Problem compiling helios-qmail
Hi!
I'm trying install helios-qmail (http://helios-qmail.sourceforge.net/) which
is based on qmail-sql (http://qmail-sql.digibel.be/) and I know for sure,
that on FreeBSD 4.x it was possible to install it, but on FreeBSD 6.0 I
receive during installation only this:
./compile qmail-getpw.c `cat sql.headers`
In file included from sql.h:6,
from qmail-getpw.c:17:
/usr/include/unistd.h:356: error: conflicting types for 'read'

*** Error code 1
and 'compile' is script containing this:
#!/bin/sh
# WARNING: This file was auto-generated. Do not edit!
exec cc -O2 -c ${1+$@}
'sql.headers' only contains:
-I/usr/local/include/mysql
Any suggestions what to change for compiling this application?
Thanks
Petr
PS: Helios-qmail is very promising and if I will be able to compile it on
FreeBSD 6.0 I will try to make regular port...

Re: Problem install 6.0 (release) on Sony Vaio TX610P
Just a note to let you know that I have fixed the problem with the
detection / driver allocation of the onboard NIC in the Sony Vaio TX610P
(might be useful for others so I write for the archive) ...
I am new to FreeBSD so apologies if I get the exact details /
terminology of the fix wrong (it worked for me though).
The source for the fxp driver is in:
/usr/src/sys/dev/fxp/if_fxp.c
The NICs that this driver knows about seems to be hard coded in a table
in the source.
I inserted this line (at line 180 in the 6.0-RELEASE code):
{ 0x1069, -1, Intel 82562EM/EX/GX Pro/100 Ethernet },
And re-built and re-installed the kernel. All worked fine after that. I
think that this NIC is common to the Sony Vaio TX series (to date at
least) so the same fix should work for other TX series machines.
Now to fix the problem with the wireless card...
Best wishes,
Mark

Re: Wanted: Flash player for browser_of_choice....
Hi, I've found this topic another day and today I've subscribed to this list in order to post this message that I hope could be helpful to someone. I've recentely managed to make linux-firefox ports to install flashplayer automatically (i.e. without relying on www/flashplugin ports) on freebsd (which I've never managed to do before). Even better, it's installed version 7 or flashplayer which I've almost never managed to run with firefox ports. I'm not a lawyer too but as flashplayer was not installed via ports and as it was firefox itself that fetch, downloaded and installed it, I think it's technically running under firefox regardless wherever firefox is running on. But that's only my guess... I'll described what happened so that anyone that want, can try and make it work to. I don't know exactely what make it work as I've tried it before without success. That's why I will explain the steps I took but I don't know which ones are relevant to the result I've achieved. 1) I run fredbsd current 7. 2) I always have firefox and flashplugin ports installed on my system and by adjusting /etc/libmap.conf I had success on displaying pages with flash contents, although I've always have problems when I installed newer versions of firefox or flashplugin. After such updates it was common that firefox crash when it find flash content and sometimes I wasn't able to fix it. The last time it happened I've only managed to avoid it to crash when it find flash content, but it didn't show any flash content in the page but only a frame where flash contend should be. 3) Tired of fixing these problems I tried to install linux-firefox that I've heard that would have better results. It really has, because after install, it played flash contents without any other adjustments. I think linux-firefox continue to rely on www/flashplayer ports to play flash contents but it seems to do it better. I noticed that it used flashplayer version 6, the same that I used to use with firefox ports. Now I had firefox and linux-firefox installed at the same time in my system and the nice thing was that bookmarks, extensions and etc were shared by both. 4) Recentelly during a ports update, portupgrade advise that flashplugin would be deinstallled as a license problem was identified. I've accepted it and it was automatically deinstalled. 5) After that when I use firefox, it started to crash again when it finds any flash content in a page and I realized it was because flashplugin have been deinstalled (at that time I wasn't aware of the HOLD_PKGS =['linuxpluginwrapper*' option to prevent it of being deinstalled and after deinstalled it didn't help to have it and try to install flashplugin again). 6) Then I tried to run linux-firefox. It hasn't crashed when it finds flash contents but couldn't play it too. But instead of crashing it showed an upper bar saying that a plugin is missing and ask if it can try to fetch and install it for me. I've said yes but unfortunately it's said it couldn't find an appropriate plugin and that I had to do it manually. 7) After that I've gave up and try to find anyone with the same problem in any forum. Then I've found this thread Re: Wanted: Flash player for browser_of_choice with interesting information about the subject but aparentely without any real solution, apart from asking adobe for a native version or a change in license. 8) Then I found someone saying that have tried gnash (GNU Flash movie player) without success either but that it could be a viable alternative. 9) So I tried to install gnash with the following command: sudo portupgrade -R -r -N -i gnash 10) Then I realized that it was better to gave it the WITH_FIREFOX=yes option and so I did: sudo vi /usr/ports/graphics/gnash/Makefile and included that option there (I don't know it there is a better way to ddo that) running the installation again with the command: sudo portupgrade -R -r -N -i -f gnash. This time it asked me where was the firefox binary and I pointed it to the linux-firefox binary that had installed in my system. 11) After that I tried to run linux-firefox again in a page with flash contents. And again it doesn't show any flash content but only the upper bar saying a plugin is missing. 12) I then tried to find any evidence that linux-firefox was aware of gnash in any way by inspecting about, tools menu, extensions etc, but without success. 13) Finally I clicked in the upper bar so that linux-firefox could try again to fetch and install flashplugin by itself. I was surprised when the progress bar start to move saying it has been found and was being installed. It finished successfully and after that linux-firefox started to show flash contents correctely and and when I right click in any flash contents I realized that it was flashplayer 7 that was running. I don't know what has changed to make it be able to install flashplugin

