Re: Expire undeleted mail older than specified age

Hi Marcelo,

Well, i have copied the perl script of expire_mail.pl in
/usr/local/sbin/expire_mail.pl. And put the following into my cron
job:

0 23 * * 3 /usr/local/sbin/expire_mail -l -M -a 60 /var/mail/*

Seems not work. So i run the command manually and found that
/usr/local/sbin/expire_mail: Command not found.

Do i missed out any steps? 

Cheers,
Ann

How to add CPU on server

2005-07-12 Thread Snopy Land
Hi,

My server is 5.2.1. Originally, my server has only one CPU. I need to
add one more cpu on it.
However, after reboot and get from the dmesg, it only show one CPU. 
Do I need to recompile the kernel? Any hints?

Thanks.

 Thanks for the response.
 
 This would not really be practical, I have several servers that may need
 upgrading on different sites. They are 1U rack mount servers in
 different data centres and it would make upgrading very awkward,
 assuming I can find a card that will fit within the case.

Ahh, but awkwardness and upgrading is almost always synonymous.
Maybe you can get a USB floppy drive and try to console that way? You
may want to also look at the BIOS and see if there is an update or
tweak on the video card or AGP. I know you said you tested it on
another PC, but did you test it on another server of the same EXACT
spec's (BIOS version included)? Also if this video card shares mem
with the system mem, you could try giving the card like 32M to start
on, then take that back down once its up and working.

Look at the 1st line of the script and check whether it is
/usr/bin/perl or /usr/local/bin/perl and if second that you have a

Yes you'd do, unless you enabled SMP in the kernel of the sincle CPU
machine.

options SMP

in /sys/i386/conf/YOURKERNEL I think that is enough (rebuild and
reinstall the kernel of course).

Internal vs. External domains and e-mail






Hello;

We are going to migrate to an Interal Windows 2003 AD
structure which will also entail changing our Internal
DNS to a non-routeable domain.

Currently we are using qmail  qmail-scanner to relay
mail to an Internal Exchange Server.

 mydomain.com
  | 
|---|
I-Net - FBSD4.11/qmail/qmail-scanner - MS Exchange

I am looking for a way to rewrite the From header on
mail originating from the Exchange box to change the
non-routeable domain name to that of our External
domain. 

   mydomain.com 
newdomain.local
|  |
I-Net - FBSD4.11/qmail/qmail-scanner - MS Exchange

Any mail originating from the Exchange Server and
going to the I-Net should have its From header
rewritten:

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've seen a number of postings at various sites (
qmail.org etc) and very little in the way of answers
vis a vie qmail.  If anyone has experience with this
problem I'd sure appriciate some guidance. 

If I have to migrate to another e-mail packack such as
ProcMail I'm willing to do so but would rather not ( a
lot of effort spent on my qmail-attachments.txt file
).

Thank you for  your time - Please CC any response to
my address - I am not a member of this group.

First, thanks to all for the suggestions.

Now, using the same scenario,

  1) rl0 (real.ip.no.1) --- ISP x
 
  2) rl1 (real.ip.no.2) --- ISP y

Suppose 1) is down and I´m using 2). If I ping www.google.com,
it will go out through 2). What I really need to do is to issue
the same ping www.google.com but make go out through 1) !!

Of course I could switch the default route to 1), test, then switch it back to 
2),
but I can´t do it this way because internet traffic should remain undisturbed.

That is why the Forcing a packet... subject.

The most important advantage is that it is BSD licensed.

Hmmm, I'm not sitting on FreeBSD, but looking at the manpage I can only
see -y (bzip2 compression) and -z (gzip compression); I couldn't find an
option called -Z.  The relative merits or disadvantages of gzip
vs. bzip2 compression are described in a couple of short comparisons

 be a problem with Xorg rather than device detection.  Any suggestions
 would be welcomed, since my desktop is essentially useless at this
 point.  (I'm sending this from my Winbloze laptop.)
 
