Problem creating DR bootable disk

2006-04-29 Thread Joe Gross
I'm running FreeBSD 6.1-RC #0 with a generic kernel and an Asus A8V
motherboard. I have three IDE disks in my system. Two are on a 3ware
7200 RAID card in a RAID1 configuration. This is currently used to
boot.

The third disk is intended to be a DR disk, with a nightly script to
mount, sync, change twed0 to ad0 in fstab, and unmount. If something
untoward would happen to the main RAID, I could simply reset the boot
list in the BIOS and boot off the DR disk that has an image from early
that morning. This is also a handy way to shuffle the OS onto larger
disks as I upgrade.

I was using this in 4.10 with an Asus a7v133 board and fortunately
never had to utilize the DR capability. It did pass tests for booting
off the new disk and I did several disk upgrade shuffles over the
years.

For 4.10 the script I used to initialize the DR disk and add boot
blocks was:

#!/bin/sh
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad0 bs=1k count=1
fdisk -BI ad0
disklabel -B -w -r ad0s1 auto
disklabel -R -r ad0s1 disklabel.250
disklabel -B -r ad0s1
newfs -U -i 20480 /dev/ad0s1a

This doesn't work with 6.0. When I try to boot off the secondary disk
it gets through the initial loader and then spews what looks like a
repeating register dump. Nothing short of a power cycle will kill
it. I can't say exactly what it says since it's scrolling too fast to
read.

Everything I've read indicates the procedure hasn't changed in
6.0. Any suggestions on where to look or what to try?

Thanks for the help,

Joe

Re: Problem creating DR bootable disk

2006-04-29 Thread Ian Jefferson
I just moved my 6.0 Release from one slice to another.  The procedure is
similar.  You could look at my response to expanding a partition, same
idea.  So relocating a copy of 6.0 (at least) works OK for booting.

What happens when you pull the raid card?

I'm guessing that bios is ignored pretty early in the boot processs.  Your
disks might get renumbered somehow.

Choice of boot manager?

Doesn't the -B option just install the standard boot manager?

Writing to ntfs partitions?

2006-04-29 Thread Daan Vreeken [PA4DAN]
Hi All,

I am trying to help a friend recover her Wind0ws harddisk. I have a backup of 
all files on a UFS2 partition and I have a new and freshly 
partitioned/formatted harddisk with a number of NTFS partitions. man

but I can't seem to write anything to any of the ntfs partitions :(

 No I was just testing it using the mysqld_safe --user=mysql  approach.

It won't work that way. I made the same mistake once myself. You might
have introduced another problem however. The files created in
'/var/db/mysql' [probable have the wrong permissions set on them.

The easiest fix would be to just remove that directory and then start
mysql properly. Usually '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start' should
do the trick. The directories will be build correctly.

At then end of the build of mysql are directions for creating users. You
do that after mysql has been started. If you no longer have that
information, I can supply you with it.

  Our vendor preference is HP, if anyone could share their experience
  with the following products (in regards of network/sata support and
  anything else mentioning):
 
  HP DL140 G2
  HP DL145 G2
  HP DL320 G4
  HP DL360 G4
 
 we tried dl320 g2, g3, g4, dl380 g3 with sata/ciss drives,
 1-4gb ram, P4/XEON, DUAL-XEON with freebsd 5 and 6.
 as of the *bsd's, freebsd has the best support for the
 hp DL*s. sata support is not given for all embedded raid-
 controllers but you can still use raid 1 functionality
 using raidctl. hdd failures can render the system hang for
 3-5sec's on sata devices but after this timeout, everything's
 fine. rebuild is sometimes only possible by os-command, pluggin'
 in the new drive is sometimes not enough ;-)
 
 nw/chipset support is working (at least on all machines we use).
 no performance issues, except you configure as router and you use
 many different irq's for all interfaces (only occurred on a machine
 with 8 interfaces).
 
 thermal zone / ipmi support is not really
 close to the vendors ideas and sometimes produces wrong
 numbers, but if you don't want to set fan-speed or check
 temp. on all mentioned devices, it's fine.
 
