Can someone please tell me the steps I need to do so that I can use CUPS as 
the printing system on FreeBSD 6.2 Release and so that I can connect to the 
CUPS server and administer it using the KDE Control Center?

I've tried everything I can find using Google to get CUPS working with KDE, 
but even when I manually configure the server to Listen localhost:631, the 
KDE control center shows the server as localhost:w and can't connect. Any 
help would be appreciated.

Starting from a new install of FreeBSD 6.2 Release, what packages/ports do I 
need to (install/not install) and what procedures do I need to perform in 
order to get CUPS working and configurable via KDE control center? Please 
specify details. Thanks

One last question. Do I need to unset these in sysctl.conf for CUPS 
administration to work?
net.inet.udp.blackhole=1
net.inet.tcp.blackhole=2

With them set, trying to connect to the administration page of CUPS via the 
web interface timed out and then failed, but when I removed the entries, the 
connection failed immediately. If I must unset them, is there another way to 
stealth ports 0 and 1 via firewall settings instead?

FreeBSD and GNUstep + etoile

First of all, let me apologize for the previous emails I sent about this 
combination on this forum. I was using a webmail and somehow my messages got 
truncated. That was kind of frustrating.

This being said, here is how I succeeded to get FreeBSD + GNUstep + etoile 
working:

First I compiled the necessary packages:
cd /usr/ports/x11/gnustep-app
make install
make distclean

This might take quiet a while... ;)

Then I added in /etc/csh.cshrc the line:
source /usr/local/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.csh

and in /etc/profile the line:
. /usr/local/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh

then in ~/.xession:
opentool etoile_system

There was a little hack that I had to do (this should be corrected soon 
though), I had to extract from etoile_0+20060917+dfsg.orig.tar.gz the 
setup.sh script and run it by hand. This script basically creates links where 
they are needed...

And then voila!
startx or just login from xdm, you will get etoile working on a GNUstep based 
system...

My first impressions about it:
- It's a 0.1 and it shows. However this is very promising
- Emacs 23 did not work for me
- The GNUstep look and feel is still very present. I did not succeed to change 
the theme with Camaelon (I did not try hard though...)

Connecting Garmin GPSMAP60 to the USB

2007-02-20 Thread Harry Jensen


Hello Guys,

I'm trying to get my Garmin GPSMAP60 conected to my desktop through the 
USB port, and then use gpsman. In gpsman is the port reference pointed 
to /dev/ugen0 (also tried dev/ugen0.1-3, but up to now, without success.


The system:
FreeBSD mugin.localhost 6.2-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p1 #0: Sun 
Feb 18 22:38:32 CET 2007 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MUGIN  i386


The message in dmesg when ataching/detaching:

ugen0: vendor 0x091e product 0x0003, rev 1.10/0.01, addr 3
ugen0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 3) disconnected
All threads purged from ugen0.3
All threads purged from ugen0.2
All threads purged from ugen0.1
All threads purged from ugen0
ugen0: detached

For my Palm Tungsten it all works perfectly, dmesg:

ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 3
ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 3
ucom0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 3) disconnected
All threads purged from cuaU0
All threads purged from ttyU0
ucom0: detached

The strange part of it is that the Palm Tungsten atachment/detachment 
had exactly same behavior and messages, until I loaded the ucom 
driver, so I suspect that the ugen driver might not be the correct one.


The question then is, which one to use?

  Yes, use the port.
 
   To be honest, I would like to avoid to install a binary that requires
   Linux support packages. It's not that I do not like Linux (I have 3
   Gentoo Linux at my disposal), it's simply that my machine is a FreeBSD
   machine and I would like to keep it as simple as possible.
 
  Unfortunately java is written in java so you will have to install a
  binary compiler (either linux or freebsd) first to bootstrap.
 
 OK. Where could I find the FreeBSD binary?
 Are you referring to: http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml ?

Or the equivalent diablo port.

 Then, would the binary be replaced by the one compiled or would they be in 
 parallel on my system?

They'd both be there.

Can you tell us more about your home set-up?  Presumably you have

I had, but perhaps in a different thread, so forgive me for not putting it here 
before. I have DHCP, a satellite dish to which both computers are linked.

If you don't know IP address of your internal server, than chances  
are that it was assigned via DHCP by your router.  For what you want  
to do, you should probably reconfigure the server with a specific  
internal IP address instead of having it assigned.

I do have the IP address, and no doubt it was assigned. I found it using 
ifconfig. Is that the correct way to do it?

Assuming that I've guessed correctly about your set-up:
First find out from your router what the the range of the DHCP pool  
is.  Look at the DHCP configuration on your router.  Then pick an  
address that is NOT in that range but still part of your local  
network.  Then use sysinstall on your FreeBSD box to give it that IP  
address.

If ifconfig isn't the way to do that, could you specify how? sysinstall is a 
GUI, so it'll just ask me a question, or I'll have to look on a chart to find 
what I need, right? Easy, right?

Use netstat -anf inet on the server and see if port 80 or 8080 is 
LISTENING, and on what address.  

This reports tcp4 listening on 192.168.1.130.80. Nothing on 8080, which would 
indicate a problem with my configuration of Zope.

If the server is LISTENING on the 
FBSD box on the correct ports, but nmap doesn't show it, then I would 
assume a firewall problem, but I'm not on the ground there.  

Okay, can you give me some suggestions as to how to troubleshoot this?

If you do 
see a LISTENING entry, use that interface (assuming it's Ethernet and 
one that it accessible from your laptop) as the entry in the laptop's 
hosts file.

Did that, but I get a Service is not available. message in the browser (FF).

192.168.1.255 is a broadcast address and should not be used for the 
configuration of a webserver (is that what pound daemon is?  Think so, 
can't remember previous mail at this point).

Pound is a reverse proxy. It just redirects traffic from one port to another. 
The actual server is built into Zope.

