Re: Dell 530 RAID 5 Recommendations

It has Dual Xeon 1.5 GHz CPUs, 4 x Fujitsu AIC-7892A MAJ3182M SCSI HDs, 1 GB RDRAM, Nvidia Elsa Gloria II Pro video, Integrated 3Com NIC, Lynksys Wireless-G USB network adapter, and Integrated Adaptec AIC-7892 SCSI controller. I would like to setup RAID 5. The intended use is in my home network as a personal SOA/J2EE/MySQL development box and family file server. Please review and comment on my assumptions: 1) FreeBSD 6-STABLE has fixed any 5.X SMP issues. There was a problem but this was fixed at 5.4. There are odd reports of problems with older hardware. I have had a problem with an oldish quad Compaq machine which I have not had time to get to the bottom of. 2) I will need an additional RAID controller card. 3) FreeBSD has issues similar to the folks at OpenBSD (my firewall OS) regarding Adaptec - http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html: we do not recommend the Adaptec cards for use. * Adaptec AAC-2622, AAC-364, AAC-3642, 2200S, 2410SA, 2610SA, 2810SA, 21610SA Have a look at the hardware compat list at http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.0R/hardware-i386.html this may help with the raid card. I would appreciate some recommendations with a focus on price/performance. Thanks, Matt Matt, One thought I would separate the file server support from a development machine. You may get into speed problems when heavily loaded. For my network I use 2 modest machines with large IDE drives running a HA setup as a file server. They sync to each other via a Gigbyte direct Ethernet connection and if one goes down or if off line for maintenance the other takes over. See http://linux-ha.org/ .

Why do you have two perl runs? More importantly, you will remove
anything which is not whitespace or not newline. That means, in the
end, you should have a file filled w/ whitespace only.
perl -pi -00 -e 1 $file
echo $file: Done

Hello Parv!
Yes I meant blank lines :)
I've used the script for a long time now.
The only error is that it removes the top blank space, if any.
Which is a bit annoying. It's fine for scripts with shebangs but not
for custom laid out documents etc.
I just wanted to know where that error was.
I use the Perl runs because those were the only runs people gave me.
You know how it is, you enter a FreeBSD help channel and ask how you
do this or that, and the upper gentlemen always reply Learn Perl, and
then they go on giving you Perl runs :)
Your suggestion looks very very good.
So is this alright?

LDAP authentication problems
Hi, I have problems to get LDAP authentiction working (pam_ldap)and after two days of struggle I'm almost giving up... I've tried few howtos like that one from samba.idealx.org but without success. First I wanted to run Samba PDC on FreeBSD, but I've stuck with pam_ldap authentication. Now I can: - browse LDAP database with ldapsearch or from other machine with LDAP browser - I'm able to use ldapsearch with user account created in this database ie.: 'ldapsearch -D uid=testuser,ou=Users,dc=OHRADNI,dc=NET -W' 'Enter LDAP Password: mypassword' '[will list all entries]' But when I try to use it for authentication it just don't work. For example I can't login with 'ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Because I have loglevel -1 I can see many data in /var/log/debug.log, but I'm not sure what exactly I should look for in this debug output thus I don't know if problem is on LDAP side or something else in my setup. (I've attached gziped part of debug.log) Can somebody help ? Does someone have working setup of LDAP authentication on FreeBSD 6.0 and would be so kind to sent me some quick howto or give an advice ?

Correct, I chose '1' and then the system hangs (no messages/errors). I simply converted a 6GB FAT32 partition into a UFS2 slice (chopped into three 2GB partitions). Well, I still am guessing the problem lies in individual slices' boot sectors and not the MBR. just try and set the bootable flags in the slices the way you think they should be and see what happens.

You can also try changing the setting for plug-and-play OS to off, (or on, if it was off before) You can ignore the message: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 as long as your serial port actually responds.

Worst case, disble the motherboard serial ports and buy a pci serial port card.

The MBR itself looks OK. According to that piece of menu you posted, you just added another bootable slice. So, there are now two bootable FreeBSD slices and one bootable Microsloth slice. Correct, I chose '1' and then the system hangs (no messages/errors). I simply converted a 6GB FAT32 partition into a UFS2 slice (chopped into three 2GB partitions). Well, I still am guessing the problem lies in individual slices' boot sectors and not the MBR. just try and set the bootable flags in the slices the way you think they should be and see what happens. In sysinstall I toggle bootable but it puts an 'A' which seems to mean auto-bootable. I can only set one 'A' here. -- Peter I tend to agree with Jerry and others that the problem is not with the MBR, but with the Windows boot sector in the first partition. If that's true, you can't fix it with sysintall or FreeBSD. You have fix it with Windows tools. If you were running Windows 2000 or XP in the Windows partition, I would recommend that you use the Windows 2000 System Recovery Console and run the fixboot program to install a new Windows boot sector on the Windows partition. If you're running an older version of Windows, you need to find out what tool it uses to restore a boot sector. Chances are in the process you'll wipe out the FreBSD MBR which you'll have to fix using FreeBSD. I guess that's where boot0cfg comes in, but I've never used it. The best advice, though, is to backup everything you can before proceeding. -- Ken Stevenson Allen-Myland Inc. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Memory leak?
After running some number crunching for the last twelve hours I noticed my box starting to use swap. Given that it has 4gb in it (of which 3gb is available, see my other email for that issue) and I know that the app never uses more than around 1gb I was surprised. Looking at the numbers from top I was even more surprised, there seems to be a significant chunk of memory unaccounted for (from memory when I checked after a couple of hours the inactive memory was around 1300M with Free in the 400M range, everything basically totalling to around the 3gb mark as expected). The app is driven by a script and is only running for around 1/2 hr per dataset after which it shuts down and restarts on a new dataset, so all memory should be freed up/made inactive after each restart, no? Mem: 274M Active, 227M Inact, 263M Wired, 95M Cache, 214M Buf, 4536K Free Swap: 4068M Total, 707M Used, 3361M Free, 17% Inuse real memory = 3221159936 (3071 MB) avail memory = 3106529280 (2962 MB) What's the best way to track down more information as to the cause of this problem?

I don't really understand what it is you're looking for, but the source code for *all* the FreeBSD `programs' is available at: http://cvsweb.freebsd.org/ It's also available through FTP, CVS, CVSup and is distributed as part of the official release CD-ROMs. You can look for yourself, any time :) Is there a find command [that takes patterns] so if I know the name (or part of the name) of a program of interest, I can find out the directory path to it so I can find it easily. Also, where do I look for the basic sector i/o programs (the ones that underly the file-system, they are eventually called just before the hardware does the i/o] and what are their names? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In usderland, they're called open, lseek, read, and write. Just open the raw disk device and treat it like a regular file, and remember you need to access it in 512-byte chunks. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What do I use for a flash plugin for Firefox? The auto plugin installer do-dad choked (I guess it was expecting linux) Thanks Chris Maness ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