 also, system management like (red-power fail, red-fan fail, etc...)
 is not really talking to the os and vice versa, therefore you'll
 have to check for errors like this on your own.
 
 furthermore, bios/fw upgrades can sometimes be really annoying,
 if you don't have usb-boot-support you'd run into troubles because
 hp only delivers them for some specific os's and freebsd is not on
 the list.
 
 btw. if somebody reads this and thinks: hey, bullshit i know a way
 of doing this better and it works fine with my DL, please let me
 know!
 
 best regards and good luck w. the hw :-)

Antivirus to scan files before going onto a Windows machine: clamav?

2006-04-29 Thread Jim Stapleton

Anyone have experience with ClamAV? Good, Bad, Ugly?

Should I use something else, or is the only good alternative
pay/expensive (such as avast)?
Am I better at leaving the antivirus stuff to the Windows machine
(which has McAfee Enterprise)?

Background:
System lags occasionally, and has crashed a few times, and is getting
disk errors (both HDs, one IDE, one SATA started this at the same
time). I suspect the motherboard, but can't be certain, could be Mem
or PSU.

Could also be virus.

So, I want to scan my backed up files while reinstalling Windows on
the other machine, before letting them go back home to play.

ClamAV is great IMHO.

I would use a windows machine to scan the files for virus as not many 
viruses (is that correct spelling?) exist for Unix so exposing that to 
virus stuff would be better than a windows machine doing the same.

Thanks everyone.

Virii would be the correct spelling we biologists use, but viruses is
standard in normal-people-speak, and gets the meaing across.

I doubt I need to scan my entire machine, just my /winbackup/

Any chances?

Re: Kernel Panic

2006-04-29 Thread Steve Douville
 a) You're not using the kernel.debug, and b) it's not a sensible 
 backtrace.  Perhaps it's a side-effect of a) (i.e. you're not running
 kgdb against the same kernel that panicked).


I compiled the kernel using config -g, then rebooted using that kernel. At 
some point, the system crashes, the dump file is written, and when it 
reboots, savecore saves the dump to the crash directory. The I use kgdb with 
this:

RE: FreeBSD 6.0 compat with DL320 G4

2006-04-29 Thread Ted Mittelstaedt

Hi William,

  No.  Soren added a bunch of error checking code in the ata driver
for 6.1 to reject oddball cases and one of the things it does is ignore
the
disks on this particular server if the RAID functionality is turned
on in the BIOS.  However, even though FreeBSD 6.0 sees the disks if the
RAID setup is switched on in BIOS, it does not see the RAID array so
it is pretty much an error to have this BIOS option turned on.

  Until support for the Adaptec metadata format is added, the
RAID firmware in this server is useless.

  But you still can get RAID going on the server now by doing this:

Turn off SATA Raid in the BIOS.  Install a scratch version of
FreeBSD.  Login as root issue the command atacontrol create RAID1 ad4
ad6
Immediately reboot.  Reinstall FreeBSD on disk ar0

This will give you chipset RAID just you can't rebuild the array from
the BIOS.

More importantly, though, is trouble with the Ethernet chipset.

During the install it will ask if you want to configure the
Ethernet interface.  Do not do this.  If you do the system will
immediately panic.

Once the system is up and running, recompile the kernel to use the
fix discussed in PR  kern/94307.  A discussion of how you might
go about implementing this fix is in PR kern/94863

Unfortunately the bge maintainers) are very loath to believe that
they are going to have to make exceptions in their code for all
the different hacked up variants of this Ethernet chipset, but
in reviewing the PR database I suspect this is the case.

