This server has a P400 RAID controller with 12 SATA disk drives attached to it. The RAID controller is supported in FreeBSD through the ciss driver. The problem happens when i try to use a RAID larger in size to 2 Terabyte, then the install program freezes and the machine reboots (it cannot find the disk). If the array is smaller than 2 Terabytes then there is no problem, the controller detects the disk and i can install FreeBSD on it. I have tried with i386 and AMD64 versions (the server has a Xeon processor supported by AMD64) Any clue on how to solve it? FreeBSD can't be installed on disks larger than 2 TB?

The subject is: Filesystems larger than 2TB I started the thread and from what I can gather you can not have a filesystem greater than 2TB on your boot device. Also you can not use sysinstall to create the partition if it is greater than 2TB. The problem happens when i try to use a RAID larger in size to 2 Terabyte, then the install program freezes and the machine reboots (it cannot find the disk). Split your drives. Make a RAID1 with 2 drives and install / /usr /var /tmp swap The second raid with the rest of the drives you should be able to create the partition manually, not from sysinstall. Any clue on how to solve it? FreeBSD can't be installed on disks larger than 2 TB? As far as I can tell no. As for creating the partition after you have a working system there were two methods mentioned. Was was using newfs against the raw device like newfs -s /dev/da0s2 The other one involves something called GPT, but seems like it is a more difficult method and it also seems like there is ongoing discussion about GPT. I also think, but am not sure, that it will be easier to have partitions greater than 2TB when ZFS is incorporated into the OS. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I rebooted and tried the install again with the same result. At the same place? If so, I'd tend to suspect memory rather than cpu. I'm wondering if it could be hardware, specifically memory. I've never seen a FreeBSD, OpenBSD or Linux (for that matter) hard hang on program compilation apart from hardware problems. Also of particular [..] System configuration is as follows: AMD K6 700mHz 256mb RAM (PC 133) 13gb HDD 700MHz? Please show us the line from your /var/run/dmesg.boot showing the exact cpu and clock. This will also indicate features stepping that should pinpoint the cpu model. From one 4.10 system hereabouts: CPU: AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor (400.91-MHz 586-class CPU) Origin = AuthenticAMD Id = 0x58c Stepping = 12 Features=0x8021bfFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,MCE,CX8,PGE,MMX AMD Features=0x8800SYSCALL,3DNow! real memory = 134152192 (131008K bytes) That's a K6-2, though it doesn't say so there. From memory, the fastest ever K6-2 was ~550MHz, but people did tend to wildly overclock them .. As others have mentioned, K6s don't like running too hot. I nurse two, the 400 and a 450MHz box that run forever as long as the cpu fan is ok. And when they do overheat, they'll freeze, but I've never actually seen one damaged (as opposed to a couple of fried P3s of similar vintage) If you really are running it at 700MHz (at what bus speed setting?) then I'd treat it to a new heat sink with fresh thermal paste and a BIG fan. And sure it's best to run matched-speed memory. Your BIOS probably lets you play with wait states and such, but the basic PCI bus speed might be something weird if you've managed to crank the cpu up to 700MHz ..

I needed to know because I am going to buy it next week. Thank You, please write back. IMO having a specific card supported is kind of a problem, because manufacturers tend to change chip revisions pretty fast, and there are some subtle difference between these revisions that can render the card useless - even if the driver supports the chipset. So make sure you find out what the card is actually based on (atheros, ral, etc.) and look up the manpage for the driver. Find the card and check the revision. If your revision is newer than the latest mentioned one, make sure that you can return the card. Or: Take your laptop with you. I did it when I purchased my D-Link DWL-650 from a big discounter. I loaded all available WLAN drivers into memory (gave a nice for-loop and the laptop lots to do). Afterwards the salespersons handed me one board after the other and I checked the console/syslog wether the board was recognised as a WLAN device. It was great: I figured I could go with a ral-based card, but it turned out to be unstable. Next try (yes, I went there again and we did the procedure all over again) I found the card mentioned above. And I'm really happy with it. It's stable, and the connection quality is really good.

