as well as the bsdforums.org site for possible solutions, but so far what I have found has not worked. I have tried disabling/enabling ACPI, removing all but one SCSI drive and re-checking the adapter settings comparing them to a different Adaptec controller on another server running FreeBSD 5.3 which works fine. The servers BIOS and firmware is all up to date and is mainly running on its default settings. Here is a summary of what I am seeing during bootup: Ata1-master : FAILURE ATAPI_IDENTIFY timed out Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle ---Dump Card State Ends--- (probe29:ahd1:0:15:0) SCB0xe timed out ahd0: Issued Channel A Bus Reset 4 SCBs aborted Any ideas? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Unassociated shell command when building kernel
If there is an old one, it's in the object tree. But maybe there isn't, keep reading for my guess. Do you know how to get at the old one? Or know where there are instructions on how to do so? 2) If that isn't the problem, how can I find out what is? I'm thinking a perusal of /usr/src/UPDATING ... but IANAE. I've checked it. There's nothing there that I've seen that seems to help out. If there is, I've passed it and didn't understand its significance. Dave Madsen ---dcm My guess: it's likely your make is out of date. See /usr/ports/UPDATING, entry 20040728. If your world is older than that date, it's almost certainly the issue. OTOH, if you're building kernels often (say, monthly?) and your world is last July or earlier, I'd have thought the problem to be older than one month. Are you also regularly building world? They really need to be kept m/l in sync. I build world and kernel about once a week. I've been getting this error for a while, and thought it might go away if I gave it some time, like other errors have done in the past. It hasn't. Now, I could be wrong, and often am; but it's worth thinking about, and seems quite possible. Thanks for your assistance! (You're the only one who's responded!)

Some MMC memory cards do not work while e.g. CFC are just fine
Hi all, I have a USB attached multi slot memory card reader which I use with FreeBSD-4.11. It has worked just fine with CFC cards for ages. A while ago I managed to get it work briefly with the MMC card used in Nokia 9300 mobile phones. Later when I have tried the same physical MMC card again it refuses to co-operate, but the CFCs seem to work just fine. This does not seem to be a problem in the MMC itself because it still works fine with the phone. The MMC just no longer works with FreeBSD and multi slot reader. Is this a known symptom of some sort of a quirk missing in scsi_da.c or something similar?

It might be interesting looking at the work the pkgsrc people have done wrt $PREFIX enforcement. On my NetBSD boxen xorg lives under /usr/pkg/xorg and all packages are installed under /usr/pkg, not /usr/X11R6 or /usr/local. I disagree with NetBSD's PREFIX. I would go with the global prefix, /usr/local. 85% of configure has the /usr/local by default and FreeBSD already has /usr/local (to kill the colour discussions), so all we have to do is remove /usr/X11R6. Before you ask how we can test if the port is respect the prefix, we should be able to find out very easy when you work with pkg-plist by follow the porter handbook. I wasn't advocating the use of /usr/pkg, but rather the way they enforce it for every package. I personally don't mind what the prefix is called, but for the sake of POLA /usr/local would certainly serve FreeBSD better. FWIW, well behaved software should always be $PREFIX clean. Good discussion. Wanted to add some thoughts... [ I stopped CC'ing everyone, for those who read the lists anyway and don't want to get 3 or 4 copies, but I don't mind if anyone CCs me again in a response ] At netbsd they have an xwedge package that basically maps any /usr/X11R6 to /usr/pkg come install time. We could easily have something likewise (or borrow it from net) but it still has the problem: what are you going to do with users who already have the /usr/X11R6 bonus tree. Also (minor?) the xorg distribution should install into PREFIX also then, of course. xwedge seems to be great if it's the first thing you install/setup, I don't know how/if it can cope if installed after one already has 200 packages installed. If it copes with that, borrowing it as a starting point would make sense. Any port that's PREFIX clean should be no problem if a similar xwedge scheme is used. Then eventually it could be dropped after everything caught up with there being only one prefix. Still, I wonder if just ruthlessly making the X target a hard link to the local target (and maybe later fase out X11BASE in ports) wouldn't be the best way to go about this. Would be completely POLA agnostic at first _and_ at last, for those cases that will/can not be stomped into conforming to LOCALBASE you could always retain a simple hard link. That's one inode pointing to one other. It won't saturate our disks ;-) The only problem I can think of is maybe there will be name clashes somewhere. But it may very well be the case that things go a lot deeper, and there's no easy solutions. In that case, well, we can already live with it now... Of course that is if people _WANT_ to do away with the X prefix, up until now my impression was that most folks didn't mind it or even thought it was better. I never really cared very much about it apart from aestetic [sp?] reasons, but I can certainly imagine it being confusing to some (new) users. One other thing, which doesn't concern end users is that it can make things easier for porters. If you have a port that needs to put something into LOCALBASE and something into X11BASE you're always going to have an interesting plist and more error prone littering in your Makefile. Of course you can always cope, but simpler is better.

(As a digression, I experimented with recreating partition tables using fdisk and a configuration file, until the day I forgot to enter the 'da0' as the final parameter, and it wiped the disk partition on my dual-boot system disk.