Ted

   Our vendor preference is HP, if anyone could share
their experience
   with the following products (in regards of network/sata
support and
   anything else mentioning):
  
   HP DL140 G2
   HP DL145 G2
   HP DL320 G4
   HP DL360 G4
  
  we tried dl320 g2, g3, g4, dl380 g3 with sata/ciss drives,
  1-4gb ram, P4/XEON, DUAL-XEON with freebsd 5 and 6.
  as of the *bsd's, freebsd has the best support for the
  hp DL*s. sata support is not given for all embedded raid-
  controllers but you can still use raid 1 functionality
  using raidctl. hdd failures can render the system hang for
  3-5sec's on sata devices but after this timeout, everything's
  fine. rebuild is sometimes only possible by os-command, pluggin'
  in the new drive is sometimes not enough ;-)
  
  nw/chipset support is working (at least on all machines we use).
  no performance issues, except you configure as router and you use
  many different irq's for all interfaces (only occurred on
a machine
  with 8 interfaces).
  
  thermal zone / ipmi support is not really
  close to the vendors ideas and sometimes produces wrong
  numbers, but if you don't want to set fan-speed or check
  temp. on all mentioned devices, it's fine.
  
  also, system management like (red-power fail, red-fan
fail, etc...)
  is not really talking to the os and vice versa, therefore you'll
  have to check for errors like this on your own.
  
  furthermore, bios/fw upgrades can sometimes be really annoying,
  if you don't have usb-boot-support you'd run into troubles because
  hp only delivers them for some specific os's and freebsd is not on
  the list.
  
  btw. if somebody reads this and thinks: hey, bullshit i know a way
  of doing this better and it works fine with my DL, please let me
  know!
  
  best regards and good luck w. the hw :-)

Hi Ted,

Thanks for the information regarding the Ethernet chipset, does the
same thing happen if you configure the interface via rc.conf/ifconfig
once the system is up and running?

If the ethernet chipset support at the moment is flakey then I might
have to look at a different vender, ethernet being one of the most
important devices I need working for what I'm after! :(

  also, system management like (red-power fail, red-fan
fail, etc...)
  is not really talking to the os and vice versa, therefore you'll
  have to check for errors like this on your own.
  
  furthermore, bios/fw upgrades can sometimes be really annoying,

 Actually I was reading up on correct vs. common plurals after a

 virus is NOT correct.  See:
 
 http://linuxmafia.com/~rick/faq/plural-of-virus.html
 http://dictionary.reference.com/help/faq/language/g63.html

I think virus is a second declension masculine noun, so its nominative
plural would be 'viri', but a plural form is not known from the extant
cannon of Classical Latin.  A complication would be that 'viri' is
already known as the nominative plural of 'vir' (man), also of the
second declension (I believe - my Latin was never up to much anyway, and
what with no Cardinals or Popes to practise conversational Latin, I have
forgotten most of it!).  Which is why the other form 'virii' is
occasionally seen, but again without precedent from Classical Latin, and
with no attestation in any dictionary.

This article at Wikipedia is pretty informative, if you like that kind
of thing!

no KDK, you were not incorrect.  in fact, my answer should have included your

ServerTokens specifies the verbosity, while ServerSignature allows it on, or

Are you starting MySQL with the script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ upon
bootup?


Boy that was fast, I just posted this message a moment ago...
No I was just testing it using the mysqld_safe --user=mysql  
approach.



It won't work that way.


Sorry, yes it does work that way. I've done this on another
machine running the same version of FreeBSD and the instruction
specifically specify to start the daemon this way to test the install.
(I installed from source on both machines using the same source
tarball).
Every time I start this machine I start MySQL manually this way.
(Since this is a production server, it is up continuously and
it doesn't have Xwindows installed)

 I made the same mistake once myself. You might
have introduced another problem however. The files created in
'/var/db/mysql' [probable have the wrong permissions set on them.

This is a possibility, I'll check it out.


The easiest fix would be to just remove that directory and then start
mysql properly. Usually '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start' should
do the trick. The directories will be build correctly.

At then end of the build of mysql are directions for creating users. 
You

do that after mysql has been started.

not according to the instruction in the INSTALL-SOURCE.

 If you no longer have that
information, I can supply you with it.