 One other question.  After running the gnome_upgrade.sh script, when I
 run portupgrade there are updates to gnome and lots of gstreamer
 plugin stuff. Is it safe to run those through portupgrade?  Or do I
 need to run the gnome_upgrade.sh script again?

Are you running moused?

$ tar -cZf foo.tar.Z foo
tar: .Z compression not supported

So it's still recognised at some level.

In fact

$ tar -cf foo.tar foo
$ compress foo.tar
$ tar -tZf foo.tar.Z
foo
foo/files
foo/files/patch-Makefile.in
foo/distinfo

So it will still unpack.  Presumably won't create since gzip is now 
ubiquitous and compress is awful by comparison.

Hi all.

more efficient -z or -Z ?
 

It depends what you need.  If you need command-line argument 
compatibility with some other hosts, then gtar is better since it will 
install pretty much everywhere (and is the default on e.g. Linux).  Or 
if gtar does something that BSD tar doesn't (incremental backups, 
maybe?  who knows what other bloat).  Otherwise, I have never found any 
specific disadvantage to BSD tar.  You can easily have both and the 
actual tar files should be compatible.

The problem lies with the fact that, there is a router between my rl0 and the

Maybe you can get a USB floppy drive and try to console that way? You

tweak on the video card or AGP. 


Thanks again. I had checked the BIOS settings and hadn't seen anything 
that would help but I didn't consider a BIOS upgrade, so I'll check this.



I know you said you tested it on
another PC, but did you test it on another server of the same EXACT
spec's (BIOS version included)? 


No it wasn't the same system at all I just wanted to see if it was a 
problem with the CDs or the system. I tried on a different spec system 
again and an install is currently underway (i.e. out of three different 
systems one doesn't seem to work). So I think it is the one server type 
I have a problem with.



Also if this video card shares mem
with the system mem, you could try giving the card like 32M to start
on, then take that back down once its up and working.


I'll look into the BIOS setting again.

I don't think so.  You can follow Chad Leigh's advice and ping a router 
on your ISP.  Figure out where your packets through ISP1 are routed (try 
traceroute) and then add a static route through ethernet1 to that 
router.  You can do similar for ISP2.  Then a ping of either router will 
always try to go through the network card appropriate to that ISP.

What I do for testing is:

3. Ping an IP online using the '-S' argument to specify

Nom what you want to do is

ping   isp1.router.net

Since #1 should still have its IP assigned, the system should route  
traffic out #1 for targets that are in the same subnet as the IP  
address for #1.  Your assigned  ISP #1 router/gateway address is  
probably in the same subnet but at the ISP, so traffic to it will go  
out #1 even with a default route of #2.  This will tell you if the  
link to the ISP is back up or not.

Of course I could switch the default route to 1), test, then switch  
it back to 2),
but I can´t do it this way because internet traffic should remain

I also tried compiling the kernel with geom_stripe as an option.  I get

PIM-SSM+DiffServ+SHISA

2005-07-12 Thread Tiago Sousa
Hello

 

I am facing, for too long, the follow problem: 

I want to implement in my local testbed the PIM-SSM protocol (with success),
the diffserv model (failed) and the shisa (success). The problem is in the
diffserv model:

 

It is possible to implement the diffserv model, with ALTQ, in the freebsd
5.4 release? I am asking this because I can compile the kernel (KAME) with
the altq options but when I am configuring the /etc/rc.conf file, namely
when I enable the ipv6_enable and/or ipv6_gateway_enable the follow error
occurs:

 

in6_if2idlen:unknown link type (34) 

in6_if2idlen:unknown link type (249)

in6_if2idlen:unknown link type (244)

 

I know these are only warnings but when they occur I can not ping other
computers (only direct attached links) and the computer doesn’t make forward
of packets. If I comment those two options the warnings disappear but,
obviously, I still unable to send/receive pings.

 

Anybody knows what is wrong?