And there is a lot of junk 133 memory out there too. Based on my limited experience, about 60% of the time you can run 100MHz memory at 133MHz. If not you may have to rejumper your bus-speed to 100. If you are further unlucky the board won't have a 7:1 multiplier and you'll be stuck underclocking pretty seriously. What is a 7:1 multiplier? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If so, I'd tend to suspect memory rather than cpu. No it did not stop at the same place. I still suspect memory versus the cpu, especially considering that, apparently, there were several generations of the K6. I didn't know this. For several years, I did not have the time or money to play with hardware and therefore lost touch with much of the hardware that was out there. I'm wondering if it could be hardware, specifically memory. I've never seen a FreeBSD, OpenBSD or Linux (for that matter) hard hang on program compilation apart from hardware problems. Also of particular [..] System configuration is as follows: AMD K6 700mHz 256mb RAM (PC 133) 13gb HDD 700MHz? Please show us the line from your /var/run/dmesg.boot showing the exact cpu and clock. This will also indicate features stepping that should pinpoint the cpu model. From one 4.10 system hereabouts: CPU: AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor (400.91-MHz 586-class CPU) Origin = AuthenticAMD Id = 0x58c Stepping = 12 Features=0x8021bfFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,MCE,CX8,PGE,MMX AMD Features=0x8800SYSCALL,3DNow! real memory = 134152192 (131008K bytes) That's a K6-2, though it doesn't say so there. From memory, the fastest ever K6-2 was ~550MHz, but people did tend to wildly overclock them .. I will provide this info., hopefully tonight when I get home. I'm pretty sure this was never over clocked. It was the secretaries computer of the church I attend. I'm working on remaking the system into a web server as the secretary was just given a laptop. As others have mentioned, K6s don't like running too hot. I nurse two, the 400 and a 450MHz box that run forever as long as the cpu fan is ok. And when they do overheat, they'll freeze, but I've never actually seen one damaged (as opposed to a couple of fried P3s of similar vintage) If you really are running it at 700MHz (at what bus speed setting?) then I'd treat it to a new heat sink with fresh thermal paste and a BIG fan. Ok, sounds good. I'll see what I can find for this CPU. And sure it's best to run matched-speed memory. Your BIOS probably lets you play with wait states and such, but the basic PCI bus speed might be something weird if you've managed to crank the cpu up to 700MHz .. How do wait states relate to memory speed? Please enlighten me. I have an idea, but I'm only theorizing, I'd like to know what it really means. If it's more in depth than one would like to type in a response, sending a link is fine. I learned quite a bit on the Sig 11 links given earlier.

Unexplained crashes, lockups, etc. No doubt, some of the problems are my fault; however I cannot seem to get them corrected. Now, I was wondering how this would work. 1) Download a fresh ISO of FreeBSD-6.2 on to another PC 2) Erase my HDs on the PC presently running FBSD 3) Reformat the HDs 4) Install the fresh copy of FBSD Will that give me a system that I can directly install Xorg-7.2 on to or do I still have to go through the procedure shown in the UPDATING file? Suppose I install Xorg-7.2 doing the actual install of FBSD; will that make any difference? In any case, I would build a new kernel ASAP after the new install. That should work fine, as long as you remember to run mergebase.sh on the new system. It's counterintuitive and won't have much work to do, but it will do useful things like create the /usr/X11R6 - /usr/local symlink and change some defaults in /etc so (e.g.) rc.d and periodic scripts won't run twice. If it's just your ports you're trying to refresh and don't have any worries about your base system, you could also try something like this: 0) Back up your entire system. Also make a note of what packages you have installed (pkg_info /root/pkg-list.txt, for example). 1) Delete ALL ports from your system. I find it's most efficient to do something like this: a) make backups, esp of files in /usr/local/etc b) # pkg_info | awk -F ' ' '{print $1}' | xargs pkg_delete -f For the archives, this works better with xargs -n 1 in place of xargs above. JN c) review remaining files under /usr/X11R6 and /usr/local, if any d) # rm -r /usr/X11R6/* /usr/local/* 2) Update your base system. csup, buildworld, etc. 3) Update your ports tree. portsnap, etc. 4) Run mergebase.sh # sh /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/mergebase.sh 5) Reinstall everything you want installed. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I doubt this could be a hardware related issue although is memory size related. Finally find cause but no idea why -- in kernel configuration, following line causes the problem: options MAXDSIZ=(2097152U*1024) Can anyone explain why this can cause /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 not seen for some program? This is setting aside 2GB for malloc which leaves only 1GB for all of mmap and stack. You probably don't have enough address space to map your binary. This does not quite explain the problem. First of all, the MAXDSIZ is the maximum size for users to set their own datasize limit by 'limit' utility. If user do not set a high limit for datasize, it should not be a problem. UTSL. By default proc0 gets a hard limit (lim_max vs lim_cur) of MAXDSIZ, and the max limit is what the ELF image activator in the kernel uses when figuring out where to mmap the runtime linker: /* * We load the dynamic linker where a userland call * to mmap(0, ...) would put it. The rationale behind this * calculation is that it leaves room for the heap to grow to * its maximum allowed size. */ addr = round_page((vm_offset_t)imgp-proc-p_vmspace-vm_daddr + lim_max(imgp-proc, RLIMIT_DATA)); The second aspect also counters this assumption, for machines that have less than or equal to 1 GB memory, and setting the MAXDISZ = the maximum memory size will not cause such problem. For example, if the physical memory size is 512 MB, and setting MAXDSIZ=(512*1024*1024) will not cause this problem. Or if the physical memory is 1GB, setting MAXDSIZ=(1024*1024*1024) will not cause the problem either. Umm, the amount of physical memory has no bearing on how the virtual address space for userland is laid out. Do you know what virtual memory is and how it works? Your first e-mail seems to contradict this paragraph as in your first e-mail you noted that the physical memory doesn't matter, the solution was to not raise MAXDSIZ higher than 1GB and that is consistent with running out of virtual address space due to MAXDSIZ reserving too much address space for malloc(). -- John Baldwin ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

