Item 5 is satisfied. Those are all my requirements. This entire discovery process, although nice and tidy above, was filled with a certain amount of grief. It was only until I reset the umask to 0007 that things started to work as expected. Now this bothers me for two reasons. I don't want my umask to have to be 0007. What if I'm in a working directory that doesn't require propagating acls? Then I'm stuck setting my umask back to something sensible like 0027 before creating files without extended acl entries. I have a difficult time remembering little details like that. Not only that, but I'll have to remember to set it back to 0007 (or maybe , horrors) if I want to use propagating acls and have them behave as I expect as shown above. I can easily set a process' umask through cron et al, but how do I set it for cvs users using the protocol :ext:server:/home/cvsroot with ssh? Can anyone explain this further? Thanks. Mark P.S.

Hello, I am a doom addict and I just found out that doom is available from the ports tree :) I could install doom legacy but needed to download the doom.wad file and copy it to the doomlegacy directory. I could then run doom with no problems but because it is shareware I could not use all the weapons. I really want to be able to get Alien Doom up and running but I am not sure which files I need.

The P-III's are presumably a newer process than the P-II's so they probably draw about the same amount of power. That said, the (presumably) reduced Vcore (and increased current) will increase the stress on the motherboard Vcore regulator.

After 3-4 years of continuous use, they may be getting marginal - particularly if any are near heat-producing components.

The divert rule in my firewall says:
ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ${natd_interface}
If you have static rules rather than a script then you need
${natd_interface} to be replaced directly with dc0.
The other things to check, I guess, are that those are the *only* natd

RE: Booting with multiple RAID1 configs
You might use loader(8) to set the root device (rootdev variable) explicitly to ar1s1a. Then you should also update fstab to reflect the numbering change. I don't know of any way to change the ata numbering scheme. Mainboard controllers always seem to be probed (and numbered) first. I think there is no way to get your original raid back to ar0 if you also use your mainboard controllers. Thank you so, so much. After trying to mount / to ufs:/dev/ar1s1a at the MountRoot prompt and it failing, I thought something more serious was the problem, so: - I added kern.rootdev=/dev/ar1s1a to sysctl.conf - Changed the / fs in /etc/fstab to point to /dev/ar1s1a At that point, the system loaded the root filesystem, but since that was the only one I changed, it errored out mounting the rest (which was expected). I simply mounted them manually /dev/ar1s1N to /usr /var and /home, remounted the / filesystem rw, ee the /etc/fstab and changed all the mountpoints to ar1, rebooted, and all is well! I now have 2 RAID1 configs on the same box, and am successfully booting off of the promise raid properly before the motherboard disks!! Thanks to all who provided feedback! I hope this situation can help someone else who wants to boot off of an arbitrary disk before the motherboard disk in the future!

Re: postfix or qmail?
Hi Luciano, I've a simple question, postfix or qmail? the simple answer: both are good. If you're using sendmail right now, the change to postfix should be easier. I've heard that postfix is slightly faster when it comes to really massive number of emails (less disc-writing) but that shouldn't bother you with 300 accounts. Other thing (perhaps, the one that I interest more your opinion), do anyone know why MacOS X Server is using postfix instead of qmail? Perhaps licensing questions?

Can't mount partitions with soft-updates enabled with async option

Can someone please clarify the difference and if the speed difference (if any) is significant when using the async option instead of the soft-updates for cases such as the /usr/obj or as a squid data storage?

Why would you want to do that? Soft-updates already provides most of the benefits of an async mount plus some extra goodies, like never leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.

Is async preferred over soft-updates when data loss is not a big issue? A speed comparison can be found in The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System. If I'm reading the relevant text correctly, then filesystems softupdates are slightly slower than async mounted filesystems and a hell of a lot faster than synchronous mounts without softupdates. The speed gain of mounting a squid cache as async shouldn't really be that big, but the guarantees of avoiding data loss when a filesystem is mounted with softupdates are too big to ignore :-) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
FreeBSD as VMware Guest, need some assist on networking to Host

