probleme avec mysql

2006-12-05 Thread sebcouf
Hi
I've just instal apache2 server and php4 on a freebsd 6.1.
I want to instal mysql server 4.1 or 5 (i tryed both) and when i want to start 
this deamon, it isn't started because when i want to change the password root, 
there is a message say that may be the service is not started or may be there 
is no mysql.sock in /tmp.
Thanks to help me if you have a solution.
Sorry for my english (i m french lol)

Bonjour
Je viens d'installer un serveur apache2 ainsi que php4 sur la freebsd 6.1.
J'ai voulu installer mysql server 4.1 ou 5 (j'ai essayé les deux), et je lance 
la commande pour demarer, et je pense qu'il ne demarre pas car quant je veu 
mettre un mot de passe root, il me renvoi une erreur en me disant que le 
serveur n'est peut etre pas demmarré ou bien que mysql.sock n'est pas present 
dans /tmp.
Vous pourriez peut etre apporter un eclairsissement a mon probleme, car je 
n'arrive pas a voir d'ou vien le probleme.
Je vous remercie par avance
Sebastien

How can I repartition my drive?

2006-12-05 Thread Abdullah Al-Marrie

Hello,

How can I repartition my drive? I already have the hd dedicated for
FreeBSD and 6.2-RC1 is installed.

Is there away to make /var ..etc without reinstalling the OS?

Thank you,

Re: /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/eel linker error

2006-12-05 Thread Nagy László Zsolt



20061014:
 AFFECTS: All GTK+2 and GNOME users
 AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 GNOME has been updated to 2.16. All GTK+2 and GNOME components have
 been moved from X11BASE (/usr/X11R6) to LOCALBASE (/usr/local). To
 upgrade your GNOME desktop or/and other applications you will need
 to use either sysutils/portupgrade or sysutils/portmaster. To use
 portmaster, make sure you have least 1.9 version to have the
 upgrade succeed.

Portupgrade users:
 pkgdb -Ff
 portupgrade -rf pkg-config\*

I did this, but I still get the same error.
I thought this was a problem with my ports tree, but it is not the case. 
I did not want to reinstall everything again. Fortunately, I had another 
FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE machine. I did exactly the same things there ( 
portsnap fetch ; portsnap update; pkdb -Ff ; portupgrade -rf 
pkg-config\* ) and I got the same problem again. I cannot install ee1 
because of the same linker error. I also tried this:


messias# portupgrade -a
Stale dependency: gail-1.9.3 -- gnome2-fifth-toe-2.12.3 -- manually run 
'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force.

messias# pkgdb -F
---  Checking the package registry database
messias#

Although the dependency error was different on the other machine, it is 
the same kind. I think I did everything right, and now I have two 
machines where I cannot move forward. Can this be a bug in portupgrade, 
or FreeBSD? How it is possible that portupgrade thinks there is a stale 
dependency, but pkgdb cannot find it?


Regards,

  Laszlo

I don't think it makes much sense, no. Zope is python-based and unless 
you're building products that rely on native libraries, what you 
describe doesn't sound like an accurate diagnosis. It's more likely 
(this is a stab in the dark) that you're running a script to regerate 
.pyc files; these are precompiled python bytecode files that are built 
from the corresponding .py files.

I don't have my references in front of me, but I ran into an error when 
I tried to runzope that I didn't understand, so I yahoo'd it and 
discovered that my c libraries were corrupted. It was recommended I run 
a certain command to clean them up. I ran that command and everything 
went smoothly. I repeated this process a few times. So yes, I'm sure 
that's what I did.

When you have a chance, it'd be nice to get a detailed error report
(including the command you were running to clean up the libraries).

I just realized that this is a gnome 2.12 dependency. It should not be 
there at all (the new ports tree is using gnome 2.16).

But I cannot remove this dependency. :-(

I also tried to remove gail, but then I got this:

I also tried pkgdb -Ff and portsdb -Uu, but the problem remains the

FreeBSD Port Question

2006-12-05 Thread VeeJay

Hi guys

How can one find the location of the URL/FTP site where FreeBSD 6.1 fetches
the Source of a Distribution for example, mysql50???

I am trying to compile and install mysql50 at my freebsd61 web server from
source. I can install it from the ports easily and have done twice.
(location: /usr/ports/databases/mysql50-server/)

But I want to change the location of installation for chroot reason and
wanna configure with some paraments before compilation too. So, I have tried
A LOT to find the source distribution of mysql-50 for freebsd6x from
dev.mysql.com website or other mirros but with NO luck.
They only have the binary distribution of mysql50 for FreeBSD 6x.