OpenOffice 2.2 dies under XFCE 4.4
Hi all, all of the sudden, i'm having problems with openoffice. I'm using 2.2, installed from packages downloaded from the official packager. The time to crash crash changes depending on what is done: - Writer seems to work the longest (by a few seconds) - Calc dies right away - the common interface stays on until I open a menu (or close it, if opening didnt crash)... v strange. What may be : Interestingly enough, if I run an XNest session from within my XFCE and log in as another user, also under xfce 4.4, it has no problems at all. Same user, xfce4.4, default X server, OO dies. My account using twm, works fine. (twm under xnest works fine too). I haven't got another gnome-based WM at hand to test with. What is not (i think) : I've built the whole thing locally (sigh) , but the same thing happens. I've tested the locally built package on another machine (also using xfce4.4) and the same thing happens. Both machines have ATI cards and are up to date in all their packages. Both are running somewhat modified kernels based on 6.2-STABLE (with no problems at all kernel-level). I thought it was related to new java libraries (refuted), glibmm update (refuted). I can't think what else has changed between last night and this morning in my computer(s). Everything else in the system(s) is working fine. So I guess I'm onto something...i just don't know what yet :-D I've done a full ktrace -i openoffice.org-2.2.0 and dumped the text version of it at http://www.meijome.net/files/freebsd/oo_20070614 (2 MB compressed, 8 MB uncompressed).

Ethernet Card Limitations to Number of Connections?

A single ethernet card is going to be limited by available bandwidth, and knows nothing about connections. As long as you've got enough bandwidth on the card to handle the traffic, the physical card will be fine. A single IP address is limited to ~65,000 connections due to the nature of IP networks. You can put multiple IPs on a single NIC and increase that if you need to, but configuring it can be a challenge.