I'm confused as to the class of user to assign mysql to.
It shouldn't be a user that anyone can login as, nor have
it's own home dir or login shell should it? adduser asks
and expects answers to all these questions. I don't recall
what I did on the machine that is running mysql. I guess
I could look at the password file on that machine to get
some idea.
Since the machine that won't start MySQL also has
XWindows intalled, the kdm login prompt list mysql
as a user that can log into a windowing session.
That shouldn't be necessary at all. That is why I
think the issue with the screen saver daemon
is connected to this.

Can't myself shed any light, and I see that others are answering your
question with ntfs info.

However, if all else fails, and depending on the size of the partitions
in question, you might be able to format one of them as fat32, copy the
files over, then boot into Windows and use the convert command to ntfs.

C:\Documents and Settings\User1convert /?
Converts FAT volumes to NTFS.

CONVERT volume /FS:NTFS [/V]

  volume  Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon),
  mount point, or volume name.
  /FS:NTFSSpecifies that the volume to be converted to NTFS.
  /V  Specifies that Convert should be run in verbose mode.

On several occasions, ZoneAlarm has caught a virus that ClamAV missed
during mail scanning. I am not sure why though. From what I could gather,
the ClamAV signatures had not caught up to the new virus. I reload the
Clamav signatures every 4 hours. The ZoneAlarm signatures are done once
a day, however.

Just my 2¢.

RE: FreeBSD 6.0 compat with DL320 G4

No, what happens if you configure it via rc.conf is the server
stays up for about a minute then panics, rather than panicing
immediately.

Perhaps if you e-mailed the bge maintainer and referenced the
PRs on the Ethernet, they might be willing to fix the driver.
Otherwise I'm going to look at it next week since I have one
of these servers and I can't return it. :-(  Another possibility
is installing another ethernet card in the server's expansion
slot.

Hi Ted,

Thanks for the information regarding the Ethernet chipset, does the
same thing happen if you configure the interface via rc.conf/ifconfig
once the system is up and running?

If the ethernet chipset support at the moment is flakey then I might
have to look at a different vender, ethernet being one of the most

 Hi William,

   No.  Soren added a bunch of error checking code in the ata driver
 for 6.1 to reject oddball cases and one of the things it does
is ignore
 the
 disks on this particular server if the RAID functionality is turned
 on in the BIOS.  However, even though FreeBSD 6.0 sees the
disks if the
 RAID setup is switched on in BIOS, it does not see the RAID array so
 it is pretty much an error to have this BIOS option turned on.

   Until support for the Adaptec metadata format is added, the
 RAID firmware in this server is useless.

   But you still can get RAID going on the server now by doing this:

 Turn off SATA Raid in the BIOS.  Install a scratch version of
 FreeBSD.  Login as root issue the command atacontrol create RAID1 ad4
 ad6
 Immediately reboot.  Reinstall FreeBSD on disk ar0

 This will give you chipset RAID just you can't rebuild the array from
 the BIOS.

 More importantly, though, is trouble with the Ethernet chipset.

 During the install it will ask if you want to configure the
 Ethernet interface.  Do not do this.  If you do the system will

Hi,

As you don't mention it explicitly, did you run mysql_install_db

yeswell come to think of it I only ran mysql_install_db without 
the --user part

I believe. I'll redo it an see what happens.
thanks
I know the first time I installed MySQL I neglected to do so.  As 
well, do you also

have a mysql user and a mysql group defined?
yes, but I'm confused, why would the mysql user need a shell and login 
password.
No password means that any one could log into the system as the mysql 
user

but how would mysqld switch to the mysql user if it has a password.
I did this on another machine running the same version of FreeBSD and 
was successful.
So far MySQL runs fine on it. I don't recall exactly what I did 
differently.
Would this have a bearing on the screen saver daemon? Or is that 
another issue?

MySQL user does not need and should not have a login shell.
the entry in the password and group file should be set-up
automatically for you when you install MySQL.

The method I used to install MySQL was to use the ports
system via portupgrade.  Then run mysql_install_db --user=mysql
This sets a lot of things up for you.