 

I´ve tried to install an old version of freebsd, 4.11, and another error
occurs (in all the computers):

 

ad0: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - reseting

ata0: resetting devices…

 

I don’t know what more can I do…

 

I would appreciate any help…

 

Thanks…

 However, if you run ktrace on a simple program like ls: ktrace ls
 then do a kdump | less, you will see that after finding ls, 
 /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 is the first thing accessed.  So, when things start 
 working again, /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 is magically fixed, which just makes 
 no sense.

 One final thought is that it could be the disk.  You could try 
 installing smartmontools and see if the disk thinks it is OK -- though 
 of course it could be the controller.  But in such a case I might expect 
 other errors.

firefox 1.0.4 crssh

2005-07-12 Thread T.F. Cheng
hi,
  I am running firefox 1.0.4,1 on freebsd5.4. lately I
encountered a lot of crashes. My first impression is
with the flashplugin, to run flashplugin, I followed
an article on http://freebsdgirl.com/?page_id=550,
doing this has enable my flashplugin but firefox is
unsatable and started to has a lot of print-out during
the session:
[snap]
SetWindow
NewStream
WriteReady
Write
WriteReady
Write
DestroyStream
New
SetWindow
SetWindow
SetWindow
Destroy
[snap]
after a while, firefox would just crash. 
then I thought I don't really need flash, so I
deinstall the linuxpluginwrapper and even recompiled
firefox again, but the print-out and crash still
exist, does anybody know what is going on? thanks!

X-chat works fine on my amd64 box.

Mplayer  xmms work, don't know about VLC.

 Email (Mozilla Thunderbird)
 Audio Streaming/Recording (streamTranscoder, streamripper, sc_trans maybe)
 BitTorrent (Azureus)

Haven't tried these.

 Audio/Video Encoding (lame, oggenc, various video encoding tools)

lame and oggenc work.

 Basically I'm wondering opinions on either the i386 or amd64 version of 
 FreeBSD for my hardware for FreeBSD 5.4. Which works better? For what 
 reasons? Are there any other caveats?

I've never had problems with my MSI NEO FSR mobo with K8T800 chipset

Some parts of NForce chipsets don't seem to work very well. See the
mailing list archives.

 My other hardware includes:
 
 Sound Blaster Augidy 2 Platinum

Should work with the 'snd_emu10k1' kernel driver.

 GeForce FX5600 (MSI)

Should work with the standard 'nv' driver from Xorg. No accellerated 3D,
though.

 TDK VeloCD 40x12x48 CD Burner
 Sony DRU500A DVD Burner

ATAPI drives should work fine.

 3) I know of a couple applications that don't build on the amd64 such as 
 linux-firefox and Azureus. Does anyone have any info on when there might 
 be versions compatible with the amd64, 

Basically, when someone is interested enough to fix the breakage.

 or if there is any other software 
 like them that would work with the amd64 version (main concern is flash 
 on websites)?

There is a open source flash plugin. See gplflash.sf.net It's in ports
as libflash-0.4.13 and flashplugin-mozilla-0.4.13.

Folks,

The Gdk-WARNING may be due to my using ctwm, but the 
LoadPlugin failure has me stumped++.  Am I going to have
to go back to the linux-* ports of mozilla and firefox

I've rebuilt my linux_base-8 to re-install libstd++.so.5,

Any insights here much appreciated!

   My girlfriend, who is a tier 1 Comcast internet service rep,
says you probably have a bad modem configuration file _on their
end_.  She advises this is a common problem (We've been getting a
lot of that recently.) and you should call Comcast tech support.

Typically when setting up Comcast cable connections, the first thing you
have to do is initially configure your web browser to use their server as a
proxy server.  Comcast traps all connections from new sites to their
server, but unless you have it set to proxy from that same server, your
machine cannot complete their sign up procedures.