My question is that how can I find the location of the site/ftp where from
FreeBSD61 fetches? I have tried to go through the Makefile. But since I am
a novice, I cannot understand a bit what it says?

a snipt from Makefile:

PORTNAME?=  mysql
PORTVERSION=5.0.2
PORTREVISION?=  0
CATEGORIES= databases
MASTER_SITES=   ${MASTER_SITE_MYSQL}
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= MySQL-5.0
PKGNAMESUFFIX?= -server
DISTNAME=   ${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}-alpha

Re: Configuring DNS (BIND) in isolation

2006-12-05 Thread Matthew Seaman
Andrew Falanga wrote:


 You're on the right track.  Yes, you'ld need a zone file for the root of
 your DNS -- if it's all served from one machine then that would replace
 the
 'hint' zone and named.root stuff in the example named.conf

 The zone file for '.' would contain an SOA record and then delegation for
 whatever forward and reverse domains you want to use.  Eg. supposing you
 want to use the TLD 'in.isolation' with IP numbers from 192.168.0.0/24
 then you'ld need something like:

 ;
 ; Root of the private domain name system
 ;
 $TTL 604800; 1 week

 @ IN  SOA ns0.in.isolation.
 hostmaster.in.isolation. (
   2006120100 ;  Serial
   1800   ;  Refresh (30min)
   900;  Retry (15min)
   604800 ;  Expire (1week)
   86400 );  Minimum (1day)
 in.isolation.IN  NS ns0.in.isolation.
 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa.  IN  NS ns0.in.isolation.
 ns0.in.isolation.IN  A 192.168.0.1   ; Glue
 ;
 ; That's All Folks!
 ;

 
 Ok, here's the problems I've got so far.  I've made the following files,
 
 isolated.zone, isolated.rev, localhost.rev, localhost-v6.rev and root.zone
 
 The isolated.* files are for the forward addresses and the reverse pointers
 for 192.168.0.0/24 that I've set up.  The root.zone file contains, what I
 thought should be, for the . zone.  (Matthew, from your message above, I
 wasn't clear if all I'd need is what you have above, or that it was implied
 that I'd need a SOA for the . zone as well.  So, I made one.)

The above *is* for the root zone.   


 Now, I'm getting a few errors.  Sometimes it seems that named can't find
 the
 files that I told it to look for in named.conf.  I used the original
 named.conf file as a reference, and just filled in the blanks as it were,
 for my zones.
 
 Also, named keeps complaining about rndc.key files missing.  How do I
 generate these key files?  I didn't find anything from 'man rndc'?

Use rndc-confgen and follow the instructions written in the file
it outputs about editing named.conf.  You won't need a separate
rndc.key file.

Hi Sebastien,

How are you trying to start mysql? Have you tried putting:

mysql_enable=YES

in /etc/rc.conf and rebooting? When you install mysql, it installs it
but doesn't start it IIRC.

When you have a chance, it'd be nice to get a detailed error report
(including the command you were running to clean up the libraries).
 


I get this error when I try to runzope:

ImportError: No module named cPersistence

I yahoo'd this page:

http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/zope-List/1985451

which told me about the problem with my corrupted files (c extensions) and said 
I needed to recompile them with this command:

python setup.py build_ext -if

which takes care of that problem. What is interesting is that I do not have 
this problem if I compile from port! Now, all I'm doing is the 
configure-make-make install-make instance dance, which is a no-brainer.

Promise PDC20371 SATA150 controller - machine hangs

2006-12-05 Thread Michael Dosser

Hello,

I have upgraded my FreeBSD-5.3-p37 based machine to FreeBSD-6.1-p10 last 
Thursday. The machine is a PIV 3,2 Ghz with 2 Gig RAM with a Promise 
PDC20371 SATA150 controller, on which two disks (both are Seagate 
ST3200822AS 3.01) are attached and configured as RAID-1 (from dmesg):


ar0: 190782MB Promise Fasttrak RAID1 status: READY
ar0: disk0 READY (master) using ad6 at ata3-master
ar0: disk1 READY (mirror) using ad4 at ata2-master

# atacontrol status ar0
ar0: ATA RAID1 subdisks: ad6 ad4 status: READY

This machine gets backed up by another machine using amanda and gtar. 
Both gtar and amanda are the latest from the ports tree as of Saturday 
last week both on the backup server as on the client (the machine I'm 
talking about).


The problem: The machine hangs when the backup runs. The machine is in a 
datacenter and has a serial console attached. Thanks to a remote access 
card I was able to reboot the machine and put it into single user in 
order to fsck -f -y the single disks (i.e. ad4s1x and ad6s1x, where x 
are the appropriate slice names). I then started the backup again and 
all went well. Unfortunately this scenario happened twice (Saturday 
morning and today morning).


I have checked the two disk with smartctl, no errors are logged. syslogd 
mentioned nothing in the logs too. The machine has run for 1,5 years 
with FreeBSD-5.3-RELEASE-pxx. I guess something must have changed in the 
ata driver or the controller goes its way to hell anyway.


Is this a known problem with this controller on FreeBSD-6.1? How can I 
provide more information (shall I compile in DDB, KDB, KDB_UNATTENDED)?


Thanks,
Mic

PS: I hope this is the right mailing list for this question. Else: 
please advise the proper one :)

First read /usr/src/UPDATING.

Really.