As I believe another poster has mentioned you will want to delete
everything under /var/db/mysql/

Also do a chown mysql:mysql /var/db/mysql

Read the chapters in the MySQL manual regarding post-install
tasks under UNIX and securing the initial MySQL accounts.

Hope this helps,

FreeBSD 6.1-RC Sigmatel 9221 audio driver

2006-04-29 Thread Vlad GURDIGA

Hello,

I've changed my hardware lately and cannot find the driver for sound
card. My motherboard is an Intel D955XBK with on board Sigmatel 9221
audio. On Windows it plays, so, the hardware part is fine.

Also cannot find the driver for my new video card: PCI Express x16
ASUS ATI RADEON X550 GE. The standard VESA driver is ok for me, by I'm
just wondering if there is a driver available, so I could test 3D
accelaration on FreeBSD.

I'm running an up-to-date FreeBSD 6.1-RC. Any advice or a link is appreciated.

 Sorry, yes it does work that way. I've done this on another

 (I installed from source on both machines using the same source

 Every time I start this machine I start MySQL manually this way.

 It shouldn't be a user that anyone can login as, nor have
 it's own home dir or login shell should it? adduser asks
 and expects answers to all these questions. I don't recall
 what I did on the machine that is running mysql. I guess
 I could look at the password file on that machine to get
 some idea.
 Since the machine that won't start MySQL also has
 XWindows intalled, the kdm login prompt list mysql
 as a user that can log into a windowing session.
 That shouldn't be necessary at all. That is why I
 think the issue with the screen saver daemon
 is connected to this.

Just out of curiosity, are you installing MySQL from the ports system? I
am just wondering because I have never had to take any extraneous steps
to get MySQL up and running. After installing from ports, I would just
run the script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and things would work fine.
Obviously, I had to place the mysql_enable=YES notation in
/etc/rc.conf prior to starting MySQL. After that I would just create the
passwords, etc.

I guess there are more than one way to skin a cat.

While the kernels are not all that similar there already is Darwin on  
Intel, lots of former key FreeBSD talent now works for Apple, and  
then without any fanfare MacOS X is found to support several hardware  
items which have been near and dear to FreeBSD in the past such as  
the Intel Etherexpress Pro NIC. Simply pulled a PCI NIC from my  
FreeBSD PC and dropped it right into my G4 PowerMac. Same holds true  
for several other commodity NICs.


Mostly the same for a $10 5-port NEC chipset USB2 card. I can wake  
from sleep thru the Intel Etherexpress NIC but can not wake from  
sleep with the NEC USB2. That's not necessarily a bad thing, in fact  
now that I know it, its a feature. Plugged printers into the NEC and  
now if the Mac is sleeping and I see the printer is still on I can  
turn the printer off without waking the Mac. Previously any activity  
on the USB bus would wake the Mac.

I use ClamAV to scan all incoming e-mail on my mailserver with very good

I frequently use AVG antivirus as well.  Their free edition is free to

in some ways superior to the other Windows AV products I've used, most

I have enabled the Earthlink AV blocker. I run SpamAssassin here with

Background:
System lags occasionally, and has crashed a few times, and is getting

Personally, I use ZoneAlarm Suite on my WinXP machines. I have several
networked together with my FreeBSD machine.

On several occasions, ZoneAlarm has caught a virus that ClamAV missed
during mail scanning. I am not sure why though. From what I could gather,
the ClamAV signatures had not caught up to the new virus. I reload the
Clamav signatures every 4 hours. The ZoneAlarm signatures are done once
a day, however.


Different tools have different update cycles, different crews working
on them, and your machine has different automatic updates for the various
AV tools. That's why I like my defense in depth. So far nothing has
triggered the final F-Secure stage. But that's mainly for the web
browsing viruses anyway. The first line of defense is Earthlink's virus
blocker. So far it appears that ClamAV, the second line of defense, has
mostly caught scam rather than virus problems. I suppose the SpamAssassin
I run is another half a level of defense. It's not really an AV tool.
But an awful lot of malware emails look like spam so they trigger the
SpamAssassin stage for many people. I figure it's almost time to get
to the Trend site and run their free online scan to get a solid fourth
opinion about the sanctity of my machine here.