Re: Operation not permitted when mounting floppy or cdrom

For ordinary users to be able to mount file systems, three

-1-  sysctl vfs.usermount=1

-2-  The user must have read+write access to the device
 to be mounted.  Usually you will solve that via
 group permissions, e.g. create a group for people
 who are allowed to mount a certain device, then put
 those people into that group (via /etc/group), and
 change the permission modes of the device so that
 the group can read+write it.

-3-  The user must own the mount point.  Note that read+
 write access is not sufficient here, and group rights
 don't matter -- the user must be the owner of the
 mount point.

FreeBSD 4 is no longer supported in any way by ports, update to 6.2 or
make do with out-of-date ports that will never again be updated (you
can use the RELEASE_4_EOL tag until you can upgrade the box).

Thanks for your advice Kris. Unfortunately I just rent the virtual

help needed setting up NATIVE ipv6 connection

2007-02-20 Thread Arone Silimantia

Hello,

I am in a datacenter that provides native (not tunneled) ipv6 connectivity.

Unfortunately, all of the howtos for FreeBSD are focused on tunneling ipv6 and 
using gif0, etc.  This does not apply to me because I have a real ipv6 
connection.

Right now things are simple - I have a single ipv4 address, and a single 
default gateway.  Easy.

My provider has given me a /48.  They emailed me and told me the following:

- IP block is 1234:1234:1234::/48
- gateway is ::1

That is all they told me.  So my first instinct was to ifconfig an alias on em0 
with inet6, and then add a inet6 default route.  BUT, I keep reading that with 
ipv6 you don't want to manually configure addresses and routes - there is some 
kind of fancy autoconfigure you can do with your gateway so that you don't need 
to manually configure the addresses (?)

So two questions:

- is there indeed some fancy autoconfigure, and I don't need to manually 
ifconfig and 'route add inet6 default'

- if not, assuming I just want to assign a single ipv6 address to myself (let's 
say, ::2, since ::1 is the gateway) what is the ifconfig syntax to add that one 
ipv6 address to my NIC (em0) as an alias that will not interfere with the ipv4 
address that is already there ?

Thanks.

Greeting,
I am try use motherboard 
ETX-LX800(http://emea.kontron.com/index.php?id=226cat=31productid=1321) with 
Freebsd OS. There are AMD Geode CPU, CS5536 motherboard chipset and VIA VT6421. 
I have problem whith boot from flash card CF which are connected by  VT6421. 
System halt on BTX load. There are problem with USB too. When USB is enabled, 
system halt on loading USB drivers. There is no problem with booting from 
CD-ROM when USB disabled. Other OS booting without problem too. How can I use 
this motherboard and CF?   May be system must use only BIOS functions for work 
with this hardware? How?

Enet driver for Marvell

2007-02-20 Thread jekillen


Hello;
A while ago, a matter of a few months I inquired of this list regarding
installation of FreeBSD v6.0 on ASUS M2N32 WS Pro motherboard.
I was not able to set up dual ethenet inter faces as the only option
presented by sysinstall when configuring enet interface was
fw30 as firewire ethernet emulation. I was advise to upgrade to v6.2
which I have just done. I still do not have more than the fwe interface
presented.
The response to the original message, I can not find, but I was told
that the motherboard was probably one with new Marvell interfaces.
Now, I have looked at the features listed on the motherboard package
and there it is;
2x Marvell 88E1116 PHY
Is there a driver that has to be activated by kernel config setting or
what is the status of support for this hardware in FreeBSD?
I just looked through the supported hardware/ethernet devices for
the i386 architecture and did not find any reference to Marvell.
I purchase a cd set of v6.2 cds from FreeBSD Mall (not inplying
any criticism, just that it represents a method of contribution to
this project).
This is frustrating because this machine is supposed to be a production
web server. Hardware including dual 15K SCSI drives and adapter  has run
in the neighborhood of $1000 and it still is not useful for it' 
intended purpose

Any info or advice appreciated
Thanks in advance;
Jeff K

You forgot to mention which version of FreeBSD you're running, but
it's probably an ancient one that is no longer supported.

Kris




yup ok its an ancient one:
su-2.05a# uname -v
FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE : Tue Apr  8 11:35:48 GMT 2003

I am stuck with it (its a virtual server) so is there any way i can get 
ports working? I just love 'portinstall xyz'!

make installkernel with PORT_MODULES = kqemu-kmod fails

2007-02-20 Thread Milan Knizek

Hello List!

I have the following trouble:

# cat /etc/make.conf | grep PORTS_MODULES
PORTS_MODULES=  x11/nvidia-driver emulators/kqemu-kmod

running:
# cd /usr/src
# make buildkernel
# make installkernel
goes fine for installation of kernel and nvidia-driver, but making kqemu-mod 
fails.

It deinstalls it, then starts to build and finds no gmake, which is required 
as a dependency - hence it descends to devel/gmake and starts building it. 
Finally it fails since gmake is already installed -- make deinstall and make 
reinstall is recommended.

When I run:
# cd /usr/ports/emulators/kqemu-kmod
# make install clean
All goes fine - during the dependency test, the gmake is found.

What's wrong here?

Regards,

Is it possible to build sun-jdk-1.5 from the source?

Hello,

Is it possible to build sun-jdk-1.5 from the source code?
If yes, how to do that?

To be honest, I would like to avoid to install a binary that requires Linux 
support packages. It's not that I do not like Linux (I have 3 Gentoo Linux at 
my disposal), it's simply that my machine is a FreeBSD machine and I would 
like to keep it as simple as possible.

Unfortunately java is written in java so you will have to install a

Problem with if_bridge and PF

Hello all,

I miss, 

I have created an bridge with freebsd 6.2, I have compiled a new kernel with 
if_bridge option.
But I cannot ping my second interface, the tunnel works great because packets 
can transit between the two interfaces. 

Someone have an idea for resolve this problem of ping???