No, really.  I mean read it :)

And, since no one expects you to really, really read it, I'll give you some
shortcuts.

First, look for the word KERNCONF in /usr/src/UPDATING

Read all of the language around every occurence of that word (KERNCONF).

Then, when you are ready, do this:

make buildkernel KERNCONF=SMP
make installkernel KERNCONF=SMP

Then reboot.

Note here that I'm giving you the shortest possible route, which may be
problematic for you.  You really must become familiar with 
/usr/src/UPDATING.


Anyway, after the reboot, you should type:

cat /var/log/messages | grep -i launch

if you see the terms CPU1 Launched! then you've got yourself an SMP 
kernel.


Good Luck!

 Okay, please walk me through this one, since I can't afford to screw it up.
The server is on the other side of
 the planet, so reinstalling from an iso is impractical. How do I fetch the

Hi Rachel,

I'm not 100% sure but I think you need to login to a FreeBSD FTP mirror,
download a recent GCC binary from the installation files and put it in place of
the old one. Maybe someone can confirm?

in use vs no driver available ... several have tried to figure out 
something, but nobody, as of yet, has been able to do so :(

SOLVED : nfs issue after client crash

2006-12-05 Thread Thierry Lacoste
Somebody gave me the answer to my question
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2006-November/135179.html
I'm posting it in case somebody hits a similar problem.

I have a bunch of Ubuntu clients which mount /home at boot time from a
FreeBSD 6.1 NFS server.

When a client crashes it won't mount /home at boot.
In that case, trying to mount manually gives can not read super bloc.

The client still appears in the showmountoutput of the server.

Sometimes /home will be mounted after the second reboot but sometimes
not even after several reboots (I haven't been able to find a regular 
pattern here).
If I restart the NFS server or just wait long enough (e.g. one day) 
everything is OK.

By default the client is using NFS/TCP and when it crashes it does not
release the TCP connection.
It appears that the server then refuses to establish a second connection.

On the linux clients I'm now using mount -o udp /home in my rc.local
and everything seems fine.

Regards,
Thierry.

 When you have a chance, it'd be nice to get a detailed error

 I yahoo'd this page:

 not have this problem if I compile from port! Now, all I'm doing is
 the configure-make-make install-make instance dance, which is a

That rebuilds the python C library interface stuff I believe, but 
doesn't have anything at all to do with the system C compiler.  There 
is nothing wrong with your system C compiler.

If you look at the Zope port there are a bunch of FreeBSD-specific 
patches and some additional magic is performed after the build that 
would also be FreeBSD-centric.  I suspect your problems perhaps stem 
from the fact that installing Zope by hand doesn't give you these 
patches.

all of the various release versions of various *BSDs.  Having used
FreeBSD since 2.2, I have a fair idea which of those numbers are likely
not FreeBSD versions, and even an inkling of which OS some of the others
might be, but many mightn't know which were apples and which oranges. 

Perhaps they'd be more useful summarised by OS, or at least prefaced

 First read /usr/src/UPDATING.
 
 Really.
 
 No, really.  I mean read it :)
 
 And, since no one expects you to really, really read it, I'll give you
  some shortcuts.
 
 First, look for the word KERNCONF in /usr/src/UPDATING
 
 Read all of the language around every occurence of that word (KERNCONF).
 
 Then, when you are ready, do this:
 
 make buildkernel KERNCONF=SMP
 make installkernel KERNCONF=SMP
 
 Then reboot.
 
 Note here that I'm giving you the shortest possible route, which may be
 problematic for you.  You really must become familiar with
 /usr/src/UPDATING.
 
 Anyway, after the reboot, you should type:
 
 cat /var/log/messages | grep -i launch
 
 if you see the terms CPU1 Launched! then you've got yourself an SMP
 kernel.
 
 Good Luck!

Marwan,

Please don't top post because

follow
to
hard
it's

I'm guessing here:  The acpi messages such as

 acpi_bus_number: can't get _ADR
 acpi_perf0: failed in PERF_STATUS attach

may be appearing because these features are not yet fully supported.

Check on man acpi to learn how to selectively disable acpi functions.

The read is rather short, and you may ultimately decide that it's better left 
alone. As long as these errors don't repeat then it is likely the selected 
features are simply disabled by the kernel (or not loaded, or however acpi 
works :)

Regarding the acpi errors AND the usb error:  Do you detect any diminished 
performance?  Are you unable to mount drives and/or other devices?

You're barking up the wrong tree.  There's nothing at all wrong with 
your system compiler.  See your other thread about your problems with 
Zope.  You've mistaken using python to repair the python libraries 
that interface with the C libraries with using gcc to fix something.  
You admit that you were able to successfully compile and install Zope 
from the ports system, which uses the system C compiler.  If you 
don't believe me try installing some other ports, or even cd /usr/src 
 make buildworld. (which won't actually touch anything, it's 
completely safe to do)  If you run into compiler issues doing that 
*THEN* you can start to deal with a corrupted C compiler.  Until then 
I think you'd be money ahead to look at the FreeBSD-specific patches 
that are applied during the Zope build from the port, and the 
additional magic that is done in the port's Makefile.  I suspect the 
differences between the port and your hand installation are the root 
of your problem.