If one changes the device connecting to the cable ``modem'' (e.g.
from a Windows machine to FreeBSD box, or perhaps to a commodity
router/firewall from Netgear, LinkSys, etc.), you will probably
have to power cycle the cable modem to get it to accept a NIC
with a new MAC address.  Most of the low-end router/firewall
appliances have the ability to change their MAC address to deal
with cases where the cable/DSL provider hard codes it to the
original machine.

bad tape hanging machine

2005-07-12 Thread David Bear
I have a freebsd 4.x machine running simple file and print services.
It has a scsi tape drive installed -- externally. It is attached to an
adaptec 2940uw. The internal 3 hard drives are attached to an adaptec
29160.

Last friday, the whole system locked up with an ugly error message
about scb's and scsi buffers .. lots of garbage. I was afraid I had
lost a hard drive.

So I started removing the drives and testing each one individually.
They all were perfect. So I removed the tape from the tape drive, and
booted the system.  Boot normally.. all is well. I put a new tape in
the drive, run a tar job to it okay. Run a dump of all file systems,
ok.

Now I wondering, could a bad tape cause the whole system to lock up?
That seems really BAD to have a single cassette tape bring a whole
system down.  Anyone else seen this?

Hi Bill,

That's exactly the procedure I had to follow to get my router working,
so I assume it is not going to be any different with the FreeBSD box.
You'll have to install / dual boot into Windows, use the install disc,
note the data and then you'll be off.

   comes back host could not be resolved.  How should I set up my
   network?
 
My girlfriend, who is a tier 1 Comcast internet service rep,
 says you probably have a bad modem configuration file _on their
 end_.  She advises this is a common problem (We've been getting a
 lot of that recently.) and you should call Comcast tech support.
 
 Typically when setting up Comcast cable connections, the first thing you
 have to do is initially configure your web browser to use their server as a
 proxy server.  Comcast traps all connections from new sites to their
 server, but unless you have it set to proxy from that same server, your
 machine cannot complete their sign up procedures.
 
 If one changes the device connecting to the cable ``modem'' (e.g.
 from a Windows machine to FreeBSD box, or perhaps to a commodity
 router/firewall from Netgear, LinkSys, etc.), you will probably
 have to power cycle the cable modem to get it to accept a NIC
 with a new MAC address.  Most of the low-end router/firewall
 appliances have the ability to change their MAC address to deal
 with cases where the cable/DSL provider hard codes it to the
 original machine.

PIM-SSM+DiffServ+SHISA

2005-07-12 Thread Tiago Miguel Amaral de Sousa
Hello

I am facing, for too long, the follow problem: 
I want to implement in my local testbed the PIM-SSM protocol (with success), the
diffserv model (failed) and the shisa (success). The problem is in the diffserv
model:

It is possible to implement the diffserv model, with ALTQ, in the freebsd 5.4
release? I am asking this because I can compile the kernel (KAME) with the altq
options but when I am configuring the /etc/rc.conf file, namely when I enable
the ipv6_enable and/or ipv6_gateway_enable the follow error occurs:

in6_if2idlen:unknown link type (34) 
in6_if2idlen:unknown link type (249)
in6_if2idlen:unknown link type (244)

I know these are only warnings but when they occur I can not ping other
computers (only direct attached links) and the computer doesn’t make forward of
packets. If I comment those two options the warnings disappear but, obviously,
I still unable to send/receive pings.

Anybody knows what is wrong?

I´ve tried to install an old version of freebsd, 4.11, and another error occurs
(in all the computers):

ad0: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - reseting
ata0: resetting devices…

I don’t know what more can I do…

I would appreciate any help…

Thanks…

Tiago Sousa

Hi Bill,

That's exactly the procedure I had to follow to get my router working,
so I assume it is not going to be any different with the FreeBSD box.
You'll have to install / dual boot into Windows, use the install disc,
note the data and then you'll be off. 

I've done it entirely from Linux systems as I don't have anything that runs
Windows.  Basically the cable modem assigns an IP address to something on
its LAN side with DHCP.  It doesn't make any difference whether it's a
Windows box, FreeBSD, Linux, or a commodity router/firewall.