Entering stock sales on 1.8.12 (FreeBSD)

2007-02-20 Thread Oliver Iberien

Hi,

I am trying to follow the instructions for recording sales of shares at 
http://svn.gnucash.org/docs/guide/invest-sell1.html but it must refer to some 
newer version of GnuCash that is not in the ports tree yet. I'm trying to 
guess the order in which it wants items entered (apparently not the one shown 
in the example at 8.7.1) with no luck. Is there some older documentation left 
somewhere?

Re: Compiler Flags for SPARC64

On Mon, Feb 19, 2007 at 02:14:04PM +0100, Christian Baer wrote:
 Hello everybody out there!
 
 Please excuse my posting this question again on this list, but the last
 post on the freebsd-sparc64 didn't help much. There isn't really much
 traffic on that list.
 
 Assuming that gcc when run on sparc64 produces v7 code (for sun4/4c) by
 default, I went about trying to improve that as v7 code is known to be a
 fair bit slower as v9 (sun4u) code. The improvement can be as much as
 100% for some apps like OpenSSL or OpenSSH.
 
 I went about trying some Compiler flags. -mcpu=ultrasparc and -mcpu=v9
 both came into mind. However this lead to several problems of programs
 not compiling anymore. Most notably was the failure of 'make buildworld'.
 
 When gcc is told to produce v9 code, it doesn't produce 64bit code (you
 have to set -m64 for that), it just uses a few additional commands the
 CPU knows, which should make the resulting code faster but no longer
 compatible with older CPUs (non-UltraSPARC). This means that there
 shouldn't be any problem with pointers that are now strange to the
 code. But even if I explicitly set the -m32 flag, I still can't make the
 world.
 
 I discussed this in a German newsgroup, where someone told me that the
 CPU is set to v9 by default on FreeBSD, as it only supports SPARC64 and
 not SPARC32. Although this assumption makes sense, I couldn't find any
 evidence to back it up. While some compiler flags are set by default
 on some platforms for optimization for that particular CPU, there
 doesn't seem to be anything set for sparc64. Additionaly, if the mcpu
 were really set to ultrasparc or v9, then setting it again shouldn't
 cause buildworld to stop with the error I don't know what platform this
 is.
 
 Has anyone got any ideas on how to go on with this?

You'll have to look at the compiler spec and how it is bootstrapped.
FWIW, I don't think there are any secret flags you can set to improve
the compiler targetting, as the defaults are already appropriate.

The only thing you need to access your server from your workstation, if they
are in the same LAN (and subnet...;) ) is the IP address.

 updated pound to use that address, and was able to get the pound daemon
 running. However, I cannot surf to either mercury.com or the IP address. When
 I run this command: nmap localhost I discover that no Web ports are open:
 neither 80, nor 8080 (Zope), whose daemon is running. nmap 192.168.1.255
 doesn't return any ports, stating it seems the host is down. nmap
 192.168.1.130 the other address returned from your ifconfig command, gives
 the same ports as above. Please advise.

since you are bothering with nmap...why dont you just scan all your IP space
(as in your LAN's IP subnet) and move on? :) 

btw, you DO have apache running on your server, right?

Can you tell us more about your home set-up?  Presumably you have  
some sort of router doing NAT and DHCP?  Tell us about it.



All I need is something like this:
123.456.78.90:8080/example_site
so I can look at said site.


If you don't know IP address of your internal server, than chances  
are that it was assigned via DHCP by your router.  For what you want  
to do, you should probably reconfigure the server with a specific  
internal IP address instead of having it assigned.


Assuming that I've guessed correctly about your set-up:
First find out from your router what the the range of the DHCP pool  
is.  Look at the DHCP configuration on your router.  Then pick an  
address that is NOT in that range but still part of your local  
network.  Then use sysinstall on your FreeBSD box to give it that IP  
address.


Many of the details depend on details of your set-up which I don't  
know, so it is hard to be more specific.


Cheers,

  If yes, how to do that?

 Yes, use the port.

  To be honest, I would like to avoid to install a binary that requires
  Linux support packages. It's not that I do not like Linux (I have 3
  Gentoo Linux at my disposal), it's simply that my machine is a FreeBSD
  machine and I would like to keep it as simple as possible.

 Unfortunately java is written in java so you will have to install a
 binary compiler (either linux or freebsd) first to bootstrap.

OK. Where could I find the FreeBSD binary?
Are you referring to: http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml ?

Then, would the binary be replaced by the one compiled or would they be in 
parallel on my system?

My provider has given me a /48.  They emailed me and told me the

alias on em0 with inet6, and then add a inet6 default route.  BUT, I 
keep reading that with ipv6 you don't want to manually configure 
addresses and routes - there is some kind of fancy autoconfigure you 
can do with your gateway so that you don't need to manually configure 
the addresses (?)


So two questions:

- is there indeed some fancy autoconfigure, and I don't need to 
manually ifconfig and 'route add inet6 default'


Add the following line in /etc/rc.conf

ipv6_enable=YES

This is enough to let FreeBSD configure the interface with IPv6 
automatically using router solicitation.


- if not, assuming I just want to assign a single ipv6 address to 
myself (let's say, ::2, since ::1 is the gateway) what is the ifconfig 
syntax to add that one ipv6 address to my NIC (em0) as an alias that 
will not interfere with the ipv4 address that is already there ?


ifconfig_fxp4=inet ipv4
ifconfig_fxp4_alias0=inet ipv4
ifconfig_fxp4_alias1=inet6 1234:1234:1234::2/64
ifconfig_fxp4_alias2=inet6 1234:1234:1234::3/64


Thanks.


Think of it in the same way as Static/DHCP v4 works.
Static machines have manually assigned addresses, dynamic/moving
clients have autoconfigure by dhcp. It works in a similiar way,
you will need to configure ip addresses using ifconfig em0 inet6
as normal.