Re: Looking for a cookbook on Oracle clients...

2006-12-05 Thread David Robillard

I have a task that requires I extract a data set from a MySQL server, and push 
it on to an Oracle (9i) server.


Hi Brian,

If you're familiar with perl (or have a perl programmer handy) you can
choose from a whole bunch of perl modules which interact with MySQL
and Oracle databases.

For example, in the FreeBSD ports tree you will find
databases/p5-DBD-Oracle and databases/p5-DBD-mysql ports.

Once you have both of these, it should be quite easy to write your
perl script to pump data from the MySQL database with
databases/p5-DBD-mysql port, perform the data manipulation your
business requires and the dump the results into the Oracle instance
with databases/p5-DBD-Oracle.

Now, if your objective is to migrate all of your data from MySQL into
Oracle, then you can check out the Oracle Migration Workbench. More
info on this at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/index.html

Good luck,

David

umass external usb floppy devices

2006-12-05 Thread Old Ranger

Greetings to all this morning,
After several days of trying, reading, tweaking, and cursing..
I read up on supported umass usb devices supported by FreeBSD 6.1.
The only umass usb external floppy drive I see in that list is a 
Panasonic external floppy.

I have a TEAC FD-05PUB USB device.

I can mount this device using mount_msdosfs /dev/da0 /mnt  no problem.

I can cd to this device, and ls and read the contents thereof.

However, whenever I try to write to this device, I get device busy, 
among other messages which I cannot reproduce at the moment, because 
this is a dual boot machine and I'm on the other side of the HDD now.


Does anyone know if there is a tweak, or a hack to get around this write 
problem with TEAC umass usb floppy drives?


Thanks in advance.

help! directories changed into regular files! :(

2006-12-05 Thread martijn
Hi,

I remembered thinking, should i backup the directory tree before this chang? 
nah ;-)

i used sed in a directory with subdirs, and it changed all directories into 
normal files :(

the exact command:

sed -i -e s/'pm_properties\([^a-z]\)/#__properties\1/g' *

after which i discovered it had name the directories name-e and had turned
into regular files. no warnings whatsoever. (btw, yes i know that it should
have been -i.orig)

weird thing is, i can't reproduce the bug, and the command history wasn't big
enough to figure out what was so special about this particular situation... sed
sais 'in-place editing only works for regular files' but this time it didn't

my question though: is there _any_ way to flip the bit that marks the file
being a directory? it would really be helpful to me because i've just lost a
lot of work.

any ideas?

bye
Martijn.

Where /dev/ad0 is the source disk and /dev/ad2 is the destination disk. 
Make sure nothing is mounted. This process takes place at sector level,

dump. no need to worry about the extra space, etc after the fact

Re: Booting a Freebsd HD on a windows box?

 Hi all.  I'm looking to merge two of my machines in my home office

 from the Freebsd machine over to the windows machine and add something to 
 the boot.ini file to make it bootable from the windows boot prompt, or do I 
 have to do something else?  Or can I just mirror the HD from the BSD box 
 into an image file, then just mount and boot that image using Vmware and 
 run it as a virtual machine?  I'm trying to find the simplest, most hassle 
 free way to merge the two machines without much tinkering with the existing 
 installs.  Any suggestions is welcome.  I only picked merging the bsd box 
 into the windows machine because the windows machine has the better 
 hardware.

Well, probably almost.
That will be making a dual-boot machine.  I have several in dual boot.
The only odd thing is doing it by combining two already made disks
rather than doing it from scratch.

First, you probably want the MS system to be in first disk the system
recognizes.   It is happier that way.

You will have to rewrite the MBR on that first disk and put the 
FreeBSD MBR there.   It will be able to boot either the MS or the FreeBSD
system, but the MS MBR will not.

You should be able to rewrite the MBR any time
You may need to do that from a bootable fixit CD.

NOTE:  that both disks will need to have the FreeBSD MBR, but maybe
  one currently running FreeBSD already has it.   It would hurt
  to make sure as it is possible to have installed a FreeBSD only
  system without the MBR.

You will probably also have to modify the fstab and possibly some other
configuration files on the FreeBSD disk to reflect different addresses.
Since the disk will then look like  ad1 or da1  instead of  ad0 or da0.
(Of course ad0-ad1 for IDE type disk or da0-da1 for SCSI type)

You would want to modify the /etc/fstab file just before the very last
time taking it down before making the change.

Otherwise, it should work OK.

Now, here is another thing to consider.   Now would be an excellent 
time to move to a more up-to-date version of FreeBSD.  Try installing 6.1 
or waiting a few days and installing 6.2 when it comes out.

Have fun, Good luck,

jerry

Hi everyone,

First and foremost, excuse the cross post for those that are on the both

Due to disk space issues I recently  created a symlink for /var/log/exim in

Could the creation of the symlink be related to what my spamstats.pl is now
producing?