It's been over a year since I last did this so the details are a bit fuzzy
(to say the least).  As I remember, there was a simple web interface, and
all it required was some information from the customer's account contract
to get the modem authorized.  Once that was done, the Comcast routers Just
Worked.  The only thing we do that's a bit out of the oridinary is to set
up uucp over TCP for the cable customer's incoming and outgoing e-mail so
they don't have to use Comcast's ``service'' or deal with port 25 blocking
issues.

Running KDE 3.4 in FreBSD 5.2.1 (libm.so.3 not found)

2005-07-12 Thread John Cholewa
I updated the version of KDE on my box (5.2.1-RELEASE) to 3.4, and I'm 
getting the following result when running vncserver:


 Could not open library kcminit.la: Shared object libm.so.3 not found
 /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libm.so.3 not found
 Could not open library ksmserver.la: Shared object libm.so.3 not found
 /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libm.so.3 not found
 startkde: Shutting down...

I found that I have libm.so.2, and I tried to find out how I could 
update that file.  I had presumed that updating KDE itself would 
recursively handle it (I cvsup then do make clean  make  make 
install in the port's directory).  But now a web search of this 
particular problem suggests that the only way to fix it is to update the 
entire OS, and I don't want to do that.  Things break when I try to do 
major updates (I had huge nightmares when I upped versions of php and 
perl to 5 and 5.8, respectively), and my server setup is smooth enough 
that I don't want to take any unnecessary risks to get client apps to work.


So is there a port that will provide this file?

ports problem/question

2005-07-12 Thread Denny White

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


I know this concerns the ports mailing list,
but I just wanted to ask this list, for those
who've run into the same the same problem,
how long it usually takes before a port is
included on the mirrors once a problem has
been fixed with it.
I tried to install /usr/ports/sysutils/k3b
for the cd-writer  it got as far as it trying
to install cdrdao which is currently version
1.1.9, I believe,  then failed, with message
saying there's a vulnerability.  There's a fixed
version at Sourceforge, but I hate to mess with
anything on my system that's not been checked,
approved  included in the ports tree. Hence,
my question about the lagtime between fix and
inclusion. Meantime, still using burncd.
Thanks for any feedback/help.

Re: FreeBSD on AMD64 3000+ - amd64 or i386 version of FreeBSD?

2005-07-12 Thread Mark Kane

Hi, and thanks for the great response!

I'm checking the ports now as you said. So far that list doesn't seem to 
include really anything that I would be using.


The Azureus BitTorrent client I was mentioning requires Java, which is 
what I think failed before. Have you gotten any Java to work on your 
amd64 system?


Another thing I was planning to try was VMWare with Windows 2000, 
because I have a few music production applications that just won't run 
on *nix or in WINE. Do you know if the VMWare port runs on amd64? I also 
saw qemu on your site...does that run on amd64 FreeBSD?


Also, do you recommend -RELEASE or -STABLE for the amd64? What do you 
run currently?


Thanks again!

-Mark

1) I have an AMD64 3000+ processor. I've been reading some things around 
the Internet about ports and other software not compiling properly with 
the amd64 version of FreeBSD. Most of the things I've read about this 
have been from 2004 or even late 2003, so I'm wondering how things have 
progressed since then. Are there still many ports or software that don't 
compile properly? Is there a list somewhere of known ports not to work 
on the amd64 version?
   



You could check the ports marked BROKEN for a connection to amd64:

cd /usr/ports
find . -name Makefile |xargs grep 'BROKEN.*amd64'

 


Here is a short list of main things I will use this PC for:
IRC (X-Chat, maybe irssi)
   



X-chat works fine on my amd64 box.

 


Web Browsing (Mozilla Firefox)
   



Firefox works.

 


Media playing (XMMS/VLC/mplayer)
   



Mplayer  xmms work, don't know about VLC.

 


Email (Mozilla Thunderbird)
Audio Streaming/Recording (streamTranscoder, streamripper, sc_trans maybe)
BitTorrent (Azureus)
   



Haven't tried these.

 


Audio/Video Encoding (lame, oggenc, various video encoding tools)
   



lame and oggenc work.