Autoconfiguration is not intended to be done by DHCP. There may be a 
router advertising daemon rtadvd(8) running on the gateway that answers 
router solicitation requests of hosts in the network. Nevertheless 
DHCPv6 has been designed to offer IP to requesting clients. 
Unfortunately there is no DHCPv6 daemon available that implements this 
feature as far as I know, not even the WIDE-DHCPv6 daemon (net/dhcp6).

Deciphering camcontrol - is prefetch enabled?

2007-02-20 Thread Kirk Strauser

I have a new set of SCSI drives, all like:

da2 at mpt0 bus 0 target 3 lun 0
da2: SEAGATE ST336754LW 0005 Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device
da2: 320.000MB/s transfers (160.000MHz, offset 63, 16bit), Tagged Queueing 
Enabled
da2: 35003MB (71687372 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 4462C)

From what I can tell, the only way to adjust parameters on SCSI drives is
through camcontrol's modepage option.  The output on one of the new disks
looks like:

$ sudo camcontrol modepage 0:2 -m 8
IC:  0
ABPF:  0
CAP:  0
DISC:  1
SIZE:  0
WCE:  1
MF:  0

Write Retention Priority:  0
Disable Pre-fetch Transfer Length:  65535
Minimum Pre-fetch:  0
Maximum Pre-fetch:  65535
Maximum Pre-fetch Ceiling:  65535

I'm pretty sure that WCE means write cache enabled, which is what we
want.  However, I'm pretty sure I want to enable prefetching, too, since
data access on them will often involve a set of concurrent long streaming
reads.  In that case, wouldn't prefetch reduce contention among the read
processes?  If so, from looking at the above output, does it seem to be
enabled?  Since I left my handy Cryptic SCSI Acronym Dictionary elsewhere,
I don't have any idea what the above is actually trying to tell me.

I just discovered freebsd-update, and one thing I'm not sure of based  
on both the freebsd-update website and manpage is whether specifying  
a branch is necessary after I've recompiled world in the past if no  
kerberos/crypt related options are present in make.conf overriding  
the defaults? Is the specification of the branch only necessary if  
you want to abide by your make.conf overrides, and if you have none,  
the branch argument is optional?

ssh to VMS - terminal problems

2007-02-20 Thread Anton Shterenlikht

HI

I connect to a VMS box from my FreeBSD laptop via ssh.
When I run a full screen text editor (EDIT) my terminal screen behaves
unpredictably: cursor jumps from place to place, keystrokes produce
characters in unpredictable places, screen menu flows with the text
rather than stay at the bottom. Hovewer, if I scroll the offending
bit up of down from the screen and back into the screen I can see
my changes. I assume the problem lies in some terminal incompartibility.

My box is
% uname -a
6.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD #0: Wed Nov 22 09:36:22 GMT 2006
 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SC  i386
%

I had exactly the same problem with 6.1.

I use sc driver. In a desperate attempt to resolve the problem I tried
pcvt driver, but that seems to be faulty and no longer supported, freezes
screen and the keyboard. However, I'm not sure if the actual driver
 has anything to do with my problem.

At the moment I use
% echo $TERM
cons25
%

but I tried several other terminals I found in /etc/termcap, including
various VT terminals. This is when I tried to use pcvt instead of sc,
because I thought that maybe a VT term requires pcvt driver. Does it
make any sense?

On the other hand I tried to change terminal settings on the VMS box,
which are many. At present these look as follows:

 $ show terminal/full
Terminal: _FTA20: Device_Type: VT100 Owner: MEXAS

   Input:9600 LFfill:  0  Width:  80  Parity: None
   Output:   9600 CRfill:  0  Page:   24

Terminal Characteristics:
   InteractiveEcho   Type_ahead No Escape
   Hostsync   TTsync Lowercase  Tab
   Wrap   Scope  No Remote  No Eightbit

   Advanced_video No Edit_mode   DEC_CRTNo DEC_CRT2
   No DEC_CRT3No DEC_CRT4No DEC_CRT5No Ansi_Color
   VMS Style InputCTRL-H Backspace
 $

I cannot remember which settings I tried and which I did not, but the
possible number of combinations is too big to try all.

If I run ssh from a terminal emulator in xorg, all seems fine.

Perhaps somebody can suggest an option to try or perhaps I'm missing
someting alltogeter?

 My partitions will be:
 /

 as suggested using the auto option during slice creation.
 
 I've found that if I use the default sizes that are chosen by the installer 
 using the auto option, the /usr partition fills up before everything is

 feature sets the sizes around the following sizes for my HDD:
 / ~500MB
 swap  ~600MB
 /var  ~1300MB
 /tmp  ~ 500MB
 /usr  ~3GB
 
 
 I've played around with the sizes, reducing /var to around 350Mb, / to around 
 256Mb, and /tmp to around 256Mb leaving the space gained to /usr. In this 
 way, I got FreeBSD installed OK, but I'm considering installing it for a 
 final time and using it exclusively for my desktop after testing various 
 linuxes and FreeBSD and comparing them. So, I would like to get the sizes of 
 FreeBSD's slices optimized. I'm sure there are plenty of people in the user 
 community with a similar usage/size situation who can advise me.

If you are not using a database system like MySQL, your later
scheme is probably good.   I might make /var 512 MB, but otherwise
not change much.   6 GB is kind of a small disk for 'modern' times
but you should be able to run OK.  You will need to keep your logs
in /var/log cleaned out regularly.   You could trim / a little more
if you really need to.  That is what I make mine, but on a much 
bigger disk.  You could get by with 160 MB or even a little less.
Making it 128 MB might be cutting things a little close.

Note that good Seagate and other major brand disks in the 70 GB range 
are getting pretty cheap now from places like NewEgg, etc.   You might
think about that.

Have fun,

jerry

By LTSP, I assume you mean Linux Terminal Server Project.  You
really should have spelled out what the letters LTSP stand for, to
save the aggravation of someone who is trying to help you.

FreeBSD can run many Linux applications, but you will need to enable
Linux support.  Please refer to the FreeBSD handbook on how to enable
the necessary support.  You also need to tell us:

1)  What steps you have tried,
2)  Whether you have bothered reading the manuals,
3)  What error message(s) you are seeing.