As you can see its still reading from /var/log/maillog but data is not

Re: How can I repartition my drive?

 Hello,
 
 How can I repartition my drive? I already have the hd dedicated for
 FreeBSD and 6.2-RC1 is installed.
 
 Is there away to make /var ..etc without reinstalling the OS?

Well, I don't know what you mean by making /var ..etc, but there
are things to do if you need to move some things to shift them
to where there is more space.   For this you do not repartition,
but just move certain directory trees and then make symbolic links.

Here is an example.   Let's say you have a typical setup with one
large /home file system that has lots of spare space, but you have
begun to fill /var because you have lots of stuff in /var/log and /var/spool.
So, you want to move the contents of /var/log and /var/spool in to
the /home space where they have room to grow.   Do something like this:

(While logged in as root - or booted to single user [preferred])
  cd /var/log 
  tar cvpf /home/log.tar *
  cd /var/spool
  tar cvpf /home/spool.tar *
  cd /home
  mkdir var.log
  mkdir var.spool
  cd var.log
  tar xvf ../log.tar
  cd ../var.spool
  tar xvf ../spool.tar
  cd /var
  mv log log-old
  ln -s /home/var.log log
  mv spool spool-old
  ln -s /home/var.spool spool

Now, just check things out to make sure it is all OK.
  cd /var/log
  pwd (should display /home/var.log)
  ls  (should have the right stuff for log in it)
  cd /var/spool  
  pwd (should display /home/var.spool)
  ls  (should have the right stuff for spool in it)

If all is well, clean up.
  cd /var
  rm -rf log-old
  rm -fr spool-old
  cd /home
  rm log.tar
  rm spool.tar

That will leave space in /var and give log and spool to work
The same type of thing can be done with other directories in overloaded
file systems if you have room for them elsewhere.  Just don't do it for
some things like /etc or /sbin that need to stay in root.

There is something called growfs, but it is only useful if you have
empty unallocated space right next to the partition you want to expand.
That is rarely the case.   Most people put one partition right after
the other without leaving wasted space in between.

There are also some other utilities that claim to be able to mush FreeBSD 
(as well as other types) partitions around, but I have not heard much about 
them.   Most disk partition management utilities actually work on Microsoft 
partitions which are what FreeBSD calls slices.   They do not know anything
about FreeBSD partitions - which are actually subdivisions of slices.

So, if you do not have the room to do the move and symlink process I
describe above, then, you are probably needing to look at buying larger
disk.

Happy disk management,

jerry

It has to be that way; whoever planned out the installation for Windows

the Windows system disk. Unfortunately there's no way to chicken out of

   If you don't have any free partition space, you will need to backup 
a partition and delete it to resize things on your disk using 
sysinstall, which may require that you backup your entire disk and 
reinstall from scratch. For resizing NTFS partitions (if your system's 
dual-boot): http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfsresize.html. 
Googling for resize {filesystem type} will yield the answers to most 
questions that you might have about resizing any particular filesystem 
partition that you may have, but UFS2 support isn't available IIRC..

has no paraller port.

I have this rules for devfs

add path 'unlpt*' mode 0660 group cups
add path 'ulpt*' mode 0660 group cups

so perms are ok, ls -l show cups as the onwer of the printer.

anyone with a solution?

nameserver 192.168.0.1

Or whatever.  Is this correct?



Secondly, does there exist any documentation for configuring the dhcpd
program from ports?

Build file systems on the new drive in sizes to suit you.
Make sure you make the new drive bootable if the old one is used that way.
That involves  fdisk/bsdlabel/newfs  or you can do it using sysinstall
which calls fdisk, bsdlabel and newfs for you.  
Since your new disk is a little larger than the old one, decide where 
you want to apply the extra space.   If root and /usr are doing fine 
the way they are, I would suggest putting it all in whatever large
catch-all partition you have - often mounted as /home.
Mount up the new partitions to something meaningful.
that means mkdir to make the mount points and mount to mount the partitions.
Use dump/restore to transfer things.

Example:
  You have installed the new disk so it looks like /dev/ad1 
(the old dying one is /dev/ad0)
  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad1 bs=512 count=32  (This makes sure the new
drive is clean and can 
usually be omitted)
  fdisk -BI ad1 makes 1 FreeBSD slice
and writes the MBR
  bsdlabel -w -B ad1s1  makes the slice bootable
  bsdlabel -e ad1s1 edit the partition table
for the sizes you want.
Sample edited partition table:
  
  8 partitions:
#size   offsetfstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
  a:   52428804.2BSD 2048 16384 32776 
  b:  2097152*  swap

  g:**4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552


Ignore the stuff above the '8 partitions:' line.  eg. don't change it.
Also, do not change the c: numbers. (I made up one for the example)

The asterisks in the offset field tell bsdlabel to do the calculation.
The in the last size field tell it to put all the rest in that partition.