 

Basically I'm wondering opinions on either the i386 or amd64 version of 
FreeBSD for my hardware for FreeBSD 5.4. Which works better? For what 
reasons? Are there any other caveats?
   



I've never had problems with my MSI NEO FSR mobo with K8T800 chipset
(MS-6702), from 5.3-RELEASE to 5.4-STABLE.

 

2) Will my hardware work properly with the amd64 version? I see my 
motherboard (Giga-Byte GA-K8NS Pro) is listed as Functional on the 
FreeBSD amd64 motherboard page 
(http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/amd64/motherboards.html).
   



Some parts of NForce chipsets don't seem to work very well. See the
mailing list archives.

 


My other hardware includes:

Sound Blaster Augidy 2 Platinum
   



Should work with the 'snd_emu10k1' kernel driver.

 


GeForce FX5600 (MSI)
   



Should work with the standard 'nv' driver from Xorg. No accellerated 3D,
though.

 


TDK VeloCD 40x12x48 CD Burner
Sony DRU500A DVD Burner
   



ATAPI drives should work fine.

 

3) I know of a couple applications that don't build on the amd64 such as 
linux-firefox and Azureus. Does anyone have any info on when there might 
be versions compatible with the amd64, 
   



Basically, when someone is interested enough to fix the breakage.

 

or if there is any other software 
like them that would work with the amd64 version (main concern is flash 
on websites)?
   



There is a open source flash plugin. See gplflash.sf.net It's in ports
as libflash-0.4.13 and flashplugin-mozilla-0.4.13.

 There's always faad2.

Actually, faad2 won't do the job.  The m4p format uses a variant of
the md5 hash algorithm to make it difficult to play this music on
anyone else's system.  It will play on my iPod and my iTunes
installation, but if I give the file to someone else, it won't play.

There's probably a key somewhere in the iTunes DB and installed on the
iPod that helps decode the hash.

I think I'll try jHymn, as suggested by anothe poster.

 is that correct?

 In this case that host will be sacrificed, if rl0 is down.

 Do you have any suggestions on time or whois servers? Don't worry

  Mario,
 
  I think the only way to do what you want is to find two hosts on the
  internet that don't conflict with what you do on a day to day basis. Then
  add custom routes for those two specific hosts, and with those routes, you
  force traffic through each NIC.
 
  A perfect example of two public servers would be time or whois servers.
  Just be nice and dont ping too much (i.e., only send two small pings
  every 2 minutes or something).

   So the fact that i can ping the hop next to rl0 doesn´t mean the link is

Re: How to add CPU on server

 Yes you'd do, unless you enabled SMP in the kernel of the sincle CPU
 machine.
 
 options SMP
 
 in /sys/i386/conf/YOURKERNEL I think that is enough (rebuild and
 reinstall the kernel of course).

IIRC you should also consider to add device apic to your kernel
config (if you dont have already, of course) and perhaps have a 
short glimpse at the NOTES file.

Cheers,

Service redundancy : CARP, wackmole/spread, 4.x / 5.x

2005-07-12 Thread Norberto Meijome

Hi all,
I'm looking into adding some automatic failover for some services. I'd 
like to hear comments / advice on suitability of either CARP / FreeVRRP 
/ wackamole + spread for these 2 different setups (see below)
The setups are completelly independent of each other, so different 
solutions / approaches for each are OK.  Of course, I'm not interested 
in adding special hardware to do any of this, but if there are 
*significant* advantages of a hardware solution, i'd like to hear too :).


Setup 1) : - FreeBSD 4.11 Server, 3 x NICs (fxp, LAN/WAN/DMZ).
- Firewall (ipf, but thinking of moving to ipfw), ipnat
-  about 4 jails (secure FTP, email gateway with antispam, and AV).
 - Unmanaged switches used throughout.
 - No mysql / DBs.
 - email load is low (20 LAN users, but *heavy* users).
The idea is to add another server and be able to gracefully take over 
all the functionality with no or very minimum downtime.