pkg_create: directory-permissions: bug or feature?
hi, the packaging-system (pkg_create, pkg_add) uses the tar file format for creating/installing packages and some special files inside the tar. everything is really fine for me, except the handling of directories, especially if they're empty! these dir's never get installed! if they're not empty, their modes/owners are not being taken care of and they get installed with the values from the current user (mostly root) and the current umask. because of any packaging getting really weird, it does not make sense to issue hundreds of @mode or @exec chown commands inside the packing-list. also, i know it's possible to write install-scripts for everything which also changes the permissions after installing, but if the stage is setup correctly, why take care for this twice? can someone explain, why file-owners/modes, which are set inside the tarballs are being extracted correctly, and the directories not? br cu... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Intel Macs, FreeBSD, and drivers
The consensus of the group is that FreeBSD should run fine on an Intel Mac. I'm interested in the time lag between the availability of drivers on an Intel Mac and on FreeBSD. Question1: If there is a driver for a device that works on an Intel Mac (under OS X), will that driver work under FreeBSD? For example, suppose a very new Intel Mac has a new disk controller, is there some process by which we can get its driver into FreeBSD? E.g. via a download from either Apple or the chip set vendor? Question2: Can we expect the volume of Intel Macs to improve (shorten) the time delay between the existence of new hardware and the availability of supporting drivers on FreeBSD?

You mentioned termination. The documentation for your tape drive will
tell you if you need it (I though modern stuff was self terminating, but
I don't have any modern stuff to confirm that :-)). If not, then maybe
you do need a terminator. Or maybe the tape drive is knackered ;-(

PS You should use all instead of 0 in the above; I just know where
my tape drive is. Also, it takes about 10 seconds from power on for the
drive to show up. A rescan inside 10 secs and nothing shows up.

RE: ASUS WL-167G config (was ural driver, Belkin F5D7050 USB not working)...
Thanks for the reply. I bought the same Asus WL-167G recently looking at other posts on the internet but I am unable to get it work. It shows up in ifconfig and then when I try to connect to the router it simply does not work. I run the following command ifconfig ural0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xff00 ssid DRAGON (my ssid)ifconfig -a shows as NO CARRIER but once it showed as associated buteven then it did not work (i tried accessesing the net).My router is not configured for Encryption or anything. I control securityby the Mac Address of the wireless device.IF you have a step by step instructions on how to make it work that will be great.I havent spent a whole lot of time trying to make it work either, so if you have theinstructions handy then its good or else I will keep trying, shouldnt be thatdifficult.Thanks,Rakesh snip Rakesh, You may have this sorted by now, but just in case... The good news is that you have the ural0 device, so now it's just a matter of configuration. Without encryption the only other thing I needed to specify to ifconfig was the channel (check the settings on your router for the channel number): eg. ifconfig ural0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid DRAGON channel 1 and I was on the network. If that doesn't work, check the settings on your router - have you added the MAC address to the filter list, and are you sure WEP/WPA is turned off, are you in range of the router?

IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the questions (the hackers). Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (obviously, substitute your mail address for [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2.

The Complete FreeBSD: errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. 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. Note also that the book has now been released for free download in PDF form. Instead of downloading the changed pages, you may prefer to download the entire book. See http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/ for more information. Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing? Please let me know: I'm no longer constantly updating it, but I may be able to help Greg ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Gettext problem on Amd64 port
Hi guys. I'm trying to build some ports on a system Running the 5.4 version of FreeBSD and am having a problem related to Gettext. While building a port I get the following error: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libintl.so unsupported file layout. I tried rebuilding the Gettext port and still get this error.