This gives the following sizes:

  a:   256   MB  (for root (/))
  b:  1024   MB  (for swap)
  c:  whole disk identifier
  d:   512   MB  (for /tmp)
  e:  2048   MB  (for /usr)
  f:  3072   MB  (for /var)
  g: 21657   MB (21 GB)  for that large catch-all, /home 
   
That may seem large for /usr, but will easily be used up if you 
install all source and do some major builds and install a lot of
ports.  In fact, you may want to move /usr/ports to /home and
make a symlink before you start building ports if you plan to
do some big ones like openoffice.   The 3 GB in /var gives room
to run a small database of some sort.  If you do a bigger one
you will want a lot more - maybe additional disk.   But for this
example, these sizes are nice.   In addition to catch-all, I am
presuming you put user home directories in /home.

I am presuming my example matches the partition structure you have
on the old disk.  It might be different, and so you might prefer to
follow that with adjusted sizes rather than the same partitions I
lay out here.

So, save and end the edit session for the partition table which
causes bsdlabel to write it to the disk label.   Now you have the
partitions created, all you need to do is turn them in to 
file systems using newfs.

Run a newfs on each partition except the one for swap.
  newfs /dev/ad1s1a   
etc
That would be /dev/ad1s1a, /dev/ad1s1d, /dev/ad1s1e, /dev/ad1s1f, ad1s1g

All the fdisk, bsdlabel and newfs stuff can be done with sysinstall
rather than by running each step by hand, but really it is about as
easy to do it step by step, and then you see each part and understand
it a little better.

Create mount points:
  mkdir /newroot
  mkdir /newusr
  mkdir /newvar
  mkdir /newhome

Probably don't need to bother with /tmp, since it shouldn't need
to be copied.  But you can if you like.

Mount the partitions:
  mount /dev/ad1s1a /newroot
  mount /dev/ad1s1e /newusr
  mount /dev/ad1s1f /newvar
  mount /dev/ad1s1g /newhome

Now use dump/restore to move stuff over.
  cd /newroot
  dump 0af - / | restore -rf -
  cd /newusr
  dump 0af - /usr | restore -rf -
  cd /newvar
  dump 0af - /var | restore -rf -
  cd /newhome
  dump 0af - /home | restore -rf -

If any of the restores come up and ask about setting owner/permissions
on . answer 'n'  I don't think it 

jail 127.0.0.x howto

2006-12-05 Thread vittorio
Under freebsd 6.1 I set up an apache 2.0 server in a jail working on fxp0 
10.155.1.10 and aliased as 10.155.1.11. It works like a charme.

Now while IP 10.155.1.10 is a fixed IP address I've been assigned by my office 
network administrator (it is also in the office DNS) the aliased IP address, 
10.155.1.11, is an abuse of mine just for the sake of trying if the jail 
worked.

Because I'm entitled to have  ** one** fixed IP only, I wonder how I can use 
the 127.0.0.x adddresses to setup the jail for apache, as I found suggested, 
better hinted, googling. A step by step example would be very helpful.
How to set up the jail using the internal addresses?

wifi dhcp

2006-12-05 Thread Steve Franks

Ok, we're losin our minds here. Me and a friend just bought up no less
than 4 boxes (server, 2 laptops, and a net-device) in about 2 weeks on
stable 6.1.  My first foray into bsd since '95, and I'm way-pleased.
One little problem: every one of them loses it's connection (aka ip)
when the wifi goes out and comes back, forcing us to 'dhclient xx0'
incessantly.  Note we're talking a belkin ath, an ativa ath, a wavelan
wi and a linksys wi, not all the same card or even driver.

Someone on current said, 'it's probably a problem with the driver's
link-state handling' -  whatever.  Oh, yeah, we've got one set on a
dlink ap, and the other on a linksys.  Both are running wep for legacy
reasons, which I have a sinking feeling may be a contributing factor.

Ideas?

thanks,
Steve

I see the same behavior (using an older wi(4) card). I haven't done much 
experimenting with it though since my house isn't that big and I don't lose 
my link that often. A couple things I would suggest trying, though:

Add a killall dhclient somewhere in your boot process. Not ideal for some 
circumstances, but if you only plan to be on one logical wireless network for 
a given session then it shouldn't hurt anything.

Try using the net/isc-dhcp3-client port instead of the base system's dhclient. 
E.g.:
cd /usr/ports/net/isc-dhcp3-client  make install clean
echo 'dhclient_program=/usr/local/sbin/dhclient'  /etc/rc.conf

If you have/use a dhclient.conf file you'll also need to either move it 
to /usr/local/etc or add 'dhclient_flags=-c /etc/dhclient.conf' 
to /etc/rc.conf.

Good luck!

You could redirect ports from the host to the internal jail loopback IP.

KINDA SOLVED: Re: help! directories changed into regular files! :(

2006-12-05 Thread martijn
Heheh, now i can reproduce it ;-)

I did an in-place searchreplace with sed on a bunch of symlinks to
directories, but i didn't remember they were symlinks. When you do that,
the symlink gets backed up as a normal file.

probably not the behauviour we want, but hey, thats live when you give
stupid commands ;-)

martijn.