This is not an LTSP support forum; it's a FreeBSD support forum.  We
can help you get Linux support enabled, but you really should seek
help with LTSP, not here.

Connecting Garmin GPSMAP60 to the USB

2007-02-20 Thread Harry Jensen


Hello Guys,

I'm trying to get my Garmin GPSMAP60 conected to my desktop through the
USB port, and then use gpsman. In gpsman is the port reference pointed
to /dev/ugen0 (also tried dev/ugen0.1-3, but up to now, without success.

The system:
FreeBSD mugin.localhost 6.2-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p1 #0: Sun
Feb 18 22:38:32 CET 2007
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MUGIN  i386

The message in dmesg when ataching/detaching:

ugen0: vendor 0x091e product 0x0003, rev 1.10/0.01, addr 3
ugen0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 3) disconnected
All threads purged from ugen0.3
All threads purged from ugen0.2
All threads purged from ugen0.1
All threads purged from ugen0
ugen0: detached

For my Palm Tungsten it all works perfectly, dmesg:

ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 3
ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 3
ucom0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 3) disconnected
All threads purged from cuaU0
All threads purged from ttyU0
ucom0: detached

The strange part of it is that the Palm Tungsten atachment/detachment
had exactly same behavior and messages, until I loaded the ucom
driver, so I suspect that the ugen driver might not be the correct one.

The question then is, which one to use?

Perhaps it is possible to reduce / to ~128 mb? boot up and see
estimate that you need several mb free and estimate double of
/boot/kernel directory (if you install new kernel you get to keep the
old one, therefore estimate double that directory size).
Swap ... well for a successful crash dump you need as much as swap as
you have memory.
/var can be further reduced to perhaps 512mb or perhaps even less?
if you do buildworld then /var/tmp/ might be used more. Perhaps you
could merge / and /var and symlink /var/tmp with say /usr/tmp ?
/tmp can be reduced, you can even remove it completely and use tmpfs for
that partition.
/usr needs the rest

Just a (cluttered) suggestion.

The cool part about FreeBSD is what you can get away with, just by
symlinking (ln -s) a few folders here and there. After all, it's just
your desktop, right?

Thanks very much for this. A few more questions. The instructions say:

0. _Remove_ _all_ sound support in your kernel! Do this first before

1. Extract, dump everything into your kernel directory typically
   /boot/kernel
2. kldxref /boot/kernel
3. cp soundcard.h /usr/include/sys/
4. Reload _ALL_ sound modules, or, reboot.

Is it necessary to recompile the kernel without sound support, if it has

sound?

Does dump everything mean use dump, or could they just be copied? If dump, 
how is it used?

Mounting a smb share from fstab

2007-02-20 Thread Grant Wagner

Hi Folks,

  I'm attempting to mount a guest smb share on my server at boot up.
I've
set up a .nsmbrc file which will get me past a password login if I
try to
mount it after a log in, and I've added the following line to my
fstab file.

//[EMAIL PROTECTED]/DataHeap /mnt/server smbfs rw 0 0

Now, since my .nsmbrc file is in my home directory, it's clearly not
read
during boot up and the whole process pauses waiting for me to input
an empty
password.

Can I somehow add a flag to fstab to tell it it's only a guest
account and
thus doesn't need a password or perhaps move the .nsmbfs file
somewhere
where it's picked up at boot time? Any ideas?

Mounting a smb share from fstab

2007-02-20 Thread Grant Wagner

 
Hi Folks,

  I'm attempting to mount a guest smb share on my server at boot up.
I've
set up a .nsmbrc file which will get me past a password login if I
try to
mount it after a log in, and I've added the following line to my
fstab file.

//[EMAIL PROTECTED]/DataHeap /mnt/server smbfs rw 0 0

Now, since my .nsmbrc file is in my home directory, it's clearly not
read
during boot up and the whole process pauses waiting for me to input
an empty
password.

Can I somehow add a flag to fstab to tell it it's only a guest
account and
thus doesn't need a password or perhaps move the .nsmbfs file
somewhere
where it's picked up at boot time? Any ideas?

Grant

Re: Unable to upgrade subversion 1.4.2 to 1.4.3 (apache22 db4 support)

Hi list,

I'm trying to upgrade subversion from 1.4.2 to 1.4.3 (as part of a full
system update using 'portupgrade -a') but during compilation it aborts
with the following message:


You should build `www/apache22' with db4 support to use subversion with
it. Please rebuild `www/apache22' with option
`WITH_BERKELYDB=(db4|db41|db42)' and try again.


(or it suggests disabling db4 entirely with WITHOUT_DBD)

Since it doesn't seem like a bad idea to have the DB4 repository backend 
available I decided to recompile apache22 (version 2.2.4) with DB4 
support by adding the following to the MAKE_ARGS list in 
/usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf:


  'www/apache22' = 'WITH_BERKELYDB=db42',



Problem solved now. I double checked several times, yet somehow I missed 
that I had written BERKELY instead of BERKELEY

 Would it be possible to build it from scratch, without the need for a Java

If you've got a FreeBSD binary of jdk-1.5, you'll be able to use it to

Can't upgrade misc/shared-mime-info

2007-02-20 Thread Justin Meyer

Hi all,

I'm not sure if this should go to -ports, so I thought I'd start here.

As part of a portupgrade, shared-mime-info-0.19 is supposed to be
upgraded to -0.20. This is failing w/ a linker error, apparently like
this:

cc  -O -pipe -march=athlon-xp -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wwrite-strings  -L/usr/local/lib -o
update-mime-database  update_mime_database-
update-mime-database.o -L/usr/local/lib -lxml2 -lglib-2.0 -liconv
/usr/local/lib/libxml2.so: undefined reference to `pthread_equal'
gmake[1]: *** [update-mime-database] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/usr/ports/misc/shared-mime-info/work/shared-mime-info-0.20'
gmake: *** [check-recursive] Error 1
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/ports/misc/shared-mime-info.