Actually etc files are lib files in this case but you get the point. So that's coming from the other side of looking at it (most standard X stuff and Xlib apps is never touched even if it's in /usr/X11R6, the notable exception being XFConfig or xorgconfig. And this one, yes, resides in /etc per default...) As for KDE, I don't see any kde config files in /usr/local/etc. They're in /usr/local/share/[applnk][apps][config]. It follows its own config tree relative to its install prefix, be it /usr/local or /usr/X11R6. Either way, it does its own thing with its own config files. And with such a large project it makes sense to dictate how your config files are organized (save for PREFIX).

Xorg autoconfig much better or kde doing it? [ Was: Re: mplayer/mplayer-plugin question ]
Yeah, yeah, answering to my own post, but different subject that I've been wondering about: A couple weeks ago I moved my main box over from one disk to another and installed packages I had prepared before and copied over, etc, and I started KDE and only a few days later I noticed (when trying to use GL) that I was running with X's nv driver, not with nvidia driver. I completely forgot to setup a xorg config but it ran well nonetheless. I used to have to use specific hor/vert modes for my LCD monitor. Well, now something managed to autoconfigure it all. I haven't researched this but it seems that either xorg has improved greatly or KDE goes through great lenghts to make stuff just work. So, is this xorg or KDE that does the extra mile?

pf and altq bandwidth problem.
I apologize if this is the wrong list for this, but if it is, please let
me know. Basically when queue1 on my firewall starts pushing the full
amount of bandwidth, things that use the dflt queue become unreachable
or VERY slow. The dflt queue NEVER uses it's full amount of bandwidth,
generally around 3mbit/s on average. I'm starting to think this is just
an inherent problem in FreeBSD 5.3. Maybe I just need to upgrade to 5.4
when it is released, but I don't think there were many pf updates in
that release. I'm reluctant to post too much information about the
firewall and it's configuration since it is a production firewall. But
the problem seems to be with the queues. Here's what I think is the
relevant information, let me know if more information is needed:

Re: pf and altq bandwidth problem.
Christopher McGee wrote:
I apologize if this is the wrong list for this, but if it is, please
let me know. Basically when queue1 on my firewall starts pushing the
full amount of bandwidth, things that use the dflt queue become
unreachable or VERY slow. The dflt queue NEVER uses it's full amount
of bandwidth, generally around 3mbit/s on average. I'm starting to
think this is just an inherent problem in FreeBSD 5.3. Maybe I just
need to upgrade to 5.4 when it is released, but I don't think there
were many pf updates in that release. I'm reluctant to post too much
information about the firewall and it's configuration since it is a
production firewall. But the problem seems to be with the queues.
Here's what I think is the relevant information, let me know if more
information is needed:
firewall# pfctl -s queue
queue root_fxp0 bandwidth 25Mb priority 0 cbq( wrr root ) {dflt, queue1}
queue dflt bandwidth 8Mb priority 4 qlimit 150 cbq( borrow default )
queue queue1 bandwidth 17Mb qlimit 3500
firewall# pfctl -vvsq

Let me add a little more information I thought might be useful. This
firewall has intel pro 100+ cards, actually 6 of them. Only 2 are in
use, the others are there for some future projects. The public
interface has 1 public IP from a /29. The private interface has 2 IP
addresses that correspond with the 2 internal class C's we have(both
publicly routable). I have tried choking queue1 to 12Mb at some point
and it seemed to alleviate some of the problems, although some internal
servers still respond VERY slowly when it peaks.
Thanks,
Chris

Installing FreeBSD - Fatal trap 12
Hello, I am trying to install FreeBSD from floppies on a 486-DX-33, and with the three floppies I made I cant get to the boot menu screen (with the devil) but if I attempt to boot I get a Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernal mode error. The same error happens if I try safe mode except my system restart. What can I do to fix this so I can install FreeBSD? Exact Error Message: Fatal Trap 12: page fault while in kernal mode fault virtual address = 0x409b341b falut code = supervisor read, page not present instuction pointer = 0x8:0xc066c17d stack pointer = 0x10:0xc1021c10 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc1021c10 code segment= base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags= resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 0 () trap number = 12 panic: page fault Uptime: 1s - Any advice that you could give me would be welcome.

Thank you for your time. 1. Do you have more than 16 MB system RAM? You need more than 16 to install versions of FreeBSD higher than 5.2.1. 2. Try diabling PNPBIOS type options in the system's BIOS setup tool. 3. Make another set of floppies on new diskettes. 4. Check the hardware compatibility list at www.freebsd.org against the components in your system. Hope one of these does some good.

scaning the local network with arping/sh script
Greetings... I don't know much about scripting but i tried to write one to scan my local network using the net/arping port. here is the script: sciprt start #!/bin/sh IP=1 while [ $IP -le 20 ] do echo -e .\c if ( arping -c 1 -q -i rl1 10.0.0.$IP ) then echo -e \n10.0.0.$IP Online fi IP=$(( $IP +1 )) done echo -e \n script end The script runs and reports OK but it is very slow and takes a lot of time to scan a large network. Does anyone have an idea on how to improve it or provide an alternate way to do it? PS: I used the arpscan port in the past but it is reported as broken: Unfetchable. I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 Stable. -- Kind regards Abu Khaled ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