Once upon a Tue, Dec 05 2006, martijn hit keys in the following order:
 Hi,
 
 I remembered thinking, should i backup the directory tree before this chang? 
 nah ;-)
 
 i used sed in a directory with subdirs, and it changed all directories into 
 normal files :(
 
 the exact command:
 
   sed -i -e s/'pm_properties\([^a-z]\)/#__properties\1/g' *
 
 after which i discovered it had name the directories name-e and had turned
 into regular files. no warnings whatsoever. (btw, yes i know that it should
 have been -i.orig)
 
 weird thing is, i can't reproduce the bug, and the command history wasn't big
 enough to figure out what was so special about this particular situation... 
 sed
 sais 'in-place editing only works for regular files' but this time it 
 didn't
 
 my question though: is there _any_ way to flip the bit that marks the file
 being a directory? it would really be helpful to me because i've just lost a
 lot of work.
 
 any ideas?
 
 bye

cyrus imap: seems Ok, but can't connect with mutt on localhost

Similarly, I can send an SMTP message to port 25, and watch Postfix 
correctly deliver it to cyrus, which squirrels it away in its spool. As 
a final test, I thought I should be able to access the IMAP folder on 
localhost via mutt. But it doesn't seem to work. When I fire up mutt 
(compiled from ports) and try to change folders:


  c imap://localhost/INBOX

It just hangs, with a Connecting to localhost... status message.

All I see in /var/log/debug.log is:

  Dec  5 23:27:20 localhost imap[56129]: accepted connection

Nothing in any other log files. Is there something really obvious that 
I'm overlooking?


Thanks,
David

extra printer card under fbsd 4.9 - how?

2006-12-05 Thread David Banning
I have been attempting to get a lava printer card to run under FreeBSD 4.9

I have the understanding that FreeBSD 4.9 and below only have recognition 
for isa printer cards and not pci. There -must- have been people out there 
using an extra printer on a 4.9 machine that has only pci slots.

In my case, my lava card is recognized by puc0 when the machine boots, but 
the puc is normally for serial card recognition and any googling I have done 
seems to point to the connection only routing to sio serial devices.

I read one post that it may be possible if I found a pci card that worked 
under DOS, or one that has interrupt DIP switches then I might be in 
business. Any help or experience that would help here?

I am stuck using 4.9 as I use the ibcs2 module which is broken in 5.06.x

Makefile question... please help...

2006-12-05 Thread VeeJay

Hi there,

Is it possible to make configuration changes in Makefile to install a port
as per one's requirments?

I want to accomplish two tasks

1. I want to configure mysql port before installation with following
parameters: Could someone tell me that where in the Makefile, I need to put
these paramenters in order to get my required results? Makefile is at the
end of my message.
Required Configuration paramenters:

--prefix=/usr/local/mysql
--with-mysqld-user=mysql
--with-unix-socket-path=/tmp/mysql.sock
--with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static


2. I want to install mysql at my given path, so I could be able to assign
the path to mysql user and chroot it PLEASE HELP!!!

Becuase, with default Makefile configuration, mysql installs all scripts
under /usr/local/sbin folder which other deamons also access for example
apache. so, if I alow the access only for mysql ... then other deamons will
not have any access...

chown -R root /usr/local/bin/mysql
chown -R mysql /usr/local/mysql/var
chgrp -R mysql /usr/local/mysql

2006-12-05 Thread Marcelo Celleri


Hi everyone,

I need to buy a cheap server, I was looking for something good and I
found the IBM X3400 but I would like to know if FreeBSD has the drivers
for the SATA RAID controller that comes embedded on the system.

At this time I haven't found the specifications for the controller, but
I think it's an Adaptec.


Thanks a lot,

Marcelo Celleri

I got it!. The SATA RAID controller is Adaptec AIC-9580W... Is there
full support on FreeBSD for this?

installing from a harddisk prepared in a functional system

2006-12-05 Thread Steve Franks

How does one make a 'boot' disk - be it cdrom, harddrive or flash
(presuming your bios will boot from all those devices, of course)?

1.The handbook specifies you need to minimally copy the /bin folder to
the destination.
2. Obviously you want a valid ufs2 partition.
3. I've repeatedly tried setting the 'bootable' option in fdisk, and
the 'A' appears next to the slice, but everytime I reboot it
dissappears, even after a 'W' command, so I'm going to try to get this
to go without using sysinstall by a manual copy, if I can.
4. Windows partitions need some special files, i.e. ntldr, at a
special location on the boot partiton - equivalent in bsd? Or does the
loader just look for /bin and load the kernel from there?
5. bootloader seems to work when I put the disk in the new computer -
get F1 and F2, but nothing else happens.