Nowhere, you create one yourself. Very very carefully, because these
rules will be applied to *all* incoming local email.
The manpage of procmail(1) explains where Procmail will look for
filtering rules:
If no rcfiles and no -p have been specified on the command line,
procmail will, prior to reading $HOME/.procmailrc, interpret
commands from /usr/local/etc/procmailrc (if present). Care must be
taken when creating /usr/local/etc/procmailrc, because, if
circumstances permit, it will be executed with root privileges
(contrary to the $HOME/.procmailrc file of course).
For example, in your system-wide `procmailrc' file you can use rules
like the following:
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
DEFAULT=$HOME/Mailbox
LOGABSTRACT=no
LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail.log
:0 H
* ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
spam/.
:0 H
* ^Subject: {Spam not delivered}
spam/.
:0 H
* ^Subject: {Possible Spam}
spam/.
The /. suffix of the folder names means they are MH-style mail
folders. You can also use a plain / suffix for Maildir folders,
or no suffix at all for plain Unix mbox-style files.

RE: FreeBSD 6.0 compat with DL320 G4
Let me ask you this: Would you, right now, feel comfortable walking into your server room and yanking out one of the SATA drives? Then shut down the server, install the drive back in, and initiate the rebuild? I have done just that to our production Compaqs with SCSI arrays on the intelligent controller, of course I don't have to down the server to rebuild the array since the controller does it automatically when you put the drive back in. It is one of the most effective sales tools we have, we've sold several servers by doing this. I would also feel comfortable doing it to a server running the 3ware raid card. I don't know I'd feel comfortable with doing this with raidctl but I probably are going to end up testing this out since that's probably what we are going to have to end up doing with ours, at least until Soren reverse engineers the Adaptec metadata format for some future version of FreeBSD. But if I had known about this problem in advance I would never have bought the server.

permissions dilemma
Hello: I have had a problem with installing MySQL 5.0.18 on a FreeBSD v 6.0 installation where everything seems to compile and install correctly but the server crashes immediately on start up with permission to create/write it's .pid file denied. Then the screen saver daemon refuses to start in X windows with a permission denied error. It originally worked fine. But at some point recently the screen saver quit working. When I went to Gnome preferences and tried to set the screen saver I was informed that the screen saver daemon wasn't running. When I tried to have it start I was presented with the permission denied error and to check the $path variable. I tried installing MySQL twice, each time with the same problem. As I understand it, permissions in Unix are part of the file system format. The only possible link between MySQL and the screen saver daemon, possibly, is the mysql user needed to run mysqld. Could I have a corrupted file system in such a way as to cause permission problems? thanks in advance.

BIND inside a jail on FreeBSD 6.0
I'm trying to run BIND inside a jail on FreeBSD 6.0, and I'm
encountering the following problem:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var/named]# /etc/rc.d/named start
mount_devfs: Operation not permitted
/etc/rc.d/named: WARNING: devfs_domount(): Unable to mount devfs on
/var/named/dev
devfs rule: ioctl DEVFSIO_RAPPLY: Operation not permitted
devfs rule: ioctl DEVFSIO_RAPPLY: Operation not permitted
Starting named.
And then it doesn't start...
(I realize that BIND already runs in a chroot'd environment, but I'm
running a second copy of BIND on an existing development server as a
secondary test environment.)
The problem looks like it originates in /etc/rc.d/named:
# Mount a devfs in the chroot directory if needed
#
umount ${named_chrootdir}/dev 2/dev/null
devfs_domount ${named_chrootdir}/dev devfsrules_hide_all
devfs -m ${named_chrootdir}/dev rule apply path null unhide
devfs -m ${named_chrootdir}/dev rule apply path random unhide
I tried mounting the devfs outside the jail to the jail's
/var/named/dev, and then commenting out these lines above, but named
will still not start. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Patrick

mount a devfs into the jails /dev and you should be all set. I am
running bind in a jail under fbsd 6 no problem and I did not have to
do anything special except set up the jail according to man jail