If it does then something in your mirror tools is the issue.
If it doesn't then it's a bootstrap problem.

I'm not a bootstrap expert but I was thinking that grub seems pretty

I could look at the password file on that machine to get
some idea.
Since the machine that won't start MySQL also has
XWindows intalled, the kdm login prompt list mysql
as a user that can log into a windowing session.
That shouldn't be necessary at all. That is why I
think the issue with the screen saver daemon
is connected to this.


Just out of curiosity, are you installing MySQL from the ports system? 
I

am just wondering because I have never had to take any extraneous steps
to get MySQL up and running. After installing from ports, I would just
run the script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and things would work fine.
Obviously, I had to place the mysql_enable=YES notation in
/etc/rc.conf prior to starting MySQL. After that I would just create 
the

passwords, etc.

No, I installed it from a source tarball following the INSTALL-SOURCE
instructions, the O'Reilly book, MySQL Reference Manual, and 
./configure --help

I did this on two machines with AMD64 processors and FreeBSD v6.0 from
a packaged cd set. On both machines, I installed from the same source 
tarball
One has been successful with MySQL and the other not. I have installed 
several other
non trivial software packages from the same source tarballs on both 
machines
and they all went through with glitches that I was able to correct or 
work around.

how to sync palm under FreeBSD?

2006-04-29 Thread snnn

my OS version is FreeBSD6.0 p7
my palm is m125

I've installed jpilot,coldsync... from ports.
However,jpilot said cannot find the device /dev/pilot

I have not compiled the kernel with ucom and uvisor.
So I loaded them by 'kldload'.
then put the following lines under 'usbd.conf'.

device Palm Handheld
devname ucom[0-9]+
vendor  0x0830
product 0x0040
release 0x0100
attach ln -fs /dev/ucom0 /dev/pilot; chmod 666 /dev/ucom0

but there is already an entry about plam,
# This entry starts the ColdSync tool in daemon mode. Make sure you have 
an up
# to date /usr/local/etc/palms. We override the 'listen' settings for 
port and

# type in /usr/local/etc/coldsync.conf.
device Handspring Visor
   devname ugen[0-9]+
   vendor  0x082d
   product 0x0100
   release 0x0100
   attach /usr/local/bin/coldsync -md -p /dev/${DEVNAME} -t usb

and, when I push sync under plam,I'll got these errors from dmesg
ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2
ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2
ucom0: init failed, STALLED
device_attach: ucom0 attach returned 6

why?
thanks.

This a COMPAQ PROLIANT DL380 to be precise .



Not sure if the 4200 uses ida or ciss, this is what I use for ida:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-scsi/2005-September/002024.html
The thread has some more info on the ida.

Also found this, but did not use or test:

I'm adding LDAP support to my Sendmail configuration.  I couldn't seem
to find the appropriate m4 file in which to declare my APPENDDEF

correct way to do this for FreeBSD 6-STABLE?



That would be `/etc/make.conf'.

  


No, you probably want something similar to the way SASL2 support is
compiled into the base-system version of Sendmail.  In my `make.conf'
I have the following:

SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2
SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=   -L/usr/local/lib
SENDMAIL_LDADD= -lsasl2

While adding stuff to these variables please keep in mind that GCC on
FreeBSD has a major difference from the default GCC behavior: it does *not*
add /usr/local/include to the default include path or /usr/local/lib to the
default library search path.  So you will have to add them yourself, as
shown above.

Hi,

Thank you Giorgos, this is the right direction.
Your example was most fortuitous, maybe even
prescient. ;)

LDAP support in Sendmail requires that SASL
support also be built in.


My /etc/make.conf now contains

SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2 -DLDAPMAP
SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=   -L/usr/local/lib
SENDMAIL_LDADD= -lsasl2 -lldap -llber


sendmail -d0.1 -bt now includes LDAPMAP and USE_LDAP_INIT

Thanks for your help.

Respectfully,

Duane Whitty