Without doing too much flabulous research, I believe the K6 stopped at 300MHz. A 700 would be a K6-III, which would not have the 32MB problem. Flaky and heat-sen- sitive they are indeed. And there is a lot of junk 133 memory out there too. Based on my limited experience, about 60% of the time you can run 100MHz memory at 133MHz. If not you may have to rejumper your bus-speed to 100. If you are further unlucky the board won't have a 7:1 multiplier and you'll be stuck underclocking pretty seriously. What is a 7:1 multiplier? The CPU on basically every x86 machine after the original pentium runs faster than the bus (or memory) speed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front_Side_Bus The board will probably have jumpers (though sometimes boards this old will have bios options) to select Front Side Bus speed (typically 33, 50, 60, 66, 75, 100, 120, and 133MHz on a machine of this age) and a second set of jumpers to select the CPU multiplier. An old K6-III 450MHz I have here uses a 100MHz bus and a 4.5:1 multiplier (which alternately might have been marked 9:2) to obtain the 450MHz CPU speed. A 700MHz CPU on a 100MHz bus would require a 7:1. If it really does have a 133MHz bus, it might be set to something like 5.2:1. In any case, your troubles are likely either bad memory or a too-hot CPU, the second of which might be something as simple as dust or a bad fan bearing. -- -- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Finally find cause but no idea why -- in kernel configuration, following line causes the problem: options MAXDSIZ=(2097152U*1024) Can anyone explain why this can cause /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 not seen for some program? This is setting aside 2GB for malloc which leaves only 1GB for all of mmap and stack. You probably don't have enough address space to map your binary. This does not quite explain the problem. First of all, the MAXDSIZ is the maximum size for users to set their own datas ize limit by 'limit' utility. If user do not set a high limit for datasize, it should not be a pro blem. UTSL. By default proc0 gets a hard limit (lim_max vs lim_cur) of MAXDSIZ, and the max limit is what the ELF image activator in the kernel uses when figuring out where to mmap the runtime linker: /* * We load the dynamic linker where a userland call * to mmap(0, ...) would put it. The rationale behind this * calculation is that it leaves room for the heap to grow to * its maximum allowed size. */ addr = round_page((vm_offset_t)imgp-proc-p_vmspace-vm_daddr + lim_max(imgp-proc, RLIMIT_DATA)); The second aspect also counters this assumption, for machines that have less t han or equal to 1 GB memory, and setting the MAXDISZ = the maximum memory size will not cause such problem. For example, if the physical memory size is 512 MB, and setting MAXDSIZ=(512*1 024*1024) will not cause this problem. Or if the physical memory is 1GB, setting MAXDSIZ =(1024*1024*1024) will not cause the problem either. Umm, the amount of physical memory has no bearing on how the virtual address space for userland is laid out. Do you know what virtual memory is and how it works? Your first e-mail seems to contradict this paragraph as in your first e-mail you noted that the physical memory doesn't matter, the solution was to not raise MAXDSIZ higher than 1GB and that is consistent with running out of virtual address space due to MAXDSIZ reserving too much address space for malloc(). No quite clear on this. Does this mean that the MAXDSIZ cannot exceeed 1GB regardless how many physical memory (say 16 GB) is installed? Then, this is definitiely a software bug. Then, somewhere the following checking is needed: #if (MAXDSIZ 1024 * 1024 * 1024) #undef MAXDSIZ #define MAXDSIZ (1024 * 1024 * 1024) #endif ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The only solution in your case would be to put the disk (array) in a 64bit system, and running fsck from there. FYI, normally one can increase the memory available to processes with the kern.maxdsiz kenv variable, settable in loader.conf. On 32bit FreeBSD it is limited to 4G max, but on 64bit FreeBSD it is virtually unlimited. For example, I have here an AMD64 machine with 1GB memory, but it has a limit of 33GB per process. You can see what the current limit is by running 'limits' and looking at 'datasize'.

An old K6-III 450MHz I have here uses a 100MHz bus and a 4.5:1 multiplier (which alternately might have been marked 9:2) to obtain the 450MHz CPU speed. A 700MHz CPU on a 100MHz bus would require a 7:1. If it really does have a 133MHz bus, it might be set to something like 5.2:1. In any case, your troubles are likely either bad memory or a too-hot CPU, the second of which might be something as simple as dust or a bad fan bearing. -- -- My suspicion is also for the memory. Due to some laziness on my part, I'm going to just swap out the PC 133 stuff with the PC 100 stuff that I have to see if that fixes it.

Re: Apache access log shows these attack requests
Hello; I have not understood what the request for - - meant. Thank you, this as shed a lot of light on it. I have seen that fairly frequently in my Apache logs. But on one of my machines that serves as secondary name server I also had Apache running to serve a place holder site. It was attacked but voluminous request for that, so much so that it was causing Apache to kill processes for lack of memory. The machine does not have a lot of RAM at its disposal, so it was not too surprising. I do not run Apache on this machine, now, because of that. I would like to know how do you disallow 'no referrer' and 'no browser'? Is this a server configuration issue? I have not seen mention of this in texts on Apache, nor the manual. And queries of the Apache mailing list yielded indistinct results. I am not running a proxy on the public server. I have shell and ftp access blocked from out side. I am using php as application server. I am running several machines with FreeBSD 6.0 and 6.2 as web servers. Only one serves my public addresses. I am using Apache 1.3.x. Thanks in advance for guidance. Jeff K 220.137.74.222 - - [12/Jun/2007:02:07:08 +1000] CONNECT msa-mx10.hinet.net:25 HTTP/1.0 403 272 - - 403 = Permission denied.