Re: How do you resize an existing partition / slice ?
If you have extra disk space it's fairly straightforward to use dump/ restore and re-partition. I recently found myself desiring to re-slice my disk from a single slice to 5 slices. The basics were to dump the contents of my root, var, and usr partitions to 3 files on another disk. I booted from a distribution CD and installed a new OS on slice 2 with the default partitions. Slice 1 became a 1g partition for DOS if the urge struck me later, Slice 2 was a new OS and slice 3 was for the old/existing OS. I relabeled my 2nd slice and restored the original OS to the various partitions. The only thing I forgot was to re-name the partitions in the /etc/fstab on my old OS. The change in slice number went like this: /dev/ad0s1b noneswapsw 0 0 /dev/ad0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0s1e /tmpufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s1f /usrufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s1d /varufs rw 2 2 Became /dev/ad0s3b noneswapsw 0 0 /dev/ad0s3a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0s3e /tmpufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s3f /usrufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s3d /varufs rw 2 2 In your case if you want just the original slice you would do something like: boot from the live filesystem CD fdisk your drive, label (partition) your drive to the configuration you want newfs each new partition, mount the drive you used for backup mount each of the new partitions of your original disk Restore each of the partitions in turn. Reboot from the original disk. This looks a bit complex but is not too bad at all. This dump/ restore or even tar'ing filesystems is something we used a long time ago to image NeXT systems. It's been quite reliable for me. Your mileage may vary.

gvinum help under 6.0 release
Hi folks, Well I think I'm out of ideas in my experience with gvinum. I need some help. I cannot get gvinum to work for me at all in setting up a raid5 set. This is the first FreeBSD gizmo that I've run into that has proven dangerously unreliable. Each time I use it I get a panic, and one of these tries kept the machine from booting until I did a bsdlabel -B /dev/adxx for each of three drives. (it just did it again) I was surprised that even a dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/adxx would not clean up things. I read somewhere that geom does something preventing overwrite of parts of the device. I'm hoping someone will point out something I'm doing horribly wrong. Synopsis: The drives in question are ad4, ad8 and ad10 all identical disks. One attempt under amd64 6.0 release with this gvinum patch I get panics with i386 6.1-RC1 http://wikitest.freebsd.org/moin.cgi/GvinumMoveRename bsd2# cat vinum_r5.config drive a device /dev/ad4s1d drive b device /dev/ad8s1d drive c device /dev/ad10s1d volume r5vol plex org raid5 15g sd length 5g drive a sd length 5g drive b sd length 5g drive c bsd2# cat sdisk.bsdlabel # for vinum configuraiton # good for /dev/ad4s1 /dev/ad8s1 and /dev/ad10s1 # # # /dev/ad4s1: 8 partitions: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 390721889 16unused0 0 c: 3907219050unused0 0 # raw part, don't edit d: 50g 17vinum bsd2# cat clean.sh dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad4 bs=1k count=100 fdisk -I ad4 bsdlabel -R /dev/ad4s1 sdisk.bsdlabel dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad8 bs=1k count=100 fdisk -I ad8 bsdlabel -R /dev/ad8s1 sdisk.bsdlabel dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad10 bs=1k count=100 fdisk -I ad10 bsdlabel -R /dev/ad10s1 sdisk.bsdlabel The story so far: I recently purchased a Gigabyte GA-8VT880P (VIA PT880 Pro Chipset) and put an Intel Celeron D 336 (Intel EMB64T) processor in it. I suppose by today's standards this is a pretty low end board but it's way fast for what I need. On this system the MB was replacing an older AMD Athalon board. I'm using this system to study an upgrade path to a 4.7 system I'm running. I stupidly decided to install the 6.0-RELEASE amd64. At this point I'm still running the Generic kernel. I say stupidly because the target system is really going to run an i386-RELEASE of 5.x or 6.x. Later I repented, after gvinum frustration, re-sliced and moved my original install onto slice 2. For disk I have to PATA drives that I have been using for some time and 3 Samsung SATA drives. All but one of the drives is attached to the MB controller. I have an addon Buffalo SATA/PATA card (also ~cheap) with a VT6421L chipset in it. I'll comment that one of the SATA connections on the addon board does not seem to function correctly with the amd release. I have not tested it yet with my i386 RC-1 yet. HOWEVER I did run some default iozone tests on all the working SATA and PATA drives so I'm fairly confident that this the working SATA connection really works OK. I also have a SATA backplane. These are called various things but the basic idea is to put three 3.5 drives in two 5.25 HH external slots. This one has hot swap capability (dubious IMHO). For me this is a convenient mechanical place to put disks. Again I'm confident that this is OK since I ran the iozone tests with the drives in this enclosure. What I am trying to do: What I'm studying is how to put together a software raid5 volume and generally I like what I was reading about vinum as a flexible tool to manage space. I'm not terribly concerned with IO performance since I'm still calibrated to 5MB/s sustained throughput and keep wondering why 2kb of code keeps getting repacked into 35MB's of bloat.
