PortSnap problems relocating ports
I've been using portsnap on 6.x systems for some time now with no problems. I decided to move /usr/ports and /usr/src to their own filesystem, /build, to make it easier to backup the important system stuff. I also relocated /var/db/portsnap to /build/db/portsnap. I thought I could edit /etc/portsnap.conf to reflect the new location, and do things as before. I edited WORKDIR and PORTSDIR, and set PORTSDIR (env var) but now I get: # portsnap fetch portsnap: Directory does not exist or is not writable: /var/db/portsnap Looks like it's ignoring portsnap.conf. So I explicitly name it: # portsnap -f /etc/portsnap.conf fetch portsnap: Directory does not exist or is not writable: /var/db/portsnap Same thing. What's up? So instead I specify both on the command line: # portsnap -d /build/db/portsnap -p /build/ports fetch Ahh now it works. Bug? Or am I doing something wrong. Which brings up the next question: What's the best way to relocate the source and ports? I could grab the dull hatchet and sym-link all the defaults to the new locations. But what's the correct method? -Thanks, Wayne ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You should connect your UPS to the machine and have it shut down the system cleanly before your UPS battery is exhausted. At least, if your UPS is smart enough to do so. Now when i reboot my system, in dmesg i m getting warning like ioapic0: Changing APIC ID to 2 ioapic1: Changing APIC ID to 3 ioapic1: WARNING: intbase 32 != expected base 24 ioapic2: Changing APIC ID to 4 ioapic2: WARNING: intbase 64 != expected base 56 ioapic3: Changing APIC ID to 5 ioapic3: WARNING: intbase 96 != expected base 88 ioapic0 Version 2.0 irqs 0-23 on motherboard ioapic1 Version 2.0 irqs 32-55 on motherboard ioapic2 Version 2.0 irqs 64-87 on motherboard ioapic3 Version 2.0 irqs 96-119 on motherboard This is completely unrelated. The APIC, Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller, is what permits newer machines to access more than the 15 IRQ's traditionally available using Intel 8259 PICs. I believe that the default expectation was that each APIC ID would control up to 32 IRQ lines, but the APIC in your Dell is set up to only control 24 IRQs per ID. In theory, you can ignore these warnings, although in practice there still may be interrupt aliasing issues between IRQs which should be separate but are multiples of each other modulo 32 (or 24? in this case?). Again, this is unrelated to having your machine shut down uncleanly because AC line power failed... -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: optimal kernel options for VMWARE guest system
On Tuesday 03 October 2006 12:58, Jeff Dickens wrote: I have some Freebsd systems that are running as VMware guests. I'd like to configure their kernels so as to minimize the overhead on the VMware host system. After reading and partially digesting the white paper on timekeeping in VMware virtual machines (http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vmware_timekeeping.pdf) it appears that I might want to make some changes. Has anyone addressed this issue? I haven't read the white paper (yet; thanks for the link), but I've had good results with recent -STABLE VM's running under ESX server 3. Some thoughts: As I do on most of my installs, I trimmed down GENERIC to include just the drivers I use. In this case that was mpt for the disk and le for the network (although I suspect forcing the VM to present e1000 hardware and then using the em driver would work as well if not better). The VMware tools package that comes with ESX server does a poor job of getting itself to run, but it can be made to work without too much difficulty. Don't use the port, run the included install script to install the files, ignore the custom network driver and compile the memory management module from source (included). If using X.org, use the built-in vmware display driver, and copy the vmmouse driver .o file from the VMware tools dist to the appropriate dir under /usr/X11. Even though the included file is for X.org 6.8, it works fine with 6.9/7.0 (X.org 7.1 should include the vmmouse driver.) Run the VMware tools config script from a non-X terminal (and you can ignore the warning about running it remotely if you're using SSH), so it won't mess with your X display (it doesn't do anything not accomplished above). Then run the rc.d script to start the VMware tools. I haven't noticed any timekeeping issues so far.

Re: how to block rj45 sockets.
Gurus Thank you all for your advices, I would go ahead and look for managed switches :) Belkin was a mistake, Thank you again Marwan Get real switching hardware to replace those Belkins. Cisco and other switches will allow you to enable/disable ports on demand. Do you recommend any good switch product and model number which has port enable.disable feature ? other than cisco, in a good price? Cisco is litl bit expensive specially im talking about 24 switch each, 20 ports!! Don't top-post. There are a number of vendors who sell managed switches. I don't recommend any of them. I think Cisco is worth the extra money. However, most manufactures who sell switches have a line of managed switches.

Even your basic script is making assumptions about the environment. When writing cron scripts always use full-path to your executables and be very aware of when you are globbing. If I recall, cron won't allow globbing (the '*' and '?' characters in paths) in commands unless explicitly enabled, and the only path you get is that defined in your crontab. -- -- Perfection is just a word I use occasionally with mustard. --Atom Powers-- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