Basically I'm trying to make an 'image' - put a fresh disk in my
working system, format it, make it boot, at least to sysinstall, so I
can put it in my other system that has no floppy or cdrom to install
from, and get things rolling over the network card.  I was thinking I
could just do this with a single partition on the target disk, like
the install cdrom's do.  I want to turn a harddisk into an install
cdrom, and then have it install to itself, a dangerous idea, no doubt,
but it appears that it could work, I just can't get the new disk to
boot in the new system.

Thanks,
Steve

Re: custom rc.d script not working

2006-12-05 Thread Gobbledegeek

My script is in /etc/rc.d and it executes - only when I login and find
no zebra process... executing it manually starts zebra allright.

Why should I put it in /usr/local/etc/rc.d ?

I think I see a 0.99.5 version in freshports.org. I'll just use that instead.

Thanks ye all for the help...

Secondly, my most frequent error is error with these is to forget
to make them executable.  If the script does not have execute
permission, it is ignored.

Sorry to butt in ... butt

You came from linux, no?

The reason to put it in /usr/local/etc/rc.d instead of /etc/rc.d is because 
everyting in /etc is managed by the OS.  Everything in /usr/local is managed 
by you.

This is not of particular concern if you intend to just play with the OS and 
never commit to it ... let alone upgrade it, or use it in a production 
environment.  If you don't intend to use it in a production environment then 
put anything you want into /etc.

But if you plan to use the OS the way it was intended, then you will 
understand how an upgrade, and mergemaster, will take days instead of hours, 
because you've monkeyed with stuff in /etc

Pretend it's Windows.  Now ask yourself, do I really need to put this file 
into C:\Windows\System32?  Clearly the answer is ... WHAT ARE YOU DOING 
COMPARING THIS TO WINDOWS

But, clearly, I digress :)

is there a way that one can specify a log place to see
daily logs like you receive from [EMAIL PROTECTED], when
sendmail is turned on?

there must be a way to enable only local mail

Look at /etc/defaults/periodic.conf

(grep outp /etc/defaults/periodic.conf)

NB: changes should usually go in a file named /etc/periodic.conf

In you /etc/rc.conf.local file add:

sendmail_enable=no

This will only allow Sendmail accept and deliver local mail.

IIRC, sendmail has three controlling values in /etc/rc.conf:

sendmail_enable=YES
sendmail_enable=NO
and
sendmail_enable=NONE

The third value, NONE, causes the boot process to ignore any attempt to 
start sendmail.

The second value, NO, causes the boot process to start sendmail for local 
delivery, only (i.e. do NOT accept inbound connections from external hosts).

The first value, YES, causes the boot process to start sendmail for outgoing 
and incoming SMTP connections.

There are many tweaks that you can use in /etc/rc.conf - (refer 
to /etc/defaults/rc.conf) - that will allow various flavors of sendmail 
usage.  See also, /etc/rc.sendmail.

In your case sendmail_enable=NO should allow the local system to 
send periodic information to [EMAIL PROTECTED], or whatever alias you use 
in /etc/mail/aliases, while disallowing external hosts from sending email by 
way of the local host.  Note that this requires that you pay heed 
to /etc/mail/Makefile and associated README documentation 
in /usr/src/contrib/sendmail and below.

Best of luck!

If you had to enable inetd, it means it was the first time it was
executed, maybe /etc/rc.d/inetd start would be better as it was not
started before.

Are you sure that inetd is running?

ps auwx|grep inetd

Are you sure that your machine is listening on telnet port?

netstat -a |grep telnet

The way to do this live (i.e. without rebooting) is 

ls -al | grep inetd

take note othe number, such as:

  697  ??  Is 0:00.01 /usr/sbin/inetd -wW -C 60

Then

kill -HUP 697

This will restart inetd and anything that it manages for you, such as telnet, 
ftp, or whatever.

humm I doubt the ls -al will show any inetd process :)

A faster way would be killall -HUP inetd but that is true if an only
if inetd has been previsouly running (which may not be the case as

SiS SATA controllers that work with FreeBSD

2006-12-05 Thread Garrett Cooper

Hello,
	Just upgraded my server system from a 1.2 GHz Celeron to a 3.0 GHz and 
I'm running into an issue with the SATA RAID controller. Every time I 
have the controller enabled with the drive connected, the system locks 
up, possibly due to IRQ conflict, etc, but I'm not 100% sure. Also, I'm 
not sure what the exact model is for the controller, but it  possibly 
could be SiS 964 based on the schematics given in page 13 of the 
manual-available here: 
http://dlsvr01.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/sock478/p4s800d-x/e1753_p4s800d-x.pdf.

So, I was wondering..
1. If anyone has this motherboard on the list and have been successful 
with getting the SATA RAID controller to work.


..or...

2. If anyone has a motherboard with a similar chipset that they got the 
SATA controller to work with.


I tried googling a bit, but all I came up with is an possible lead that 
turned into a dead end (empty PR), and the supported hardware list isn't 
turning up anything helpful :(..


Here's my pciconf output (please note SATA controller is turned off in 
BIOS, but SiS964 is listed as a probed device--the LPC):