The VMware docs make no mention of altering any settings on the host, hence, I've done no changes within the Win XP Host. (I can see VMnet8 and VMnet1 on the Host(XP) side with ipconfig /all) I searched through the archives and did not see any resolutions. There were a few messages which implied, 'use NAT and it just works'. I have selected NAT as network type. (I've actually tried bridging and 'host only', still nothing). As a side note, and possibly related. I receive this message on the BSD console[IN BOLD] every 5 minutes or so: calcru: runtime went backwards from 24173436 usec to 24173430 usec for pid 444 (vmware-guestid) This is my first post to this forum, though I usually like to figure things out for myself, I've been really struggling with this issue for quite some time. It would be so great to pull data from the BSD envi (shell scripting, perl scripting) as I use it mainly for development. Oh! I should mention that I am not in any way a BSD expert. I prefer it leaps and bounds over Linux, but my real UNIX experience is with AIX. Although I have a considerable amount of time in the NeXTStep world (which I believe to be build on a derivative of BSD's mach kernel). At any rate, if the email gods are not angry with me this message will make it to the forum, and, hopefully, someone who has already conquered this issue can shed some light.

Re: gnome_upgrade.sh Firefox

The first on the list was Firefox... the one that did not work with gnome_upgrade.sh. It built with my standard make.conf below without any problems.

After finishing, I updated the Ports tree again and noticed that some new Gnome- related items were ready to be updated as well (gtk for example). So, I figured why not run it again.

From: Matthias Buelow Lefteris Tsintjelis [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I am not sure if I do something wrong here or it is suppose to work that way but the async option doesn't seem to work for partitions that have soft-updates turned on. Can someone please clarify the difference and if the speed difference (if any) is significant when using the async option instead of the soft-updates for cases such as the /usr/obj or as a squid data storage? Is async preferred over soft-updates when data loss is not a big issue? With softupdates, everything is asynchronous so the option doesn't make sense. For improving squid filesystem performance, have you mounted the partition with noatime? That might make some difference. No. With softupdates, file writes are asynchronous, but writes to filesystem structures (metadata) are synchronous to prevent filesystem corruption if the machine crashes. The async mount option writes both asynchronously. You can't use the async mount option on a volume with softupdates turned on because the two options are mutually exclusive.

keeping ports up to date on two personal machines
Hello guys, I just have a quick question. I have two FreeBSD-5.4-p2 machines, and instead of using cvsup on both machines to keep my ports up to date could I just rsync /usr/ports/ from the faster machine to the other one without any issues? I understand I could run a private cvsup server, but for two machines this seems a little excessive. Any suggestions or problems with this idea?

3G file burns to -514M file on DVD-R
I have a gzip'd database backup file that's 3GB in size. I used mkisofs to create an iso image for burning to a DVD-R. Both the mkisofs and growisofs process appeared to finish successfully; but 'ls -alh' shows the resulting file to be -514M in size when the DVD-R is mounted in FreeBSD 4.10. When I mount the dvd in a separate FreeBSD 5.4 system, ls -alh results in 'ls: /cdrom/pgdumpall.gz: Value too large to be stored in data type'. I ftp'd the original 3GB file from the FreeBSD 4.10 system to the FreeBSD 5.4 system. ls -alh reads the size of the original file correctly. Windows reads the DVD-R and shows the file size correctly. I've tried recreating the iso image using -r and -l options and burning the iso file with and without the -dvd-compat option; but the results remain the same. Any ideas or advice?

Re: Can't mount partitions with soft-updates enabled with async option
Giorgos Keramidas wrote: Why would you want to do that? Soft-updates already provides most of the benefits of an async mount plus some extra goodies, like never leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state. Kalimera Giorgo, For boosting io speed to the max it can get. The system is very stable (no crashes whatsover) and UPS monitored and protected so chances of having an inconsistent filesystem are very low or am I wrong? (I am refering to an async mounted filesystem) The speed gain of mounting a squid cache as async shouldn't really be that big, but the guarantees of avoiding data loss when a filesystem is mounted with softupdates are too big to ignore :-) Well, that would probably depend on the requests per second but for a pretty busy squid box (disk cache is already split to a few disks) and to keep things running even more smooth and optimal, this would probably boost the io performance further more (if I understood everything right). The reason I am thinking of switching to async mode is that I am getting some physical io page faults (very small percentage compared to the requests per second but still) and I am already using the noatime option with soft-updates of course. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