For this setup, I was thinking of CARP, but it isn't supported in 4.x?


Setup 2): - 4 x FreeBSD 5.4 Web Servers, 2 NICs (Wan + Private Lan), 
utilising a full 100 Mbps link overall. (not sure if important, but each 
server also has HP's iLO standard on its own CAT 5, to the same switch).

- Behind Cisco managed switch.
- Apache 2.0, no DB in place.
- Currently on a simple DNS round-robin setup.
- No VRRP running on other switches on this segment of the datacentre, 
AFAIK
- How would CARP with arpbalance work on this situation? (would have to 
change the DNS to 1 IP,the virtual IP right?) Or is it better to go 
wackmole/spread? I had some problems a few years ago with wack/spread on 
8 servers running 4.x : if a server went down, another would pick up the 
IP..but never release it when the original came back up - never figured 
out what the problem was (possibly config?)




thanks in advance for your help  comments,
Beto

Re: CheckPoint vpn connectivity with FreeBSD as a Client

  Basically, we have an environment here that uses Checkpoint vpn.  My
business' IT department distrubutes SecureRemote for Windows' clients
to allow machines to get to sensitive resources.  They are very MS
Windows oriented. I have need (FreeBSD + Tomcat) to get a JDBC
connection to a database via the VPN.  Does anyone know a) if this can
be done and b) any resources for me to look at?



FWIW...
I have a similar need (FreeBSD - SecuRemote Endpoint).  Best I could 
come up with was IPSEC + PSK... but my IT dept was unwilling to assist 
(I would need the PSK from them).  I beleive it would work if you could 
get things setup on both ends.


might look into:

 Thank you in advance for any assistance.

RE: m4p conversion to mp4?

Subject: m4p conversion to mp4?


This is probably painfully obvious, but I can't find it in the ports
with a search or through google.

I recently acquired an iPod Shuffle, and am enjoying it thoroughly.
Unfortunately, I also acquired a gift card for the iTunes store, so I
thought it would be better to get a copy of Bohemian Rhapsody
through the store rather than go buy the CO.  I'm not a big enough fan
to listen to Radio GaGa if I don't have to.

Anyway, I learned something disturbing.  They give you the music you
buy in m4p format, which is an mp4 format protected by an MD5
derivative.  I think.


Even more disturbing - the mp formats are compressed so you really
aren't getting a CD-quality track.

RE: two 3C905B's in 5.4

2005-07-12 Thread Ted Mittelstaedt

The 3c905 driver is not very good.  These cards are fine under Windows
but seldom work properly under FreeBSD.  Most of the motherboards I've
tried them in don't work right with them.  We do both Windows and BSD
so you know where I put these cards when I get them.

I'll be happy to swap a pair of Netgear cards with you, send me your
address and I'll mail them to you.  If they work out OK you can mail
me your cards, otherwise just keep them.

Ted

Subject: two 3C905B's in 5.4


Hello,
I've got a 5.4 box that's going to be a router. It has two
3C905B cards
in it and i'm having a blank fill it in as you wish, of a time
getting the
cards working. Neither card likes dhcp, sometimes i'll start
dhclient and
the cards will work, sometimes they won't. If i give the -v option to
dhclient i get the message network is unreachable, see readme about
broadcast address. I know this isn't a cable modem issue or a
cable, because
i plugged in an old 3c509 isa card and it worked the first
time, this fix
isn't practical for this setup. An ifconfig check shows both 905's in
autonegociation mode 100-mbit tx, i'm wondering if i should manually set
them to something, but am unsure as to what. One card one time
gave me the
waiting to transmit error message as mentioned in the man page
and it took a
reboot to fix it. I've checked the bios on this box and it's
pnp os option
is off. Any help appreciated. If more information is needed
ask, i will send
it.
Thanks.
Dave.

I have upgraded php and tried building that extension separately. No

Danny, it uses to be easy to fix the port yourself --- just correct distinfo

send a message to the port maintainer and your best should be to supply him/her