What's bugging me here is that libxml2.so is *not* linked against
pthread:

# ldd /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so
/usr/local/lib/libxml2.so:
 libz.so.3 = /lib/libz.so.3 (0x282bf000)
 libiconv.so.3 = /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.3 (0x282d)
 libm.so.4 = /lib/libm.so.4 (0x283c)

... although strings shows me that there are nonetheless at least
references to pthread_* functions in there:

# strings /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.5 |grep pthread_
pthread_mutex_init
pthread_mutex_destroy
pthread_mutex_lock
pthread_mutex_unlock
pthread_cond_init
pthread_cond_destroy
pthread_self
pthread_equal
...

I made a point of forcing a recompile of libxml2, making sure that I
wasn't defining WITH_THREADS. Still no dice, so what gives?

Can anyone tell me:

1) what's going on, and how to fix it? Or
2) what more info could I usefully provide about my system? or
3) that this should definitely go to -ports? :)

Thanks!

Root devices changing on Dell 2950 with dual perc 5

2007-02-20 Thread Dan D Niles


I just installed FreeBSD 6.2 on a Dell 2950.  I installed it on a raid 1
on the integrated Perc 5i.  The root device was /dev/mfid0s2a.

Then, I configured a raid 5 device on the Perc 5e.  Now, my root device
was /dev/mfid1s2a.   As a test, I configured an additional raid 1 device
on the Perc 5e.  Now my root device is /dev/mfid2s2a.

How do I get the internal raid device to be /dev/mfid0 and not change
every time I add an external raid device?

The machine BIOS lists the Perc 5i first, and the Perc BIOS lists the
Perc 5i as controller 0 and the Perc 5e as controller 1.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks,

 Perhaps it is possible to reduce / to ~128 mb? boot up and see

Right now, I'm running slackware, but if I remember correctly, the / partition 
contained about 40 to 60 Mb or data.

 estimate that you need several mb free and estimate double of
 /boot/kernel directory (if you install new kernel you get to keep the
 old one, therefore estimate double that directory size).
 Swap ... well for a successful crash dump you need as much as swap as
 you have memory.

I have 312Mb of usable RAM, so I made the swap around double that.

 /var can be further reduced to perhaps 512mb or perhaps even less?

I wasn't sure how much I'd need in /var, so I didn't want to undersize it too 
much. But, I don't spool large print jobs, and I set the logs to be trimmed 
regularly.

 Just a (cluttered) suggestion.

 The cool part about FreeBSD is what you can get away with, just by
 symlinking (ln -s) a few folders here and there. After all, it's just
 your desktop, right?

Agreed. I'm just experimenting and learning at this point. Thanks for the 
suggestions, Sten.

Not a true fix but you could take a look at geom label.  It will allow 
you to label each partition with a static device id.

Aside from detecting the status of the DSL link, ppp(8) can handle

can be tricky; among other things, the techniques available depend on
how you interface to the DSL line.  You may need some kind of

using a ping of some upstream router.

 So, what was pcvt driver designed for? I understood from the man
 pages that it is supposed to be compartible with DEC function keys?

Most of these drivers are just good enough to run vi (so they can use
a termcap written to accommodate a DEC terminal).

VMS wants more than just function keys - the terminal has to respond
to control sequences that ask what it is, for instance.  I see from
the show-terminal that it either guessed that it was a VT100, or that
it was told that it was.

If you capture the output from the host with 'script', you can see what's
sent to the terminal. Seeing the replies is harder, but that might provide
some clues.

Running vttest would show some of the issues (for a 25-line console
screen, that would be something like vttest 25x80.80 to make it workable).

That reminds me -
Of course VMS thinks you have 24 lines (which makes all of the scrolling
not work properly).  You can modify that setting (the page in the show
term).  There are other likely problems...

Re: Best partitioning scheme for my HDD? Please advise.

2007-02-20 Thread Roger Olofsson


Hello Joe,

May I suggest a small trick that really makes your life alot easier. Go 
with the default values when you install the FreeBSD, ie accept the 
sysinstall generated autos. (Make sure to make / and swap the first 
partitions though).


Now, whenever a partition gets filled up, just do a symlink to another 
partition. The command is ln -s and is a real lifesaver. Whenever all 
partitions are full, just stick another HD in the machine and ln -s to 
that drive.


Say f'rinstance that your /var/log gets filled up. Just symlink it to 
another partition with more space. (Of course when it comes to logs, you 
should always set these to rotate and newsyslog.conf is your friend.)


This works for everything, you can of course change stuff like the 
mysql-server.sh script to point database folders to different places 
than default but why bother when a simple symlink does the trick?


Now, the next trick I'd recommend is a bit more complicated to setup but 
it's basically the natural evolution of a symlink on a local machine. If 
you have another FreeBSD machine in your network, make one a NFS daemon 
and the other a NFS client and NFS-mount a drive from one machine to the 
other over the network. You could also use Samba to do this if your 
other machines aren't FreeBSD.


Good luck!

Greetings
/Roger

Re: Is it possible to build sun-jdk-1.5 from the source?

Hello,


  Is it possible to build sun-jdk-1.5 from the source code?
  If yes, how to do that?
 
  To be honest, I would like to avoid to install a binary that requires
  Linux support packages. It's not that I do not like Linux (I have 3
  Gentoo Linux at my disposal), it's simply that my machine is a FreeBSD
  machine and I would like to keep it as simple as possible.

 Your best bet in that case would be to install the diablo package from
 http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml (for me the 6.1
 package works fine on 6.2 and i've seen posts from other people saying
 the same.) Then install the sun jdk port, which can use the diablo
 package to build. You can then deinstall the diablo jdk.

That's exactly what I did and it worked flawlessly. Thanks all of you for the 
help. ;)

Which file to request SIOCGIFMAC on?

2007-02-20 Thread nocturnal


Hi

I'm trying to get the ethernet address and from the manuals i understand 
that i need the ifreq structure for this. So i'm trying to request 
SIOCGIFMAC with ioctl on a socket of type SOCK_DGRAM.


Now i couldn't figure out from the manuals which format but i've tried 
PF_LOCAL, PF_INET and AF_INET. With PF_LOCAL i get the error Operation 
not supported from ioctl but with AF_INET or PF_INET i get Invalid 
argument.


This is a snippet of code that i use to get the ethernet address. 
Earlier code has already verified the char *ifname which contains the 
interface name.


[..]
int if_socket;
struct ifreq ifr;

memset(ifr, 0, sizeof(ifr));

I know the rest of the code works fine because this is something i'm 
adding to a working program. Also it's obviously stopping at the ioctl 
since i get the error ioctl: SIOCGIFMAC: : Invalid argument.

   No, a packet is not dropped on a condition that fails a skipto test. 
   
  The manpage doesn't make this point clear.


You pretty much have to read it all .. several times .. a year.  One of
the things you note is that each rule is tested until a packet is either
allowed or denied by a rule, even until '65535 deny ip from any to any'.

  limit {src-addr | src-port | dst-addr | dst-port} N
The firewall will only allow N connections with the same 
set of parameters as specified in the rule.


Yes, for this rule.  It still needs to be applied to an allow or deny
(or forward, divert etc, anything that terminates the search). 

To limit the number of connections a user can open you can use the 
  following type of rules:

  ipfw add allow tcp from my-net/24 to any setup limit src-addr 10
  ipfw add allow tcp from any to me setup limit src-addr 4

Yes.  Notice that these are allow rules, so the search terminates when
successfully matched.  It is assumed you'll later have rule/s denying
what you've not allowed.  True, this is not stated with every example. 



  I'm assuming the packet gets silently dropped when the limit is 
  overloaded but gets acted upon otherwise due to the stateful limit 
  behaviour (keep-state in disguise). Just do a skipto when there's a 
  state entry and that's it. And that's why the counter grows for 
  established connections too, even though there's a setup modifier.


Can't tell without seeing your whole ruleset, but now that you know that
the skipto rule has NOT dropped the setup packets that don't match that
rule (including those exceeding the src-addr limit), I suspect you'll
find another rule has allowed them, on some other condition, later on.



Wrong: the implied check-state done by the limit lets the connection 
through (i.e. performs the action) iff there's state recorded for it 
(src-addr+src-port+dst-addr+dst-port). If however it's a SYN packet 
incoming and the number of current states is trying to cross the limit, 
the SYN packet is implicitly dropped and the search terminates.


This is not to say that I completely understand the things going on when 
the connections start building up (different timeouts?) but the above 
conclusion is based on what simulation has shown. The whole ruleset fits 
on one screen, there's an allow ip from any to any in the end, so I'm 
pretty sure I'm not crazy :-)


  As for the problem, it seems to me that all this noise is because of 
  different timeouts in ipfw and TCP layer/whatever. The dynamic state 
  entry for a connection expires while netstat -na still show the 
  connection as ESTABLISHED, or, worse, the state entry is still there but 
  the corresponding connection is in some half-closed state (FIN_WAIT_2, 
  CLOSE_WAIT, LAST_ACK). The first case allows many more connections than 
  limit, while the second case won't let many good clients connect due 
  to their buggy browsers not closing connections and letting the count 
  build up. Could this be it?


I don't believe so.  They can only have been established in the first
place if the setup packet has been, somewhere in your ruleset, allowed.



Yup. Then, after setting up the connections, the state times out earlier 
than the actual connection shown by netstat! Gotta play a bit more with 
the *_lifetime sysctls... And yes (answering to someone else on the 
list), net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_keepalive is on: I don't tend to mess with the 
default values of things I don't understand or care about... only what's 
absolutely necessary.



Here it seems they're allowed (at least the ones from x.x.x.x/x) by the
fwd at 401 which has no 'setup' constraint, and will fwd both setup AND
established packets from x.x.x.x/x .. other rules, y and z, presumably.

Replaying .. trying not to do quite so much in one rule, but given you
can't just 'allow' here, since you want to run your fwd rules later: 


  00350 skipto 401 tcp from x.x.x.x/x,y.y.y.y/y,z.z.z.z/z to any dst-port \
80 in via if0 setup limit src-addr 10

   00350 skipto 370 tcp from ${thatmob} to any dst-port 80 in via if0
   00360 skipto 401 ip from any to any   # bit clunky,

Re: Update and install new packages immediate after installation

2007-02-20 Thread Jerry McAllister

Hi folks,

FreeBSD-6.2-amd64

Just finished installing the captioned OS which is now working. There is no
major desktop running on the OS, such as KDE/Gnome/Xfce, as well as some
other necessary applications. I'll erase the OS soon to make another
installation with new partitions arrangement. On the 2nd round I'll also
make the same installation.

Please advise after installation completed how to read on CVS on the website
to fetch fresh ports and src tree that I need installing further packages
and updating the system. Also how to read about its package management and
how to startup. I expect first to update the system before doing any
further installations and/or customizations. Pointers would be appreciated.
TIA

It is well documented in the handbook, but basically,

install cvsup from ports: /usr/ports/net/cvsup

Then run the cvsup for source and ports.

Then do your buildworld, buildkernel and installkernel stuff
and reboot. Clean up stuff and then do your installworld

Then do the mergemaster-- if this a brand new install that might
might not be needed but won't hurt.

Now you can install all your other ports. They were updated
when you ran the cvsup at the same time as the source if you put
both in your cvsup control file (supfile). Just for clarity, I
name my supfiles after the version I CVSUP to. SO for 6.2 I call
it: supfile62and the contents are as follows.

One other thing, You might want to do all the major operations
inside of a script session in order to capture messages in case
you need to go back and review them. See script(1)

The handbook should get you all else that you need.

Re: CUPS printing problem

 I am having a problem printing from CUPS.  I did a fresh install on 6.2 
 release and cups-1.2.7.  I am trying to configure for an HP1022.  The

 interface.  But, when I try to print a test page, the light on the printer 
 starts flashing but nothing gets printed.  The printer admin page shows 
 the following:
   Description: HP1022

 So, it appears that after I send the job the printer goes into Stopped 
 state.
 I checked the logs, and there is something I don't understand.  It says:
 cupsdAuthorize: No authentication data provided
 What does this mean?  Where do you set authentication?  Is this the cause 
 of the problem, or a symptom of something else?

One thing you need to check is the access rights to the printer device.

The device that you want to print to (e.g. /dev/lpt0) needs to belong to
the cups group (which should exist, along with an unprivileged user
named cups), and that group needs to have read/write access.

If you are using a parallel port printer, add the following to
devfs.conf(5) and reboot, or use chown/chmod to correctly set the values:

  # Give cups printer access
  own lpt0root:cups
  permlpt00660

If you are using for instance a USB printer, you need to add the
following to your ruleset in devfs.rules(5)and reboot, or use
chown/chmod to correctly set the values:

  add path 'ulpt*' mode 0660 group cups

 Hello all,

 I miss,

 I have created an bridge with freebsd 6.2, I have compiled a new

 Someone have an idea for resolve this problem of ping???

 Thanks.

Can you draw out a network diagram, including the bridge, the
interfaces on the bridge, and the IPs?

The output of ifconfig may also be useful.

If you're just targetting FreeBSD = 5.x platforms, your current  
approach is reasonable (assuming you can fix whatever the problem  
is); if you're targetting other platforms such FreeBSD 4, Dfly, OS X,  
or SysV things like Solaris, try installing the libnet port and  
invoke libnet_get_hwaddr().

 In a system that tight for space (for running KDE, anyway), I would

 partition with legitimate data and needing to play games to keep
 everything installed.

 Greg Lehey has been recommending this approach in his books for at
 least a couple of editions now.

This is the approach I take with slackware, since I've never had any problems 
with system hangs/reboots using it. But, what concerns me about this approach 
when using FreeBSD is that I've had spontaneous reboot problems with FreeBSD. 
Although I think I've narrowed the solution down to just not using kernel 
ppp, since I get the reboots using pppd whether or not I've set 
debug.mpsafenet=0 on my system, there may be other issues involved. With 
everything under /, a spontaneous reboot might leave the filesystem corrupted 
and unusable, correct? I cound certainly try it, though, once I know that 
I've taken care of the rebooting issue for good.

You don't need to install cvsup on FreeBSD 6.2 because csup is in the
base system. csup is cvsup rewritten in C rather than Modula-3.  Works
pretty much exactly the same way, reads the same supfiles etc.

Apart from using csup instead of cvsup, the rest of the instructions are
good.

Re: How Do I Surf To My Server?

2007-02-20 Thread Jeffrey Goldberg


On Feb 19, 2007, at 12:57 PM, Drew Jenkins wrote:


From: Jeffrey Goldberg [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Can you tell us more about your home set-up?  Presumably you have
some sort of router doing NAT and DHCP?  Tell us about it.


I had, but perhaps in a different thread, so forgive me for not  
putting it here before. I have DHCP, a satellite dish to which both  
computers are linked.


Drew,

I did see that earlier message, but it's not the information I'm  
seeking.  You say that both computers are linked to a satellite dish,  
but I'm asking for information about what is between your computers  
and the dish.  You should have ethernet cables running from each  
computer to some sort of box.  Can you describe that box for us?  For  
the moment (or for the rest of this message, I will refer to it as   
Box R).


Also another point of confusion is that we may be talking about two  
different DHCP servers.  One of them is at your ISPs offices and  
assigns an IP address (and other stuff) to your home (actually to Box  
R).  It will assign a public IP address like 67.46.93.3 as a non- 
arbitrary example.


The other one (the one that I'm interested in) is on your premises  
and assigns IP addresses to the two machines.  It is what I think Box  
R is.  It will assign addresses like 192.168.1.100 and  
192.168.1.101.  This Box R is what is giving your server an IP  
address.  And that address may change.


You need to give your server a fixed IP address, say 192.168.1.6.   
This  can be done using the sysinstall GUI for network set up.  But  
here is the hitch.   You don't want it to have the same IP address as  
something that Box R might assign.  This is why I want you to look at  
the DHCP configuration on Box R.  Maybe Box R gives out IP addresses  
(DHCP pool) in the range 192.168.1.100-199, or maybe some other  
range.  The IP address that you pick for your server should be on   
the local net, but not in the DHCP pool.


I need more information about box R to be able to tell you how to log  
on to it.
On your local network it probably (but not necessarily) has the IP  
address 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 all depending on its default  
settings.  Try pointing a web browser (from one of your two machines)  
to either of those addresses and see if you get anything.  When you  
get the right address you should be prompted for a username and  
password.  We'll need to know more about the Box R to know what the  
password is, but a good first guess is always Username: admin,  
Password: admin.  (of course once you do get into Box R change the  
password to something else).


Please keep in mind that all of this is just diagnostic.  This  
information is not guaranteed to lead me to a solution.  But it will  
help in understanding your network.


If ifconfig isn't the way to do that, could you specify how?  
sysinstall is a GUI, so it'll just ask me a question, or I'll have  
to look on a chart to find what I need, right? Easy, right?


ifconfig (or the GUI sysinstall) will be the way to set the IP  
address of your server.  Nothing that I've said contradicts any of  
the other advice you've received here.  But to pick the right IP  
address it is good to know what Box R's DHCP range is.  Also,  later  
on, it may be that some configuring of Box R will be needed for what  
you are trying to do.


So the advice that you are getting is multi-pronged.  So far most of  
the advice you've had has been in the form of do X and report back  
here so that we know more about your network.


Cheers,

-j
